Upper Cut Productions was commissioned by BAM Nuttall and Network Rail to film a rail bridge reconstruction project in Reading, during the Christmas period of 2011.
3 weather-proofed time lapse cameras were installed in various locations to capture the progress of the new bridge construction - they have taken nearly 1/4million photographs over the last 6 months.
Following the short video of the bridge move between 24.12.11 and 28.12.11, this video reveals the full project from the bridge construction to the site clearance after New Year.
This video is best watched at 720p and 'large screen' (but not full screen) for maximum quality.

The bridge movement at the 1:40 mark is jaw dropping.

5 days to replace a bridge in Reading, and get the trains running again! Amazing! Great job!

@rdg2124 12 лет назад

Excellent editing, great the way you captured the "feel" of construction (from someone who has worked it for 28 years). The music is perfect and matches the video sequencing spot-on. I hope Bam & Network Rail realize what a great job you did? Congrats for a great job.

Thats amazing. Isn't it something what we can accomplish with the right planning and tools and man power.

Building that bridge off-site and then lifting it into place is one of the most incredible thing I have ever seen.

@SlobodanStevic 11 лет назад

Awesome video, including the music! Shocked to hear it was composed specifically for this video! Great job!

Man, I thought they were going to move the line to the new bridge. But then they picked up the whole bridge and moved it to the railroad! Cool!!

@nixops 11 лет назад

That was so cool. It is like some sort of mad feeding frenzy of giant orange mechanical birds. Well done! More please :-)

I don’t know how many bridges I have seen that could benefit from this method. I also realize the the planning probably took a year or so, but five days, damn.

How many days did it take to do this task. As the man said if we can get under and lift we can move it. That I believe. Very good video. Thanks

Imagine driving through that little bridge to work for years and then it's just gone. In 4 days it's turned into a giant modern tunnel.

Who knows what those big black boxes that are placed at 2:58 on both sides of the bridge are?

What are the black square things being installed on each side of the bridge during the backfill?

@Windgonner 6 лет назад

Polystyrene foam blocks as a filler instead of dirt. Reduces ground pressure and is more stable in the long run.

@Indiebeatle 12 лет назад

Last drove through the bridge on the 18th of December for the last time. Trouble is with the bridge is because of the 4x4's trying to squeeze through it. Hopefully it will cure the traffic jams

@Windgonner 6 лет назад

Polystyrene foam blocks as a filler instead of dirt. Reduces ground pressure and is more stable in the long run.

@fredygump5578 6 лет назад

Here in the states we call it "geofoam". My guess is they use it to avoid problems of fill dirt settling--the foam blocks don't settle. Their schedule doesn't allow time to carefully pack the soil. This product is also quite handy for making floating foundations over unstable ground. In some cases the foundation is literally floating, relying on the buoyancy of the foam to prevent settling.

@martingilbert356 6 лет назад

I know this scheme well. The blocks were wrapped in a hydrocarbon barrier by the manufacturer before they arrived on site. The blocks themselves were very dense at 1% compressive strength they were around 140kn/m2.

@nomansland8499 4 года назад

Wow

@cen2s2s 8 лет назад

2:58 What are the black blocks behind the abutments? Purpose and material?

@robowen11 8 лет назад

+cen2s2s I would assume they are lightweight foamed concrete blocks. If they used soil it would take weeks / months of compacting to prevent settlement, so I suppose they use foamed concrete blocks instead.
