Severinske Drage Viaduct
Severinske Drage Viaduct is located between the Bosiljevo 2 and Vrbovsko interchanges of the A6 motorway in Gorski Kotar, Croatia, just to the east of Veliki Gložac Tunnel. It is long. The viaduct consists of two parallel structures: The first one was completed in 2004, and the second one in 2007. The viaduct is tolled within the A6 motorway ticket system and there are no separate toll plazas associated with use of the viaduct. The viaduct was designed by Jure Radnić and constructed by Hidroelektra and Konstruktor. Structure description At this location the motorway route follows a horizontal curve of radius. Transversal grade of the deck is constant and equal to 2.5%, while elevation grade of the eastern part (closer to Bosiljevo 2) of the viaduct is constant at 5.2505% while its western part (closer to Vrbovsko) follows a concave vertical curve of radius. The viaduct is a beam structure supporting the deck slab across 18 spans: + 16 x + . Superstructure of the viaduct consists of prestressed prefabricated girders executed as freely supported beams. As their longitudinal joints were concreted atop the viaduct piers they comprise continuous girders, made composite with the deck slab using standard reinforcing steel.
