Geosynthetic-reinforced soil (GRS) technology has been used worldwide since the 1970s. An extension to its development is the application as a bridge abutment, which was initially developed by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in the United ...

Subsoil stiffness effects on the bridge-abutment dynamic behaviour [PDF]
Integral abutment bridges (IABs) are robust structures that avoid the use of bearings and expansion joints and are relatively maintenance-free compared to conventional bridges.

Integral bridges are a class of bridges with integral or semi-integral abutments, designed without expansion joints in the bridge deck of the superstructure.

The geosynthetic reinforced soil (GRS) bridge abutment with a staged-construction full height rigid (FHR) facing and an integral bridge (IB) system was developed in Japan in the 2000s.

Soil-abutment or soil-pile interactions under cyclic static loads have been widely studied in integral abutment jointless bridges (IAJBs). However, the IAJB has the combinational interaction of soil-abutment and soil-pile, and the soil-abutment-pile ...

Influence of Construction Joint and Bridge Geometry on Integral Abutment Bridges
Although integral abutment bridges (IABs) have become a preferred construction choice for short- to medium-length bridges, they still have unclear bridge design guidelines.

Comparison of various FEM approaches in analysis of passive earth pressures
Passive earth pressure is an important element in integral bridge design. Due to the integral connection between bridge deck and abutments, the integral bridge expansion and contraction under temperature action causes abutments to move together with the

Seismic Performance Evaluation of a Fully Integral Concrete Bridge with End-Restraining Abutments
A fully integral bridge that is restrained at both ends by the abutments has been proposed to form a monolithic rigid frame structure. Thus, the feasible horizontal force effect due to an earthquake or vehicle braking is mainly prevented by the end ...

Environment-Induced Performance of End Concrete Diaphragm in Skewed Semi-Integral Bridges
Past research has shown that as skewed bridges change temperature, additional lateral movement or forces will occur along with the elongation of the bridge. Even though past research has documented this behavior, lateral movements of semi-integral bridge

An innovative steel-concrete joint for integral abutment bridges
Integral abutment bridges are becoming rather common, due to the durability problems of bearings and expansion joints. At the same time, among short- and medium-span bridges, multi-beam steel-concrete composite deck with hot-rolled girder is an ...
