The utility model provides a
bridge deck structure for reducing the design elevation of a sea-crossing railway bridge, which relates to the technical field of bridges and comprises a wave wall, a plurality of drainage devices, a drainage slope and a
ballast retaining wall. The wave wall is vertically arranged on the edge of the outer side of the bridge
cantilever. The drainage devices are arranged at the root of the bridge
cantilever at equal intervals and perpendicularly penetrate through the bridge
cantilever. The drainage slopes are arranged on the two sides of the drainage device, and the toes of the drainage slopes are connected with the drainage device. The
ballast blocking wall is provided with one side, close to the center line of the bridge floor, of the drainage device, a transversely-through drainage hole is formed in the position, close to the drainage device, of the
ballast blocking wall, and a
pipe grate is installed on the side, close to the center line of the bridge floor, of the drainage hole. By arranging the wave wall,
seawater is prevented from entering the bridge floor, and the design height of the cross-sea railway bridge is effectively reduced. One-way drainage is achieved through a
flap valve in the drainage device,
seawater is prevented from flowing backwards from a drainage
pipe when the
wave height exceeds the bridge floor height, the
flap valve is replaceable, and later maintenance is facilitated.
