Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of bridge construction, and particularly relates to a method for installing a split bunch of high-position and long-distance horizontal cables suitable for arch rib lifting. Background Art
[0002] In the construction of modern long-span arch bridges, arch rib lifting construction is a key link. To ensure the structural stability of the arch rib during the lifting process, it is an essential process to tension and pre-tighten the arch rib with horizontal cables. With the development of bridge construction technology, more and more bridge projects need to cross complex terrains and water areas. For example, in a bridge construction project across the Yellow River channel, the arch rib is often at a high altitude, and the water flow in the underlying river channel is complex and the traffic is busy, resulting in difficulties in carrying out traditional horizontal cable hoisting operations.
[0003] Currently, in engineering, a method of building a full-length temporary working platform outside the upper chord members is often used for the deployment and installation of horizontal cables.
[0004] However, this temporary working platform has many drawbacks; First: In terms of construction efficiency, the construction and disassembly of the temporary working platform both require a large amount of time and manpower, greatly prolonging the overall construction period; Second: From a safety perspective, the construction, use, and disassembly operations of the platform in a high-altitude environment not only increase the working intensity of construction workers but also face multiple safety risks such as high-altitude falls and object strikes. Once an accident occurs, the consequences are unimaginable.
[0005] Based on this, the present invention designs a method for installing a split bunch of high-position and long-distance horizontal cables suitable for arch rib lifting to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

Step 5: Repeat the above Step 4 until all the horizontal cable steel strands are anchored on both sides of the arch rib.
[0008] Furthermore, the construction platform includes channel steel, I-beam and steel plate. There are multiple channel steels, all of which are fixedly connected to the I-beam. The upper end of the I-beam is fixedly connected to the steel plate. The steel plate is connected to the transmission cable device. The upper end of the left steel plate is fixedly connected to the vertical traction winch, and the I-beam is welded to the main body of the bridge.
[0009] Furthermore, the thickness of the steel plate is 5 mm.
[0010] Furthermore, the main body of the bridge includes a steel beam, lifting tower frames and brackets. The steel beam is an integral frame composed of multiple steel frames welded together. There are two lifting tower frames, which are respectively fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the upper end of the steel beam. There are multiple brackets, all of which are fixedly installed on the upper end of the steel beam. The brackets are installed at the lower end of the arch rib to support the arch rib, and the I-beam is welded to the lifting tower frame.
[0011] Furthermore, the welding method of the I-beam and the lifting tower frame adopts double-sided welding or single-sided welding.
[0012] Furthermore, the transmission cable device includes a horizontal transmission winch, a fixed pulley and a traction rope. The traction rope is wound around the drum of the horizontal transmission winch for N turns, and the traction rope is sleeved on the outer end of the fixed pulley.
[0013] Furthermore, N is 5.
[0014] Furthermore, the upper end of the left steel plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the fixed pulley, and the upper end of the right steel plate is fixedly connected to the horizontal transmission winch.
