Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of bridge construction, and particularly relates to a method for split-beam installation 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, tensioning and pre-tightening the arch rib with horizontal cables is an essential process. With the development of bridge construction technology, more and more bridge projects need to cross complex terrains and water areas. For example, in bridge construction projects crossing 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, the method of erecting a full-length temporary operation platform outside the upper chord members is often used for the deployment and installation operations of horizontal cables.
[0004] However, this temporary operation platform has many drawbacks;
[0005] First: In terms of construction efficiency, the erection and disassembly of the temporary operation platform both require a large amount of time and manpower, greatly extending the overall construction period;
[0006] Second: From a safety perspective, the operations of erecting, using, and disassembling the platform in a high-altitude environment not only increase the work intensity of construction workers but also face multiple safety risks such as high-altitude falls and object strikes. Once an accident occurs, the consequences will be unimaginable.
[0007] Based on this, the present invention designs a method for split-beam installation of high-position and long-distance horizontal cables suitable for arch rib lifting to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0008] In view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art, the present invention provides a method for split-beam installation of high-position and long-distance horizontal cables suitable for arch rib lifting.
[0009] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is realized through the following technical solutions:
[0010] A method for split-beam installation of high-position and long-distance horizontal cables suitable for arch rib lifting, comprising the following steps:
[0011] Step 1: Weld the construction platform to the main body of the bridge in cooperation with the position of the arch rib;
[0012] Step 2: There are two sets of construction platforms, which are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the main bridge body. A vertical traction winch is installed on the left construction platform. Set the total number of horizontal cable steel strands to be installed. The vertical traction winch pulls one end of a single horizontal cable steel strand to the left construction platform;
[0013] Step 3: The construction platforms on the left and right sides are connected by a transmission cable device;
[0014] Step 4: The end of a single horizontal cable steel strand is connected to the transmission cable device through a U-shaped bayonet. The transmission cable device thus drives the horizontal cable steel strand to move, so that the horizontal cable steel strand is transmitted from the left side of the arch rib to the right side;
[0015] Step 5: Repeat the above Step 4 until all the horizontal cable steel strands are anchored on both sides of the arch rib.
[0016] 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. The I-beam is welded to the main bridge body.
[0017] Furthermore, the thickness of the steel plate is 5 mm.
[0018] Furthermore, the main bridge body includes a steel beam, lifting tower frames and brackets. The steel beam is an integral framework 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. The I-beam is welded to the lifting tower frame.
[0019] Furthermore, the welding method of the I-beam and the lifting tower frame adopts double-sided welding or single-sided welding.
[0020] 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 circles, and the traction rope is sleeved on the outer end of the fixed pulley.
[0021] Furthermore, N is 5.
[0022] 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.
[0023] The beneficial effects of the present invention compared with the prior art are as follows: 1. Improve construction efficiency: By reasonably building the construction platform and arranging the equipment, and adopting the mechanical traction and transmission method, the amount of manual operation is reduced, and the installation speed of the horizontal cable steel strands is increased. Compared with the traditional method, the construction efficiency is improved;
[0024] 2. Ensure installation accuracy: By using the fixed pulley and the precisely controlled winch rotation, the position accuracy of the steel strands during the transmission process can be effectively ensured, the installation error is reduced, and the installation accuracy of the horizontal cable steel strands meets higher engineering requirements;
[0025] 3. Reduce safety risks: Most of the operations are carried out on the built construction platform, reducing the direct operation time and intensity of workers at high altitudes, reducing the safety risks brought by high-altitude operations, and effectively protecting the lives of construction workers.
