Kiewit – Flatiron JV have entrusted DEAL with the supply of all special equipment required in connection with the construction of the Port Mann Bridge in Vancouver (Canada).
A new cable-stayed bridge with 470 m span will replace the existing Trans-Canada Highway steel framed bridge over the Fraser River.
DEAL’s scope of supply includes among others 3 movable formwork for span-by-span segments (of which 2 for typical segments and one for pile-head segments), 2 movable formwork for cantilever segments, one wheeled gantry crane for moving and stocking segments, one “combo” type launching truss for the erection of access viaducts, and 2 twin lifting frames for the erection of the steel components of the cable-stayed bridge.
Deliveries, worth in total CAD 11.5 million, were completed in 2009 with the exception of the lifting frames, which are due for delivery by August 2010.
