Taxiway Bridges and Runway Extensions

Taxiway Bridges and Runway Extensions

Airport runway extension projects turn to plate and precast solutions to accommodate aircraft loading requirements. These structures offer a number of advantages to airport designers who need fast installation with the ability to support aircraft loading.

Precast Structures for Taxiway Bridges and Runway Extensions

Precast Taxiway BridgeSpecifying CON/SPAN and BEBO bridges and underground structures for airport applications offers a number of advantages for airport designers. Fast installation shortens work schedules and disruptions, while the large load-carrying capacity of their arch is perfectly suited for high-load airport applications. CON/SPAN bridges have been used for airport taxiway underpasses and overpasses (easily bearing 747s, Antanov 225, and other heavy aircraft), runway extensions, as well as glycol storage tanks for de-icing solvents and tunnels for baggage tugs.
