Bridge type (only for DIN EN)

Selecting the bridge type (road bridge, railway bridge, pedestrian bridge) influences certain checks according to DIN EN, such as various combinations to be considered and limit values for the crack width check. Further, when e.g. selecting railway bridges, additional rules such as the railway specific technical construction regulations (Eisenbahnspezifischen Technischen Baubestimmungen (EiTB)) are considered.

Note: The settings can also be done or changed afterwards in the Project Settings.
