Valmont

Urban transport

Valmont works closely with urban transport companies supplying masts and equipment for the electrical supply system for tramways or trolley-buses.

Paris, Clermont Ferrand, Strasbourg, Montpellier, Brussels, Amsterdam, Zurich, Munich, Bern, Salt Lake City, Passadena and many others have placed their trust in Valmont.

Valmont innovates by offering round-conical masts with high thickness and reduced diameter base as well as solutions in cast iron or architectural design.

Valmont France also provides a wide range of masts for the support of cateners for urban transport infrastructures.

Submitted to efforts of from 800 to 4000daN, and limited boom, the ACL mast supports (aerial contact lines) for the tramway can rapidly have imposing dimensions in an urban context. To counteract this problem Valmont France has developed several mast solutions with high thickness galvanized steel offering reduced size at an attractive price.

Innovative and patented solutions, based on the experience and creativity of our engineers, they have been subjected to the most stringent tests which correlate to the hypothesis identified during the calculation phase.

Valmont France is thus able to offer a reduced size solution in whichever form desired (round-conical, City quartz, tube sunk or Mixed).

In addition the round-conical and tube sunk masts also resist the effort irrespective of its direction allowing them to be lighter than masts in H and do not require the orientation of supports when they are installed.
