High Performance Joints between Prefabricated Traffic Slab Elements for Industrial Bridge Construction

Publication: High Performance Materials in Bridges

Abstract

A study of an innovative new concept for joints between prefabricated concrete elements has been conducted. The aim has been to design a joint that is stronger than the surrounding elements, but still a very small joint that is easy and fast to perform. A special steel fiber reinforced high performance concrete is used in the joint. Several laboratory tests have been performed showing that the joint meets the demands and can be treated monolithic in design.
