ENGINEERING PROJECTS & GLOBAL APPLICATION
Project Name: Municipal Transportation Project in Kiribati
Project Location: Kiribati
Product Used: Double-Single Bailey Bridge (Type 200)
Project Overview: The bridge is assembled using double-single reinforced Type 200 Bailey trusses with a span of 48 meters, designed to meet two-lane traffic requirements. The reinforced Type 200 design ensures a high load-bearing capacity. An intermediate pier and abutments on both banks are installed, with the intermediate pier being a cylindrical steel structure that effectively distributes the bridge load and enhances structural stability under long-span conditions. The bridge body is galvanized for long-lasting corrosion resistance. Serving as a regional river-crossing transportation hub, it accommodates daily traffic such as passenger vehicles and light trucks, acting as a vital link for residents and cargo transportation between the two banks.
