Edge beams
The finishing touch for the bridge
The non-traffic edge formation of bridges made of reinforced or pre-stressed concrete is called Bridge edge-beams. They have to fulfil a wide variety of functions. In addition to protecting the load-bearing bridge structure, they serve to anchor passive protective devices and as a bicycle and/or pedestrian path.
Highlights:
- Increased occupational safety with modern safety concept for safe and fast work
- High horizontal and vertical flexibility for adaptation to the required geometry
Functions of this structural element:
- safeguard traffic on the bridge
- installation of crash barriers
- absorb the impact forces of vehicles straying out of lane
- conceal dimensional inaccuracies of the cantilever arm
