A bridge for a rail vehicle, including a track, which is formed from two parallel rails for being driven on by the rail vehicle, and including a bridge beam, which supports the rails of the track and is aligned transversely to a support profile of the bridge. The bridge beam is supported by a height adjustment element arranged between the support profile and the bridge beam, and the position of the bridge beam is fixed in relation to the height adjustment element by at least one fastening device. Exact positioning of the bridge beams at their target height is achieved by designing the height adjustment element as a single-piece block, whose height is adapted to the distance between the support profile and the bridge beam via material-removing processing. Preferably, the bridge beam and the height adjustment element consist of a plastic-based material, in particular a plastic-sand mixture.
A bridge for a rail vehicle, comprising a track, which is formed from two parallel rails (S1, S2) and is provided for being driven on by the rail vehicle, and comprising a bridge beam (B1, B2), which supports the rails (S1, S2) of the track and is aligned transversely to a support profile (T1, T2) of the bridge, wherein the bridge beam (B1, B2) is supported by a height adjustment element (R1, R2) arranged between the support profile (T1, T2) and the bridge beam (B1, B2), wherein at least one fastening device is provided by means of which the position of the bridge beam (B1, B2) is fixed in relation to the height adjustment element (R1, R2), characterised in that the height adjustment element (R1, R2) is designed as a single-piece block, whose height (HR) is adapted to the distance between the support profile (T1, T2) and the bridge beam (B1, B2) by means of material-removing processing, and in that the material of which the bridge beam (B1, B2) and/or the height adjusting element (R1, R2) are made is a plastic-sand mixture, and wherein the height adjustment element (R1, R2) is mounted on the support profile (T1, T2) so as to be displaceable in the longitudinal direction (LT) of the support profile (T1, T2).
A method for assembling a bridge beam (B1, B2) on a support profile (T1, T2) of a bridge for a rail vehicle, provided that the upper side of the bridge beam (B1, B2) is at a certain absolute target height (HS) when fully assembled, comprising the following work steps:
