“Versatility is what makes the BEBO System so attractive for a multitude of applications”

CONCRETE BACKFILLED ARCH STRUCTURES

3

The E-Series

• 78 elliptical shapes - spans of

3.6 to 25.5 metres

• single and twin leaf precast

elements

• standard overfill heights of 0.4

to 4.5 metres

• dedicated designs for up to 15

metres of overfill for spans up

to 7.3 metres

• dedicated designs for up to 6.0

metres of overfill for spans over

7.3 metres

• most economical shape for the

majority of applications

The C-Series

• 37 circular shapes - spans of

9.1 to 16.5 metres

• twin leaf precast elements

• standard overfill heights of 0.4

to 6.0 metres

• dedicated designs for up to 12

metres overfill

• optimized high overfill

elements and foundations

The T-Series

• shallow arch shapes: span to rise

ratios up to 10:1

• any span between 7 and 31

metres

• ideal for low overfill applications.

BEBO History and Application• BEBO arch development started with the first full size test in Switzerland

in 1965.

• The BEBO arch capitalizes on soil-structure-interaction between the

reinforced concrete arch/foundations and the surrounding fill.

• The first BEBO structures were installed in 1966 and are still in excellent

shape.

• Experience shows that overfilled reinforced

concrete arch bridges are extremely durable

and require little maintenance.

BEBO’s experience over many decades and countless applications instills

confidence.”
