Performance of Jointless Bridges

Journal of Performance of Constructed Facilities, 1988
Over 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.

Review on research of jointless bridges

2022
The technological development of jointless bridges was reviewed, the advatages, application and research hotspots were introduced, the longitudinal stress characteristics, pile-soil interaction, earth pressure of backfill on the autment and seismic performance were analyzed, and the present situation and development direction of the new technology ...

Performance Evaluation of Jointless Bridges

Journal of Bridge Engineering, 2002
A 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.

Mechanical Characteristics of a New Type of Jointless Bridge with an Arch Structure

International Conference on Smart City and Systems Engineering, 2018
This paper investigates the mechanical characteristics of the jointless bridge, which is a new type of integral abutment bridge with an arch structure behind the abutment. Load tests were conducted on the three half-bridge plexiglass models with the pile

Design Model for Piles in Jointless Bridges

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1988
Piles in integral abutment bridges (jointless bridges) are subjected to lateral movement due to thermal expansion and contraction of the superstructure. The reduction in vertical load‐carrying capacity of the piles due to lateral movement is an important parameter in designing the piles and in setting length limits for the jointless bridge.

Prestressed Concrete Piles in Jointless Bridges

PCI Journal, 1996
The 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, 1988
An 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...
