Thoroughly Tested

MG BRIDGE has been thoroughly tested on over 40 constructed bridges around Europe and Canada, while significantly decreasing total construction costs.

Saves Time And Money

(Not) finding an optimal set of bridge parameters can be both time consuming and costly. Let the computers do this work for you, at a fraction of the cost and time.

Common Bridge Types

Beam girder bridges amounts to 70% of bridges around the world. MG BRIDGE was developed to optimize the design of this bridge type and several sub-types.

Why MG BRIDGE? Robust. Efficient. Affordable.

MG BRIDGE is a service that can help bridge design firms:

  • Check your calculation for prestressing (cable trace and number of cables) using different types of construction methods such as classical formwork, incremental launching method (ILM), or movable scaffolding system (MSS).

And even more for investors & builders:

  • You can get an optimal cable trace (trayectoria) and cable area or number of strands that can make optimal amount of stress in bridge cross section.

Designers nowadays use sophisticated and expensive software for static and dynamic behavior of construction such as RM, Sofistic, STAAD, SAP, and MIDAS civil. They do have a limitation though, for example, one cable trace can make satisfactory stress levels in a bridge deck cross section but you can't tell if this trace is optimal. MG BRIDGE can find optimal cable trace and reduce cable area for bridge using parameters that do not require use of large software solutions for static and dynamic calculation. Using MG BRIDGE you can make robust check and decrease total construction costs and increase your profit.

How does it work? Simple.

We need from you a bridge general arrangement, (longitudinal section and cross section and cable trace) in correlation with national annex scheme of traffic load, prestressing with one side or both, temperature load, representative load combination for which you want superstructure to be calculated, and the allowable compressive and tensile stresses.

If you only need to check the cable trace (route), then submit in addition to the above also the cable trace number of cables and ropes, coefficients of friction (μ) wobble factor. All you need to do is submit your parameters and you will get back your results within 48 hours. Download an example submission.

How reliable are results? 98%

Over the last several years more than 40 bridges were completed that used MG BRIDGE in the design process. MG BRIDGE uses a different approach and calculation process related to theory of concrete structures. It requires significantly fewer input parameters and offers a simpler way to verify your solution and results provided by expensive and sophisticated software where you are required to define numerous parameters. Due to comparative simplicity of MG BRIDGE possibility of error is much lower. During the original design process MG BRIDGE results were overlapping with RM software to beyond 98%.
