Ground screws in the Railway Bridges Handbook

In the third revised edition of the Railway Bridges Handbook, ground screws are listed for the first time in one of the most authoritative reference works for bridge and infrastructure construction in the railway sector—a strong sign of their growing recognition and technical relevance.

The Railway Bridges Handbook, published by the Global Rail Group (or PMC Media House / Trackomedia), is one of the standard works for planners, test engineers, builders, and infrastructure operators. It provides in-depth and comprehensive coverage of the planning, design, construction, and maintenance of railway bridges, always in line with the latest technology, regulations, and practical requirements.

The third edition was written by renowned authors Tristan M. Mölter, Michael Fiedler, and Rolf H. Pfeifer, all of whom are experts with many years of experience in bridge construction, particularly in the railway sector.

In the chapter on foundations and substructures, screw foundations are now treated as an innovative, flexible, and sustainable foundation alternative – particularly suitable for temporary auxiliary structures, areas that are difficult to access, or requirements with minimal interference with the building ground. Advantages such as quick, vibration-free installation, direct load-bearing capacity, and removable use are highlighted here.

The inclusion of this topic in such a prestigious technical compendium clearly shows that screw foundations have arrived in the highly regulated field of railway construction. For anyone who wants to build economically and environmentally consciously, this recognition offers a new dimension – technical reliability included.
