Construction of superstructures using the balanced cantilever method – fast and dimensionally-accurate

VARIOKIT VBC Balanced Cantilever Carriage

The balanced cantilever system for safe and economic bridge construction

The PERI VARIOKIT solution for balanced cantilever construction is a combination consisting of load-bearing, specially developed system components and VARIOKIT core components to complete the supporting structure.  The combination of standardised and specialist parts results in a cost-effective, partly rentable but sophisticated and capable bridge construction system.

The balanced cantilever equipment can be adapted flexibly to accommodate a wide range of bridge cross-sections and geometries.

VARIOKIT VBC Balanced Cantilever Carriage in action

  • The PERI solution for the cantilever method is a combination of specifically developed system components and VARIOKIT standard parts.
    Reduced construction time

    thanks to concreting sections up to 5.75m long, as well as high load-bearing capacity and integrated hydraulics.

  • For the realization of the motorway bridge near Tarnow, the construction team achieved a 4 to 5 -day cycle thanks to the easy-to-use mechanical solution. At the same time, the requirements regarding the very low tolerances for the variable bridge cross-section could be fulfilled.
    Cost-effective project solutions

    by combining rentable system components based on the VARIOKIT Engineering Construction Kit, project-specific components, and our years of bridge engineering experience and expertise  

  • The combinability of the balanced cantilever equipment with the PERI UP modular scaffold allows – as part of the comprehensive PERI project solution – modular working platforms and access to all working areas. With a minimum of effort for the construction team, the modular scaffolding can easily be connected to VARIOKIT standard components using simple connection means.
    Safe access solutions

    thanks to the integration of VARIOKIT with our PERI UP modular system scaffolding kit.
