The project where Moldtech is taking part is the construction of the new Patullo Bridge over the Fraser River, in the Vancouver metropolitan area. The new bridge, which replaces the previous one, will have four lanes (two in each direction) for cars and commercial vehicles, separated by a security median.
On this occasion, the 400Tn prestressing system is supplied, designed for the manufacture of parts for the bridge covering. The equipment is designed to work with cable tensioning and destressing equipment with a maximum capacity of 400 tons. The scope of supply includes a 400TN active and passive stressing heads, a hydraulic unit and a cable tensioning equipment. It is used to produce any prestressed element, where the mould itself is capable of withstanding the tensioning efforts.
As global demand continues to grow, Moldtech is poised to continue leading the way with its focus on quality, efficiency and excellence in every project it undertakes.
