Which is which
_________________________________________
Canal Bridge Magdeburg
Facts and figures
Country:
Germany
Quality:
S355J2G3
Building owner:
Wasserstraßenneubauamt Magdeburg
Length:
918 m
Engineer’s society:
Prof. Hering, Braunschweig
Delivered quantity:
24,000 t
Planning of the steelplate structure:
Dillinger Stahlbau GmbH - DSD -, Saarlouis; Ingenieurbüro HRA, Bochum; Ingenieurbüro Meyer und Schubart
The essential part of the project is Europe's longest aqueduct with a total length of 918 m, which connects the Eastern part of the channel \"Mittellandkanal\" with the Western part of the channel \"Elbe-Havel-Kanal\" across the river Elbe.
This construction, which makes possible direct East-West-traffic independent of the river Elbe for the whole year for motorships and push tows, consist of a 228 m-long main bridge, which is constructed out of three sections (57,1 m/106,2 m/57,1 m) and a 690 m-long approach bridge with 16 sections.
The main bridge is a continuous girder and consists of a through bridge and the two exterior main grider boxes. The main girder boxes are divided into 11 constructional sections with lengths from 13.8 m up to 30 m. The cross-section consists of the upper boom, the bottom boom, the sides of the through bridges as well as the post and diagonals of the framework.
The approach bridge is also constructed as a continous girder of 16 sections with equidistant spans of 42.85 m. The through bottom of the approach is longitudinally oriented as a result of the small spans (7 longitudinal girders). The lateral through sides are reinforced at the upper bord with a box girder, which at the same time is a traffic route.
For the steel construction of the main bridge and the construction of the approach bridge respectively 10,000 t and 14,000 t of heavy plate type S355J2G3 (with acceptance certificate 3.1.C) were used. Concerning the dimensions, plate thicknesses ranging from 10 to 80 mm, widths up to 4,500 mm and lengths up to 28,000 mm were used.
About 6,000 t of the total tonnage were delivered as longitudinally profiled plates. These are plates with a continous variable thickness in the longitudinal direction. The maximum difference in thickness of the employed LP-plates is 30 mm.
