Anticipating and building
the future

This viaduct required 33,000 tonnes of steel. It has a steel box girder structure with an orthotropic deck and is 29 m wide and 1,700 m long, with a maximum span of 210 m. The apron rises to over 150 m above the valley, and was put into place by incremental launching, a process already tried and tested on Millau Viaduct

This 607 m long structure crosses the Saône valley up to 28 m high for its largest pile.

On the Tamarinds Road, Reunion Island, Eiffage Métal built this viaduct’s 288 m x 20 m steel deck across Grande Ravine, 170 m deep.

The bridge spans the River Maine over 136 m, and weighs 720 t. It is supported in the river by two piers built by Eiffage Génie Civil, and will enable the extension of Angers Tram Line B. The Arts et Métiers bridge was designed by architects Lavigne & Chéron.

Eiffage was chosen by French rail network operator RFF in 2011 to finance, design, build and maintain the Brittany - Pays de la Loire high speed line linking Le Mans and Rennes.
All the steel engineering structures along the 182 km of layout were built by Eiffage Métal’s teams.

Faidherbe Bridge in Senegal was built in 1897 to link Saint Louis Island to the African continent, and is now UNESCO World Heritage-listed. The bridge, renovated by Eiffage Métal and Eiffage Sénégal, is 511 m long and comprises 7 steel spans, including one which swings to allow ships to pass. 

Reinforcing the bridge's pillars and reproducing its steel framework identically were a real challenge.

Eiffage's ground-breaking financial and technical choices won us the Millau Viaduct concession in 2001, and enabled us to deliver this emblematic engineering structure in December 2004. The multi-span cable-stayed bridge was designed by British architect Sir Norman Foster and created by French engineer Michel Virlogeux.  It is 343 metres high and 2,460 metres long, comprising 7 concrete piers and a steel deck. 85,000 m3 of concrete and 36,000 tonnes of steel structure were needed to build the viaduct. It took 14 years of preparation and 3 years of construction (2001-2004) to produce the viaduct. All Eiffage's branches were involved,  as were 600 master craftsmen at the height of the project. The bridge was inaugurated on 14 December 2004 by French President Jacques Chirac. In 2006, Eiffage received the International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering's Outstanding Structure Award. The IABSE praised the viaduct for being "an elegant, slender bridge ...constructed using an innovative launching procedure which advanced the state of practice in bridge construction".

The Docks Bridge (Pont des Docks) is a steel highway swing bridge 49.10 m long, 13 m high and 13.30 m wide, weighing 600 tonnes. It was built and inaugurated in 2005.

Within the Athletes' Village, the 140 m long and 16 m wide footbridge over L'Île-Saint-Denis calls on the Group's many skills. Under the supervision of Eiffage Génie Civil teams, the consortium chosen by the Seine-Saint-Denis departmental council is made up of Eiffage Métal for the steel structure, Eiffage Fondations for the piles, bars and injections under each of the three supports, ETMF for the sheet piling, Ævia for the prestressing, AER for operations near the worksite, and Eiffage Énergie Systèmes for the lighting. 

Eiffage Métal and its subsidiaries SEH in Germany (leader) and Iemants in Belgium, in a consortium with HOCHTIEF and Max Bögl, have won the contract to build a bridge over the Rhine in Leverkusen, Germany. The future 2 x 3 lane bridge, located on the A1 freeway, will link Leverkusen to Trier. This project aims to double the capacity of the existing bridge, which has become undersized, and is part of the process of improving the quality of bridges in Germany.

The contract, awarded by Die Autobahn GmbH des Bundes (the company responsible for the German motorway network), covers the construction of a 1,068-meter-long structure consisting of a 689-meter-long cable-stayed steel section and a concrete section. The steel elements, totalling nearly 16,000 tonnes of steel, will be manufactured in the Group's European plants, including the Lauterbourg plant in Alsace, and will be delivered via the Rhine.

Commissioned by SNCF Réseau, the Bezons grade separation project is part of the extension of Eole, the Paris RER line E. It is the most emblematic structure for connecting Eole to the existing SNCF tracks. More than one kilometer long, it includes a 96 m long bowstring topped by an arch 23 m above the deck, an asphalt girder pier, a 350 m long low side girder bridge-rail, connecting structures and a 378 m long footbridge, supported by 10 metal brackets anchored by prestressing to the RAPL piles. All the parts were manufactured in our Lauterboug plant. A project in synergy with the Eiffage Génie Civil teams.

Located in Choisy-le-Roi in the Val-de-Marne department, this footbridge for pedestrians and cyclists is attached to the existing Choisy bridge, crossing the Seine and the RER C tracks. The 190 m long structure, weighing 350 t, has 3 supports in the Seine and was installed by crane, with river navigation and rail traffic interrupted. The project was carried out in synergy with Eiffage Génie Civil, ETMF.

With two piers in the sea instead of six, and dedicated routes for pedestrians and cyclists, Eiffage Métal is working with ARBE to help rebuild the Lékiny Bridge in a sustainable manner, which will provide even greater protection for an ecosystem with exceptional marine biodiversity.
The mixed structure with double metal caissons will cross one of the most beautiful lagoons in the world, the Ouvéa lagoon in New Caledonia, which was classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2008. Thank you to the Loyalty Islands Province / Gemoce for their confidence.
