Tensile Performance of SHCC Road-Bridge Link Slabs in Fully Jointless Bridges [PDF]
Deformation of the main girder is absorbed by a continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) with microcracks in fully jointless bridges. The conventional fully jointless bridge has been challenged by durability and reliability issues because the ...

Investigation on Flooding-Resistant Performance of Integral Abutment and Jointless Bridge
Bridge washouts connected to flood events are deemed one of the main reasons for structural collapse. Compared to traditional continuous jointed bridges, integral abutment and jointless bridges (IAJBs) have better lateral stability because there are no ...

Jointless Bridge Design at the Virginia Department of Transportation
AbstractIn an effort to reduce bridge lifecycle costs, the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) has developed new design method aimed at the elimination of expansion joints. Various structural details have been experimented with, including full integral abutment with a moment relief hinge, semi-integral abutment, and deck extension. In addition,

Behavior of FRP Link Slabs in Jointless Bridge Decks
The paper investigated the use of fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) grid for reinforcement in link slabs for jointless bridge decks. The design concept of link slab was examined based on the ductility of the fiberglass-reinforced plastic grid to ...

Behavior and Design of Link Slabs for Jointless Bridge Decks [PDF]
Maintenance of bridge deck joints is a costly problem. Debris accumulation in the joints can restrain deck expansion, causing undesirable forces in the deck and damage to the structure. Water leaking through the joints is a major cause for the deterioration of bridge girder bearings and supporting structures.

Fatigue in jointless bridge H-piles under axial load and thermal movements
The seasonal and short-term temperature variations produce cyclic horizontal displacements in the continuous superstructure of jointless bridges and hence in the abutment piles. Thorough study of the available field measurement data for jointless bridges

Study on the bending deformation properties of microcracked R-ECC road–bridge link slabs [PDF]
A novel road-bridge link slab utilizing rubberized engineered cementitious composites (R-ECC) has been proposed for fully jointless bridges (FJBs). Preliminary research has shown that R-ECC road-bridge link slabs possess superior deformation absorption ...

Integral Abutment and Jointless Bridges [PDF]
Integral bridges, or integral abutment and jointless bridges, as they are more commonly known in the USA, are constructed without any movement joints between spans or between spans and abutments. Typically these bridges have stub-type abutments supported
