The Project
Impressions from the project process
With some supplementary system components, the VARIOKIT engineering construction kit can also be used for the balanced cantilever construction method. For the construction of the motorway bridge near Tarnow, the construction crew achieved a 4 to 5-day cycle thanks to the easy to use, mechanical solution. At the same time, the high requirements concerning the very small tolerances for the variable bridge cross-sections could be fulfilled.
For moving to the next section by means of hydraulic drive cylinders, the construction team only required 2 hours.
The VARIOKIT engineering construction kit guaranteed maximum adaptability for the wide range of bridge cross-sections.

The PERI cantilevered construction solution provided us with many advantages: fast realization due to the well thought-out and easy handling as well as compliance with the required tolerances thanks to the practical formwork adjustment which allowed very accurate construction of the webs. In addition, the compatibility with PERI UP facilitated safe access means and working areas without any extra time and effort - indispensable for the execution of such a project.
