Bridges
Bridges are often exposed to high loads and environmental influences. Due to ageing and intensive use, many bridges need to be renovated or rebuilt. We develop conceptual solutions for new construction, renovation and repair that optimally exploit the potential of the structures and meet the requirements for ongoing operation, safety, cost-effectiveness and sustainability. Our experienced civil engineering team designs all types of bridges – from road and railway bridges to urban bridges for pedestrians and cyclists.
Experienced with various bridge construction methods and digital planning
Our bridge construction team works closely with the bridge construction specialists at Basler & Hofmann in Switzerland. Together, our expertise covers all types of bridge construction, from prestressed bridges to steel and steel-concrete composite bridges to wooden bridges. We have gained extensive experience in the use of digital, model-based bridge design and construction using Building Information Modelling (BIM) in major projects in Switzerland and Germany.
