Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of bridge engineering, and particularly relates to a widened structure for new and old bridges that improves the influence of shrinkage and creep differences and a construction method therefor. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid expansion of traffic flow in China, the load pressure borne by highway bridges has been continuously rising, resulting in the fact that the traffic capacity of existing roads has gradually been unable to match the increasing traffic demand. Compared with new highway projects, the reconstruction and expansion of existing highways show significant advantages in controlling investment costs and shortening the construction period. The reconstruction and expansion of highways will become the main strategy to promote highway widening. On the premise of balancing economy and practicability, by implementing widening and strengthening treatments on existing bridges, not only can the safety and stability of the bridges be ensured, but also the original bridge structure can be efficiently utilized to maximize its economic value.
[0003] Currently, when considering the long-term creep influence of the new bridge during the widening process of new and old bridges, the existing structural forms cannot well connect the new and old bridges and ensure relative displacement, nor do they consider the influence on the structure caused by the longitudinal shrinkage and creep effect of the new bridge. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: A widened structure for new and old bridges to improve the influence of shrinkage and creep differences, including old bridge box girders and new bridge box girders arranged left and right. At the widened part between the old bridge box girder and the new bridge box girder, there are asphalt concrete paving layers, zinc-containing steel plates, waterproof coiled materials, steel rib plates, soft wood blocks and longitudinal steel plates. The steel rib plates are arranged under the flange plates of the old bridge box girder and press against the flange plates of the old bridge box girder. A number of the longitudinal steel plates are arranged at intervals along the longitudinal direction of the bridge. Each longitudinal steel plate is placed vertically, and both the left and right ends are respectively inserted into the flange plates of the old bridge box girder and the new bridge box girder and welded to the stress-bearing steel bars in the corresponding box girder. Grooves are left at both ends of each longitudinal steel plate, and the soft wood blocks are filled in the grooves at both ends of the longitudinal steel plate. The zinc-containing steel plate is arranged vertically between two adjacent longitudinal steel plates. The front and rear ends of the zinc-containing steel plate are respectively welded to the middle parts of the two longitudinal steel plates. The upper part of the zinc-containing steel plate extends out of the top of the longitudinal steel plate, and the waterproof coiled materials are laid on both the left and right sides of the extended part. The asphalt concrete paving layer at the widened part is laid on the top of the waterproof coiled material and the zinc-containing steel plate. A longitudinal cutting seam is opened at the left and right central positions on the surface of the asphalt concrete paving layer at the widened part. The depth of the cutting seam is half of the laying thickness of the asphalt concrete paving layer at the widened part, and the cutting seam is filled with asphalt mastic. The widths of the longitudinal steel plate, the waterproof coiled material and the asphalt concrete paving layer at the widened part increase in a stepped manner.
[0006] Preferably, the steel rib plates are fixedly connected to the old bridge box girder by high-strength bolts to strengthen the structural strength of the old bridge.
[0007] Preferably, a group of high-strength bolts are provided on both the front and rear sides of each steel rib plate. Each group of high-strength bolts has 3 to 5 roots and is arranged at intervals left and right to make the force balanced.
[0008] Preferably, the top of the waterproof coiled material is flush with the top of the zinc-containing steel plate, and the bottom of the zinc-containing steel plate is flush with the bottom of the longitudinal steel plate.
[0009] Preferably, an asphalt felt waterproof layer is provided above the waterproof coiled material and the zinc-containing steel plate.
[0010] Preferably, welding plates are provided at both ends of the longitudinal steel plate, and the longitudinal steel plate is welded to the stress-bearing steel bars through the welding plates to increase the welding area.
