Innovative Bridge Building Construction & Design

FDN Group is a leader in innovative infrastructure solutions, with extensive experience in tunnel and bridge construction both in the Netherlands and abroad. What appeals to many clients is our unique combination of technical ingenuity, modular design, and a strong focus on sustainability. Whether it’s pedestrian bridges, high-grade traffic bridges, or modular system bridges: our bridges are designed for long service life, a low CO₂ footprint, and minimal maintenance costs.

What is bridge construction?

What does bridge construction at FDN Group involve?

At FDN, bridge construction encompasses the full process of design, engineering, and realization of bridges for various applications such as roads, railways, footpaths, and cycle paths. We combine smart structural solutions with sustainable material choices, always considering safety, environmental impact, and aesthetics.

Specialized Bridge Construction Services

Custom concrete bridge construction

  • Structural Engineering and Analysis – we use ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) and advanced calculation tools to create slender, maintenance-free structures.
  • Structural Engineering and Analysis – FDN manages the entire process: from site assessment and permit acquisition to execution and delivery.
  • Maintenance and Renovation – Our bridges are designed for a lifespan of at least 100 years; inspections and renovations are based on monitoring data and sensors.

Types of Bridges: From Prefab to Concrete Bridge Construction

What types of bridges do we build?

We construct, among others:

  • Pedestrian and bicycle bridges made of slender UHPC
  • Modular traffic bridges with spans up to approximately 30 metres
  • Cable-stayed bridges and truss structures
  • Prefab and modular system bridges
  • Innovative solutions such as floating bridges or floating bridge segments

Leading the Way in Sustainable Bridge Building

How does FDN incorporate sustainability into bridge construction?

At FDN, sustainable bridge construction is embedded in every phase of the process:

  1. Sustainable materials – such as ultra-high-performance concrete with EPS cores for slender, maintenance-free structures with a low CO₂ footprint
  2. Energy efficiency – construction using HVO-powered machines, electric installations, and options for PV systems on bridges or related facilities
  3. Circular design – modular elements are reusable and replaceable, enabling disassembly and reuse
  4. Ecological integration – bridge designs take biodiversity, ecological values, and landscape integration into account

Our Approach to Bridge Construction Projects

What does a bridge construction project with FDN look like?

Our process includes:

  1. Introduction and site evaluation
  2. Design and engineering (including sustainability strategy)
  3. Permits and stakeholder consultation
  4. Material selection and procurement (CO₂-conscious)
  5. Prefab production and on-site construction
  6. Inspection, monitoring, and handover
