Abstract:

Network arches are light, elegant and economical bridges. They will normally have no dangerous vibrations due to wind. Light steel skeletons with tubular arches can be used when erecting network arches. Before the concrete tie is cast, the arches are filled with concrete. Polymer threads under the tie can be used for counteracting deflections and strengthening concrete ties.
