Standard Steel Portable with Modular Deck Bridges

Standard Steel Portable with Modular Deck Bridges

Our standard portable bridges with modular decks are ideal for crossing areas with limited access or spanning a large area like wetlands. These bridges are excellent for installation on challenging sites or when large equipment is not available. The bridge, arriving in pieces, allows for increased mobility during installation. For bridges ranging from 40′ to 90′, the bridge girder arrives on-site in one piece; for bridges over 100′, the girder arrives in two pieces and is spliced together. As the modular bridge decks arrive in sections of 10’ x 14’, they are easy to transport without requiring a pilot vehicle. On-site assembly is required, but it’s easy to do with our unique, custom-designed locking structure.

If maintenance or replacement is required for any part of the bridge, the timber deck can easily be removed from the steel superstructure and repaired or replaced.

Common uses for the standard steel portable bridge with or without modular decks include:

  • Temporary and permanent road construction 
  • Pipeline crossings
  • Detour bridges
  • Work bridges
  • Multi-span crossings
    • Ideal for standard steel portable with modular decks.
