Définition du marché

Les ponts doivent résister aux mouvements, au rétrécissement, aux activités sismiques, aux changements de température, au rétrécissement, au trafic et autres, c'est pourquoi la construction des ponts et leur conception doivent être réalisées avec précision. La construction des ponts nécessite des joints de dilatation, des appuis de pont et des dispositifs antisismiques afin de construire une infrastructure capable de résister à tout type d'effets indésirables et d'avoir une longue durée de vie. Un appui de pont est un composant structurel d'un pont qui transfère les charges de la superstructure du pont aux éléments de support de l'appui. Les appuis de pont permettent la dilatation thermique et le mouvement du tablier du pont en raison des charges vives, tout en garantissant l'intégrité structurelle du pont. Il existe de nombreux types d'appuis de pont différents, chacun ayant ses propres avantages et inconvénients. Les types d'appuis de pont les plus courants sont les appuis en élastomère, les appuis à pot et les appuis à bascule.

Dynamique du marché des appareils d'appui pour ponts en Europe

Conducteurs

• Croissance du secteur de la construction dans la région européenne

Bridge bearings are extensively used for the construction of bridges. They are typically located between the bridge piers structure and superstructure (bridge deck), playing an important role in the force transmission and accommodation of the deformation caused by thermal expansion and stress due to temperature change and reducing the stress involved by seismic activity. Bridge bearing distributes the weight, motion, and movement in vertical and horizontal directions from the superstructure and transfers the load to the bridge piers and abutments.

The construction industry is one of the most emerging industries that has a major impact on the socio-economic development of any country, both developed and developing. An increase in economic development and growth in infrastructure including highways, railways, bridges, airports, sea ports, buildings, and others are the priority of any nation. Bridge bearings are used mainly for bridge construction as a component of bridges between the bridge structure and superstructure. This helps in providing connectivity and access to employment and social, health, and education services. Roads open up areas, make connectivity between places, and stimulate economic and social development. For that reason, road infrastructure is the most important aspect of all public assets.

• Boost in governmental investments in new infrastructure projects

European government focuses on investment in new infrastructure projects since the infrastructure is directly linked to stabilizing the country's economy. The economy needs reliable infrastructure to connect supply chains and efficiently move goods and services across borders. Infrastructure connects households with metropolitan areas to higher quality opportunities for employment, healthcare and education.

• In Europe, local governments are taking an important role in investment in new infrastructure, accounting for more than half of the total public investment in 2015. Governments are taking importance in boosting the infrastructure as it helps boost economic potential in the short and long term. In the short term, a substantial increase in government spending on labor-intensive infrastructure can stimulate the economy by creating jobs that contribute to the overall development of the country. In the medium and long term, the boost in investment in new infrastructures such as transport like highways, railways, bridges and dams will increase the potential supply capacity of an economy and allow the business to grow and expand, enabling them to extend supply chains, deepen labour and product markets, collaborate, innovation and attract inward investment.

The focus by the governmental body funding and investment in new infrastructure projects and the development of various projects on the construction of many upcoming infrastructures, especially roadways, railways and bridges. Bridge bearing is the major component and material used to construct the bridge for a safe and reliable bridge. The demand for bridge bearing in the market will grow exponentially in the next forecasting period.

Opportunities

•  Offering of tailor made requirements as per requirements by manufacturers

The demand for a tailor or customized product where the different customers require a different choice according to their needs. When we talk about civil engineering infrastructures like bridges, different bridges have different architectural designs. To fulfill the various roles, carry different types of weight, and obtain a bearing of various sizes and complexities, various bridges strongly vary in their appearance, load capacity, structural type elements, construction materials and more. Likewise, every design of the bridge requires a different type of bearing which will fit with the structure of the bridge to have proper efficiency and provide more strength. With the development of technologies, various companies in this sector are moving forward to develop and to full fill the need of the customer. Several companies are coming to the service of providing tailor-made bridge bearing as per the requirement.

Tailor-made or customized bridge bearings can provide the design and manufacturing installation of heavy bespoke mechanical bearings. This solution saves time and money by reducing the number of the interface between supply and construction. It also provides an advantage in the asset preservation and maintenance service, which allows the builders to replicate the same design. This bearing product solution can be customized to meet the most challenging cases. The advancement of technologies and the availability of tailor-made or customized products will allow the customer to get a design of their need. This will act as an opportunity for the market to grow if we take proper attention to providing solutions.

Restraints/Challenges

•  Volatility in raw material prices used in bridge bearings

Raw materials being the backbones of any manufacturing units and when it comes to bridge bearing manufacturing companies dependent in raw materials is no exceptions. Companies are finding hard time in dealing with fluctuating cost of the raw materials and things get worst when followed by a decrease in sales price, however a margin squeeze is inevitable. Highly volatility of raw material cost will greatly endanger a company’s success. Volatility and unstable of raw materials in the Europe market has been widespread due to the rising cost of energy, steel and cement and other raw material used in the manufacturing of bridge bearing. It is expected to increase fluctuation of raw material costs, unforeseen obstacles, and destabilized supply chains are making it difficult for manufacturers to catch up with the market. With suppliers of many raw materials are harder to secure the commodity price of many raw materials fluctuate. It is difficult for the manufacturer to maintain the market price of the market and fluctuation of the product will lead to customer trust issues and let the customer choose another alternative.
