Liste der größten Trestle-Brücken
Über 40 der längsten Trestle-Brücken ![]() ![]() |
Die Liste der größten Trestle-Brücken führt die weltweit größten Trestle-Brücken (deutsch: Bockbrücke oder Gerüstpfeilerviadukt) auf, wobei nicht mehr vorhandene oder ersetzte Bauwerke ebenfalls gelistet sind (Tabellenzeilen grau hinterlegt). Sie wurden hauptsächlich zur Zeit der expandierenden Eisenbahngesellschaften in Nordamerika ab Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts in den Vereinigten Staaten und in Kanada errichtet. Baumaterial war anfangs ausschließlich Holz. Mit der Zunahme des Gewichts der immer leistungsstärkeren Dampflokomotiven kam später auch Schmiedeeisen sowie Stahl zum Einsatz. Mit der Entwicklung der Stahlindustrie wurden große Trestle-Brücken schließlich nur noch aus Stahl errichtet. Mit diesem Übergang veränderte sich auch die Ausführung von Trestle-Brücken. Die Holzkonstruktionen wurden meist aus einer gleichmäßigen Abfolge untereinander verbundener, gerüstartiger Stützen (Böcke) konstruiert und die Eisen- und Stahlkonstruktionen meist aus einer Abfolge separater Gerüstpfeiler bzw. Gittermasten. Neben einfachen Holzbalken kamen bei Holzkonstruktionen u. a. für den Überbau auch die nach William Howe benannten Howe-Fachwerkträger zum Einsatz, bei denen seit den 1840er Jahren für die auf Zug belasteten vertikalen Streben schon Eisenstangen verwendet wurden. Bei den Metallkonstruktionen besteht der Überbau in der Regel aus einer Abfolge von parallelgurtigen Fachwerkträgern oder Vollwandträgern, wobei hier die Länge der einzelnen Träger zwischen den Pfeilern (Spannweite) in der Regel größer ist als die Länge der Träger auf den Pfeilern (in der folgenden schematischen Darstellung sind die Spannweiten allerdings gleich groß dargestellt).
Ausführung von Holzkonstruktionen mit zusammenhängendem Unterbau
Trestle-Brücken fanden für große Eisenbahnbrücken bis Ende der 1930er Jahre Verwendung, wurden aber schließlich durch andere Tragwerkkonstruktionen verdrängt; die letzten großen Stahl-Trestle-Brücken errichtete man in den 1960er Jahren in der Provinz Alberta in Kanada (Meikle River Trestle 1963 und Wapiti River Trestle 1969). In Alberta befindet sich mit dem Lethbridge Viaduct von 1907 auch die größte Trestle-Brücke der Welt, mit einer Länge von über 1,6 Kilometern und einer Höhe von fast 100 Metern. Die höchste Trestle-Brücke für den Schienenverkehr wurde mit dem Viaducto del Loa (103 m) schon 1888 in Chile errichtet und die Thomas Creek Bridge von 1961 im US-Bundesstaat Oregon ist mit 105 Metern die höchste Straßenbrücke dieser Bauart (die Liste lässt sich im Tabellenkopf entsprechend sortieren, voreingestellt ist die Sortierung nach der Länge der Bauwerke).
Neben Trestle-Brücken als eigenständige Bauwerke wurde die Bauform auch für Vorlandbrücken hoher Fachwerkbrücken u. a. über die Unterläufe des Mississippi River, Missouri River, Ohio River oder Hudson River verwendet, die hier meist die ausgedehnten Überschwemmungsgebiete der Flüsse überspannen (zweite Tabelle). Die über drei Kilometer lange Ostzufahrt zur Huey P. Long Bridge (1935) im Jefferson Parish in Louisiana ist davon mit einer Endhöhe von fast 50 Metern die größte Konstruktion. Die größte Trestle-Brücke in Deutschland ist die fast 1,3 Kilometer lange Nordzufahrt zur 68 Meter hohen Rendsburger Hochbrücke (1913) in Schleswig-Holstein.
