    SUPER-SPAN™ and SUPER-PLATE®

    Large Span and Flexible Design–The Most Widely Used Long-Span System in History. SUPER-SPAN structures utilize MULTI-PLATE plates and special features that allow for a large family of shapes. With spans up to 50 feet, SUPER-SPAN structures are some of the most widely accepted long-span, corrugated steel bridge structures in the world.

    WHY CONTECH START A PROJECT
    结构板迷你ng Portals, Rail Tunnels and Conveyor Enclosures

    Our durable Plate Structures can meet heavy duty demands for industrial or mining applications. MULTI-PLATE round arch shapes are the most widely used structures for aggregate tunnels. Special features such as hopper openings, conveyor supports, bulkheads, escape laterals and elbows to accommodate grade changes and alignment are readily integrated. Plate structures can also be utilized to extend and improve mine entrances, providing protection from falling rocks and debris.

    Plate Bridges for Bridge Replacement

    Plate structures allow highway agencies and municipalities to dramatically reduce construction time and traffic disruptions when replacing our nation’s aging infrastructure. Plate bridges are ideally suited for emergency bridge replacements.

    Structural Plate for Storage Structures and Ammo Bunkers

    Consisting of field bolted galvanized steel plates; MULTI-PLATE has a long history of strength, durability and economy. It is arranged and curved to make a variety of shapes, including round, pipe-arch, arch, and ellipse (horizontal and vertical). BridgeCor's advanced profile and variety of shapes is an ideal solution as well.

    Structural Plate for Grade Separation

    Our structural plate systems, including BridgeCor, MULTI-PLATE, Aluminum Structural Plate and SUPER-SPAN, are used frequently throughout the nation's infrastructure because of its light weight, durability and ease of installation. Structures can be pre-assembled on-site and lifted into place or assembled in place without the need for heavy or specialized equipment.

    Plate Structures for Runway Extensions

    Our Structural Plate products provide strength, durability and construction speed when extending runways and taxiways.

    Structural Plate for Pedestrian and Recreation Traffic Loads

    The many shapes and sizes of structural plate structures, BridgeCor, MULTI-PLATE, Aluminum Structural Plate and SUPER-SPAN, as well as their low cost and ease of installation, make them a mainstay for pedestrian and golf course bridges, overpasses, underpasses, and tunnels.

    Structural Plate for Rehabilitating Bridges and Large Culverts

    Bridges and large culverts can be relined by erecting our plate structures inside existing structures. Or, the new plate structure can be erected outside and threaded into existing openings. Our Plate Structures, including Two-Flange Liner Plate, are delivered to the job site unassembled. The plates and ribs are easily bolted together to form various shapes: round, vertical and horizontal ellipse, pipe-arch, underpass and arch.

    Plate Structures for Culvert, Canals and Enclosures

    Our structural plate products, BridgeCor, MULTI-PLATE, Aluminum Structural Plate and SUPER-SPAN, offer a flexible and strong solution for culverts and enclosing canals and streams.

    Structural Plate for Stream and Wildlife Crossings

    Our Structural Plate products can be used for fish passages and wildlife crossings. The ability of Structural Plate products to span the delineated area reduces the need for permitting and allows for quick installation.

    View Technical Information

    SUPER-PLATE structures are long span structures, similar to the SUPER-SPAN, but with basic plate material consisting of aluminum rather than steel. These structures add both thrust beams and reinforcing ribs to conventional aluminum structural plate to achieve larger sizes. Available shapes include low and high profile arch and horizontal ellipses.

    Shapes include:

    • Low profile arch
    • High profile arch
    • Horizontal ellipse
    • Pear and pear arch

    Benefits of the SUPER-PLATE and SUPER-SPAN Systems:

    • Buried Bridge Structure- Reduces maintenance costs and lowers life cycle costs as there are no bridge deck or joints at the deck/roadway interface.
    • Modular Bridge System- Rapid installation results in reduced overall project costs, delays and detours.
    • Designed “Site Specific”- Meets your site needs in full compliance with AASHTO, ASTM & AREMA design standards for highway and railway use.
    • Easy Site-Adaptability- Flexible layout options to fit within the right-of-way – curve the structure with a stream or adjust for vertical and horizontal clearance requirements.
