The most frequent damage and collapse of some of the spans of Charles Bridge during floods occurred namely in its central part which was exposed to an intense flow of backwater and erosion of the bridge pier footing bottom, which the originally relatively shallow foundations of the piers on boxes were not able to resist for a longer time (the floods of 1432, 1496, 1784, 1890). The stone vault bridge structure was damaged due to scouring of the bridge piers foundations, their successive tilting and settlement accompanied by degradation, and finally collapse of the adjoining bridge vaults. The foundation of piers on caissons and execution of caisson rings in 1892 and 1902 to 1904 in this part of the bridge, together with measures avoiding the piling up of objects in front of the bridge, enabled the bridge to withstand the impact of more than a hundred‐year flood during the events of August 2002. The numerical analysis proved an extreme sensitivity of the stone vault bridge structure to the effects ...
