Abstract

The paper presents static and dynamic load testing of the Svilaj interstate bridge over the Sava River. In addition to presenting the basic structural elements of the bridge, the paper briefly describes the testing method, provides the basic characteristics of the equipment used for testing, and presents some of the results of the conducted testing along with an analysis and comparison of the measured parameters. At the end of the paper, the conclusion explains that a high level of agreement between the measured parameters was determined and the performance of the structure was verified.
