BRIDGE COMPONENTS

Sway Brace

The Sway Brace is a tension member used in the designated lateral bracing system. It connects specified nodes to help resist distortion of the bridge arrangement under horizontal actions. Attachment positions and rod construction differ between bridge systems, so the component must be matched to its assembly drawing. Where an adjustment mechanism is included, its travel and locking details are part of the product specification rather than assumed features of every wind tie rod.

Product Features

  • Tension load path

    A Bailey bridge wind tie rod participates in a coordinated bracing layout. The paired or diagonal arrangement, end restraint and design force determine the required member and connections.

  • Defined adjustment mechanism

    An adjustable sway brace, where specified, permits the designed length setting through its adjustment assembly. Thread size, engagement and locking requirements must match the approved component details.

  • End fitting verification

    Eye, clevis or other specified end forms must fit the receiving brackets and pins or bolts. Checking these interfaces is as important as checking the rod length.

Fit and Ordering Information
