Bridge expansion joints are designed to adjust its length accommodating movement or deformation by external loads shrinkage or temperature variations and allow for continuous traffic between bridge structures and interconnecting structures another bridge or abutment.
When Should expansion joints be cut in concrete? Anticipated movement at the bridge expansion joint see Design of the Pipeline for Expansion and Contraction in this section 4 Unrestrained mechanical joints. Key Considerations When Using DI Pipe for Bridge Crossings.
