Suspended bridge at Belgrade Waterfront complex

Location
Belgrade, Serbia
Scaffold system used
Catari US®
Application height
132 m
Located in Serbia, more specifically in Belgrad’s Waterfront, the 40-storey tower, with a total floor area of 47,500 sqm is set to become the biggest building in Serbia.
At 132 m high and completely suspended in the air, this is a small but very complex project. Each bridge is on average 2 m wide and 6 m long, with the highest bridge located at 132 m and the lowest at 118 m.
The project includes a five-star hotel, recreation and sports areas, as well as an observation hall with a panoramic 360-degree view. A local reference for demanding engineering structures, Catari was asked to develop an unusual bridging project that aims to establish connections between a crane and the 168 m high building.
Due to the windy location near the Sava river, safety was a key concern in this project. With support points available due to construction constraints, the ultimate challenge was to find a practical and optimized solution combining the width of the scaffolding with the support points on the crane arms. The bridging was entirely assembled by a trained crew of Catari’s local partner for Serbia, using entirely Catari US®.
