Talbrücke Truckenthal
Talbrücke Truckenthal, Railway bridge in Thuringia, Germany
The Talbrücke Truckenthal spans 425 meters across a deep valley, incorporating a dual-track system designed for trains traveling at speeds up to 300 kilometers per hour.
Construction of the bridge commenced in 2007 and encountered significant challenges, including a structural incident in 2008 that required partial demolition and reconstruction of damaged sections.
The bridge represents German engineering principles in modern railway infrastructure, contributing to the advancement of high-speed rail transportation across central Germany.
The structure features 2-meter-high noise protection walls on both sides and utilizes a fixed track system that reduces vibration during train passages.
The bridge's rectangular hollow concrete pillars incorporate a precise 70:1 upward tapering ratio, ensuring optimal stability against lateral forces during high-speed train operations.
Inception: 2011
Part of: Nuremberg Hbf–Erfurt Hbf high-speed railway
