Article Preview

Abstract:

Within the solution of the research project GAČR P105/12/G059 a detailed diagnosis of the stone railway bridge on the railway line Plzeň - Tachov was performed. The bridge is created by two parallel vaulted tubes made from sandstone where a frequented road of second category goes through under one of them and Myslinsky brook flows under the second. The bridge was built approximately in 1978 and in 2006 a reinforced concrete frame structure was built to the bridge portal. Length of both tubes is about 45.5 m, width about 5.7 m, height of the tube above the road is about 6.0 m and above the brook 7.8 m. The arch is made as an annular vault. On the basis of the diagnostic works the structure is evaluated from the point of view of moisture, amount of water soluble salts, strengths of sandstone and there is also a visual observation of a condition of the structure itself performed. In the end there recommendations for a consequent procedure in case of the revitalization are stated.
