Tata Steel has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Australia’s InQuik Group to introduce modular bridge technology in India. As per the reports, the collaboration will use InQuik’s prefabricated steel mould system, which is filled with concrete at the site, enabling faster construction compared to conventional bridge-building methods.

Technology for Faster Execution

The modular bridge system uses prefabricated moulds transported to the site, where concrete is poured and set. This reduces the time and machinery required at construction sites. The system is to handle tough terrains and variable climates, making it suitable for a wide range of regions in India.

Remote and Underserved Areas

India continues to face connectivity issues in remote villages and towns. Traditional bridge construction in such areas is often delayed due to logistical challenges. The new modular approach may be deployed in places where transporting heavy construction materials and equipment is difficult.

Part of Tata Steel’s Focus

Tata Steel is increasing its focus on downstream applications of steel beyond raw material supply. The company is working on offering construction-ready solutions that align with national infrastructure projects. This partnership falls under that broader effort.

InQuik Expands to Indian Market

For InQuik, this is its entry into the Indian infrastructure segment. The Australian firm has developed and deployed this bridge system in other regions and is now exploring opportunities in India through this agreement. The aim is to identify suitable locations for initial implementation.

Conclusion

With the MoU in place, Tata Steel and InQuik will begin the groundwork to deploy modular bridges across the country. The system is to offer a quicker alternative to traditional methods, with potential application in areas with limited infrastructure access.
