Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of the construction of triple-span arch bridges, and particularly relates to a method for installing steel arch ribs of a triple-span wide-beam and narrow-arch through-arch bridge. Background Art

[0002] The main bridge of a certain bridge is designed as a triple-span basket-type through-arch bridge with a reticulated tied-arch system. Among them, the main span crosses a river, the width of the steel beam is 60.7m, the maximum width of the steel arch rib is 18.2m, the maximum rise of the side-span arch rib is 46.2m, the maximum rise of the main arch is 69.5m, and the height of the steel beam from the ground is 25m.

[0003] Based on the structural design characteristics of the project, the construction method of the upper structure is generally "synchronous jacking of beam and arch" or "beam first and then arch, arch erection on the beam". No matter which scheme is adopted for construction, for the erection construction of the steel arch rib on the ultra-wide steel box girder, generally, a hoisting device is arranged on the beam surface to erect the arch rib support and hoist the arch rib. The following disadvantages and limiting factors exist: 1. The load on the beam surface is large, and the force on the steel box girder may not meet the requirements. For the through-arch bridge system with a reticulated tied-arch structure, it is generally a "strong arch and weak beam" system. If a support is erected on the beam surface and a hoisting device is arranged on the beam surface, the force on the steel box girder structure does not meet the requirements in most cases, and the steel box girder needs to be strengthened, which will cause phenomena such as increased costs and delays in on-site construction.

[0004] 2. The working space on the beam surface of the open-web steel box girder is limited. The force of the open-web steel box girder is mainly transmitted through the vertical and horizontal diaphragms. When erecting a support on the beam surface, to ensure that the force on the steel beam meets the requirements, it is necessary to ensure that the support columns are located on the vertical and horizontal diaphragms or strengthen the steel box girder. At the same time, the hoisting setting and walking space are extremely limited, and the stacking on the beam surface is limited, making construction extremely inconvenient.

[0005] 3. The selection of hoisting equipment is limited, and the difficulty of equipment research and development is large. For the installation of the arch rib of the wide-beam and narrow-arch system, the hoisting equipment is generally arranged on the beam surface. For the hoisting of the 69.5m high-altitude steel arch rib segment, large truck cranes, gantry cranes and other equipment are required. Considering the force on the steel box girder structure, the optimal solution is to strengthen the position of the gantry crane track corresponding to the steel box girder when using a large gantry crane for hoisting. However, the installation of an ultra-high gantry crane on the beam surface and the operation risk and difficulty of the gantry crane are extremely high.

[0006] 4. Large investment in supports. If the "beam first and then arch, arch erected on the beam" plan is adopted, after the first continuous steel box girder is jacked into place, the arch rib support is erected on the beam surface, and the arch rib is erected before the support can be removed. The operation cycle from support erection to removal is relatively long. During this process, the second continuous steel box girder has been jacked into place, and an additional set of supports is required for the construction of the second continuous arch rib. If the beam-arch synchronous jacking construction is adopted, the overall jacking weight is large, and the investment in materials for temporary piers is extremely high. In addition, the arch rib support can only be removed after the first continuous integral jacking and beam dropping are completed. During this process, after the second continuous steel box girder is assembled, the arch rib support can be erected. At this time, the arch rib support cannot be recycled, and additional arch rib support materials need to be invested. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for installing steel arch ribs of a three-span wide-beam and narrow-arch through-arch bridge, so as to overcome the above technical problems existing in the prior art.

[0008] To this end, the technical solution provided by the present invention is as follows: A method for installing steel arch ribs of a three-span wide-beam and narrow-arch through-arch bridge. When assembling the steel box girder, the cantilever units are not installed temporarily within the range of the arch feet of the two-end steel arch ribs, and then the steel arch ribs are installed by using a cable crane. After the same continuous steel box girder and steel arch ribs are installed in sequence, they are integrally jacked, and after synchronous jacking and beam dropping, the construction of the next continuous steel box girder and steel arch ribs is carried out.

[0009] For the installation construction of large-span and ultra-high arch ribs, first assemble and jack the steel box girder, and then use a cable crane to hoist the steel arch ribs.

[0010] The specific process includes the following steps: Step 1) Erect the steel box girder assembly platform and the cable crane gantry respectively. Assemble the first continuous steel box girder on the steel box girder assembly platform, and use the cable crane to hoist the first continuous steel arch ribs. Step 2) Dismantle the cable crane system to a height lower than the bottom elevation of the steel box girder, and jack the first continuous integral into place and drop the beam. Step 3) Assemble the second continuous steel box girder, restore the cable crane system, and hoist the second continuous steel arch ribs. Step 4) Dismantle the cable crane system to a height lower than the bottom elevation of the steel box girder, and jack the second continuous integral into place and drop the beam. Step 3) Assemble the third continuous steel box girder, restore the cable crane system, and hoist the third continuous steel arch ribs.

[0011] The specific process includes the following steps: Step 1) Erect the steel box girder assembly platform, and erect the cable crane gantry at each continuous end to the height of the bottom of the steel box girder. Step 2) Assemble and jack the first continuous steel box girder, and then install the first continuous cable crane on the first continuous cable crane gantry. Step 3) Lift and install the first set of steel arch ribs, and jack and position the second set of steel box girders for assembly. Step 4) Dismantle the first set of cable cranes, and then install and construct the second set of cable cranes. Step 5) Lift and install the second set of steel arch ribs, and jack and position the third set of steel box girders for assembly. Step 6) Dismantle the second set of cable cranes, and then install and construct the third set of cable cranes. Step 7) Lift and install the third set of steel arch ribs.

[0012] There is one set of cable cranes.

[0013] The cable crane is for one span and is erected by multiple sets of tower frames.

[0014] The long span is 300m - 500m, and the super high arch rib is an arch rib of 50m - 100m.

[0015] The cable crane gantry is erected at both ends of the steel box girder assembly platform along the longitudinal bridge direction.

[0016] Between Step 1) and Step 2), it also includes installing the support rods and cantilever units between the beam and the arch.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: The method for installing steel arch ribs of a three-span wide-beam and narrow-arch through-arch bridge provided by the present invention, by installing the steel box girders outside the arch ribs at the arch foot position later, reduces the width of the steel box girders in the arch foot range during the construction stage of the arch ribs, thus making it possible to use cable cranes. By using cable cranes for lifting instead of the beam-supported scaffold method for construction, the investment in beam-supported scaffolds is reduced, and at the same time, the problem of the inability to arrange large lifting equipment on the beam surface of the open-web steel box girder is solved.

[0018] The present invention provides two steel arch rib installation schemes: synchronous jacking of the beam and the arch and separate construction of the beam and the arch. One set of cable crane systems is set up respectively for turnover use, or multiple sets of tower frames are invested at one time, and multiple-span cable cranes are used for lifting construction. The present invention has less material investment and simple construction technology, and at the same time solves the problems of limited working space on the beam surface of the open-web steel box girder and poor local mechanical properties of the steel box girder.
