[Renovation Case of Wooden Facilities] Iwaya Park Heian Bridge

Appropriate renovation proposals are possible! Introducing cases where FRP materials have been used for the renovation of truss bridges.

We would like to introduce a renovation case of the "Iwaya Park Heian Bridge (Minamikyushu City, Kagoshima Prefecture)." This is a replacement construction of a wooden bridge spanning the Manose River that flows through the park. There were several dangerous areas due to wood decay, and while repairs and replacements were considered, a lightweight FRP bridge was adopted, which places less burden on the foundation and allows for long-term use. 【Renovation Case】 ■ Renovation Details: Truss Bridge (Width 2.0m × Length 36.0m [2 spans]) ■ Materials Used - Structural Material: Cedar Laminated Wood → FRP VI Box Girder - Decking: Cedar → FRP - Handrail: Cedar → FRP Our company is capable of making appropriate renovation proposals by combining various materials such as steel, aluminum alloys, FRP, recycled wood, and natural wood.
