Abstract

The static and dynamic testing of two arch bridges, approximately equal in span but made of different materials, is described. The Cetina Bridge in Trilj (140 m in span) is made of concrete. The new Maslenica Bridge (155 m in span), built on foundations of the old bridge destroyed in war, is a composite steel/concrete structure, with the concrete deck slab. Appropriate static and dynamic arch parameters of these two big arch bridges, as obtained during load testing, are compared.
