The report presents the emerging deformations and displacements in the supporting structure of the bridge at its ends in the transition area with the earth`s foundation. Additional tensile and compressive forces were calculated in the rail fastening in the slab track in the joint zone. Structural measures are proposed to reduce the effort in the fixings. This applies to the ends of the bridge in place of the joints between the bridge superstructure and resist or joints along the bridge facility or between two top structures. As a result of the deformations of the top structures at their ends a tense state is created at the points of attachment of the rails - tensile and compressive.
