Since 1996, the extent of integral bridge construction has
grown significantly and preferred forms of construction and
construction details have developed. This Technical Report
presents an overview of the forms that have been most
commonly chosen for bridges with composite decks and
discusses the details and the reasons for their adoption.
It presents a brief summary of current practice, based
on the experience of designers and constructors activelyinvolved in the construction of integral steel bridges. The
report identifies the three principal configurations that are
most commonly chosen and presents data about the numbers
and types of steel highway bridge that have been built in the
period since 2000. For each of the three configurations, the
form of construction of the end supports are described and
illustrated, and the particular design and construction issues
are discussed.
The effect of skew on the design of the end supports is also
discussed, the junction with the road pavement is mentioned
and the choices for intermediate supports are presented.PRICES: Non-member £20

Liquid Metal Assisted Cracking (LMAC) can occur when steel
components come in to contact with molten zinc. This form of
cracking is uncommon but if it is not detected and repaired it
can have extremely serious consequences on the perform-ance of the structure. It is generally agreed that there are
three main prerequisites for LMAC to occur. These are:
• Stress level
• Material Susceptibility
• Liquid Metal
Although the relative importance and the inter-relationship
between these issues in increasing the risk of LMAC are
largely unknown there is strong evidence to suggest that care-
ful consideration of these issues with respect to the following
activities can reduce the risk of LMAC:
• Design and detailing
• Type and quality of steel
• Quality of fabrication
• The Galvanizing process
This publication provides practical guidance to clients,
specifiers and engineers on each of these topics to identify
circumstances where any increased risk of LMAC can be
ameliorated.
A post galvanized inspection regime is also suggested as a
pragmatic approach to reducing the potential consequencesof LMAC. It is recommended that the Engineer should specify
100% visual inspection after galvanizing for all structural steel-
work that is to be utilised in building construction. In the event
some LMAC cracks are found non-destructive testing (NDT)
using Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) is recommended to
determine the extent of cracking. Finally a welding repair pro-
cedure is described for repairing most cracks in a galvanized
component. This involves removing the zinc from around the
area to be welded, repairing the crack and restoring the pro-
tective coating with a zinc rich paint or similar system.
By following the guidance given in this publication and by
committing a modest amount of attention to detail at each
stage of the construction process the chances of LMAC oc-
curring can be substantially reduced.
