🌟 S6 Koszalin Bypass Bridge Project, Poland It’s been a few months since the successful completion of the S6 Koszalin Bypass bridge, and we're still in awe of the teamwork and excellence demonstrated by our VSL Poland team! 💪 The Koszalin Bypass bridge is part of the critical connection between Gdańsk and Szczecin. VSL played a vital role in bringing this 760-meter-long structure to life! 🔑 Key Milestones: 👉 Incremental Launching Method (ILM): We successfully launched 360 meters of the bridge using ILM equipment, navigating a challenging vertical profile of 3.95%. A total of 13 segments were launched in just six months, allowing the project to stay on schedule. 👉 Balanced Cantilever Method: Over the railway line, 390 meters of the bridge were constructed using this method, achieving a span of up to 130 meters. 👉 Post-Tensioning: VSL also handled the supply and installation of PT systems. A special thanks to our partners - POLBUD - POMORZE Sp. z o.o.-, GDDKiA, Transprojekt Gdański, and Lafrentz Polska Sp. z o.o. - whose collaboration was essential to the success of this challenging project. 👏 Hats off to our VSL teams on site for their dedication and expertise! #Koszalin #BridgeConstruction

Proud of our teams in the Middle East! 🤩 VSL’s crossbow method played a key role in assessing the iconic King Fahd Causeway. Don't miss the update below on this exciting bridge inspection project!
Did you know? As part of the post-tensioning #inspection of the King Fahd Causeway, an iconic 25 km-long series of bridges connecting Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, the VSL teams have implemented the #crossbow method using VSL-specific equipment designed and developed in-house. The crossbow test is key for conducting comprehensive post-tensioning inspection campaigns and assessing the structural integrity of the bridge. This semi-destructive testing method accurately measures the tension of any post-tensioned cable installed in a bridge or PT slab. To do so, concrete must first be chipped away to expose the strand locally and fix it directly onto the device, which then provides clear reporting. VSL’s crossbow equipment contributes to faster and more efficient inspection operations, with highly reliable and accurate output. We extend our gratitude to Egis in the Middle East for placing their trust in this technique and for such a productive collaboration. If you’re interested in learning more about our Crossbow technology and how it could benefit your projects, please don't hesitate to contact our dedicated team Jérémy ARCHIMBAUD #PostTensioning #CivilEngineering #Infrastructure King Fahd Causeway Authority | Egis | VSL International Ltd.

😍 What an exciting achievement for VSL in Hong Kong! Our team has successfully completed a special bridge erection for the future Lok Ma Chau ST01 Road, using an innovative construction solution.💡 🏗 A few weeks ago, the longest span, over 700 tons, was lifted overnight above the busy Fanling Highway. We completed this challenging task with precision, keeping safety a priority and minimizing carbon emissions. 🍃 Our teams had already completed the lifting of the 3 other spans earlier this year. 👉 A first for Hong Kong’s full-span bridge construction: VSL introduced a new DfMA approach, utilizing SPMT and Heavy Lifting technology. It was a success! 👉 Another groundbreaking achievement: the precast segmental viaduct features VSL’s Electrically Isolated Tendons, offering high-quality, long-term monitoring of tendon encapsulation and defect detection. This project is the result of a fruitful collaboration with the Civil Engineering and Development Department (CEDD), Hong Kong SAR Government, AECOM, China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC), Hewson Consulting, Fortress, and VSL International Ltd.. 🎥 Credits: Civil Engineering and Development Department (CEDD), Hong Kong SAR Government #BridgeErection #BridgeConstruction #HongKong #DfMA

What joy and pride! 🤩 Last week, our teams celebrated a major milestone on the HS2 project, being delivered by the Align JV! The final segment of the Colne Valley Viaduct was successfully erected and installed! 🎉 The 3.4km-long viaduct deck, with spans reaching up to 80 metres, is now complete! ➡ This remarkable structure, the longest railway bridge in the UK, stretches gracefully across the Colne Valley in north-west London. Soon, it will carry high-speed trains on the HS2 line, reaching speeds of up to 320 km/h. 🚅 👷♂️ Our VSL teams, with over 100 dedicated staff, have been hard at work on this stunning project over the past three years, overseeing the deck erection and post-tensioning. In total, 1,000 uniquely shaped segments were installed, using the 160-metre long launching girder, "Dominique". 👏 Huge congratulations to our teams for their dedication, passion, and expertise, which have made this incredible achievement possible. Together, we make it happen! 🙂 Align JV Bouygues Travaux Publics 📷 HS2 (High Speed Two) Ltd #HS2 #ColneValleyViaduct #DeckErection #TeamWork #Passion
