Summary of the Invention

[0003] The technical problem solved by the present invention is to provide a construction method for a high tower of a multi-curved arch cable-stayed bridge to solve the problems raised in the above background art.

[0004] The technical problem solved by the present invention is achieved by adopting the following technical solutions: A construction method for a high tower of a multi-curved arch cable-stayed bridge, comprising the following steps:

[0005] Step (1). Construction of the stiffening skeleton. The skeleton is the top priority for controlling the alignment of the arched high tower. All cable ducts and steel bars are positioned relying on the skeleton. Prefabrication is carried out at the backfield and installation is carried out on-site. Based on the cross-section of the tower column, the outline of the skeleton is designed, the positioning of the steel bars is optimized, and the outline of the steel bars is made according to the outline of the skeleton to ensure the thickness of the steel bar protection layer.

[0006] Step (2). Steel bar construction. A small-diameter vibrating rod is used for vibration to ensure the quality of the main tower concrete pouring.

[0007] Step (3). Protection layer control. The positions of the steel bars are lofted at the middle and bottom of the main tower structure skeleton, stirrups are welded, and the positions of the steel bars are controlled in advance to ensure that the steel bar protection layers at the middle and top of the steel bars meet the specification requirements.

[0008] Step (4). Formwork construction. An adjustable construction platform is used for the outer construction platform, and laminated formwork is used for the inner formwork. The plane formwork is made into standard block formwork, and the external curve formwork is processed in sections.

[0009] Step (5). Support construction and prestress construction.

[0010] Step (6). During the construction of the cableway pipe, the skeleton construction positioning points are selected and remembered, and the relative position size is calculated according to the design data; the relative position of the cable pipe is laid out on the skeleton, and the rigid skeleton is marked; the cableway pipe is installed by a crane, and the surveying personnel use a steel tape measure and a distance meter to repeatedly check until the design position is met and then fix it with angle steel; the rigid skeleton cableway pipe is numbered and stacked in the middle span, side span and segment, and deformation of the rigid skeleton should be avoided during stacking;

[0011] Step (7). Arrangement of the main tower crane: two tower cranes are installed on the main tower, respectively on the upstream and downstream sides of the pedestal. The maximum lifting weight on the upstream side is 8t, and the boom length is 65m. The maximum lifting weight on the downstream side is 8t, and the boom length is 40m. The maximum lifting force at the boom end is 2.98t, and the maximum effective lifting height of the tower crane is 115m. The tower crane foundation is located outside the pedestal, and the tower body is attached to the side wall of the tower column.

[0012] Furthermore, in the step (3), a movable Ф8 steel mesh is arranged outside the main reinforcement and fixed to the main reinforcement with iron wire, and a C50 pad is tied to the mesh to ensure the thickness of the protective layer of the reinforcement.

[0013] Furthermore, in the construction of the support, four transverse supports are set up for the main tower, which are arranged at 42m, 59m, 74m and 87m from the bottom of the tower respectively. The transverse support is composed of 2 Ф820×10mm steel pipes, and the vertical support adopts Ф820×10mm steel pipe. A total of 6 vertical supports are set up, with a spacing of 4.5m in the transverse direction of the bridge and 5m in the longitudinal direction of the bridge. A Ⅰ36b I-beam combined base is set at the contact position between the vertical support and the steel box girder, and the base is welded to the steel box girder panel. The scissors support is made of [20 channel steel.

[0014] Furthermore, during the construction of the support, a 100×100×1.6cm steel plate is embedded inside the main tower at the cross brace position and welded to the cross brace steel pipe, and a reinforcing plate is welded between the steel pipe and the embedded plate; the cross brace is divided into sections at the vertical support position, and a reinforcing plate is set to connect the steel pipes.

[0015] Furthermore, the prestressed construction includes vertical prestressing, annular prestressing and beam prestressing. The vertical prestressing is constructed in sections and connected by connectors in the middle.

[0016] Furthermore, when sealing the anchor in the prestressed construction, a grouting joint pipe is first installed, and a layer of PVC pipe is placed on the outer sleeve of the grouting joint pipe to facilitate the disassembly of the grouting pipe. Then, concrete is directly used for anchor sealing in one step. After the grouting is completed, the joint pipe can be removed without the need for secondary anchor sealing.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The present invention adopts an adjustable construction platform to ensure the recyclability of the formwork and the platform; adopts the deep-buried anchor construction technology and combines it with an adjustable tensioning extension sleeve to assist in construction. The self-anchored tower crane foundation reduces the construction of the tower crane foundation in water and reduces construction risks; the balanced bracing technology ensures the safety of the tower column during construction and reduces the self-stress of the tower column; uses steel plates to replace the cut-off steel bars and reserves construction space, which not only does not affect the construction period but also ensures the project quality; constructs vertical prestress in segments to reduce the impact on concrete construction due to too long prestressed segments.
