The MMC Catalogue

The settled MMC family — six models, two categories.

The Platform page describes the architectural possibilities — what the system can be configured as. This page describes the settled products — the named models the SBC programme is built on, ready for manufacture and deployment. Six models today: three viaducts (MMC-VA, MMC-VB, MMC-VC) and three transmission towers (MMC-TA, MMC-TB, MMC-TB Guyed). Together they cover the deployment range from distribution-pole-scale to continental multi-modal corridors.

MMC-V family — viaducts.

Three named viaduct models, scaling from single-leg single-deck (MMC-VC) through dual-leg two-deck (MMC-VB) to dual-leg five-level (MMC-VA). All three share the same foundation, segment family, and Megafactory production line — the differences are vertical scale and topside configuration.

MMC-T family — transmission towers.

Three named transmission tower models built on a single production unit (4m base, 1m top, single 20" L80 13Cr tubular, standard ATS caisson). Together they cover approximately 99.5% of every continental transmission deployment from 132kV sub-transmission to ±1100kV UHVDC.

One platform. One Megafactory. Six models.

All six models share the same foundation system (Anchor Tension System — ATS), the same modular precast segment family, the same drilling rig fleet, and the same Newcastle Megafactory production base. The differences across the family are configuration choices, not architectural ones — leg count, deck count, segment count, topside fitting. The Megafactory produces standard parts; the models are different assemblies of the same parts.

This is what makes the platform productised rather than bespoke. A nation deploying MMC-VC for a maglev passenger spur, then MMC-VB for a freight corridor, then MMC-VA for a continental multi-modal trunk uses the same factory, the same workforce, the same supply chain. The sixth deployment costs less per kilometre than the first because the production base is shared across all of them.

The settled product. The engineering. The deployment.

Each model is described here as a settled product — its specification, dimensions, configuration, and deployment range. The engineering memos that describe how each model works are catalogued in the Library. The deployments where each model is used are catalogued in Projects. Models is "what we make"; Library is "how it works"; Projects is "where it goes."
