Custom solutions that ship and install easily.
Big R Vehicular Modular Bridges are ideal for transportation and public works applications. Using equipment on hand, local crews can typically place the superstructure in one day – reducing costs and road closure time.
Spans from 4.8 m (16') to over 45.7 m (150') are available in any width. Superstructures can be fabricated with both square and skewed ends to suit any site conditions and can have truss panels added to enhance architecture.

Typical Modular Bridge Section
Modular sections are typically 8' wide for shipping on standard trailers, with module lengths up to 24.3 m (80') long. Lengths greater than 24.3 m (80') will have a field-bolted longitudinal splice. Custom lengths and widths are easily accommodated.
