Evaluation on the behavior of abutment–pile connection in integral abutment bridge

Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2011
Abstract Integral abutment bridges can reduce the amount and cost of construction and maintenance work since they do not have expansion joints and shoes in order to increase stability and durability of the bridges’ system. Integral abutment bridges normally have single-row H-pile systems to resist the behaviors under service loading conditions such ...

Field Monitoring of Integral Abutment Bridge in Massachusetts

open access: yesTransportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2004
Integral abutment bridges are increasingly being used to eliminate undesirable bridge joint effects on the long-term performance of bridges. Although many states use this type of construction, common design guidelines are lacking, and nonuniform limitations on integral abutment design are imposed by different agencies. Data from the field monitoring of

Analysis of Curved Integral Abutment Bridges

open access: yes, 2010
Deformation of bridges that are induced by thermal loads can be accommodated by expansion joints and bearings. Integral Abutment Bridges have gained acceptance as a way to mitigate potential damage from thermal movements, eliminating the poor performance and maintenance costs associated with expansion joints and bearings.

Integral Abutment Bridges: The European Way

open access: yesPractice Periodical on Structural Design and Construction, 2010
Integral abutment bridges are becoming more popular in Europe, but the traditions differ from country to country. This leads to different technical solutions for the same problem in each country. A European survey was conducted in early 2007 to illustrate the design criteria used by each different country for integral abutment bridges.

Analytical Formulation for Limit Length of Integral Abutment Bridges

Structural Engineering International: Journal of the International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering (IABSE), 2011
The integral abutment bridge concept has recently become a topic of remarkable interest among bridge engineers, not only for newly built bridges but also for refurbishment processes.

Rigidity of abutments in integral abutment bridges

Structure and Infrastructure Engineering, 2011
In this article, we present the results from a numerical and an experimental analysis of the Scotch Road integral abutment bridge located in Trenton, New Jersey. A three-dimensional, non-linear finite element (FE) model of the bridge has been developed to study the effect of thermal loading on pile–soil interaction.

Foundations for Integral Abutments

Practice Periodical on Structural Design and Construction, 2007
Integral-abutment bridges have many advantages over full-height-abutment or stub-abutment bridges. Integral abutments eliminate or reduce the number of expansion joints in bridge superstructures and simplify design, detailing, and construction. In this paper, foundation design concepts, such as fixed-head pile, pinned-head pile, hinged abutment, fixed ...
