Ulma Construction
Construction methods that contribute to improve safety and efficiency on site
The combination of two construction methods known as incremental launching and balanced cantilever method used on the ES-119 viaduct, a vital link on the most important route in Pomerania, Poland, has led to increased efficiency and reduced manpower.

The viaduct, consisting of two independent decks, will be part of the nearly 400km-long expressway S6, which connects the largest cities in northern Poland: Szczecin, Koszalin, Slupsk, Gdynia and Gdarísk.
The efficiency of the incremental launching and balanced cantilever method is best demonstrated in the construction of viaducts with large spans and difficult terrain. ULMA has extensive experience in this type of construction method, which provides an advantage for the construction companies by ensuring on-site safety and good performance, while reducing the manpower requirements for assembly and formwork operations.
