| Abstrait: |
The European Assessment Documents (EAD) introduced in 2020 by the European Organization for Technical Assessment (EOTA) to govern the technical assessment of expansion joints for road bridges represent a strong development from the corresponding European Technical Approval Guideline from 2013, ETAG 032. The EADs’ requirements, which may be used by manufacturers to obtain a European Technical Assessment (ETA), significantly exceed those of any other common national specification for expansion joints in Europe or on an international level, especially in relation to the very demanding field and laboratory testing specified. This improved basis for the assessment of expansion joint performance can be expected to result in expansion joints that are far more robust and durable than those that are designed to comply with any other widely used standard. |
