Bridge renovation in Biblis: CSZ replaces bearings on the Weschnitz Bridge

As part of extensive maintenance measures, CSZ replaced the bearings of the Weschnitz Bridge on Bürstädter Straße, Biblis, in June. The decision to replace the existing roller bearings was made due to severe corrosion, which was significantly impairing their functionality.
To replace the bearings, the entire bridge superstructure was raised by a few millimetres to relieve the existing bearings and prepare for the removal. After removal, new elastomer bearings were installed. CSZ carried out the static calculations in order to select the optimum bearings for the specific requirements. Planning and execution were carried out in close cooperation with the construction company carrying out the work.
This measure is part of a comprehensive infrastructure maintenance program and contributes significantly to the long-term safety and functionality of the Weschnitz Bridge. CSZ is continuously committed to the modernization and maintenance of bridge structures in order to meet current and future requirements.
