Abstract
The paper deals with an operation of Italian engineers in Central African Republic (CAR). The aim of the operation was to construct the temporary bridge. This operation was supported by 15th Engineering Regiment and the University of Defence. Two soldiers from the 15th Engineering Regiment were sent to CAR to help Italian engineers. During this operation REACH-BACK concept between University of Defence and 15th Engineer Regiment was used. Communication and cooperation between these units was supported by Information Portal of Engineer Corps. The portal works as a support element for REACH-BACK concept.
Highlights
The Central African Republic (CAR) is a separate sovereign state often driven by military conflicts
It was very important to meet all obligations and implement all actions so that the Armed Forces of the Czech Republic (ACR) was still rated as a reliable allied partner
The preparation of the project documentation of the temporary bridge was a standard task for the members of the Department of Engineer Technology, which they had repeatedly carried out during floods or different exercises many times already [3]
Summary
The Central African Republic (CAR) is a separate sovereign state often driven by military conflicts. These conflicts resulted in a civil war in 2012. The insufficient transport infrastructure with damaged bridges and roads, was considerably paralysed due to the fact that CAR is a developing country with a very low GDP. It was necessary to perform a regeneration of these elements, since bridges have become, due to the absence of any other type of transport in the country, a key factor in the framework of the system of transport services across the country. In the framework of transport, it is a central bridge construction, which is used in particular for the transport of trucks with supplies of food and medical supplies.
