A NEW TYPE OF PREFABRICATED HEAVY-DUTY LONG-SPAN BRIDGE

NOUVEAU TYPE DE PONTS LOURDS DEMONTABLES DE GRANDES PORTEES

After the SKR-6 bridge (Schaper-Krupp-Reichsbahn bridge, width of sections: 6 m), a new type of material, called SKB, has been designed to be used, first of all, for rail bridges, secondly, for road bridges, and lastly, for medium and long-span combined rail/road bridges. The author lists the many requirements with which this material must comply. With the help of diagrams, he gives details of the structure of SKB bridges in general, with special reference to the decks and flooring of rail or combined road-rail bridges; finally, he describes how these bridges are erected. The text is assorted with 10 diagrams and black and white photos; it also includes various bibliographical data.
