A simple solution!
The Underslung Launching Gantry is a simple solution to support the
precast concrete segments, being made by two almost symmetrical
halves.
Each half includes a main girder and two noses, supported at three
supporting brackets pairs connected to the columns. On the top of the
two main girders travels a gantry crane that perform the segments
assembling. On the main girder inner web outer surface there are
several support beams where the precast segments are supported
awaiting to be adjusted and prestressed.
