Ersatzneubau für die Schnettkerbrücke in Dortmund: Bauausführung (Teil 2)

Replacement of the Bridge Schnettkerbrücke in Dortmund: Building of the bridge (part 2).

The replacement of the Bridge Schnettkerbrücke started with the assignment of the construction company Schachtbau Nordhausen GmbH in September 2005. It was quickly to realize, that the building of this technical and optical ambitious bridge was a great challenge for all participants.
The erection had to take place under difficult conditions. The disturbance of road and railroad traffic must be reduced to a minimum. The building of the foundations was very difficult. Besides of the building of the new bridge the old bridge must be deconstructed. The interests of the inhabitants of the urban district Schönau had to be respected, because they were disturbed by the site traffic during the whole construction period.
The following paper describes the technical solutions to execute the complex construction process. For a general description of the bridge see [1].
