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

Abstract Deck caps of bridges—in Germany shortly known as “bridge caps”—are usually made of steel reinforced concrete to form the anchoring area for the guardrail of bridge deck edges on existing cantilever slabs. Combined with protective devices, the outside arranged deck caps provide safety against lateral breaking or crashes of vehicles.

Study on Mechanical Properties of Simply Supported Girder Bridge after Jointless
The jointless bridges includes integral bridges, semi-integral bridges and extended deck bridges. The integral bridges adopts an integral abutment, and its main girder, abutment and pile under abutment are fixed together to bear the force together.

Dry Shrinkage Property of BFRP Reinforced Ecological High Ductility Concrete
Ecological high ductility concrete (Eco-HDC) has an excellent tensile property, thus can be used to cast bridge jointless link slab. To avoid the crack problem caused by the large shrinkage of Eco-HDC material, BFRP bar is selected as a kind of anti ...

Abstract Limiting crack widths to an acceptable level and determining the required minimum reinforcement are important tasks in the design of reinforced and prestressed concrete structures. Experience with different types of structures, ranging from watertight concrete structures to prestressed concrete bridges, shows that the concept currently applied

Study on Influence of Joint Distribution on Surrounding Rock Failure of an Underground Tunnel
Due to geological structure and artificial disturbance, a large number of joints and fissures are formed in the surrounding rock of an underground tunnel. In order to study the influence of joints on the failure characteristics of tunnels, three test schemes with different joint lengths, joint spacing, and joint positions are designed. The results show

Nonlinear Stiffness of Semi-Fixed Dowel Joints in Semi-Integral Bridges
The semi-fixed dowel joint studied in this paper consists of a steel dowel with rubber sleeves and a rubber pad to connect the superstructure and the substructure and to support the main beam. This type of joint is suitably used in retrofitting a jointed
