Overhead
Protection
Structures
A modular decking system providing reliable overhead protection above active rail lines and roadways — enabling safe crane operations while keeping transportation services running without interruption.
Built to work directly above what can't stop moving
Overhead protection structures are used where construction work must proceed directly above operating rail lines or roads. The deck acts as a barrier against falling loads, protecting the infrastructure and public below while allowing work to continue on schedule.
Crash decks installed beneath tower cranes operating over active public rail corridors.
Engineered to code, margined for the field
Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code
Incorporates prescribed load conditions, safety factors, fabrication, and installation requirements.
Temporary Shoring & Protective Structures
Governs fabrication and installation requirements for temporary protective works.
Applying these rigorous standards to temporary structures results in inherently conservative design margins.
Why crews spec this system
Modular by design
Adaptable to a wide range of spans and site geometries.
Rated for heavy loads
Handles heavy construction equipment loads, well above standard vehicular traffic demands.
Proven in the field
Used on active infrastructure projects, including rail corridors beneath live crane operations.
