PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an expansion joint for a bridge that can sufficiently absorb large separation between bridges while facilitating work execution and dispensing with a constituent member with the possibility of causing a fall accident or noise, and to provide an expansion limiting device facilitating work execution and hardly having the possibility of causing the fall accident or noise. ;SOLUTION: Receiving plates 3 in the horizontal state are respectively embedded in the respective end faces of opposed bridges H, H so as to be able to be pulled out by the fixed quantity. A joint body J is suspended between the receiving plate 3 parts protruded from the respective bridges H, and fastened by bolts to form an expansion joint for a bridge. In an expansion limiting device 4, each end of high tension sheet material 40 or a high tension wire is supported by a fitting plate 41 which is a part to be fastened or bolt-fastened to the receiving plate 3, and the high tension sheet material 40 or high tension wire is in a loosened state at the time of normal distance between the bridges H, H. In the expansion limiting device 4, each end of the high tension sheet material 40 or high tension wire is supported by the fitting plate 41.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2000,JPO
