| Abstract: |
To improve the navigation on the Juliana Canal, a waterway from the Netherlands to Belgium and France, two bridge crossings had to be raised by over 3.0 m. The raising project required a thorough consideration to the condition of all sub- and superstructures, their behaviour during raising and in raised positions, remaining service life etc. This paper presents the highlights of the project. |
