Epoxy asphalt concrete paving on the deck of long-span steel bridges

It is the first systematic research in the world on the composition design of epoxy asphalt concrete as paving material. Material characteristics and service performance of mixture, fatigue resistance characteristics of epoxy asphalt concrete by the fatigue test of complex beam have also been described. This research indicates that epoxy asphalt concrete is a good type of paving material. Research results have been applied successfully in the paving of steel deck of the Second Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge (SNYRB). It provides a new paving type for long-span steel bridges of China and has a bright application prospect.
