“…The good bonding condition between adjacent layers can help the asphalt concrete surface course and the steel deck pavement form an integral structure to resist the external loads, on the contrary, the weak bonding between adjacent layer is disadvantage for steel deck pavement and prone to cause deck pavement diseases. In some of previous researches 4 , 6 , 8 , 13 – 16 , full-bond condition and no-bond condition are two commonly bonding condition between adjacent layers, however, a few researchers hold that the interlayer bonding condition of adjacent layers lies in somewhere between full-bond condition and no-bond condition 5 , 11 , 12 , 17 . In a recent study 18 , the ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) has been utilized to reinforce the orthotropic steel bridge, which is an innovative cement-based material for enhancing the stiffness of bridge deck and improving the fatigue performance.…”
