Bridge Repair & Strengthening

A five metre span sandstone arch carrying a disused railway line which is now used for pedestrian access.

The bridge was affected by circumferential and vertical separation of the voussoir stone arch ring.

A total of thirty four, 52 mm diameter, transverse sleeved anchors were installed by Bersche-Rolt site personnel through the arch barrel and abutment walls at lengths ranging from 2 to 2.5 m.

External core holes were resin fixed back into place to provide a concealed solution.
