A Study of the Effects of Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil and Reinforcement Length on GRS Bridge Abutment

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
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.

Study on Calculation Method of Larger Unbalanced Earth Pressure of Backfill behind Abutment in Integral Abutment Jointless Bridges [PDF]

open access: yesZhengzhou Daxue xuebao. Gongxue ban, 2022
In order to study the variation of larger unbalanced earth pressure of backfill behind abutment caused by vehicle load, several reciprocating low-cycle pseudo-static tests on interaction of soil-abutment-steel H-pile with or without considering the ...

Environment-Induced Performance of End Concrete Diaphragm in Skewed Semi-Integral Bridges

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
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

Effects of Geogrid Reinforcement on the Backfill of Integral Bridge Abutments

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
The construction of integral bridges is one of the most effective methods to reduce bridges’ construction and in-service costs. However, there are associated geotechnical problems with their abutments backfill due to the integrated abutments.

Monitoring of a bridge with integral abutment

open access: yesIABSE Reports, 2007
<p>Preliminary results obtained from short term test-loading are used to illustrate possibilities of FEM used to calibrate complex interaction characteristics between a pile and soil in a bridge with integral abutments. The measurements are obtained during the winter season on the bridge over Ledån, Northern Sweden.

Comparison of various FEM approaches in analysis of passive earth pressures

open access: yesComputer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science, 2018
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

Integral bridge abutment with composite dowels: structural scheme and failure patterns

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity
This paper presents a novel integral abutment design incorporating a composite dowel girder and H-shaped steel pile abutments to enhance load-bearing capacity and construction efficiency.

Seismic Performance Evaluation of a Fully Integral Concrete Bridge with End-Restraining Abutments

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2019
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 ...

Subsoil stiffness effects on the bridge-abutment dynamic behaviour [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
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.
