[0002] Bridge expansion joints are important facilities for bridges to adapt to organic deformation under the action of temperature, load and concrete shrinkage and creep. They directly bear the dynamic impact of wheel loads, perennial wear and tear, and are directly affected by environmental pollution such as atmosphere, rain, oil, mud and sand. They are the most vulnerable parts of the bridge structure. If the bridge expansion joints are damaged, the joints will sink and inconsistent steps will appear. In severe cases, traffic accidents may occur, which will have a great adverse impact on bridge safety.
