Description: For the bridge across the “Neue Fahrt”
an effective span of the clamped construction of 46.00 m at a length of
ca. 56.20 m is reached. It is built as a composite construction, consisting
of a deck of reinforced concrete and steel beams of alternating height,
at intervals of about 2.50m. The longitudinal beams are supported by arched
cross beams.
For the bridge an effective span of the clamped construction is of 68,20
m, in three single spans of 13,60 m, 19,40 m and 30,30 m.
The normal section for the bridges is characterized on one hand by the
row of trusses in longitudinal direction and on the other by the combined
structure consisting of steel trusses and the bridge deck in reinforced
concrete.
