SYSTRA International Bridge Technologies (IBT) is an engineering firm solely dedicated to bridge engineering. We offer specialized engineering services in all facets of bridge design, construction, and maintenance.

We specialize in the design of cable-stayed bridges with composite or post-tensioned precast concrete decks, arch structures, and reinforced concrete bridges constructed using the cantilever method. We are a global leader in the design of elevated structures for use by subways and high-speed trains. We emphasize the importance of prioritizing bridges tailored to site-specific conditions that are constructible and cost-effective without sacrificing elegance. We aim to develop concepts that reduce costs through the use of innovative construction methods and the selection of appropriate, proven materials.

Our bridge projects have been built in the United States, Canada, Panama, Australia, India, Jamaica, Mexico, Taiwan, and in the Middle East. We have offices located in Canada, the United States and the Middle East.

SYSTRA IBT is part of the SYSTRA group, an international consulting and engineering group, a world leader in the design of transport infrastructures.
