The ConStruct™ Prefabricated Bridge System is a precast concrete product that installs easily and quickly minimizing traffic interruptions.  The ConStruct™ Bridge System is just one of the innovative ideas offered by McCann Concrete Products and Tricon Precast, a Texas based company. 

The ConStruct™ Bridge can be delivered, installed and opened to traffic in one day.  The ConStruct™ composite beams are produced off site, similar to precast concrete beams, and designed for simple span dead and live loads with HS20 loading.  Beams are connected together with transverse post-tension and/or cast in place concrete tie pours. 

ConStruct™ Bridge spans up to 60' are available from McCann. Using a ConStruct™ Bridge on an existing abutment can reduce by up to two-thirds, the installation time and overall cost of a new bridge.

The trapezoidal shape of the galvanized tub girder incorporated into the ConStruct™ beams require no welding or lateral bracing. This reduces the construction time and eliminates the costly fabrication of steel cross frames. Steel weight is reduced by approximately 30% compared to conventional simple span steel girders. 

                                            Setting of Con-Struct beams 

The precast fabrication process of the beam eliminates temperature and shrinkage cracks in the deck, and allows hot dipped galvanizing of the tub girder; offering 50+ years of maintenance free protection. ConStruct™ Bridges can be designed with future expansion in mind.  The fascia beams can be manufactured with "future widening" deck details. 

Pedestrian ConStruct™ Bridges are also available.....

Unlike prefabricated steel framed bridge systems, there is no need to pour a concrete deck after erection.... ConStruct's™ Girders and concrete deck are one unit.
