Fixed Bridge

Fixed bridges are a type of bridge that are designed to be permanently fixed in place. They are commonly used in transportation infrastructure to provide a stable and durable crossing over bodies of water, valleys, or other obstacles.

Fixed bridges are typically constructed using a combination of steel, concrete, and other materials to ensure strength and stability. They are designed to withstand the weight of vehicles, pedestrians, and other loads that may pass over them.

Unlike floating bridges, which are designed to be movable or temporary, fixed bridges are intended to remain in place for long periods of time. They are built to withstand the forces of nature, such as wind, water currents, and seismic activity.

Fixed bridges can vary in design and size depending on the specific requirements of the location and the intended use. They can range from small pedestrian bridges to large highway or railway bridges.

In the supply group of Prefabricated Structures And Scaffolding, fixed bridges are categorized as a type of bridge that is prefabricated or pre-engineered. This means that they are manufactured off-site and then transported to the installation location for assembly. Prefabricated fixed bridges offer advantages such as faster construction time, cost savings, and improved quality control.

Overall, fixed bridges are an important component of transportation infrastructure, providing safe and reliable crossings for vehicles and pedestrians.
