Recently, the composite deck has emerged as a promising alternative to a concrete deck for bridge structures. This type of deck has many advantages. It utilizes a lightweight and high-strength material, has good resistance against corrosion, and is highly durable. This paper gives a brief description of the developing procedure of two types of composite decks. The first of these uses a tongue-and-groove connection and the second a snap-fit connection. The snap-fit connection significantly lowers the cost and improves the quality of construction compared to conventional construction techniques that use composite decks with tongue-and-groove connections. Recent applications of these types of composite decks are also presented including the world’s largest composite-deck bridge in Korea. |
