Original Abstract

The subject of this article is to prepare a model according to the theory of similitude. More specifically a concrete horizontally curved model in a reduced scale. During the design of the model, it was necessary to resolve all variables and places which we will measure and then to determine the appropriate scale, size of the model and parameters of the load. This is the part, when the theory of similitude was used. In the first part of the study there are shown conditions of this theory. In the next part there is a process of the design of the model, both the theoretical derivation of the similarity relations between the model and the real structure and the practical part - determining particular dimensions, the ballast and the load. The results of this design were all important values necessary for the manufacture and testing of the model.
