Concrete bridge transport
Precast concrete bridges are among the heaviest and longest loads moved by lowbed, requiring a configuration that spreads weight over enough axles plus a review of element height on deck, lifting points, and securing before movement.
- Weight and dimension study
- Configuration chosen by load and route
- Lifting and loading coordination
- Bridge and clearance review on the road
Precast concrete beam transport
Concrete beams are long, sensitive elements needing planned support and securing points; the lowbed is chosen after knowing beam length, weight, center of gravity, and the lifting method at pickup and delivery.
- Beam length and weight
- Support points on the trailer
- Lifting plan when available
- Long-load route review
Which lowbed is used for bridge transport?
No single type is always required; the configuration is decided by element weight, dimensions, and route. Multi-axle hydraulic lowbeds are usually the best fit for heavy elements, such as the 8-axle dolly lowbed for very heavy loads and the 10-axle dolly lowbed for loads up to 200 tons after review.
- 8-axle dolly lowbed for very heavy loads
- 10-axle dolly lowbed for loads up to 200 tons after review
- Selection confirmed after weight, dimension, and route review
Moving loads up to 200 tons
Our highest hydraulic configurations plan up to 200 tons after load and route review, including axle weight distribution, permit requirements, escort coordination, and loading and delivery site preparation.
- Axle weight distribution
- Permit review
- Escort coordination when needed
- Loading and delivery site preparation
