The application discloses a
greening box, a bridge, and an application method for spanning bridge expansion joints, relating to the field of bridge
landscaping. It includes base stones placed on both sides of the same
expansion joint on the
bridge deck, forming a receiving space spanning the
expansion joint. A
greening box for holding plants is placed within this space. Green plants are planted inside the box, integrating with other green belts on the
bridge deck to ensure the integrity of the
greening and enhance its protective function. The top of the greening box also features an inward-facing folded surface and a folded lug. The folded surface is at the same height as the base stone, maintaining the continuity of the base stone and improving aesthetics while preventing pedestrians from falling and hitting the greening box. The folded lug provides support and protection for the green plants inside the box, preventing them from tipping over in
extreme weather and further improving the neatness of the greening. A damage-resistant pad is placed at the contact point between the greening box and the base stone to prevent
wear and tear on the bottom of the greening box when the base stone deforms and shifts with the
bridge deck.
