Reinforced Earth® bridge
abutments on either side of existing tracks offer the same advantages as
Reinforced Earth® walls. Abutments can therefore be built tight
against the clearance line or service road. For instance, overpasses featuring
the combined use of Reinforced Earth® abutments and precast beam
decks create only minimal disruption to train traffic. Depending on site
conditions and owners' requirements, simple or integral load-bearing abutments
can be used, or even mixed abutments.
