Abstract:

Since some national standards on bridge bearings have been issued and a certain level of knowledge seems to have consolidated, the time has come to prepare an ISO Standard. The most important elements that should be part of such an ISO Standard are listed. Contradictions between existing national standards should be clarified and eliminated. Outlived technology should not be part of an international standard while national standards still may specify such bearings for local reasons.

Abstract:

This paper describes field application problems experienced during the execution of a joint resealing program initiated within the limits of Region 10 (Nassau and Sufflok Counties) in the early 1980s. It describes what was done to overcome these problems. Solutions to such problems involved equipment modification and improved inspection technique. These modifications resulted in the virtual elimination of joint overfilling and a ten-fold performance improvement with regards to first-year intermittent bond adhesion failure. Worker safety and protection are discussed.

Abstract:

A highway bridge pot-bearing system was modeled using nonlinear finite elements to analytically trace the load distribution patterns and failure modes. Material properties for the concrete block supporting the bearing were represented by a modified consti

Abstract:

The stresses of expansion joints under dynamic aspects are examined. The analysis of dynamic stresses differs explicitly from the customary static examination. A static analysis cannot describe the dynamic actions involved and thus cannot supply a basis f