Kriterien
Da die Übergänge von der meist niedrigen Jochbrücke zur Trestle-Brücke sowie von Letzterer zu anderen Tragwerkskonstruktionen mit großen Spannweiten teils fließend und eine eindeutige Definition zur Abgrenzung in der Literatur nicht vorhanden ist, wurden den Tabellen folgende Kriterien zugrunde gelegt:
- Trestle-Brücken als eigenständige Bauwerke
- Die Bauwerke haben eine Gesamtlänge von mindesten 200 Metern und eine Höhe von mindestens 20 Metern (Gleis- oder Straßenebene). Sie sind größtenteils als Trestle-Brücken ausgeführt, können aber davon abweichend einen oder mehrere längere Träger von etwa 100 Meter Spannweite aufweisen, die meist als Fachwerkträger ausgeführt sind; bei Eisenbahnbrücken wurden Längen von maximal 300 ft (91 m) und bei Straßenbrücken bis zu 371 ft (113 m) realisiert. Weiterhin müssen bei den Brücken mit separaten Gerüstpfeilern bzw. Gittermasten einzelne Träger oder Teile eines Trägers diese deutlich überspannen (einzelne Pfeiler anderer Bauart können aber vorkommen); abgegrenzt werden hier Brücken mit allseitig nach oben spitz zulaufenden Gerüstpfeilern, auf denen sich nur die Enden der jeweiligen Träger treffen oder die längere Mehrfeldträger tragen (Beispiele sind hier die Hauptbrücke der Poughkeepsie Bridge, das Viaduc de Busseau oder das Malleco-Viadukt).
- Trestle-Brücken als Bestandteil anderer Brückentypen
- Neben den oben genannten Kriterien zur Ausführung muss mindestens eine Zufahrt zur Hauptbrücke eine Länge von mindesten 200 Metern haben und eine Endhöhe von mindestens 20 Metern erreichen (Höhe der Gleis- oder Straßenebene der Hauptbrücke).

Aufgrund der Vielzahl von errichteten Trestle-Brücken kann die Liste nicht den Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit erheben, wobei durch die gute Dokumentation der besonders langen und hohen Konstruktionen für diese von einer nahezu lückenlosen Zusammenstellung ausgegangen werden kann. Bei den kürzeren Brücken wurden nur die aufgenommen, für die aus der Literatur oder vertrauenswürdigen Internetquellen mindestens die Länge, die Höhe und die Zeit der Errichtung ermittelt werden konnte; eine fortlaufende Vervollständigung ist angestrebt.
- Name: Name der Brücke entsprechend dem Lemma in der deutschsprachigen Wikipedia.
- überbrückt: Name des Flusses oder Tals bzw. Canyons den die Brücke überspannt. Wenn das Tal keinen Namen hat, ist dies durch N/A (nicht verfügbar, von engl. not available) markiert.
- Länge: Gesamtlänge der Brücke zwischen den Widerlagern. Wenn die genaue Länge in den Quellen nicht angegeben ist, wird diese als ungefähre Angabe mit ca. markiert (tlw. mit der Entfernungsmessung bei Google Maps ermittelt).
- Spannweite: Längste Spannweite zwischen den tragenden Elementen wie Widerlager oder Brückenpfeiler. Bei Holz-Trestle-Brücken mit durchgehender Konstruktion ist diese Angabe nicht sinnvoll und wird mit N/A (nicht anwendbar) markiert.
- Höhe: Höhe der Brücke, i. d. R. die Höhe der Gleis- oder Straßenebene über dem tiefsten Punkt des Tals oder über der Wasseroberfläche.
- Material: Material der tragenden Strukturelemente der Brücke. Bei Kombinationen aus mehreren Materialien ist ein Zusatz in eckigen Klammern angegeben (Material von evtl. Vorgänger- oder Nachfolgebauten in runden Klammern).
