Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of bridge construction engineering, and particularly relates to a wet joint structure of a steel-concrete composite structure bridge and a construction method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Steel-concrete composite bridges have been rapidly adopted in bridge construction in my country in recent years due to their advantages, including fast construction, minimal environmental impact, and labor savings. In steel-concrete composite bridges, wet joints, which connect the upper flange of the steel beam to the precast bridge deck, are a critical component of prefabricated steel-concrete composite bridge structures. The construction and construction methods of wet joints have become key technologies for achieving rapid and high-quality integration of steel beams and concrete decks.

[0003] To ensure the mechanical performance of the bridge deck, existing wet-joint structures in steel-concrete composite bridges typically weld the precast rebar of the precast decks on both sides together, then install the rebar along the wet joint, and finally pour the wet-joint concrete. The precast rebar of the precast decks on both sides of the wet joint is divided into two layers. Welding the upper layer of embedded rebar is relatively easy, but welding the lower layer of embedded rebar is very difficult due to the limited operating space, making it difficult to ensure welding quality and slow to connect, affecting the overall construction efficiency of the bridge. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To solve the above problems, the present invention discloses a wet joint structure and construction method for a steel-concrete composite structure bridge, which solves the problems of welding difficulties and difficulty in ensuring connection quality due to small space during conventional operations. It also has the functions of pull-out resistant connectors and shear resistant connectors, has a fast construction speed and a high degree of industrialization, significantly reduces the workload of on-site steel bar welding at wet joints, and improves the overall construction efficiency of the bridge.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0006] A wet joint structure of a steel-concrete composite bridge comprises a steel beam, a precast bridge deck and a wet joint, wherein the precast bridge deck is divided into a left precast bridge deck and a right precast bridge deck, concrete is poured in the wet joint, vertical studs are welded on the upper flange plate of the steel beam, the steel beam is arranged below between the left precast bridge deck and the right precast bridge deck, rubber pads are placed between the left and right precast bridge decks and the upper flange plates of the steel beam, the left and right precast bridge decks are both provided with upper and lower layers of embedded steel bars extending into the wet joint, the left and right precast bridge decks are provided with upper and lower layers of embedded steel bars extending into the wet joint, and the left and right precast bridge decks are provided with lower and upper layers of embedded steel bars extending into the wet joint. The embedded steel bars corresponding to the bridge deck are staggered and arranged adjacent to each other in the direction of the wet joint. The end of the lower layer of embedded steel bars of the left prefabricated bridge deck is bent downward and passes through the upper flange plate on the right side of the steel beam web and is fixedly connected to the upper flange plate of the steel beam through upper and lower nuts A. The end of the lower layer of embedded steel bars of the right prefabricated bridge deck is bent downward and passes through the upper flange plate on the left side of the steel beam web and is fixedly connected to the upper flange plate of the steel beam through upper and lower nuts B. The upper embedded steel bars of the left prefabricated bridge deck and the right prefabricated bridge deck are welded together.

[0007] Furthermore, the downwardly bent section of the end portion of the embedded steel bars in the lower layer of the prefabricated bridge deck is threaded.

[0008] Furthermore, the upper flange of the steel beam is provided with bolt holes that match the embedded steel bars in the lower layer of the prefabricated slab bridge deck.

[0009] Furthermore, a gasket is provided between the upper and lower nuts of the embedded steel bars in the lower layer of the prefabricated bridge deck and the upper flange plate of the steel beam.

[0010] Furthermore, steel bars are provided in the wet joint along the direction of the wet joint.

[0011] The construction method of the wet joint of the prefabricated assembled steel-concrete composite structure bridge of the present invention comprises the following specific steps:

[0012] a. Precast concrete bridge deck;

[0013] b. The steel beams are processed and manufactured in the factory. Studs are welded to the upper flange plates of the steel beams and bolt holes are opened to match the embedded steel bars in the lower layer of the precast slab bridge deck;

[0014] c. Erect steel beams on site and install rubber pads on the upper flange plates of the steel beams;

[0015] d. Install nuts on the downward-bent end of the embedded steel bars in the lower layer of the precast concrete bridge deck and tighten them to the top;

[0016] e. Hoist the precast concrete bridge deck into place on site, so that the downwardly bent end of the embedded steel bars in the lower layer passes through the corresponding bolt holes on the upper flange plate of the steel beam;

[0017] f. Tighten the upper nuts of the lower pre-embedded steel bars to the upper flange plate of the steel beam, install the lower nuts of the lower pre-embedded steel bars, and tighten them to the upper flange plate of the steel beam;

[0020] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0021] 1. This invention anchors and transmits force by bolting the lower layer of embedded steel bars in the precast concrete bridge deck to the upper flange plate of the steel beam. This solves the problem of difficult welding connection construction and poor connection quality between the lower layer embedded steel bars in conventional wet joints of precast bridge decks due to limited operating space.

[0022] 2. The connection structure between the lower layer of embedded steel bars in the precast concrete bridge deck and the upper flange plate of the steel beam in the present invention not only anchors and transmits force to the lower layer of embedded steel bars, but also serves as an anti-pullout connector, effectively enhancing the ability of the wet joint concrete to resist vertical separation and uplift caused by overall longitudinal bending of the beam, localized transverse bending, and transverse eccentric loading.

[0023] 3. In the ultimate load-bearing state of the composite beam, when the bridge deck and the upper flange of the steel beam slip relative to each other, the connection structure between the lower embedded steel bars of the precast concrete bridge deck and the upper flange of the steel beam in the present invention can also serve as a shear connector, thereby increasing the ultimate load-bearing capacity and safety reserve of the composite beam;

[0024] 4. In the present invention, the lower embedded steel bars of the precast concrete bridge deck are connected to the upper flange plate of the steel beam by bolts, which has a fast construction speed and a high degree of industrialization, significantly reduces the workload of on-site steel bar welding at wet joints, improves the overall construction efficiency of the bridge, and is in line with the development direction of bridge construction technology.
