Bridge expansion joint: In order to meet the requirement of bridge deck deformation, expansion joint is usually set between two beam ends, between beam ends and abutment or at the hinge position of bridge. Expansion joints are required to be free and reliable in both directions parallel to and perpendicular to the axis of the bridge. Vehicles should pass smoothly without jumping and noise. Rainwater and garbage and soil should be prevented from seeping into the blockage. Installation, inspection, maintenance and removal of dirt should be simple and convenient. At the place where expansion joints are set up, the railings and deck pavement shall be disconnected.
The function of bridge expansion joint is to adjust the displacement and connection between the superstructure caused by vehicle load and bridge building materials. Once the expansion device of skew bridge is destroyed, it will seriously affect the speed, comfort and safety of driving, and even cause traffic safety accidents.
