INTEGRAL ABUTMENT AND JOINTLESS BRIDGES; Vasant C. Mistry1; Abstract; There are many advantages to jointless bridges as many are performing well in service. There are long-term benefits to adopting integral bridge design concepts and therefore there should be greater use of integral bridge construction.

The superstructure for integral abutment bridges is cast integrally with abutments that are supported by a single row of piles. Thermal expansion or contraction and concrete creep and shrinkage induce bending stresses in the piles.
