Images at left: the upper part of<br />
the dowel, <strong>for</strong> the center section<br />
of the superstructure slab,<br />
is covered with plastic so that<br />
super- and substructure do not<br />
have direct contact. Adhesive<br />
mortar is injected into the holes<br />
and the dowels are twisted in.<br />
Images below: the dowels <strong>for</strong><br />
the edges of the slabs are flattened<br />
on the side. Thanks to<br />
the expansion space, longitudinal<br />
expansion of the connecting<br />
dowels is possible.<br />
The sleepers and rebar <strong>for</strong> the superstructure of the left rail bed are in place and the dowels have been set.<br />
On the right, the superstructure has already been poured. The expansion joints are visible.
