Abstract
Nowadays the methods of bridge construction is changing all over the world. The new innovative methods are developed and adopted over the traditional construction method as per the requirement of the field and the structural requirement. In this paper introduced a brief understanding of the concept of Integral Abutment Bridge and it’s working. We tried to give an idea about the procedure of construction of the Integral Abutment Bridge and explains its structural benefits. There are several advantages of the Integral Abutment Bridge over the conventional bridge system they also elaborate on this paper. The paper listed the different types of bridges and different types of the Integral Abutment Bridge. It tries to explain the need of Integral Abutment Bridge in specific areas where maintenance cost is way more And the damages due to leakage and corrosion of the bridge components is a major problem. The structural system has the potential to fulfill the requirements and demands of the structural requirement. The paper presents an elaborate comparison of the integral abutment system with the conventional bridge system.
