Application of Compact 100 standard panel bridge:
Single lane: Bridge deck width: 4m.
Span length:
9-60m
The compact 100 panel bridge is a type of bridge system that can be
dissembled and rapidly erected designed by UK. The whole bridge is
welded with high-tensile strength steel. The girder is lightweight
composite panels and the panels are connected by panel connection
pins. The conversion between the parts is easy and they are
lightweight. It is easy to assemble or disassemble and transport
them. It can also be assembled into different forms of panel
bridges according to their span length and transportation
requirement. So, it has been widely applied as a more developed and
guaranteed panel bridges for emergency transportation. It is
suitable for load designs of HS-15, HS-20, HS-25 and pedrail-50
etc.
Another type is the compact 321 panel bridge designed by China
Program Designing Institution of Transport Ministry according to
Chinese codes and local practice based on the Compact 100. Its
design is based on the compact 100 panel bridge. Comparing with the compact 100 panel bridge, the
design, except for minor change of some sizes, are conforming to
the standard of compact 100 panel bridges, so this type of
bridge can also satisfy all the application standards of the
compact 100 panel bridges.
Generally said CB321 and Cb100,Chinese engineers take them as the
same design.
