Bridge Construction
During the bridge building construction, heavy materials and girders need to be transported from the casting yard to the construction site and erected. The commonly used types of cranes are straddle carrier crane, mobile gantry crane and girder transporter, which have different functions and features to meet the applications in different phases of construction projects.

In bridge construction, heavy materials and girders need to be transported from the casting yard to the construction site and erected. The commonly used types of cranes are straddle carrier crane, mobile gantry crane and girder transporter, which have different functions and features to meet the applications in different phases of construction projects.

Straddle Carrier Crane
Straddle Carrier Crane
Straddle carrier crane, also known as rubber-tire crane, or an all-terrain crane, is essential equipment for lifting and moving concrete girders in casting yard.
The straddle crane can have various span and weight capacities, depending on the size and complexity of the bridge project. They are available in different configurations to accommodate different types of loads, such as long or wide girders, heavy precast segments, or other materials.
Heavy Duty Gantry Crane
Heavy-duty gantry cranes is a kind of rubber gantry crane, the lifting capacity range frome 250 tons-1000 tons.Built with a sturdy and durable structure to withstand the demanding conditions of bridge construction. Usually used for lifting and move various oversize bridge components, such as precast concrete beams, steel girders, formwork, and construction equipment.

Girder Transporter
Girder Transporter
Girder transporter, also known as a bridge girder carrier or a bridge girder transporter, is a specialized vehicle used for the transportation and placement of bridge girders during bridge construction projects. Using a girder transporter for bridge construction can significantly enhance efficiency and safety in handling large and heavy bridge girders. The precise positioning and lifting capabilities of the transporter contribute to the accurate assembly and alignment of bridge structures, facilitating smoother construction processes.
