Expansion Joint is a material that is installed between two areas of concrete floors joints to accommodate expansion of the bridge structures and materials deformation due to temperature changes, and physical properties (creep and shrinkage) of the bridge. There are various types and materials of expansion joint. A case study of expansion joint analysis is discussed. It is concluded that expansion joint type in bridge should consider the use of local raw materials, the easiness of maintenance, the comfort and safety for road users, costs, schedule, and the installation works.
