Strukturas GmbH at Dresdner Brückenbau symposium

Dresden Bridge Building Symposium

Strukturas GmbH has participated at Dresdner Brückenbau symposium 2025. 

The program included topics like:

  • The collapse of the Carola Bridge and its consequences;
  • Measuring instead of estimating – experiences from current structural investigations;
  • Fracture mechanics calculations to determine safe service life intervals for steel railroad bridges;
  • Innovative approaches for structural monitoring in the ASFINAG network;
  • Bridges from a hydraulic engineering perspective;
  • Further development of modular precast solutions in bridge construction;
  • and more.

 

The venue had a hall for participants to have a great networking space.

Therefore Strukturas GmbH managing director Stefan Flachhuber and Strukturas AS managing director Øyvind Karlsen took a possibility to have a booth at symposium hall to meet the visitors. They are happy for all the contacts and interesting conversations.

With their extensive expertise in bridge construction they are are leading our activities in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. 

We would also like to take a chance to invite You to our next big event Bauma2025 exhibition in Munich. We will be there as participants at hall B3.332

Span by span demolition of the bridges using the MSS

Krondorf Demolish first span

Span by span demolition of the bridges using  STRUKTURAS MSS – Movable Scaffolding System.

Contractors Eiffage , Implenia and Arlt Bauunternehmen GmbH are using this demolition method for their client Die Autobahn GmbH.

See the video about the project. For more videos about our projects, visit and subscribe to our Youtube channel  STRUKTURAS YOUTUBE CHANNEL

The demolition of the old bridge with MSS is an effective and safe solution:

– Minimal intervention to existing infrastructure.

– Using MSS for demolition allows the existing highway to remain open throughout all of the demolishing period.

– Moreover MSS allows the existing railway to remain open throughout most of the demolishing period.

– The MSS could be assembled on the ground and later could be lifted with 4 strand jacks.

– After finished demolition MSS could be lowered with 4 strand jacks on the ground for safe and productive MSS dismantling.

– The challenging MSS installation conditions can be carried out by professional site crew from Strukturas.

– The engineering challenge is to avoid an overload of the superstructure during the demolition and to ensure a safe load transfer within the load capacity of the MSS.

– After the demolition this same MSS could also be used for the construction of the bridge deck. This approach saves time and resources, making the construction process more efficient.

Span by span bridge demolition using the MSS

Span by span bridge demolition using MSS

At Raunheim, Mönchhof-Dreieck, 3 level crossing the old viaduct over the A3 and A67 was demolished by Max Wild GmbH.

Strukturas Underslung MSS was assembled behind the abutment and launched forward below the lifted bridge deck.

It was minimal intervention to the traffic on the highway below the deck.

The challenging MSS installation conditions were carried out by a professional site crew from Strukturas.

In order to carry out the demolition work efficiently and safely while the motorways were in use, the 3,200-tonne bridge superstructure was first raised by 5.20 metres and then a 130-metre-long supporting Underslung Movable Scaffolding System was inserted below. As general contractor, Max Wild GmbH took over the complete service for the demolition work at the Mönchhof Triangle and spent six months preparing and planning the actual demolition.

Thanks for good cooperation to our professional client Max Wild GmbH

The demolition of the old bridge with MSS is an effective and safe solution.

Stay tuned for more information about this exciting project!

We will participate as exhibitor at Stand KF17.

Let’s meet and discuss productive and sustainable cast in situ bridge construction methods using:

  • Span by span Movable Scaffolding System – MSS
  • Balanced Cantilever Form Travellers – FT

We make it simple!

This year’s foreign contributions come from the USA and Norway. First out of New Jersey is the new construction of a longer railroad bridge with three extensive steel arches over water, which are assembled with the smallest possible tolerances. Afterwards, a combined infrastructure and urban development project from Miami will be presented, i.a. containing a bridge with a very unique design. The bridge consists of six concrete arches with vertical cables that hold up the bridge decks.

From Norway we then get a presentation of the new Sotra bridge, a roughly 900m long suspension bridge near Bergen, where everything from planning to execution is handled digitally.

Regarding the Swedish projects in this year’s program, we will hear about the extensive renovation of the Tingstad Tunnel that was completed during the year and about the Lilla Lidingö Bridge from an architectural perspective.

Other program items are news and changes in the regulations for bridge construction, insight into a research project at LTH regarding the volume increases that have occurred in civil engineering in recent years and how georadar can be used to check concrete structures.

Elbebrücke underslung MSS relocation

Strukturas MSS Underslung Elbebrucke
Underslung MSS equipped with tower crane 

Elbebrücke underslung MSS relocation in Germany – solution when the tower crane is fixed on MSS – Movable Scaffolding System and moves together during launching boosts span by span construction productivity and saves money.

Complex and sustainable bridge construction by Implenia
Design and build the new A14 Elbe bridge near Wittenberge.

With a total length of 1,100 meters (land and river bridge together), the new Elbe bridge of the A14 near Wittenberge is the longest bridge of the entire A14 northern extension.
Implenia, together with its partners DSD and Stahlbau Niesky, received a 100% evaluation of the technical criteria for the processing of the two planning packages. On the basis of this assessment and the overall economics, the bid of the bidding consortium, which came second in terms of price, was awarded the contract.

Environmental aspects and sustainability play an important role in the planning and construction of the new bridge. The water levels of the Elbe have to be taken into account during construction.
Henning Schrewe, Head of Civil Engineering Germany at Implenia, commented:
“We are delighted to be able to demonstrate our expertise in the planning and execution of challenging bridge projects with this contract. Winning this important contract also testifies to the consistent implementation of Implenia’s strategy of positioning itself as a partner for the realisation of complex major projects.”

Stukturas AS underslung Movable Scaffolding Systems – MSS is equipped with tower crane on it.
During launching the tower crane moves together with MSS.
This is the main cast in situ construction equipment ensuring high productivity and sustainability of Elbe bridge construction.
Stukturas MSS solution ensures continuous bridge construction when water level increases during river floods.

Technical information:

• Bridge max. span length = 50,00 m
• Max. (MSS) span = 41,20 m / max.
• Max. deck weight = 42,70 ton/m
• Cantilever length = 10,00 m
• Width superstructure = 10,50 m
• Height superstructure = 2,10 m
• Min. horizontal radius = 2350 m
• Crossfall = 2,50%
• Max. longitudinal slope = 0,76 %
• Deck geometry = constant
