INTRODUCTION

Nordbro are the sole distributor of the Unibridge system in the Nordic and Baltic region. Unibridge is designed and manufactured by Matière SAS, a leading supplier of steel and concrete constructions. Unibridge is a modern pre-designed modular steel bridge system. It is a simple, robust, and durable structure suitable for use in emergency situations and as a permanent bridge. Comprising of a minimum number of components the Unibridge can be deployed quickly to site and rapidly erected.

Bridges for one lane or more can be built as single or multi-span bridges in clear spans of up to 45m for Eurocode loadings. The bridge is constructed from prefabricated box girders units being 11.4m or 6.1m in length. The box units are pinned together. The girders are connected transversely with spacers which allows for the installation of a steel deck with anti-skid coating or a concrete deck casted in in-situ. The box girders come in three different heights (1m, 1.25m and 1.6m). Span and loading dictates which size of girder to use.
