[0002] With the continuous development of highway construction, prefabricated beams are widely used in the construction of bridge superstructures, and steel box beams are also widely used in interchange hub projects. Steel box beams are also called steel plate box beams. Steel box beams are a common structural form for large-span bridges. They are generally used on bridges with larger spans. Because they look like a box, they are called steel box beams. Steel box beams are generally connected by a full welding method, including top plate, bottom plate, web plate, diaphragm, longitudinal diaphragm and stiffening ribs. In bridge steel structures, due to the requirements of use function and bearing capacity, more and more steel box bridges are developing in the direction of large spans and large cross-sections. Considering the performance of hoisting equipment and construction cost, steel box bridges are generally divided into sections and manufactured in factories, and then transported to the construction site for assembly and welding. The welding of the bottom plate butt welds of steel box beams and the connection between the transverse stiffening ribs and the webs needs to be completed under the steel box beam. In the past, most of them were carried out by erecting brackets, special manned cranes or introducing bridge inspection machines, which had the limitations of high cost, high terrain conditions and poor flexibility.