- Fertigstellung: Jahr der Fertigstellung der Brücke. Planungs- und Baubeginn können mehrere Jahre davor liegen. Bei Umbauten oder Erweiterungen sowie späteren Neubauten ist in Klammern das Jahr der ursprünglichen Errichtung bzw. des Neubaus angegeben (die Sortierung erfolgt hier nach der ersten Trestle-Brücke).
- Stilllegung / Abriss: Jahr der Stilllegung der Brücke. Wenn die Konstruktion später abgerissen oder verfüllt wurde und somit nicht mehr vorhanden ist, so ist dieses Jahr angegeben und die Zeile grau hervorgehoben.
- Nutzung / Status: (Ursprüngliche) Nutzung als Eisenbahnbrücke, Straßenbrücke (tlw. als Kombination beider Verkehrswege) oder Aquädukt bzw. Ablaufkanal (engl. flume). Wenn ehemalige Eisenbahn- oder Straßenbrücken für die Nutzung von Radwander- bzw. Fußwegen umgebaut wurden, ist dies zusätzlich in Klammern angegeben
- Ort: Nächstgelegene Stadt oder die Region in der die Brücke errichtet wurde, mit Bundesstaat bzw. Bundesland.
- Koord.: Koordinaten der Brücke
- Land: Das entsprechende Land in ISO-3166-ALPHA-3-Code.
Tabellenzeilen von nicht mehr vorhandenen bzw. ersetzten Trestle-Brücken sind grau hinterlegt. Die Angaben zu Brücken, die noch keinen Artikel in der deutschsprachigen Wikipedia haben, sind durch die unter Name angeführten Einzelnachweise referenziert.

Entwicklung des US-Eisenbahnnetzes (Gleismeilen)[156]
In der unteren Grafik ist zusammenfassend die Anzahl der jährlich fertiggestellten Trestle-Brücken aus den oben gelisteten Daten wiedergegeben, wobei hier das Jahr der ersten Errichtung einfließt, auch wenn am gleichen Ort ein späterer Neubau durch eine vergleichbare Konstruktion aus einem anderen Material erfolgte.
Da weltweit über 90 Prozent aller großen Trestle-Brücken für den Schienenverkehr und davon die meisten in den USA errichtet wurden, ist der Anstieg in den 1880er und 1900er Jahren auf den verstärkten Ausbau des Eisenbahnnetzes in den USA zurückzuführen, das 1916 mit insgesamt über 400.000 Gleiskilometern (254.000 Gleismeilen) seine größte Ausdehnung erreichte.[156] Mit dem Ersten Weltkrieg 1914–1918 (Kriegseintritt der Vereinigten Staaten 1917) und durch die später folgende Weltwirtschaftskrise in den 1930er Jahren kam die Expansion zum Erliegen. Das Aufkommen des motorisierten Individualverkehrs führte schließlich zur Stilllegung vieler unrentabler Strecken. Da für den Ausbau des Straßennetzes vorwiegend Stahlbeton-Brücken Verwendung fanden, wurden bis in die 1960er Jahre weltweit nur noch vereinzelt große Trestle-Brücken errichtet; die letzten mit einer Länge von über 600 Metern waren in Kanada das Meikle River Trestle (Great Slave Lake Railway, 1963)[19] und das Wapiti River Trestle (Alberta Resources Railway, 1969).[12]
Jährlich fertiggestellte Trestle-Brücken (min. 200 m Länge und 20 m Höhe)
Trestle-Brücken als Bestandteil anderer Brückentypen
Die Liste gibt nur eine Auswahl von bestehenden großen Trestle-Brücken wieder, die als Zufahrten von Hauptbrücken anderer Tragwerkkonstruktionen errichtet wurden und den eingangs genannten Kriterien entsprechen.
- Name: Name der Brücke entsprechend dem Lemma in der deutschsprachigen Wikipedia.
- überbrückt: Name des Flusses oder Tals bzw. Canyons den die Brücke überspannt.
- Brückentyp: Bauform der Hauptbrücke.
- Gesamtlänge: Gesamtlänge der Brücke zwischen den Widerlagern.
