Bridge on the S7 road in Krakow
The Cardinal Franciszek Macharski Bridge is the longest crossing of the Vistula River in Lesser Poland. The crossing consists of two parallel cable-stayed bridges, 706 m and 695,5 m long, each with 3 lanes. The bridge was built by the companies STRABAG and STRABAG Infrastruktura Południe as part of the contract for the Construction of the S7 expressway, section Krakow Przewóz – Krakow Nowa Huta junction.
Many innovative solutions were used in the construction. One of the novelties was the use of metallurgical cements in massive elements. (including dolomite aggregate for concrete in massive elements for bridge structures – first such application in Poland and concrete in massive elements on metallurgical cements. STRABAG is a pioneer here because it is the first construction company to use metallurgical cement to compress massive concrete elements. The load-bearing structure is an equally interesting solution. It is a continuous beam, which in the ballast part consists of a prestressed concrete structure and in the upstream part of a composite structure (main girders and steel cross members).

Scope of implementation:
The possibility of safe work along the entire height of this amazing bridge was ensured thanks to the systems of vertical rail ladders and reliable Trax light B points. It was the best choice in terms of the construction technique used by the contractors. These devices enable safe movement along the bridge structure.
ZTPO Kraków – The Thermal Waste Treatment Plant in Krakow
The eco-incinerator was created as a response to the ecological and energy needs of Krakow as part of the project „Municipal Waste Management Program in Krakow”. It is the latest and most important part of this system; it enables to utilise municipal waste generated by the inhabitants of Krakow and the recovery of energy from it.
The thermal recycling technology is the most mature and environmentally responsible solution to waste. This is confirmed by the many years of European experience in which thermal processing of waste with recovery of energy form the basis of the entire waste management system.
The ECO-INCINERATOR allows to process 220 thousand tons of municipal waste during the year. Approximately 65,000 MWh of electricity and 280,000 MWh of heat are produced as a result of the combustion. The energy obtained by way of the thermal transformation process is largely organic and renewable.
