| Abstrait: |
Expansion joints are a highly stressed component of bridge equipment. The modern expansion joints have developed into complicated constructions whose design criteria are determined by a wide requirement spectrum. The comprehensive definition of the requirement profile is derived from it. Various construction types are available as a function of the operating condition. At the moment a technical approvals guideline of expansion joints for road bridges originates within the scope of the efforts towards a harmonized European code of practice. In particular the load assumptions show differences for comparable valid national rules. Even more amplified efforts are undertaken to the advancement of the expansion joints in the fields of reduction noise emission and special operating properties - e.g., earthquake suitability. |
