Abstrakt: |
Sliding finger expansion joints with very large movement capacity, believed to be the largest sliding finger joints in the world, are currently being delivered for the Audubon Bridge in Louisiana, which on completion in 2010 will be the longest cable stay bridge in North America. This paper describes the selection of expansion joint type and the various challenges faced in delivering these exceptional joints. |
