14 thousand m² of scaffolding for the repair of the bridge over the Rivera de Huesna watercourse, Seville
ULMA has provided scaffolding solutions for the rehabilitation of the bridge over the Rivera de Huesna watercourse, which is located in the municipality of Villanueva del Río y Minas, and houses the railway line from Mérida to Los Rosales.
The project has focused on the repair of the bridge itself, known by the locals as "El puente de hierro" (the iron bridge), since in the past the entire bridge was made of a metal lattice structure, with the exception of the abutments and cutwaters. Subsequently, the concrete arches that make up the bridge today were built.
The project required a specific technical solution, a large amount of material and to adapt to the orography, and to offer the best service to the client, the technical study was carried out with 3D technology in Revit. "3D technology offers a study that is much closer to reality and a much more accurate assembly forecast", specified Sebastián Salvatierra, ULMA's Assembly Coordination Manager.
