Accelerated Bridge Construction using Magnelis® Steel

ArcelorMittal – Luxembourg

• InQuik accelerates global bridge construction internationally with its revolutionary, standardized, and pre-certified solution. The system enables mass production and easy transport of single- to multi-span bridges worldwide, offering a fast,
  resilient, low-risk, and cost-effective construction method.
• The installation process is notably quicker, lightweight components are easily delivered onsite, placed into position, and subsequently filled with concrete. A small crane and a few days of work suffice for bridge completion using basic labor skills.
• The InQuik system employs more steel compared to traditional reinforced concrete bridges. Despite this increased steel usage, the bridges remain cost-effective due to their prefabricated nature. This financial advantage is primarily attributed to reduced installation time and labor requirements, diminished risk factors, and decreased crane usage. In essence,
  the InQuik system is a long-lasting bridge solution that represents a pioneering approach to bridge construction, combining efficiency, innovation, resilience and significant cost benefits for the community.
