Flying Portable Floating Bridge Panel Procurement from Road and Highway Bridge Administration

Description of Portable Floating Bridge Panel

The portable floating bridge, also known as pontoon bridge, uses floats or shallow-draft boats to support a continuous deck for pedestrian and vehicle travel. The buoyancy of the supports limits the maximum load they can carry. Most floating bridges are temporary, used in wartime and civil emergencies. Permanent floating bridges are useful for sheltered water-crossings where it is not considered economically feasible to suspend a bridge from anchored piers. Such bridges can require a section that is elevated, or can be raised or removed, to allow waterborne traffic to pass.

Specification of Portable Floating Bridge Panel

Application

Floating bridges have already been used for several decades to bridge small or large waters. Whether for pedestrians, vehicles or materials transport, the load-bearing capacity, flexibility, variability and safety of the modern rent a float pontoon bridges convince time and time again. it is assembled by standard bailey steel panel 3m each section.

Advantage

Portable Floating bridges or mobile pontoon bridges are quick and cheap to build, can be extended using a modular system, boast a very high load-bearing capacity, resistant to weathering and maintenance-free. Therefore they can also be used in the long-term, but can also be disassembled fast if required.

How are floating bridges constructed?
Individual bridge pontoons are usually built on dry land next to a waterway, then floated and towed like barges to the bridge site. They are connected to grounded approach structures on each end, starting at the edge of the floating structure and then pieced together toward the eventual bridge’s center. The pontoons are held in place by enormous steel cables generally hundreds of feet long that are connected to anchors buried deep in the lakebed.

Our company

Our experienced team is focused on your steel bridge project's success, from start to finish. Our proven ability to identify and overcome design inconsistencies, potential problems with erection, and shipping obstacles results in the fabrication of structural steel that is right the first time, helping you avoid costly construction delays.

Proper project coordination and efficient delivery of the structural steel to your bridge project is a key factor in its ultimate success. This is what gives us the leading edge.

From material purchase and tracing, planning compilation, drawing detailing, production arrangement, quality inspection, to on-going painting, packing and delivering, we have separated department to strictly control process, quality and traceability, so that the perfect Bailey/Belay/Baley Bridge can be made.

Finally we would like to emphasize that not like other companies, nearly all machining parts and mechanical accessories are manufactured in our own shop as we have so many wonderful machines and workers inside. In this way, the quality, cost and delivery time can be ensured which eliminates other exterior factors’ influence.
