As an arch-beam combination system that combines the advantages of arches and beams, the steel box tie arch bridge fully exerts the combined effect of beam bending and arch compression. By tensioning the tie cables to offset the horizontal force of the arch ribs, the bridge piers do not need to bear horizontal forces; this type of bridge can minimize the bridge deck elevation, shorten the bridge length, save engineering costs, and make up for the high foundation requirements of arch bridges and the lack of aesthetics of ordinary bridges, becoming the preferred bridge type on the waterway.

[0003] In the prior art, during the construction of steel box tied arch bridges, due to the great difficulties in the construction method of large steel components, the method of prefabrication in sections and assembly on site is often adopted.

[0071] An installation and construction process for a steel box tied arch bridge comprises the following steps:

[0072] (1) Carry out the basic structure construction of the steel box tied arch bridge, including pile foundation construction, concrete cap and pier construction, and arch foot structure construction;

[0084] The steel box arch rib is constructed by a gantry crane and a crawler crane. When constructing the middle span steel box arch rib, the ribs are assembled uniformly in the order of closing from both ends of the middle span to the center. In step (6), the ribs are assembled uniformly in the order of closing from both ends to the middle span. Each arch rib segment is provided with four lifting points.

[0096] The construction method of the present invention has little impact on traffic, requires less temporary facilities, effectively utilizes the stiffness of the tie beam itself, and reduces the designed load; the construction period is shorter, the construction safety factor is high, the longitudinal movement and rotation of the bridge are avoided, and the construction difficulty is greatly reduced.

[0097] The construction method of the present invention is different from the conventional method of installing the two ends symmetrically toward the center, and mainly adopts an asymmetrical installation method, which is combined with a symmetrical installation method to reduce the large amount of engineering work during symmetrical construction, and can accurately control the positioning and deformation of the arch rib and the main beam structure, thereby ensuring the force requirements of the arch rib and greatly improving the accuracy and convenience of construction.

[0098] Compared with the existing overall lifting method, the construction method of the present invention reduces the workload of high-altitude operations, and on the other hand reduces the deformation of the arch ribs during the lifting process, ensuring that the arch rib line shape is reasonable when the bridge is completed, and avoiding residual deformation caused by uneven force on the arch ribs.
