Preliminary Engineering Geological Study for the Railway Line Design between Hungary and Slovenia

Abstract

In the valleys a geo-textile 0.5 - 1.0 m foundation of stone spreading and a drain ditch have to be constructed. Additionally, at Nagyrékás, in the region of Balla hill a 1400 m long viaduct with 15 - 18 m deep pile foundation, a 40 m span bridge over a river, a 300 m long tunnel in gravel and clay, along with 9 - 11 m deep cuttings supported by gabionwall in three sections will be completed. More than 50 engineering structures should altogether be established along the whole railway line.
