BG&E has a reputation for excellence in bridge engineering. We apply high technical standards and design innovation to provide cost effective solutions. The quality of our work has been recognised in the many industry awards we have won.
The high standards that BG&E has achieved are a result of the dedication of our team of senior engineers, who have the skill and wide experience to undertake the most challenging and complex bridge projects.
We have designed bridges for road traffic, rail and materials handling in prestressed and reinforced concrete, steel and composite construction. These design skills are complemented by our knowledge of materials technology, through which we have created attractive and durable structures in aggressive environments, such as marine. BG&E's reputation for innovation in bridge design has developed since we introduced incremental launching in Australia in 1984, a method we utilised for four bridges across roads and rail lines along the Tonkin Highway. Conventional thought then was that incremental launching was only for bridges that are at least 200m long. We proved it is a valuable and economical technology for much shorter structures. Since then, we have developed the technique for bridges of all types in complex alignments and profiles, or where difficult circumstances exist, such as over rivers, freeways and operating, electrified rail.
BG&E strongly believes in the construction team's involvement during development of the design. Our best work is where the designers and builders collaborate throughout, from inception of the design to the completion of the works on site. A key focus of our approach to the Design and Construction of bridges is to remain at the forefront of technological development.
