[0044] The steering device 120 can be configured as one or two components. When there is one steering device 120, it can be arranged at the mid-span. When there are two steering devices 120, they can be arranged near the mid-span of 1 / 4 and 3 / 4 of the span.

[0046] The tie rod assembly 150 connects the adjacent steering devices 120 into one unit, which improves the stability of the entire railway simply supported beam 160, enabling the railway simply supported beam 160 to withstand greater loads and have higher stability.

[0047] The two steering units 120 can be connected as a whole by steel tie rods or carbon fiber tie rods, thereby eliminating the longitudinal unbalanced force on the individual tie rods.

[0048] In one embodiment of the present invention, the anchoring device 110 is fixedly connected to both ends of the railway simply supported beam 160 by anchor bolts that penetrate the web.

[0049] The anchoring device 110 is fixed to the beam end by anchor bolts that penetrate the web. The structural stress is clear during the design calculation, and there is no need to consider the anchoring bearing capacity of the old beam concrete.

[0050] By fixing the prestressed tendons 130 to both ends of the railway simply supported beam 160 through the anchoring device 110, the railway simply supported beam 160 can have higher stability, and the prestress applied to the railway simply supported beam 160 can be more stable and effective.

[0051] In one embodiment of this utility model, the bending angle of the prestressed tendon 130 is 2°~30°.

[0052] The bending angle of the prestressed tendon 130 is 2°~30°, which improves the shear bearing capacity of the web.

[0053] In one embodiment of this utility model, the friction surface between the steering device 120 and the prestressed tendon 130 is a fluoropolymer coated sliding plate, a polytetrafluoroethylene sliding plate, or a stainless steel sliding plate.

[0054] In one embodiment of the present invention, the anchoring device 110 is a steel structure, and the surface of the anchoring device 110 is provided with a multi-element powder co-diffusion layer, a passivation layer and a sealing layer.

[0055] In one embodiment of this utility model, the tensile strength of the prestressed tendon 130 is 1860MPa to 2400MPa.

[0056] The prestressed strands can be made of steel strands or carbon fiber cables of 1860MPa, 2000MPa, 2100MPa, 2200MPa, 2300MPa, or 2400MPa grades. The steel strands are protected against corrosion by galvanizing, galvanized aluminum alloy, monofilament epoxy, or steel strands with PE sheaths.

[0057] In one embodiment of this utility model, the prestressed strand 130 is made of steel strand, and the surface of the steel strand is galvanized, galvanized aluminum alloy, monofilament epoxy, or covered with a PE sheath.

[0058] The external prestressed tendons 130 provided by this utility model are used to reinforce a simply supported railway beam 160. By bending the prestressed steel tendons at the quarter mark, the crack resistance safety factor and shear bearing capacity are improved. The reinforcement device can be composed of pre-cast prestressed tendons 130 and steel components. Compared with traditional reinforcement devices, the external prestressed reinforcement device 100 for simply supported railway beams of this utility model has a clear overall structural stress distribution, requires less on-site construction work, and causes less damage to the existing beam concrete.

[0059] It should be further explained that prestressed simply supported beams are constructed by pre-stressing the beam structure, thereby enabling them to better resist external loads during service. The design principle of prestressed concrete simply supported beams is based on prestressing technology, which involves applying pressure to the concrete structure before it bears a load, giving the concrete better compressive and crack resistance when subjected to external loads. This technology can significantly improve the load-bearing capacity of beams, meeting the load requirements of railway transportation.

[0060] This pre-applied stress alters the internal stress state of the beam, thus affecting the mechanical properties of the simply supported railway beam, including its vibration frequency. The geometry of the simply supported railway beam also influences the vibration frequency under prestress. Longer, wider, or thicker beams may exhibit different vibration frequency variations under prestress compared to smaller beams. Generally, for larger beams, the increase in vibration frequency with increasing prestress may be relatively smaller.

[0061] The railway bridge uses prestressed concrete simply supported beams as the main span structure. The design must consider factors such as load, span, and material properties. Specific key points include selecting appropriate prestressed steel bars and concrete strength grades, determining the span and cross-sectional dimensions of the simply supported beams, and optimizing beam segment splicing and hoisting schemes.

[0062] The external prestressed reinforcement device 100 for railway simply supported beams provided by this utility model can enable railway simply supported beams 160 to have high load-bearing capacity, good crack resistance, strong durability and convenient construction; the prestress significantly improves bending and shear resistance, and is suitable for long-span (≥32m) bridges; crack control extends service life, with a design life of ≥100 years; it also has good economic benefits, saving 30-40% of steel and reducing later maintenance costs.

[0063] In this utility model, terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "back", "vertical", "horizontal", "side", and "bottom" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only used to facilitate the description of the structural relationship between the various components or elements of this utility model and do not specifically refer to any component or element in this utility model. They should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
