Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bridge engineering, in particular to an assembled concrete rigid frame bridge. Background Art
[0002] A rigid frame bridge is a bridge whose main load-bearing structure is a rigid frame, that is, the beam and legs or piers form a rigid connection. The main load-bearing structure of a rigid frame bridge is a rigid frame structure in which the beam and piers are consolidated. Due to the consolidation of the piers and beams, the beams and piers are subjected to force as a whole. The piers not only bear the vertical pressure caused by the load on the beams, but also the bending moment and horizontal thrust. Under the action of vertical loads, the bending moment of the beams of a rigid frame bridge is usually smaller than that of a continuous beam or simply supported beam of the same span, and its spanning capacity is greater than that of a beam bridge. The consolidation of piers and beams eliminates large supports, and the structure has strong integrity and good seismic performance. Therefore, prestressed concrete rigid frame bridges are currently the main type of long-span bridges.
[0003] Existing rigid frame bridges are constructed by casting the piers, then building a steel beam structure on top, which is then connected together by casting. The steel beams are connected by bolts or welding. The overall construction progress is slow and time-consuming. In addition, the stress between the steel beams and the piers is completely concentrated on the contact surface. The steel beams and piers need to be of sufficient size and rigidity to meet the bearing capacity requirements. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides an assembled concrete rigid frame bridge, which solves the deficiencies of the existing rigid frame bridges.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions: an assembled concrete rigid frame bridge, comprising reinforced concrete piers and steel beams, wherein the ends of the steel beams are connected to the tops of the reinforced concrete piers, and a composite slab bridge deck is laid on the tops of the steel beams, and the ends of the steel beams are fixed or hinged to the tops of the reinforced concrete piers;
[0006] The end of the steel beam is fixed to the top of the reinforced concrete pier by pouring concrete, and the part of the steel beam poured on the top of the reinforced concrete pier is provided with a force distribution structure, which is used to disperse part of the pressure of the steel beam to the surrounding reinforced concrete piers.
[0007] Preferably, the cross-section of the steel beam is an I-shaped structure, and the force distribution structure includes end pressure-bearing plates fixedly connected to both sides of the end of the steel beam, the side surfaces of the end pressure-bearing plates are provided with vertical pressure distribution structures, and an inclined force distribution structure is provided between the bottom of the end pressure-bearing plates and the bottom of the steel beam.
[0008] Preferably, the facade pressure-dividing structure is a horizontal plate fixedly connected between the side surface of the middle vertical plate of the steel beam and the end pressure-bearing plate, and the horizontal plate is provided with at least two layers.
[0009] Preferably, the inclined force distribution structure is a triangular support plate fixedly connected to the side of the end pressure plate and the bottom of the steel beam end, and multiple triangular support plates are arranged in parallel, and the inclined surfaces of the multiple triangular support plates are connected as a whole through the inclined plate, thereby connecting the bottom of the end pressure plates on both sides into one.
[0010] Preferably, the inner surface of the end of the steel beam is evenly provided with anchor nails for integrally pouring into the concrete.
[0011] Preferably, the reinforced concrete bridge pier includes a cap beam, a bridge pier and a pedestal from top to bottom, and the steel beam includes a plurality of steel main beams arranged in parallel along the width direction, and a plurality of steel secondary beams are equidistantly connected between two adjacent steel main beams, and both ends of the steel main beam are installed on the top of the cap beam.
[0012] Preferably, when the steel beam is fixedly installed on the top of the reinforced concrete pier, the cap beam and the pier are arranged in two sections to connect two steel beams respectively.
[0013] Preferably, when the steel beam is hinged to the top of the reinforced concrete pier, a hinge seat is provided on the top of the cap beam to connect the steel beam.
[0014] The utility model provides a prefabricated concrete rigid frame bridge. Compared with the existing technology, it has the following advantages:
[0015] Beneficial effects:
[0016] (1) The rigid frame bridge type is adopted, and the beam and pier are rigidly connected, with high overall rigidity and good structural continuity, which can effectively disperse and transmit loads; the bridge body as a whole is an over-static structure, which can resist the horizontal and vertical loads input by earthquake action and has excellent seismic performance; there are no supports at the piers, which reduces the possible wear and corrosion during the operation of the bridge and reduces the maintenance cost;
[0017] (2) The cap beam and the embedded steel main beam sections are prefabricated in the factory, which reduces the amount of wet work on site and speeds up construction. The cap beam concrete and the embedded I-beam work together to form a steel-concrete composite, which strengthens the stiffness and integrity of the joints and meets the design requirements of "strong joints and weak components." The concrete wraps around the embedded steel main beams, reducing the corrosion rate of the steel when exposed to the atmospheric environment and extending the service life of the bridge.
[0018] (3) The steel main beam adopts I-beam main beam, which is easy to construct; the cross-section material utilization rate is high, which reduces the amount of steel used in the bridge and is suitable for small and medium span bridges; the beam cross-section is open, which is convenient for daily maintenance and inspection;
[0019] (4) The bridge deck is constructed in the form of a composite slab, which enables formwork-free construction. The prefabricated slabs are laid quickly and conveniently, shortening the construction period to the greatest extent and avoiding the impact of construction on traffic below.
[0020] (5) Setting up a force distribution structure at the connection section between the steel beam and the reinforced concrete pier can expand the range of the test force of the steel beam on the reinforced concrete pier. By dispersing the stress, the reinforced concrete pier can withstand greater pressure and the end of the steel beam is not easily deformed.
[0021] In summary, this structural form is particularly suitable for bridge structures with a span of 20-50m. It can maximize the advantages of the composite structure, shorten the construction period, reduce the subsequent maintenance cost, and have good seismic performance and structural stiffness.

[0042] The inclined force distribution structure is a triangular support plate 43 fixedly connected to the side of the end pressure plate 41 and the bottom of the end of the steel beam 2, and there are multiple triangular support plates 43 arranged in parallel. The inclined surfaces of the multiple triangular support plates 43 are connected as a whole through the inclined plate 44, thereby connecting the bottom of the end pressure plates 41 on both sides into one.
[0043] The inner surface of the end of the steel beam 2 is evenly provided with anchor nails 5 for integral casting into the concrete; in the positive bending moment area at the mid-span, ordinary bolt connectors are arranged on the upper edge of the steel main beam 21; in the negative bending moment area of the support, the upper edge of the cross section of the steel main beam 21 is arranged according to the force analysis results.
