Rail Bridge Deck


Australian Rollforming Manufacturers offers two types of Rail Bridge Decking. Our custom made 6.0mm & 8.0mm Australian Rollforming Rail Bridge Decking have been designed as a replacement for traditionally used wooden sleepers.

Australian Rollforming Manufacturers also offers the 8.0mm Lysaght rail bridge deck product that Australian Rollforming Manufacturers obtained with its acquisition of Lysaght Special Sections business in 2003.

Rail Bridge Decking take the form of a splayed top hat section which is cold rollformed in custom lengths, and hot- dip galvanised after production.

Decking lengths are laid and connected side by side to carry the ballast and track. This system of steel bridge decking provides safety and strength with a minimum of dead weight being imposed on the supporting structure.

The Lysaght 8.0mm Rail Bridge Decking provides a suitable profile for a kerb and is easily fastened to Road Bridge Decking. At the end of the kerb sections use an M16 bolt through the kerb, decking and girder.
