Prestressed Concrete Girders for Major Bridges

Prestressed Concrete Girders for Major Bridges

Introduction

Prestressed concrete girders are critical structural elements in major bridge construction, providing exceptional strength and durability. At Cephas Infrastructure Pvt. Ltd., we specialize in the design, fabrication, and installation of prestressed concrete girders, ensuring the structural integrity and longevity of bridges that serve vital transportation routes.

Importance of Prestressed Concrete Girders

  • Enhanced Load Capacity: Prestressed concrete girders are engineered to handle substantial loads, making them ideal for major bridges and highways.
  • Reduced Material Use: The prestressing process allows for longer spans and reduced girder sizes, optimizing material usage without compromising strength.
  • Durability: Prestressed concrete is resistant to cracking and environmental factors, leading to lower maintenance costs and extended service life.