- Spannweite: Längste Spannweite der Hauptbrücke zwischen den tragenden Elementen wie Widerlager oder Brückenpfeiler.
- Höhe: Höhe der Brücke, i. d. R. die Höhe der Gleis- oder Straßenebene über dem tiefsten Punkt des Tals oder über der Wasseroberfläche.
- Zufahrt-1 oder 2: Länge der Zufahrten bis zur Hauptbrücke. Wenn die genaue Länge in den Quellen nicht angegeben ist, wird diese als ungefähre Angabe mit ca. markiert (tlw. mit der Entfernungsmessung bei Google Maps ermittelt).
- Material: Material der tragenden Strukturelemente der Brücke. Bei Kombinationen aus mehreren Materialien ist ein Zusatz in eckigen Klammern angegeben (Material von evtl. Vorgänger- oder Nachfolgebauten in runden Klammern).
- Fertigstellung: Jahr der Fertigstellung der Brücke. Planungs- und Baubeginn können mehrere Jahre davor liegen. Bei Umbauten oder Erweiterungen sowie späteren Neubauten ist in Klammern das Jahr der ursprünglichen Errichtung bzw. des Neubaus angegeben.
- Nutzung / Status: Nutzung als Eisenbahnbrücke, Straßenbrücke oder als Kombination beider Verkehrswege.
- Ort: Nächstgelegene Stadt oder die Region in der die Brücke errichtet wurde sowie der entsprechende Bundesstaat oder Bundesland.
- Koord.: Koordinaten der Brücke
- Land: Das entsprechende Land in ISO-3166-ALPHA-3-Code.
Die Angaben zu Brücken, die noch keinen Artikel in der deutschsprachigen Wikipedia haben, sind durch die unter Name angeführten Einzelnachweise referenziert.

* A side view of a railroad bridge across the Caneadea Gorge, with a train car at the near end of the bridge.
- From the Allegany County Historical Society's website, alleganyhistory.org, accessed 2018: "In the early 1900's the [Buffalo & Susquehanna] Railroad erected a high steel bridge across the gorge. However, the railroad only lasted for a few years. The bridge was later sold to a Netherland Country. It was demolished and sent by ship across the Atlantic in the early 40's. On the way the freighter met with a German u-boat and now the freighter and bridge rest on the Atlantic floor."

Melton Viaduct carrying the Ballarat V/Line rail service across Melton Reservoir
The "Loop" was a circular trestle that at one point crossed over itself. The trestle was built to avoid the obstacle of building a railroad grade in a very steep section of the mountains. Between 1950 and 1951, the Alaska Railroad management rerouted the line and eventually destroyed the trestle as it was a liability.Caption on photo: The big loop. Mile 47½. A.N.Ry. PH Coll 495.32
These photographs, with negative numbers prefixed with "J" and "G," seem to have been taken by P. S. Hunt circa 1914-1915, prior to the beginning of construction work on the Alaska Railroad. Includes photographs of railroad lines and buildings previously in existence including the Alaska Northern Railway, the Copper River and Northwestern Railway, and the Alaska Central Railway.

Interesting facts I found on the Half-moon trestle on the Camas Prairie line. Although I was not able to confirm, Half-moon trestle was named after one of the tribe members of the Nez perce tribe. The Camas Prairie Railroad line in north central Idaho was often referred to as the railroad on stilts due to the many trestles, like this one, on the line! In the approximately twelve miles between Culdesac, Idaho and the top of the grade at the edge of the Camas Prairie, the railroad climbs close to 2,000 feet. This famed stretch includes seven tunnels (now 6 as one was 'daylighted') and eighteen trestles! The most famous of these trestles is the Half Moon Trestle, this is a graceful 684 feet arc, 141 feet above the ground! This was built using one million board feet of timber! While this retired railroad may not be known to most people outside the area, the engineering on this line is famous throughout the industry. If you saw the 1975 western Breakheart Pass with Charles Bronson, you would have seen these trestles in the movie! They are a great part of the history in this region.
