DESTRUCTIVE TESTING On August 13, 2009, a destructive structural test was conducted at the University of Waterloo Ontario, Canada (UW) Structures lab to determine the maximum load capacity of a Make-A-Bridge® modular bridge system. The testing took place under the supervision of Dr. Scott Walbridge, P.Eng. Alberta, Assistant Professor at the Department of Civil and Environmental (UW). 0,61m (2’) clear width 6,1m (20’) P/3 P/3 P/3 P 1,14m (45’’) 200mm (8’’) The specimen consisted of a 20' long by 2' wide aluminum pony-truss, fabricated using extruded sections and cast joints developed by MAADI...

MAKE-A-BRIDGE® APPLICATIONS Strength. Safety. Endurance. INFRASTRUCTURE THAT ENHANCES SAFETY Modular weld-free Make-A-Bridge ® may be easily cantilevered to existing bridges, as part of bridge renovation projects to provide a safe, economical footbridge for pedestrian and bicycle traffic. Lightweight aluminum Make-A-Bridge® attaches directly to existing bridge piles instead of to the roadway (bridge deck), which is typically too narrow to accommodate safe pedestrian and bike access. A dedicated pathway for pedestrians and cyclists greatly improves safety for Make-A-Bridge® users and allows better...

MAKE-A-BRIDGE® APPLICATIONS Beauty. Strength. Function. INFRASTRUCTURE TO ENHANCE THE LANDSCAPE Pre-fabricated Make-A-Bridge ® modules are easy to install in recreational settings such as parks, golf courses, playgrounds, or nature preserves. Bundled footbridge components are delivered on standard-size palettes to your site and assembled without specialized tools or labor, reducing transportation and installation costs. Interlocking aluminum components form a lightweight, structurally strong footbridge that withstands heavy daily use by pedestrians, bicyclists and golfers using carts in all weather...

MAKE-A-BRIDGE® APPLICATIONS Strength. Reliability. Safety. INFRASTRUCTURE THAT ENHANCES EFFICIENCY Modular aluminum Make-A-Bridge ® gangways provide convenient, secure access for personnel and equipment in industrial plants or manufacturing facilities.
