PERI UP Suspended scaffold for historical steel bridge
The historical steel bridge across the Burlington Canal had to be vastly refurbished and treated with anti-corrosives. The whole, 111 m-long Western side including the scaffolding work had to be done within only 55 days – at the same time the Eastern side remained open for public traffic.
The PERI solution with a suspended scaffold on the basis of the PERI UP Rosett modular scaffold made also use of rentable PERI formwork system components for the cantilevered suspension – such as the MPB 24 aluminium beam. Taking into consideration the three-dimensional lattice frame of the bridge, the Canadian PERI design engineers enabled a quick and safe assembly process – and also made sure that the work area was completely contained so that any kind of water pollution could be excluded.
