The Project
Project Information
Requirements
There were various access requirements on this project, as it involved teams working at height in inaccessible areas. This involved detailed planning and demonstrating how the suspended access would be installed to the underside of the bridge, which spans 100m over water.
In addition to scaffolding, our customer needed a suitable formwork system that could be lifted into confined areas by hand.
Solutions
Over 140 tonnes of PERI UP scaffolding was used on the project to support a range of access requirements, keeping the temporary load of the solution to a minimum throughout each phase. This involved incorporating our lightweight PERI UP 75 Flex Stairs where possible for greater flexibility, with its range of stair lifts accommodating changes in working height throughout the build.
Other systems included birdcage scaffolds with high load capacity to store large amounts of material on opposite sides of the river leading up to the suspended scaffolding and walkway to the underside of the bridge.
Access to material was enhanced by integrating our 40kN-capacity PERI UP loading bays on site, as they provided ideal storage space at the required levels and could be accessed via the main working platforms.
We also supported with 3D planning, which demonstrated how our lightweight DUO formwork, VARIOKIT and scaffolding systems would integrate on this project to create a unified temporary works solution with no clashes throughout the build.
