pontoon bridges (<bridges by construction>, bridges (built works), ... Built Environment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Bridges, generally temporary, with decks supported on low flat-bottomed or hollow floats, often used by the military for river crossings. Permanent pontoon bridges may be used for crossings where it is not feasible to suspend a bridge from anchored piers. |

Additional Notes: |
|
Chinese (traditional) ..... 通常為臨時性,橋面以平底或中空的浮筒支撐的橋。 |
Dutch ..... Gebruik voor bruggen, meestal tijdelijk, waarvan de dekken worden ondersteund door lage drijvers met platte bodem (pontons). |
German ..... Eine üblicherweise nur temporär errichtete Brücke mit Fahrbahnen, die auf niedrigen, plattbodigen oder hohlen Schwimmkörpern aufliegt; häufig vom Militär zum Überqueren eines Flusses genutzt. Pontonbrücken für den dauerhaften Einsatz können zum Überqueren an den Stellen verwendet werden, wo es nicht möglich ist, eine Brücke an verankerten Pfeilern aufzuhängen. |
