Technical Parameters

To ensure absolute precision in your engineering calculations and procurement planning, the following table details the exact technical parameters, dimensions, weights, and material grades of the SJ-321 Modular Bailey Bridge components. These standardized metrics guarantee seamless integration and reliable load distribution for your most demanding projects.

Key Features & Highlights

Engineered to resolve the most critical bottlenecks in civil construction and emergency response, this modular bridging system offers a strategic advantage. It transforms impassable geographical barriers into secure, high-traffic corridors with unprecedented speed and reliability.

• Accelerated Deployment: The standardized modular design eliminates the need for complex on-site fabrication. A single span can be fully erected in mere hours, drastically reducing project downtime and labor expenditures.

• Exceptional Structural Rigidity: Constructed from meticulously selected high-strength steel, the framework resists torsion and bending under severe dynamic loads, providing a stable platform for continuous heavy equipment transit.

• Long-Term Asset Reusability: Designed for multiple lifecycles, the bridge can be easily dismantled, transported, and reassembled at new project sites, delivering an outstanding return on investment for large-scale infrastructure developers.

• Minimal Maintenance Requirements: The robust anti-corrosion surface treatment defends against oxidation and environmental degradation, ensuring the bridge remains fully operational with only basic routine visual inspections.

Comprehensive Engineering & Application Dimensions

Understanding the multifaceted demands of modern infrastructure development, we have engineered this bridging solution to excel across all critical performance metrics. From load-bearing superiority to comprehensive technical support, every dimension is optimized for your operational success.

Core Parameters & Load Capacity

Safety and throughput capacity are the paramount concerns for any heavy-duty crossing. The SJ-321 system is strictly engineered to accommodate a maximum load capacity of up to 30 tons, easily supporting the passage of fully loaded dump trucks, excavators, and emergency response fleets. Its flexible span configuration allows for single-row, double-row, or reinforced setups, ensuring that the structural framework precisely matches the specific rigid load requirements of your site without unnecessary over-engineering.

Material Standards & Durability

The longevity of temporary and permanent infrastructure relies heavily on the metallurgical quality of its components. We utilize premium Q355B high-strength steel for the main structural elements and Q235B for secondary supports, ensuring exceptional tensile strength. The critical load-bearing connections utilize 30CrMnTi high-strength alloy steel pins, providing immense shear resistance. Coupled with a professional anti-corrosion surface treatment, the tactile, weather-resistant finish guarantees a prolonged service life even when exposed to corrosive wetlands, humid river valleys, or abrasive industrial zones.

Modular Design & Assembly Efficiency

In the realm of large-scale development, time is inextricably linked to cost. The genius of the SJ-321 lies in its highly interchangeable, standardized components. The completely modular architecture relies on secure pin and bolt connections (utilizing Carbon Steel 45), entirely eliminating the need for time-consuming, weather-dependent on-site welding. This allows construction crews to utilize cantilever push-out methods for rapid erection. A dedicated team can bridge significant gaps in a fraction of the time required for conventional structures, drastically lowering manual labor costs and accelerating overall project delivery.

Scenario Adaptability & Terrain Application

Geographical unpredictability should never stall your operational progress. This prefabricated steel bridge exhibits extraordinary adaptability across diverse topographies. Whether facilitating emergency disaster relief over washed-out roads, providing temporary access for urban municipal upgrades, or establishing reliable heavy-haul routes in remote mining sectors, the system performs flawlessly. A prime example of its robust capability is its deployment in the Meizhou Bay Cross-Sea Bridge project, where it provided a steadfast steel trestle and platform over expansive, muddy tidal zones during peak pile foundation construction.

First of all, an experienced construction team should be assigned to undertake the erection of the bridge.

We have studied the drawings of the erection site and surrounding area, and conclude that the installation site is spacious and flat,so we recommend the installation procedure as follows:

1. Assemble the bilateral bailey panels to two whole construction, including the lower chord reinforced、horizontal bracing、vertical bracing、male and female end post. every assembling unit is mainly composed by 27 pieces of bailey panel

   Meanwhile, the bridge bearings are installed on the abutment. note that：check the length of the single whole bailey truss and the distance between the bolts of the two side of the river, if not fit , adjust the bolts.

2. Use suitable lorry-mounted crane to lift the two assembling truss unit and place them on the two side abutments.the single combined truss unit is weight about 11tons and 27.4 m length.

3. Install the transom, please refer the video.for the weight of one piece of transom is about not more than 1 ton，so it need a small crane. In order to increase the stability of the structure during the erection, the nearest transom and the farthest transom, as far as possible according to the capacity of the crane, should be installed first,  then for other transoms between them.

4. Install the sway bracing，then pave the first row in width direction of bridge decking on the transoms, including the side and middle bridge decking.

   Meanwhile, install the upper chord reinforced to strengthen the structure,then the crane could move onto the bridge decking to install the following ahead transoms,similar ways like upper procedure to be perform.

5. The rest can be done in the same manner.

6. Final, install the upper chord reinforced、curb、gap plate、handrail、 connective plate and handrail column.
