DIVIDED HIGHWAY “OURENSE-CELANOVA”– MEASURING THE SPAN DEFLECTION IN A VIADUCT

Measuring the span deflection of a viaduct, located in the divided highway Ourense-Celanova, during a load test required before the commissioning of the structure, scheduled for January 2013. In general, it should measure at least the deflection in all the span centers and the descent in the support lines.

This study is complemented with the complete geometry acquisition of the viaduct, collected with the mobile LiDAR system.
