APPLICATION OF CLASSICAL LAND SURVEYING MEASUREMENT METHODS FOR DETERMINING THE VERTICAL DISPLACEMENT OF RAILWAY BRIDGES
Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 27
Abstract
The classical measurements of stability of railway bridge, in the context of determining the vertical displacements of the object, consisted on precise leveling of girders and trigonometric leveling of controlled points (fixed into girders' surface). The construction elements, which were measured in two ways, in real terms belonged to the same vertical planes. Altitude measurements of construction were carried out during periodic structural stability tests and during static load tests of bridge by train. The specificity of displacement measurements, the type of measured object and the rail land surveying measurement conditions were determinants to define methodology of altitude measurement. The article presents compatibility of vertical displacements of steel railway bridge, which were developed in two measurement methods. In conclusion, the authors proposed the optimum concept of determining the vertical displacements of girders by using precise and trigonometric leveling (in terms of accuracy, safety and economy of measurement).
