AI Technical Summary
In the existing technology, the only way to fix the U-rib plate of the interlocking section is to use steel gaskets for single-sided welding or bolting. This leads to stress concentration at the joint during bridge service, which can easily cause fatigue cracking and create safety hazards.
The double-sided welding process of the U-rib plate of the patch section of the orthogonal steel structure bridge is adopted. The welding of the inner weld of the U-rib of the patch section is carried out by the U-rib inner welding robot, and the ultrasonic impact method is combined to realize the double-sided welding of the U-rib plate of the patch section with the adjacent U-rib and the bridge deck, thereby reducing stress concentration.
It effectively improved the stress distribution at the welded joint of the U-rib plate in the patch section, thereby increasing the fatigue life and safety of the bridge.
