For the practical use of the GRS integral bridge where making to high performance was confirmed by the model experiment etc, the examination bridge was constructed, and field observation is continued now. When practical use develops, it is not established now though the establishment of the design method becomes necessary indispensable. However, it is thought that the reinforced soil method and the design method of a rigid frame viaduct can be applied from the mechanism of this structural behavior. Then, it designed to the bridge based on these design methods, and the feature concerning the design was arranged in this examination.