[0011] A construction method for improving the influence of shrinkage and creep differences in the widening of new and old bridges adopts a widened structure for new and old bridges to improve the influence of shrinkage and creep differences, and the steps are as follows:
[0012] Step 1: Close the adjacent lanes for construction of the old bridge box girder and the new bridge box girder, remove the guardrails of the old bridge box girder, and chisel the concrete paving within the width range of the flange plate of the old bridge box girder to expose the stress-bearing steel bars;
[0013] Step 2: Drill bolt connection holes at the lower part of the flange plate of the old bridge box girder, and install the profiled steel rib plates at the lower part of the old bridge box girder through high-strength bolts;
[0014] Step 3: Chisel out soft wood blocks and longitudinal steel plate installation positions at the corresponding positions of the old bridge box girder and the new bridge box girder, install the longitudinal steel plates, and weld the two ends of the longitudinal steel plates to the corresponding stress-bearing steel bars respectively; Fill soft wood blocks on the front and back sides of the end of the welded longitudinal steel plate;
[0015] Step 4: Install zinc-containing steel plates between adjacent longitudinal steel plates and weld them in place; Fill polyurethane waterproof coiled materials on the left and right of the protruding part of the zinc-containing steel plate, and install an asphalt felt waterproof layer above the zinc-containing steel plate and the polyurethane waterproof coiled materials;
[0016] Step 5: Pour the cast-in-place layer of the old bridge waterproof concrete and the cast-in-place layer of the new bridge waterproof concrete respectively within the full bridge range of the old bridge box girder and the new bridge box girder, and the pouring height is flush with the polyurethane waterproof coiled materials;
[0017] Step 6: Pour the asphalt concrete paving layer at the widened part above the zinc-containing steel plate and the polyurethane waterproof coiled materials, and the asphalt concrete paving layer at the widened part is flush and connected with the asphalt concrete paving layer of the old bridge and the asphalt concrete paving layer of the new bridge;
[0018] Step 7: Cut a longitudinal joint along the longitudinal bridge direction at the center position of the left and right of the asphalt concrete surface layer of the asphalt concrete paving layer at the widened part, and the depth of the joint is half of the thickness of the asphalt concrete paving layer at the widened part; Fill asphalt mastic in the joint;
[0019] Step 8: After the construction is completed, resume traffic;
[0020] Step 9: In the late stage of creep of the new bridge box girder, close the traffic and chisel out the damaged asphalt concrete paving layer above the joint;
[0021] Step 10: Pour concrete into the adjacent zinc-containing steel plates;
[0022] Step 11: Re-lay the asphalt concrete paving layer at the position where it was chiseled out in Step 9, and cut the longitudinal joint and fill asphalt mastic again along the longitudinal bridge direction according to Step 7;
[0023] Step 12: After the construction is completed, resume traffic.
[0024] The beneficial effects of the present invention:
[0025] 1) Utilize the welding of the longitudinal steel plates and the stress-bearing steel bars to fix the positions of the old and new bridges, ensure that the structures of the old and new bridges are integrated, and enable the overall joint force of the old and new bridges; At the same time, it is convenient for the installation and alignment of the soft wood blocks. Install soft wood blocks at both ends of the longitudinal steel plates. When the new bridge undergoes longitudinal contraction, the soft wood blocks are used for buffering to reduce the damage to the old bridge caused after the widening of the old and new bridges;
[0026] 2) Vertically insert zinc - containing steel plates between two adjacent longitudinal steel plates to enhance the overall structural strength. Waterproof coiled materials are installed on the left and right sides of the part of the zinc - containing steel plate that extends out of the longitudinal steel plate. Asphalt concrete paving is carried out on it, and then half of the thickness of the asphalt layer is cut from the center position on the left and right of the asphalt layer surface, and asphalt mastic is filled in the cutting seam. When the widened part is affected by the creep of the new bridge, the asphalt mastic can absorb and disperse stress, so that the damage only occurs at the position of the mastic, avoiding the influence of shrinkage creep on the bridge deck pavement layer, and improving the durability, driving comfort and overall stability of the structure;
[0027] 3) The widened structure of the present invention for connecting new and old bridges saves the materials and costs of other anchoring connectors, connects the new and old bridges together, and strengthens the structural strength of the old bridge by steel rib plates at the cantilever section of the old bridge.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0032] In order to better understand the improvements made by the present invention compared with the prior art, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0033] As Figure 1 shown, a widened structure of new and old bridges for improving the influence of shrinkage creep difference has old bridge box girders 15 and new bridge box girders 16 arranged left and right. The widened structure between the old bridge box girder 15 and the new bridge box girder 16 mainly consists of an asphalt concrete pavement layer 3 at the widened part, a zinc - containing steel plate 6, a waterproof coiled material 7, a steel rib plate 11, a soft wood block 13 and a longitudinal steel plate 14.
