Precast Abutments

RigidWall is a precast concrete modular wall system that is ideal for bridge abutments and pedestal walls up to 35 feet in height. The RigidWall system combines the reliability of a conventional cantilevered wall with the cost, speed, and construction advantages of a precast wall. This proven technology saves time and money while improving versatility and durability for a broad spectrum of abutment and retaining wall applications.

Precast Abutments

The precast anchored abutment wall allows shorter abutments and wingwalls to be set on relatively small foundations very quickly. For wall heights less than 20 feet, the patented anchor system resists overturning loads, so the foundation may be designed strictly for bearing loads. This HITEC-reviewed technology has been used on thousands of CON/SPAN® bridge projects as a popular wingwall option.

In addition to the inherent advantages of precast such as quality control, durability, and life cycle costs, the precasting process allows the easy application of a variety of aesthetic and architectural façade treatments. Each abutment is designed site-specific to meet a range of conditions for height, loading, and alignment.
