Bridge construction refers to the process of building solid structures that span between supports and are designed to carry the loads. Some of the commonly used bridge construction methods include cast-in-situ, precast, balanced cantilever, span by span casting, incremental launching, arch, cable-stayed, and advanced shoring methods. The construction method employed depends on numerous factors, such as the scale of the bridge, the time allowed for construction, site accessibility, material costs, regularity of the span lengths, environmental factors, and engineering constraints. Nowadays, the demand for bridge construction is rapidly escalating across the globe since bridges are widely utilized for transportation purposes.
Bridge Construction Market Trends:
The rising road traffic and the increasing number of vehicles represent the primary factors driving the market growth. Besides this, the growing need for railway bridges due to the expansion of railway networks and the improving focus on public-private partnerships for transport infrastructure development are catalyzing the demand for bridge construction. Additionally, several favorable initiatives undertaken by the governing and non-governing agencies of various nations are positively influencing the market growth. For instance, the Global Infrastructure Hub initiative launched by G20 aims to enhance the delivery of resilient, sustainable, and inclusive infrastructure by collaborating with the public and private sectors. Furthermore, with recent technological advancements, the leading players are focusing on the development of innovative equipment and systems to facilitate faster and cost-efficient bridge construction. Along with this, the introduction of Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil–Integrated Bridge System (GRS–IBS) technology to minimize the bridge construction time and costs is propelling the market growth. Moreover, the expanding construction industry, rapid urbanization, strong economic growth, increasing investments in infrastructure development projects, and growing usage of precast concrete panels are some of the other factors creating a favorable market outlook.
