Simulation of pavement deformations for different approach SLABS concept constructed on Batu Pahat Soft Clay (BPSC)

Depression or bump that occurs between end of bridge approach slab and road pavement interface always arises a great concern among motorists. The occurrence of the bump that motorist feel as they leaves or approaches the bridge is caused by the differential settlement problem. This problem bec...
