| Abstrait: |
In order to minimise traffic disruption during expansion joint replacement works, it is beneficial to recognise at the time of initial joint selection and installation that the joint will almost certainly require to be replaced several times during the lifetime of the main structure. An expansion joint design which has resulted from this recognition is presented. The main parts of this joint, a sliding finger joint, can be easily replaced in a single night shift. Even where the original expansion joint is of a different type, a solution which enables replacement of the old joint with a new sliding finger joint, with minimal disruption to traffic, is presented. |
