Numerical Analysis of the Behavior of an IPM Bridge According to Super-Structure and Sub-Structure Properties

A bridge with an integrated and pile-bent abutment with a mechanically stabilized earth-wall (IPM) was developed by separating earth pressure from the abutment to overcome the problems typically faced by integral abutment bridges. Also, the IPM bridge removes expansion joints and bearing by integrat...
