Abstract
A method of deploying a modular bridge across a span having a home bank and a far bank wherein a plurality of modular bridge sections are utilized includes providing a launching vehicle with a support for bridge launching. The method employs the steps of booming out a launching rail from the vehicle until the launching rail reaches the far bank and thereafter placing the modular bridge sections on the launching rail in order to form the bridge.
