About formtraveller
A formwork that builds the bridge by moving on the bridge itself!
Long span bridges like cable stay and CLC bridges are constructed most efficiently by
balanced cantilever method using form travellers.

What we offer
Detailed engineering services for building a form traveller including:
Design & drawings including shop drawings
Erection methodology
Operation scheme
Our USP - Light weight
𝐹𝑜𝑟𝑚𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑣𝑒𝑙𝑙𝑒𝑟
𝑀𝑎𝑥 . 𝑠𝑒𝑔𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡= 0.3 − 0.4 (depending on box shape)
Formtraveller weight = 30 – 40 Tons for segment weighing 100 Tons
Light weight = Less cost!
More qualities of our design
Faster time cycle – Well designed mechanisms to streamline operations
Easy to operate – Powered by hydraulic jacks for movement & deshuttering
Easy to assemble and dismantle – Modular in nature with bolted connections
Safety of workers – Secured platforms & ladders at all operational areas
Negligible deformation – Rigid members to attain the desired shape of segment
Strong reusability – Made of panels that can be reused in your next project
3D model of formtraveller
Behind the scene
Inspired by international standards of bridge building, this system is an outcome of:
• 4 months of extensive research
• Understanding requirements of potential clients
• Visits to many formtravellers operational in India
• Inputs and reviews by industry experts
• 3D modelling & design automation
Past experience
• Complete engineering of formtraveller for bridge over river Chenab in J & K (tallest CLC bridge
in India)
• Max. weight of segment cast by gantry = 50 Tons
• Weight of gantry = 21 Tons
• Current status of bridge: 80% complete as on Sept 2015
Ganpath bridge, Jammu
