Landhoofd


High and low-skilled head of state

A head of land, or bridgehead, is the transition from a base to a bridge, lock or viaduct.

The country head consists of the following components: the actual headland, wingwalls and bulletin boards. The head of state takes care of the actual bridge.

There are two different types of head of state: the high-level country head and the low-skilled country head.

Highly-rated country head

A high-headed head of land is located in front of the head of the head. As a result, the bridge's surge is greater. Low-skilled landlord

With this type of head of land, the bridge overvoltage is smaller. There is no talud in front of the head of the country. However, the ground pressure against the back of the country head is greater, resulting in greater lateral loads. Wing walls

The wing walls take care of the landroader's connection to the Talud. Baffles

The baffles, transition plates or float plates take care of the transition between the basic body and the headland bar. Impact plates are often used with loose plates of a small width. These pads are not linked together.
