St Julian’s Viaduct
St Julian’s Viaduct lies within a navigable river which has a tidal range in excess of 12 metres during Spring Tides. The project involved design and installation of a working platform for the preparatory works and repairs that needed to carried out on the structure during all states of the tide.
Kaymac used their experience in the marine environment to provide a solution that would allow sufficient access for the workforce of various contractors to carry out their works. The design was developed so that the original scope of carrying out the works from vessels at certain times through the day when the tides would be accessible could be replaced with a floating pontoon system that would be large enough for the material requirements and that could rise and fall with the tides throughout the day.
