Abstract:
This author read the article "Joint Grouting in Alaskan Bridges and Dock Decks" (Concrete International, February 1996) with great interest. The author, D. Nottingham, indicates tehre are design and construction conditions, along with material selection considerations, that are required to achieve properly functioning grouted precast bridge shear keyways in side-by-side members. As an interested observer in this keyway grouting problem for precast bridge decks, a few comments are in order to amplify Mr. Nottingham's fine article.
