Pilosio flies high with Flydeck

The Flydeck system from Pilosio simplifies and speeds up the assembly of suspended scaffolding and structures more safely.Importantly, because it is an under-bridge suspended system, there is no need to stop bridge traffic or close lanes. The system consists of 25cm or 45cm aluminium or steel lattice girders connected by patented pins and spring pins.

The girders are installed using the Flyrail rail. The cantilevered girders of the Flydeck surface are supported by the Flyrail rail, while the operator arranges the surface and anchors it in full safety.Loading capacity is up to 150kg/m² with tie-rods every 6m² and loading capacity up to 300kg/m² with tie-rods every 4m². The result is a perfectly horizontal plane for workers in any situation where a suspended solution is needed.

Furthermore, with the use of the Flyrail beam for mounting the Flydeck table, work can be undertaken without difficulty and in complete safety. With this solution, Pilosia says that pillars and pier-caps can be encircled and continued in the next span.

Importantly, there is no limitation in width, length or load capacity. The system is modular and uses beams and scaffolding decks of any make, model, shape and size.

    Three years ago a welder’s cut halved Canada’s old Port Mann Bridge. David Arminas reports from the banks of the Fraser River. By the time this issue of World Highways reaches you, one of Canada’s iconic steel arch bridges will be a shadow of its former self. It’s been a three-year demolition job since the first cut across the deck of the old Port Mann Bridge just outside the city of Vancouver on Canada’s Pacific coast. A new 10-lane 2.2km Port Mann Bridge opened in 2012 (see box). It runs parallel to the o

Tourists in San Francisco sometimes mix up their bridges, identifying as the famous Golden Gate, the double suspension bridge which runs across the wide San Francisco Bay. These serially linked bridges in fact form the Bay Bridge east to Oakland whereas

    A team of Greek and German PERI engineers have developed a comprehensive formwork and scaffolding solution for the T4 bridge on the A7 motorway in Greece. The 160km long A7 connects Kalamata in the south to Corinth in the northwest of the Peloponnese peninsula. On one stretch of the motorway a 390m long arched bridge – known as T4 – is being used to close the gap between Paradisia and Tsakona. Set for completion in early 2014, two-thirds of the 22m wide bridge superstructure will be suspended on a steel arc
