Cover Story: This review presents the evolution and performance of continuity connections in multi-span precast prestressed girder bridges. It explores partial and full integration techniques, including those for UHPC joints, bent bar and strand systems, and mechanical splices. These methods enhance structural integrity, reduce maintenance, and improve seismic resilience. This paper emphasizes current challenges, innovations in design, and the potential of advanced materials and detailing in meeting the demands of modern infrastructure. View this paper