[0034] As Figure 2As shown, in order to strengthen the structural strength of the old bridge box girder 15, the steel rib plate 11 is arranged below the flange plate of the old bridge box girder 15 and presses against the flange plate of the old bridge box girder 15, and the steel rib plate 11 is fixedly connected to the old bridge box girder 15 by high-strength bolts 10. In order to make the structure stress balanced and facilitate construction, each steel rib plate 11 is equipped with a group of high-strength bolts 10 on both sides, and each group of high-strength bolts 10 is provided with 3 to 5 bolts, which are arranged at intervals on the left and right.
[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, in order to make the new and old bridge structures connected as one and bear stress together, a number of longitudinal steel plates 14 are arranged between the old bridge box girder 15 and the new bridge box girder 16 along the longitudinal direction of the bridge. Each longitudinal steel plate 14 is placed vertically and its left and right ends are respectively inserted into the flange plates of the old bridge box girder 15 and the new bridge box girder 16 and welded to the stress-bearing steel bars 12 in the corresponding box girder. Welding plates 18 are provided at both ends of the longitudinal steel plate 14, and the longitudinal steel plate 14 is welded to the stress-bearing steel bars 12 through the welding plates 18 to increase the welding area. Grooves are left at both ends of each longitudinal steel plate 14, and cork blocks 13 are filled in the grooves at both ends of the longitudinal steel plate 14. When the new bridge shrinks longitudinally, the cork blocks 13 provide buffering to reduce the damage to the old bridge caused by the widening of the new and old bridges.
[0036] A zinc-containing steel plate 6 is vertically arranged between two adjacent longitudinal steel plates 14, and the front and rear ends of the zinc-containing steel plate 6 are respectively welded to the middle of the two longitudinal steel plates 14, and the bottom of the zinc-containing steel plate 6 is flush with the bottom of the longitudinal steel plate 14. The upper part of the zinc-containing steel plate 6 extends out of the top of the longitudinal steel plate 14. Waterproofing coiled materials 7 are laid on the left and right sides of the extended part of the zinc-containing steel plate 6, and the top of the waterproofing coiled materials 7 is flush with the top of the zinc-containing steel plate 6, and an asphalt felt waterproofing layer 4 is arranged above the waterproofing coiled materials 7 and the zinc-containing steel plate 6.
[0037] The asphalt concrete pavement layer 3 at the widening part is laid on the top of the waterproof coiled material 7 and the zinc-containing steel plate 6. A slit is opened along the longitudinal direction of the bridge at the center of the surface of the asphalt concrete pavement layer 3 at the widening part. The depth of the slit is half of the laying thickness of the asphalt concrete pavement layer 3 at the widening part. The slit is filled with asphalt horseshoe grease 5. When the widening part is affected by the creep of the new bridge, the asphalt horseshoe grease 5 can absorb and disperse the stress, so that the damage only occurs at the position of the asphalt horseshoe grease 5, avoiding the bridge deck pavement layer from being affected by the shrinkage creep. At the same time, the width of the longitudinal steel plate 14, the width of the waterproof coiled material 7, and the width of the asphalt concrete pavement layer 3 at the widening part are increased in a step-by-step manner, which is convenient for construction.
