U.S. Navy Flyover Bridge
Nass Contracting in Joint Venture with Contrack International installed the U.S. Navy Flyover Bridge which was a unique bridge construction effort. Its approach was one of the most cutting edge which included: "build, lift, move and install" and is unlike any bridge installation undertaken in the Middle East.
"The flyover bridge is approximately 122.5m long, 16m wide and 21.4m tall (from ground 27.5m), and is a tied arch cable suspension bridge with a roadway and pedestrian walkway. The 16 meter wide bridge deck is a concrete post tensioned construction. The entire bridge was constructed at an offsite facility about 250 meters away from the permanent location across Prince Khalifa Bin Salman Highway and was moved to be placed at two end piers with highway completely open.
Known as the 'SPMT (Self-propelled Modular Transporter) Bridge Move', a team of experts from Contrack Nass J.V. and Sarens Nass Middle East moved this off-site manufactured bridge weighing 2650 metric tons (with lifting beam 2850 metric tons) from the assembly location to the Prince Khalifa Bin Salman Highway The use of self-propelled modular transporter technology provides the ultimate flexibility and speed in moving and installing bridge structures and reducing construction related impacts to the traveling public as a major priority for the nation's highway program.
NASS proves that conventional bridge construction methods could be replaced in many different circumstances with the SPMT technology to reduce traffic interruptions from months to few hours at bridge construction projects.
