Case Studies & Reports
Expansion Joint Opens Horizontally in the Middle of the Bridge
The new Clyde Crossing in Glasgow is a double swing bridge that opens at the centre, thanks in part to the special expansion joint from MAURER (Type DS 4 HL). With its unique hydraulic system, it can control ... [more]
Huge Spherical Bearings with 120 MN Superimposed Load
At the Weißenthurm-Neuwied bridge over the river Rhine, the worn PTFE pot bearings were replaced with spherical bearings equipped with the special sliding material MSM®. The challenge was their size: With a diameter of 2.4 m and weighing ... [more]
Beautiful Bridge under Monitoring
