Road bridges between actual and future heavy load traffic - Road traffic loads according to DIN EN 1991-2/NA

The effects of the actual heavy load traffic on the Germen road network and the predicted future development of this traffic to the actions on road bridges are analysed. The main focus are the loads for the design of new road bridges. Analyses for the load on existing bridges are given too. Those are part of the guideline for recalculation of bridges [1].
