The new bridge on the Pirna southern bypass will be 916 metres long, 70 metres high and require 7, 250 tonnes of steel. DEGES is building the 3.8 kilometre long route. The route leads from the 172a to the B 172 on the Sonnenstein near Krietzschwitz and is intended to relieve Pirna city centre of through traffic in the future. For this purpose, a 50 metre long and 140 tonne heavy pre-build spigot will be pushed from the abutment on the Sonnenstein over the pillars that are already in place. The final push has been successfully completed and now the finishing work is underway, Gottleuba Valley Bridge, Pirna, Saxony, Germany, Europe

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - Inside the Rotation, Processing and Surge Facility, or RPSF, at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, an overhead crane moves NASA locomotive No. 2 aside after being lifted off of its trucks, clearing the way for locomotive No. 3 to be raised off its trucks and moved into position atop the trucks previously used by locomotive No. 2. The RPSF was built to support work on the solid rocket used motors during the space shuttle era. The facility had never previously been used for another purpose, but is now free to serve other customers. With rails running into the building's high bay and a pair of heavy-lift cranes positioned overhead, the facility's capabilities were a perfect fit for the NASA Railroad's needs. Railroad managers wanted to trade the wheel and axle assemblies, or trucks, of locomotives No. 2 and No. 3. Locomotive No. 3 was painstakingly restored in recent years by the NASA Railroad team, and handles much of the rail work required at the center in th

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - In the Orbiter Processing Facility, John Newport, with United Space Alliance, inspects the wing of the orbiter Atlantis before installing a spar. Reinforced Carbon Carbon (RCC) panels are mechanically attached to the wing with a series of floating joints - spars - to reduce loading on the panels caused by wing deflections. The aluminum and the metallic attachments are protected from exceeding temperature limits by internal insulation.
