The ZB200 100 Ft Bailey Bridge / Double Truss Single Storey (DS) is a portable steel bridge that has been widely used in various fields. Its most important feature is the ability to achieve various spans while maintaining carrying capacity. The components are lightweight and easy to handle, allowing for quick assembly and disassembly with simple tools and manpower.

Bridge Components:

• Panel System: Includes panels, pins, post end, bolt, chord reinforcement, truss bolt and chord bolt
• Deck System: Comprises beam, longitudinal beam, bridge panel, edge material
• Connecting System: Consists of diagonal brace, connecting plate, support frame, and pull bar
• Bridge Base: Made up of bridge seat (support), seat plate, lap plate, lap plate support

The Bailey Bridge is a standard bridge equipment, adopted extensively and the most popular portable bridge system in the world.

Versatile Applications:

• Temporary Bridges
• Emergency Bridges
• Fixed Bridges
• Suspension bridges of varied span

The bridge requires no special tools or heavy equipment for construction. The elements are small enough to be carried in, yet strong enough to carry heavy loads. It is considered a great example of military engineering. The pre-arch method is used to additionally cut down mid-span and vertical deflection to a larger degree.

The Bailey bridge has been widely used around the world, both in military and civilian applications. Its versatility, rapid assembly, and cost-effectiveness have made it a popular choice for emergency bridge construction and infrastructure development projects.

Main applications include:

• Setting up single-span temporary bridges
• Ensuring passage for vehicles with crawler load of 500KN and tire load below 300KN (axial pressure of 130KN)
• Crossing rivers, broken bridges, gullies and other obstacles
• Repairing damaged bridges
• Building construction towers, supporting frames, gantry frames and other assembled steel structures
