- We were commissioned to assemble the bridge, which is completely manufactured by us. This is a project that suits us very well. We provide complete steel deliveries to our customers," explains Aleksander Lundeland, Project Manager at Nordic Steel.
The steel bridge is produced and installed for the AF Group , on behalf of the City of Oslo. The hiking area along the Alna River has been upgraded, and the bridge is located on the hiking trail between Furuset and Oslo.
- "The collaboration has been excellent. There has been good planning right from the start and in the end a great and precise delivery from Nordic Steel," says Njål Bakkeberg, project manager at AF Byggfornyelse.
The steel bridge was put into production at Nordic Steel in January. It is made of carbon steel and welded together in one piece. The bridge is 17.1 meters long and weighs almost 13 tons.
- After production was completed, the bridge was surface treated in corrosion class C5, to withstand a very corrosive environment along the Alna River in Oslo, Lundeland says.
The bridge was transported by special transport from Bryne to Oslo. There, Nordic Steel's installation department was ready and everything worked so well that the installation was completed in just a few hours.
- Good planning and good preparation meant that the task of installing the bridge over the river went very well, says Lundeland.
Torjus Ulsaker is head of Nordic Steel in Oslo. He emphasizes the strength of Nordic Steel as a complete steel supplier.
- This means that we can deliver even better to customers. We can deliver everything in steel processing and can carry out the assembly in the end. For customers, we help to find solutions, tailored to each project.
