TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of bridge construction and relates to an old deck arch bridge and a new cable-stayed bridge dismantling and building integrated construction method. BACKGROUND
[0002] The deck arch bridge is a common bridge type for crossing rivers and valleys in mountainous areas. The deck arch steel truss bridge uses arch ring to support the bridge deck system structure to be stable, but the net clearance under the bridge is small, and when the bridge under the bridge is upgraded, it needs to be dismantled and rebuilt. The cable-stayed bridge uses cables to transmit the bridge load to the cable tower, and the net clearance is high, which is the preferred bridge type for rebuilding bridges.
[0003] At present, for old bridge dismantling and reconstruction construction, the conventional construction sequence is: dismantling the old bridge-clearing the site-construction of the new bridge, and the construction period is long. Moreover, the arch bridge dismantling is different from other types of bridge dismantling. After the arch ring is opened, the cantilever section must be supported or slanted and hung. The conventional support method is the support method, but the support method has limitations in the river channel with navigation requirements, and the slanted and hung method needs to set up temporary facilities such as the tower, anchor and the like, which has a large amount of engineering, and when the new bridge is constructed, the slanted and hung system needs to be dismantled, which is a waste.
