Bridge refurbishment is urgently required in many places – but closures for building work puts pressure on the surrounding infrastructure. A current project in Luxemburg shows that there is an alternative. The use of the Sandwich Plate System, a composite of steel and a polyurethane core allows refurbishment without holding up the traffic. The Anglo-Canadian company Intelligent Engineering has developed the revolutionary technology with BASF providing the PU system that forms the core of the sandwich. SPS allows replacing conventional construction methods that use concrete or steel.
