Definitions
- the present invention relates to a bridge joint, that is to say a joint between two sections of the roadway of a bridge.
- Bridge joints are required primarily because of thermal expansion and contraction in the roadway of a bridge. Also they accommodate initial contract on setting of concrete in the roadway and relative shear and rise/fall of adjacent roadway sections.
- edge beams having support formations extending therealong, the edge beams being adapted to be fixed to respective opposite ones of the roadway sections and
- the object of the present invention is to provide an improvement on the Earlier Bridge Joint.
- a bridge joint in accordance with the Earlier Bridge Joint, wherein: the intermediate beams are supported on top of the crossbeams at flanges abutting the crossbeams; the spacing features are fitted to the top of the crossbeams; and the spacing features have lips engaging over the flanges of the intermediate beams.
- the spacing features are cams.
- the cam faces can be provided on either a base part of the cams abutting the crossbeams or on the lips or on both. Basal cam surfaces work against the flanges of the crossbeams. Cam surfaces on the lips work against webs of the intermediate beams.
- cams are bolted to the crossbeams, whereby they can be unbolted and the intermediate beams lifted off the crossbeams.
- Figure 1 is a cross-sectional side view of a bridge joint of the invention.
- the bridge joint 1 shown in the drawings is set between two adjacent bridge roadway sections 2,3, which are liable to move by a small amount with respect to each other.
- the joint has steel edge beams 4,5 arranged at the edge of the concrete C of the roadway sections.
- Each edge beam has a central section 6, which is generally square in cross-section, and is set in asphalt finish over the concrete, and a vertical flange 8, which edges the asphalt.
- the central section has a circular cross-section groove 9, which opens towards the gap G between the roadway sections and the opposite edge beam.
- Cross beams 10 are regularly spaced along the length of the joint, i.e. across the width of the roadway. They are of rolled steel sections.
- a spherical steel ball 14 is fixed, as by welding or pinning.
- the balls are sized to fit in the groove 9.
- the angle which the crossbeams make with the edge beams is determined by the fixed length of the crossbeams between the balls and the variable separation S of the edge beams. Whilst the edge beams remain parallel, the crossbeams will also remain parallel.
- a number of spacer balls are arranged in each groove 9 between each adjacent pair of crossbeam balls 14.
- the crossbeams support a number, seven as shown, of intermediate roadway beams 20. They are of general I-beam shape, with grooves 21 in their heads 22. The edge flanges 8 of the edge beams also have such grooves 21. Via these a diaphragm seal 23 is connected between each adjacent pair of roadway beams. These seals exclude water and dirt from the parts of the j oint beneath them.
- the heads of the roadway beams provide the roadway surface between the concrete of the roadway sections 2,3. Lower flanges 24 of the intermediate beams rest on the crossbeams. These transfer road loads to the edge beams via the balls 14.
- cams 31 are bolted 32 to the top side of the crossbeams 10. They have lips 33 that engage over the lower flanges 24 of the intermediate beams 20, captivating them against lifting off the crossbeams.
- the cams are contoured 35 to maintain the spacing of the intermediate beams in accordance with the Earlier Bridge Joint.
- edge, cross and intermediate beams and the ball ends of the cross beams will be of steel, it is anticipated that they could be of composite, polymer based materials, the beams being extruded and the balls moulded.
