In Slovenia, in august 1999, a transport of an extraordinary weight was put through. From port Koper to Nuclear Power Station Krsko two steamer of c/a 600 tonnes were transported. The transport mainly passed on the highroads, but as well also on the motorway, because of some major obstacles on the roads (long viaducts, too low road bridges, too sharp turnings). The transport crossed c/a 20 of overbridged objects, which needed to be checked and sniffed. Per c/a 200 km of the journey the 8 measurements of overbridging objects have been carried out, most of them sniffed. During the transport, we followed the vertical movements and powers in the structions of the object of Ponikve by Trebnje. On objects, where the pressure - test was carried out, we used geodetical and physical methods. With geodetical methods, we can get the movements and deformations of objects in the absolute system, which is independent of changes on measured objects. All other methods are more than less relative methods. The results of relative methods are usually more exact than the geodetical ones, but with the combination on both methods we can get the 3D picture of movements and deformations in a determinate time interval. The use of more methods has ensured us the very high accuracy of movement determination.
