BEBO Process

1)
Project Consultation – the local CONTECH  Project Consultant evaluates your needs.
2)

Design – using state-of-the-art bridge design procedures, your precast structure is designed to meet any code, loading or geometry requirements.

3)

Manufacture – Quality is assured through controlled conditions for plant-produced concrete products.

4)

Transportation – Arch units arrive on flat-bed trucks ready for installation.

5)Arch Units – Bridge units are lifted off the truck, rotated and set on strip footings, a base slab, or a deep foundation system.
6)

Foundation – Hardwood wedges lock the arch in place on the footing until the keyway is grouted.

7)

Twin-Leaf Arches – Larger twin-leaf arches are joined by the patented BEBO® crown joint.

8)

Joint Seal – Arch units are grouted in the keyway and joints are scaled using a commercial joint wrap.

9)

Wingwalls - Precast headwalls and wingwalls often facilitate an entire structure being set in one day.

10)Backfill – Concrete arch stiffness allows backfill to be placed and compacted quickly.
11)

Finished Bridge – The finished bridge is quickly ready for traffic. Many aesthetic end treatment options are available.
