Topic: Recent Developments Integral Abutment Bridges Considering Soil-Structure Interaction
Abstract: Integral Abutment Bridges (IABs) have gained significant popularity worldwide, being recognized for their resilience and efficiency. Their unique design philosophy and structural characteristics, which seamlessly integrate abutments and superstructures, minimize the need for expansion joints, thereby reducing vulnerability to wear and deterioration. This simplicity not only enhances structural robustness but also facilitates cost-effective construction and maintenance throughout their service life. One of the key advantages of IABs is their superior seismic performance, which is attributed to the continuous connection between abutments and the superstructure. This design mitigates the risk of joint failure during seismic events, ensuring the integrity of the bridge. The reduced number of components and the efficient load transfer mechanism contribute to a more resilient and durable bridge system. Their widespread adoption across North America, Europe, and Asia reflects their appeal to road and railway agencies globally. The mechanical behavior of IABs is significantly governed by the interaction between the backfill soil, pile foundation, and abutment, which strongly influences their response during earthquakes. Designing IABs poses challenges, particularly in managing displacement due to shrinkage, creep, thermal effects, and soil-structure interaction. These issues require careful consideration to prevent damage during the bridge’s service life and under seismic events. This keynote speech discusses recent advancements in IABs with a focus on soil-structure interaction, highlighting how these innovations enhance the resilience and sustainability of these bridges in diverse environments.

Topic: Hydrologic Performance of Permeable Pavements Under Extreme and Regular Rainfall Conditions
Abstract: Permeable pavement (PP) provides stormwater infiltration at source through permeable surface without occupying extra space and receives lots of attention in research and engineering applications worldwide. However, the hydrologic performance of PP under extreme and regular rainfall conditions and their differences have not been well understood, especially through field experiments. This study quantified the runoff mitigation and retention capacity of seven types of PP under different rainfall conditions using artificial rainfall experiments and field monitoring. The results showed that most PP tested in this study generally exhibited good hydrologic performance during extreme and regular rainfall events when they were newly constructed (runoff peak reduction ≥ 52 %). However, porous blocks showed a significant decay in runoff peak reduction (≥ 40 %) after one year of service. Grass cover, resin bound surface, and permeable interlock concrete paver panels performed the best without detectable performance decay. The hydrologic performance of PP can vary in response to different rainfall conditions due to the variation in rainfall-runoff generation mechanisms. Infiltration excess runoff (i.e., permeability of surface layer lower than rainfall input) dominates in events high in intensity and short in duration, while saturation excess runoff (i.e., PP subbase filled up with water) dominates in events low in intensity and long in duration. Based on the mechanisms, the dominant factors that govern the hydrologic performance of PP under different rainfall conditions can be further concisely identified.
