Abstract
A new bridge is currently under construction on the south pavement of the Rijeka Bypass, next to the existing bridge built in 1984. The design documentation for both bridges was prepared already in 1970s, but the construction of the southern pavement was postponed. In the new design, the initial design requirements have been adjusted to the modern requirements regarding load-bearing capacity in operation. The increased traffic and seismic actions call for an increase in the size of cross sections, which in turn results in greater consumption of materials when compared to the initial design.
