Cable Stay Pylon Access Platforms
This project is one of many construction aids required and supplied to one of our large civil construction customers for use on a cable-stayed bridge project. The access platforms provide a safe working area for the cable connection points at the bridge pylons. The contractor provided engineered drawings of their design for the fabricated structural steel platforms, railings, and support frames to F&M MAFCO. We then developed detailed fabrication shop drawings with CAD software. These drawings are used by our fabrication shop, heavy equipment department, paint shop, and logistics department to deliver a turn-key product to our customer at their site, requiring no additional work from our customer. The custom fabricated projects we do are handled by certified welders and heavy equipment professionals in-house to ensure top-quality work that our customers have come to expect.
The attached photos show a 3-D rendering developed by our CAD detailer as well as the platforms erected on the site. F&M MAFCO has a full steel fabrication shop, prep and paint facility and workforce to complete most any assembly needs of our customers. To learn more about our custom fabrication capabilities, contact our fabrication experts to find out how we can deliver essential parts to your project.
