Australian Rollforming Manufacturers’ rail bridge deck is the original Lysaght rail bridge deck product that Australian Rollforming Manufacturers obtained with its acquisition of Lysaght Special Sections business in 2003.
Australian Rollforming Manufacturers’ rail bridge decking takes the form of a splayed top hat section that 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.
