nebt beams

function

Quebec bridges and viaducts are constructed using NEBT (New England Bulb Tee) prestressed girders prefabricated for optimum strength and low maintenance.

ATTRIBUTes

Manufactured in the factory according to very high requirements and control measures, the beams benefit from a prestressed and passive mixed reinforcement. Post-tension can also be added to increase the sizes of the parts and their bearing surfaces, or to connect them to each other. They are designed for high resistance in all respects. Pre-stressed beams can reach up to 150-foot (45-meter) spans.

specific aspects

NEBT beams are manufactured according to the standards of the Quebec Ministry of Transportation. A mix of raw and galvanized reinforcements is integrated to the concrete depending on the exposure of the components to the environmental elements. A surface finish is also required as a barrier against surface water aggressions.

benefits

Quality, high-performance concrete with a lifespan 100% to 200% higher than conventional cast-in-place concrete requiring less maintenance than other technologies. Quick setup.
