Structural Characteristics and Application of Kawasaki Composite Slab Bridges

Keinosuke Hamada, Tomoo Kasuga, Masakatsu Sato, Sachito Tanaka
Synopsis :
Composite slab bridge has been newly developed as a simple support highway bridge. It consists of deformed flange T-shapes, bottom steel plates and expansive concrete. The depth of this bridge is much smaller than those of conventional bridges. Moreover, since steel plates act as a concrete form, erection work is very simple, rapid and safe. The structural characteristics and fatigue strength of this slab bridge has been clarified by a static bending rupture test and high-cycle fatigue test respectively. As the result of the tests, the design method has been justified and design in general is offered. Demand for this slab bridge increases every year accompanying river improvement and railway overpass projects.
