Specialty: Proficiency in the design of Spliced Girder Bridges and developing a unique method for optimization of post tension tendon profile. Capitalizing on this expertise, the company provides design of spliced girder bridges as the most economical technique for 40 to 80 meters span and with the greatest span/depth ratio for bridges composed of precast elements. Knowledge and many years of experience and research on the effect of creep, shrinkage, temperature differences and the structure foundation/soil interaction. This enables the company to design long integral bridges, meaning no expansion joints, no elastomer or mechanical bearings- increasing riding quality and reducing significantly maintenance cost. The company designed over 1,000,000 square meters of post-tensioned slabs with bonded and unbonded tendons up to 30 meters clear span. The company provides this very economic and fast construction system, including one and two ways slabs, transfer slabs, large slabs on grade without joints, round and rectangular tanks and pools. I.
