Prestressed concrete continuous truss frame arched bridge

Abstract

The arch bridge is composed of upper chord, lower chord, upright posts, inclined bars, anchoring wall at bridge abutment. Supported by arch support, lower chord through upright posts, inclined bars supports upper chord. The upper chord as a continuous beam is articulated on anchoring wall at bridge abutment through hinges at two ends. There is contraction-joint between upper chord and anchoring wall at bridge abutment. The invention raises integrity of bridge, reduces deflection, vibration and jigging motion providing advantages of improving trafficked effect and durability of bridge. Comparing with box ribbed arch bridges, truss bridges etc, the invented arch bridge possesses general superiorities suitable to use in each classified highways.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a bridge, in particular to a continuous truss arch bridge. technical background: [0002] In the prior art, the truss-type composite arch bridge has a high degree of safety during the cantilever construction process across high canyons and deep valleys. After the bridge is completed, the cost per unit area is relatively low, and it has obvious advantages in the arch bridge without support construction. However, in the history of more than 20 years since its establishment, some problems have not been fundamentally resolved, that is, there are expansion joints at the junction of the side truss cantilever beams and the middle truss arch. Due to the complete disconnection of the upper chord, the main The integrity of the upper structure of the hole is poor. When heavy vehicles pass by quickly, there will be obvious vibration on the bridge, and its dynamic performance is worse than that of the cast-in-place box arch bridge. This m...

Problems solved by technology

However, in the history of more than 20 years since its establishment, some problems have not been fundamentally resolved, that is, there are expansion joints at the junction of the side truss cantilever beams and the middle truss arch. Due to the complete disconnection of the upper chord, the main The integrity of the upper structure of the hole is poor. When heavy vehicles pass by quickly, there will be obvious vibration on the bridge, and its dynamic performance is worse than that of cast-in-place box arch bridges.

This makes the truss composite arch bridge only used with caution on secondary roads and limited to highways

[0003] The fundamental reasons for the above-mentioned defects in the truss composite arch bridge are: (1) the lower chord at the expansion joint is subjected to complex internal forces
