The ribs are arranged perpendicularly to
the beam and their ends transfer the
loads through a polyester resin bracket
or supporting pile shoes located on the
sides of the beam and at the crown of the
tank.
The superelevation of the supports along
the bridge gives all the modules or
elements a uniform gradient designed for
the surface runoff the cover, in parallel
and perpendicular to the bridge.
Due to the supports placed on the
bridge, stresses are exerted by sections
and are not localised; which all implies a
more enhanced supporting role for the
bridge.
