PREFORMED ELASTOMERIC BRIDGE JOINT SEALERS: INTERIM GUIDE FOR DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF JOINTS

As a result of several years of research that culminated in the construction of two experimental bridges, it now becomes possible to present engineers with procedures for the design and construction of adequately sealed bridge joints. These procedures are offered as an interim solution until research provides further evidence or improvements or both. The paper suggests armored joint construction sealed with preformed elastomeric sealers as the most advantageous solution to the problem of sealing joints in bridges.
