Skidding of Steel Bridge<\/h2>\n\n

Location: Alexandria Port, Egypt<\/span>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

2022<\/h2>\n

Year of completion<\/h2>\n\n\n

Fixing steel bridge over two water channels using<\/h2>

skidding method since one side of the bridge is water<\/h2>

and the other side is Railway Bridge as well.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n

Overall Bridge Weight:<\/h2>\n

400-tons<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Overall Bridge Width:<\/h2>\n\n

10.00 m<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Overall Bridge Length:<\/h2>\n\n

60.00 m<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Added Value to the Customer:<\/h2>\n\n

\u00b7 <\/span>A conclusive complete solution for Skidding, Lifting and safety as well as services such as the full design \u2026 etc..<\/p>\n

\u00b7 <\/span>Flexible adaptation to high loads and complex structural geometry.<\/p>\n

\u00b7 <\/span>Detailed working rhythm definition.<\/p>\n

\u00b7 <\/span>Considerable time and cost benefits through the optimized implementation method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Engineering Concept:<\/h2>\n\n

Due to the environmental obstacles, one side of the bridge is water and the other side is a railway bridge. Therefore, to install the 400-tons steel bridge over the two water channels we can use the skidding (sliding) method.<\/p>\n

However, to reach the appropriate installation coordinates using the skidding method, you need first a lateral displacement movement of 2.00m then the main required longitudinal movement begins, which is 60.00 m.<\/p>\n

The bridge will move as a cantilever between temporary supports (Special heavy Steel towers).<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Fast Track Solution:<\/h2>\n\n

\u00b7 <\/span>Combined use of the Skidding System and the Hydraulic Jacking System (jacks capacity up to 150 ton).<\/p>\n

\u00b7 <\/span>With the Skidding System, it is possible to install the Steel Bridge on temporary supports (Special heavy Steel towers) without need for rails. The Bridge is placed on two Teflon-coated skidding tracks and then pushed onto the temporary support by help of the Hydraulic jacking System.<\/p>\n

\u00b7 <\/span>Time and cost savings due to choosing this method (skidding and Hydraulic Jacking) among other options while considering high safety standards.<\/p>\n

\u00b7 <\/span>Increased productivity as a result of effective planning of the work environment at the in addition to the good distribution of tasks, knowing that the working conditions were difficult.<\/p>\n

\u00b7 <\/span>Continuous coordination of all the work processes through a Fast Track project manager on site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
