METROLOGICAL DETERMINATION OF THE FEHMARNSUND BRIDGE SYSTEM BEHAVIOUR AS A BASIS FOR ASSESSMENTS ACQUIRED THROUGH MEASUREMENT (ASSESSMENT PROFILE ACCORDING TO GUIDELINE 805)

Gert Gommola

Abstract

With the planned construction of the fixed link across the straits known as the Fehmarn Belt, which will connect the island of Fehmarn in Germany with the Danish island of Lolland, a heavy increase in traffic is predicted on the Fehmarnsund Bridge, built in 1963. For this reason, it became necessary to verify available or new mathematical load bearing calculations against assessments acquired through measurement. This paper describes only the execution of measurements and their evaluation or interpretation; however, it does not determine any results nor does it derive any conclusions with regard to utilisation.
