Introduction:

Pedestrian bridges or footbridge has mainly a purpose that allows people to walk over the bridge. The aesthetic considering harmony with the surrounding environment is an important factor in this type of bridge. Since that, the shape of the bridge is getting slender and aesthetic. And also the footbridge generally has a narrow carriageway and lightweight itself. Those characteristics make a high possibility happen the vibration on the bridge. Especially, if the frequency of walking is equal to the natural frequency of the bridge, it makes resonance phenomena. This resonance phenomenon causes a higher amplitude of vibration, which can influence the safety of pedestrians.

Features:

• Extremely simple and robust erection concept allow for exceptionally quick construction
• Short training period for personnel
• Modular construction enables the simple adaptation to different spans, road widths and volumes of traffic.
• Very lightweight components
• Simplified logistic processes
• Use of fully standardized panels
• High-strength steel and a system height of 2.15 metres gives a high load capacity
• All components are galvanized to protect against corrosion
• Welds are all-round welds which make them water-tight
• If warehoused, spans of up to 80 meters can be delivered and erected within days to respond to emergencies and disasters.

Types of Pedestrian Bridges

Understanding the different structural bridge types will help make sure the bridge fulfills its purpose.

Below are the 3 most common types of pedestrian bridges.

1 – Truss Bridges

Truss bridges can be built in almost any type of landscape and can range in size from 30 feet to 200 feet. Their design can accommodate pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles. Truss bridges are an ideal solution for long-span bridges.

2 – Beam Bridges

Beam bridges, also known as girders, are ideal for shorter-span bridges. A side railing/handrail isn’t structurally necessary for a beam bridge. You can add a rail for safety or aesthetic purposes.

3-Suspension Bridges

• Suspension bridges are long-span bridges and require significant design and construction resources. These types of bridges usually take a few years to plan and build.
