Temporary bridges
krafton® GRP (glass fiber reinforced plastic) bridge deck planks can be used temporarily for various purposes, such as the construction of temporary bicycle paths, terraces, or jetties. They are often used in situations where a fast, durable, and safe solution is required, for example, when replacing existing bridges or at events.
Some examples of temporary applications:
Temporary bicycle or pedestrian bridges:
GRP bridge deck planks can be used to quickly create a crossing, for example, during renovations or at events. An example is the temporary bicycle ramp at the Gerrit Krol Bridge, where the planks were used to provide a safe crossing for cyclists.
Temporary jetties and decking:
GRP bridge deck planks are suitable for constructing temporary jetties or decking, for example, along water or in nature reserves.
Decks and footbridges:
They can also be used for temporary terraces or footbridges, for example, at events or in recreational areas.
Industrial constructions:
In industry, GRP profiles and planks can be used for temporary structures or platforms, where specific properties such as corrosion resistance or electrical resistance are required.
Importantly, krafton® offers a take-back guarantee for its GRP bridge decking planks. This means the planks can be taken back and recycled after use, contributing to the sustainability of the materials.
