Performance of Jointless Bridges
Journal of Performance of Constructed Facilities, 1988Over the years, bridge deck expansion joints have performed poorly, resulting in structural distress and other ill effects. In an attempt to remedy this situation, 28 states have constructed long, multiple‐span highway bridges without expansion joints.

Performance Evaluation of Jointless Bridges
Journal of Bridge Engineering, 2002A recent trend in bridge design has been toward the elimination of joints and bearings in the bridge superstructure. Joints and bearings are expensive in both initial and maintenance costs and can get filled with debris, freeze up, and fail in their task to allow expansion and contraction of the superstructure.

Application of Jointless Bridges in China
2023The expansion devices (expansion joints) can be eliminated in jointless bridges to fundamentally resolve the disease and maintenance and replacement problems caused by the expansion devices. Compared to conventional bridges, jointless bridges without deck expansion joint have the advantages of low maintenance cost, improved ride quality, simple and ...

Abutment Pile Design for Jointless Bridges
Journal of Structural Engineering, 1989Abutment piles for a jointless bridge are subjected to lateral displacement as the bridge superstructure expands and contracts. The piles must be designed to satisfy the strength criteria of a structural member and the load transfer requirements and support resistance of the surrounding soil. Two design alternatives for the pile capacity are presented.

Fatigue in jointless bridge H-piles under axial load and thermal movements
Journal of constructional steel research, 2018The 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

Prestressed Concrete Piles in Jointless Bridges
PCI Journal, 1996The purpose of this investigation is to determine the feasibility of using precast, prestressed concrete piles in jointless bridges and to develop design criteria and pile-abutment joint details that can be used in practice. This phase of the project comprised an experimental and analytical study of load-deflection behavior of HP 10-42 and 12x12 in ...

END‐Bearing Piles in Jointless Bridges
Journal of Structural Engineering, 1988An algorithm based on a nonlinear finite element procedure previously developed by the writers is modified and used to study the effect of thermally induced lateral movement on the vertical loadcar...
