Railway bridges are one of the most important structural Monuments that are required for the transportation network in and around the world. Railway Bridges have a great impact on society as they as viewed as a means of territorial connection. With the technology innovation, conventional bridges have been slowly replaced by cost-effective steel composite bridges.

Generally, a railway bridge structure in the natural course of time will undergo the processes of gradual wearing resulting in various structural stresses, thus reducing its overall condition. To keep the bridge serviceable, its overhauling is very crucial. In recent times, it is noticed that steel composite bridges are widely in India as the best alternative to concrete bridges. The reason for which the steel composite bridges are used is because of their ability to adapt their geometry to design constraints. One of the major advantages of using steel composite bridges is because of the greater factor of safety of steel materials used in the making of the Railway Bridge structure. 

Steel bridges are well suited for transit applications due to the high strength and stiffness that steel can provide astruss-type bridges or deck girder bridges. It is noticed that the steel railway bridges are used widely around the world also, in comparison to the concrete structure, because of their abundant advantages like good seismic performance and convenient and fast construction.

Steel railway bridges that are constructed in recent times are built with steel materials, corrosion-resistant coatings, and fabrication techniques that have the potential to be more resilient than the bridges which are built with concrete.

It is the durability of the bridge that is very important and the railway bridges made by the Global Steel Company are regarded as highly durable and top standard. Global Steel Company has the expertise in making heavy structural steel bridges with wide span lengths. They are one of the pioneers in the fabrication and erection of Composite Steel Girders in Telangana, India, and they make them as per the set standards of the Indian Railways.

The steel composite girders are highly effective in reducing the difficulties in site construction. It avoids the cracking problem of concrete cross girders, and the maintenance cost is also effectively reduced. The steel composite girders are unquestionable better than the pre-stressed concrete suspender girder.

To reduce the deflections and increase the strength, the composite steel structure of a bridge is fixed to the standard concrete structure of the deck connecting the road. Railway Steel bridge members are easy to fabricate and are widely used in Railway bridge construction due to their high tensile strength. Global Steel Company is the best Railway Bridge Fabricating Company in the country. Contact us @ info@globalpeb.com.
