Rehabilitation and routine maintenance is a common practice that we all carry out to ensure our possessions are kept running smoothly and at their best, from expensive machinery and equipment to every type of vehicle under the sun – but no upkeep and aftercare are more important than that conducted on public infrastructure.
The Floating Bridge is one of Dubai’s most famous bridges and an engineering marvel. This superstructure was created in just ten months and was designed & built by us here at Waagner Biro. The first-of-its-kind bridge provides crossing over Dubai Creek for approximately 6,000 vehicles an hour across its six lanes.
The art of bridge design and build has evolved through the ages to become a unique and highly-skilled operation mastered by architectural, construction and engineering experts. The best bridge design and build companies in UAE understand the complexities of the process and the acute skills required to create bridges that stand the test of time. As a potential customer, it is just as important to understand the process so you can distinguish between an average bridge design and build company in the UAE and an excellent one.
Qatar, being located in the MENA region, is one of the most arid countries in the world, with long, dry summers and a very scarce annual average rainfall of only 75 millimeters. Wastewater treatment plants are therefore extremely important in Qatar, and the processes used to repurpose wastewater and recycle it back into the environment or municipal water system must be driven by innovation and industry expertise to be successful.
There is little taken more seriously in the UAE than the maintenance of its public and private spaces. Dubai especially prides itself on consistently being named one of the most well-maintained, pristine and cleanest cities in the world.

The development of structural steel as a building material has contributed significantly to the growth of the industrialised world and has helped shape our modern way of life. Without structural steel, the building of railways, bridges and skyscrapers; the opening up of mines, the construction of factories for the manufacture of goods, and the production and transmission of power would not be what it is today. Structural steel companies in Dubai have played a vital role in the development of the iconic infrastructures, such as the Al Maktoum Bridge or the Louvre Abu Dhabi, for which the major cities in the UAE are known today.
On the back of decades of expertise in designing and building bridges, in 1964 Waagner Biro was approached by an Austrian construction firm to work on the Al Maqta Bridge in Abu Dhabi.
It has a total length of approximately 300m was the first landmark bridge in Abu Dhabi and the first solid connection of Abu Dhabi Island with the mainland constructed in 1967. It was also the first project of Waagner Biro Gulf in the Region.
If you’ve ever been aboard a superyacht, you understand the unadulterated joys of modern, luxury seafaring. With new superyacht marinas popping up around the world, and the rise in popularity of sailing and water sports, marine and coastal engineers have had to come up with innovative ways of providing modern docking platforms that meet the requirements of the elite superyacht club. Modern floating pontoon systems offer an ideal solution to expand the capacity of superyacht marinas and provide optimal access without detracting from the natural beauty of the surrounding waters (and superyachts, of course!).
