Ruukki supplies steel structures for sixth longest bridge in Finland
SSAB’s subsidiary Ruukki Construction is to supply the load-bearing steel structures for the Jännevirta bridge to be built spanning the Saimaa deep water channel at the boundary of Kuopio and the municipality of Siilinjärvi. Ruukki’s delivery also includes installation of the structures. When completed, the Jännevirta bridge will be 560 metres long and 15 metres wide, thus making it the sixth longest bridge in Finland. Ruukki used steel made by SSAB to manufacture the load-bearing steel structures. Photo: Jetro Matilainen “The sheer size of the bridge means the steel structures
