Sepa Oy

The SEPA bridge mould system is competitive in a multitude of ways. Our customers have found the system to be a reliable support construction for concrete casts-in-situ bridges and underpasses.

The nail-plate structures enable the support constructions to be statically stiffer and the deflections of the protruding parts smaller than with the traditional structures nailed at the construction site.

The SEPA bridge mould structures are predimensioned for the cast and work loads by the manufacturer, which means that any scaffolding or other structures used during the casting phase can be made lighter and more sensible. The forms of the bridge deck, beams and columns can be implemented in the moulds with great dimensional accuracy.This is the reason why the use of installation ready moulds also makes the work significantly faster and flexible. This also helps in keeping the construction site tidier as, for example, wasted sawn timber is not created as much as before.

During recent years, we have invested strongly in the development of our infrastructural product segment. As a result, we have developed several innovative solutions especially for the design, manufacturing and installation of noise barriers. Along with this development work, the characteristics regarding sound insulation, reflectiveness and absorption have all improved significantly.

As a material, the spruce timber we use to construct our noise barriers is an ecological choice, and it enables a span of up to 6.5 metres. The external cladding can be made in accordance with the customer’s individual needs and wishes.

Sepa’s noise barriers comply with the requirements of the EN14388 standard which includes the service-life requirements set forth by the Finnish Transport Infrastructure Agency. Our noise barriers also have statements by VTT TECHNICAL RESEARCH CENTRE OF FINLAND LTD on the required strengths with regard to wind and ploughing loads.
