Abstrait:

In the field of bridge construction and maintenance, the demands on key structural components such as bearings, expansion joints, dampers and shock transmission units are typically considerably more demanding in the case of railway bridges than of road bridges. Loading from rail traffic is generally much higher, including not only vertical loads but also horizontal forces due to braking, acceleration and track curvature, and can give rise to stronger vibrations. Bearings must be designed to resist all such forces and accommodate required movements, expansion joints must be designed to prevent the ingress of ballast stones where appropriate or alternatively to allow railway/tram tracks to pass through at grade, and the need for dampers (shock absorbers) and shock transmission units (lock-up devices) to control the flow of forces through the structure is typically much greater. This subject is explored with examples of suitable technical solutions and of their application.
