Scaffold-free cantilever formwork for steel composite and precast concrete bridges

VARIOKIT VCB Cantilever Bracket

Scaffold-free cantilever formwork for steel composite and precast concrete bridges

The VARIOKIT cantilever bracket VCB helps with the fabrication of bridge superstructures built according to the steel composite or semi-finished concrete element method. It is permanently fixed to the bridge structure and is moved by crane. Its main fields of application are usually bridges with a length up to 150 m, since a mobile solution is often not necessary in this case. 

The completion of the VARIOKIT construction kit with some few anchoring parts leads to rentable solutions for many different applications. For example, the anchoring can be either operated from below or from above. Following the VARIOKIT principle, the construction components can be optimally loaded due to the selection of the influence width, with the aim of always finding the most cost-effective solution.

VARIOKIT VCB Cantilever Bracket in action

  • Both for short crossings for railway, highway or a side roads, but also in case of large required material quantities, the cantilever bracket offers cost-effective and efficient solutions. Decisive advantages are the fast assembly, the low own weight and the mounting with standard anchoring material.
    Vast range of applications

    The bracket can be individually adjusted to the cantilever geometry.

  • GT 24 wooden lattice girders transfer the loads into the formwork units and allow large spans with minimal deflection.
    Simple attachment

    The cantilever bracket can be attached without penetrating the carriageways slab.

  • The VCB Cantilever Bracket is the construction kit solution for the realization of cantilevers on bridges.
    Low own weight

    The lightweight formwork units make fast and easy moving to the next concreting section possible with a crane.
