Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of prefabricated buildings, and in particular to a steel-concrete composite trough beam and a design method thereof. Background Art
[0002] A trough-beam bridge, with its deck located at the bottom between the main girders, is a through-type bridge. Trough beams are a bridge type designed to reduce the height from the bridge deck to the beam bottom, thereby increasing the clearance under the bridge. Trough beams offer excellent practicality: their greatest advantage is their low construction height, making them suitable for overpasses. While maintaining clearance requirements under the bridge, they can lower the elevation of the embankments at both ends, thereby reducing connection lengths and the amount of roadbed fill.
[0003] However, trough beams have significant mechanical disadvantages: the bridge deck lies below the neutral axis, subjecting the entire deck section to tension. Concrete trough beams require prestressing to resist tension. Alternatively, steel trough beams can be used, but the steel structure in the compression zone is prone to buckling.
[0004] The above problems need to be solved urgently. Therefore, a steel-concrete composite trough beam and its design method are proposed. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is how to solve the problems existing in the existing trough beam technology, such as the bridge deck being located below the neutral axis and the entire section of the bridge deck being under tension, and a design method for a steel-concrete composite trough beam is provided.
[0006] The present invention solves the above technical problems through the following technical solutions, which include the following steps:

[0018] Step S6: Repeat steps S2 to S5 until the neutral axis position h of the cross section of the combination formed by the trough main beam and the steel bottom beam is z Height h from steel bottom beam s The ratio is within the set range.
[0019] Step S7: Calculate the bending bearing capacity of the cross-section of the trough beam designed in steps S1 to S6, and verify the bending bearing capacity to determine whether it meets the design requirements for bearing capacity. The bending bearing capacity calculation formula is as follows:

[0022] Furthermore, in step S1, the height h of the steel bottom beam is sThe initial value is 1 / 40 to 1 / 50 of the bridge span.
[0023] Furthermore, in step S3, the specific processing process is as follows:
[0024] Step S31: Calculate the static moment of the cross section of the trough main beam:
[0025]
[0026] Among them, S x dA is the static moment of the cross section of the trough main beam to the top surface of the steel bottom beam, c represents the differential of the cross-sectional area of the trough main beam, and x represents dA c Distance to the top surface of the steel bottom beam;
[0027] Step S32: Calculate the distance between the elastic neutral axis of the trough main beam and the top surface of the steel bottom beam, that is, the elastic neutral axis position h of the trough main beam 3 c :
