MAURER supplies expansion joints, bearings, and dampers for bridge and viaduct projects. One of MAURER's global projects in this area is the motor road bridge in Augsburg, Germany.
Maurer managed to complete the replacement of the expansion joints on this bridge in just 57 hours. One of the key auxiliary products used here is the Maurer mobile bridging system. As shown in the image, the expansion joints are covered with these steel mobile bridges, ensuring continuous traffic flow. During the replacement of expansion joints on one part of the bridge, the mobile bridge is raised, and traffic continues on other sections. Thus, all expansion joints can be replaced without stopping traffic.
This solution is especially important for inner-city bridges. Since traffic is not interrupted, there are no traffic jams, and vehicles continue to move in other lanes. It is also important to note that prolonged bridge closures cause significant economic damage, which can be avoided by using this method.
