Application of engineered compressible inclusions to mitigating soil-structure interaction issues in integral bridge abutments
The thermally induced cyclic loading on integral bridge abutments causes soil deformation and lateral stress ratcheting behind the abutment wall due to the expansion and contraction of the bridge deck. The forward and backward movements of the abutment in response to the expansion/contraction of the...
