Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of bridge anticorrosion coating monitoring, in particular to a suspension bridge main cable protective coating aging monitoring system. BACKGROUND

[0002] Bridge cable is an important load-bearing structure of bridge engineering, and its corrosion protection effect is related to the safety and service life of the bridge, including the main cable, sling, spreader cable of suspension bridge, various types of stay cable and related steel structural members.

[0003] Chinese patent ZL99119397.0 discloses a corrosion protection method for the main cable winding section of a suspension bridge, and the structure from inside to outside is: phosphating primer, non-sulfurized rubber non-drying sealant layer, winding steel wire or strip winding layer, phosphating primer layer, epoxy cloud iron primer layer, polysulfide type waterproof sealant layer, and non-yellowing polyurethane topcoat layer. This technology has achieved positive results in engineering application for more than ten years. However, since the polysulfide waterproof sealant layer uses a two-component polysulfide sealant, which is a two-component product that needs to be mixed on site before use, manual mixing or high-speed dispersion machine mixing under normal pressure is easy to mix a large amount of air, which significantly reduces the shielding performance of the waterproof sealant layer, and the corrosion medium such as water vapor can easily penetrate, significantly reducing the sealing and waterproof performance. In addition, the polysulfide sealant has high viscosity, and it is difficult to scrape and surface finish on site, which reduces work efficiency and significantly increases construction cost.

[0004] After the main cable is finished with corrosion and fire protection, a layer of anticorrosion coating is coated on the outermost layer. The damage of the anticorrosion coating will threaten the internal main cable structure, so it is necessary to detect the anticorrosion coating. However, the anticorrosion coating damage at the gap of the cable clamp structure is the most difficult to detect, causing detection loopholes.
