In order to lengthen the integral abutment bridge (IAB), pile-to-pilecap performance is one of the most important parts of the bridge since IABs have no expansion joints. Therefore, this study intended to develop four new types of pile-to-pilecap connections to improve the IAB performance using numerical analysis. Developed connections allow larger displacement and successfully control the crack generations.
