Description

[0002] With the development of society, the structure and shape of bridges are becoming more and more rich, and the steel pipe concrete arch bridge is widely used in modern bridge construction due to its unique structure, beautiful shape and strong bearing capacity. The main arch rib of the steel pipe concrete arch bridge adopts a steel pipe concrete structure, and the construction of the steel pipe concrete structure generally involves first building a steel pipe structure and then filling concrete in the steel pipe. The radial constraint of the steel pipe limits the expansion of the compressed concrete, so that the concrete is in a three-way compression state, thereby significantly improving the compressive strength of the concrete.

[0003] At present, the vertical swivel construction of the steel pipe arch bridge is mostly by lying assembly and vertical lifting. When assembling, a lying assembly support needs to be erected, such as the invention patent application CN 118375076A which discloses a construction method for arch rib vertical swivel by using rigid jacking.

[0058] Embodiment 2

[0059] At the moment when the arch rib vertical rotation and lowering release the temporary fixing structure and the connection support of the arch rib, a large instantaneous force will be generated, so that the lowering cable 1300 and the vertical rotation tower 203 are suddenly stressed, and then the cable force of the lowering system cannot be controlled, which may cause the phenomenon of instantaneous instability of the arch rib. In order to solve the above-mentioned possible problems, in combination with Figure 6, the present embodiment increases the force relieving device on the basis of Embodiment 1. Before the temporary fixing structure is removed, the force relieving device is installed below and on the side of the arch rib. Specifically:

[0060] The force relieving device comprises a counter-jacking mechanism 1700 and a jacking mechanism 1900. The counter-jacking mechanism 1700 comprises a rigid support structure, one end of which is adapted to match the outer side of the temporary anchoring position of the bottom of the arch rib upper chord 1600, and the other end is fixed on the arch seat. The counter-jacking mechanism 1700 forms a rigid support for the arch rib upper chord 1600 by means of the counter-force of the arch seat 3, thereby preventing the arch rib upper chord 1600 from tilting backward. The jacking mechanism 1900 comprises an upper sealing plate 1901, a lower sealing plate 1903 and a jacking jack group 1902. The upper sealing plate 1901 is used to match and fixedly connect with the bottom surface of the arch rib lower chord 1800, the lower sealing plate 1903 is used to match and fixedly connect with the top surface of the temporary fixing structure which is temporarily anchored under the arch rib lower chord 1800 and has been cut and separated, and the jacking jack group 1902 is fixed between the upper sealing plate 1901 and the lower sealing plate 1903. In addition, it should be noted that when the connection between the arch rib lower chord 1800 and the temporary fixing structure is released, the temporary fixing structure is generally cut to a certain length, so that the arch rib lower chord 1800 is kept a certain distance from the temporary fixing structure. When the connection between the first arch rib lower chord 1800 and the temporary fixing structure is released, the position of the arch rib is kept unchanged by the connection between the other arch rib lower chords 1800 and the temporary fixing structure, thereby ensuring the safety of the installation of the jacking mechanism 1900. When the connection between the last arch rib lower chord 1800 and the temporary fixing structure is released, the safety of the installation of the last jacking mechanism 1900 is ensured by the support of the temporary fixing structure and the jacking mechanism 1900 on the other arch rib lower chords 1800.

[0061] Before the temporary fixing structure is released, the rigid support structure is fixed on the outer side of the arch rib upper chord 1600, the top of which is closely attached to the outer side of the arch rib upper chord 1600, and then the rear-end temporary fixing structure 601 connected with the arch rib upper chord 1600 is released. In the next step, the connection between the arch rib lower chord 1800 and the front-end temporary fixing structure 602 is released. After the connection between each arch rib lower chord 1800 and the rear-end temporary fixing structure 601 is released, the upper sealing plate 1901 and the lower sealing plate 1903 are respectively welded to the bottom of the arch rib lower chord 1800 and the top surface of the temporary fixing structure which has been cut and separated, and the jacking jack group 1902 is jacked to the corresponding height. The arch rib lower chord 1800 is supported by the jacking jack group 1902. When the connection between all the arch rib lower chords 1800 and the front-end temporary fixing structure 602 is released and the jacking device is installed, the connection between the temporary fixing structure and the arch rib segment 700 is completely released. The jacking height of the jacking jack group 1902 is adjusted to coordinate with the lowering cable and the wind cable 1400 to control the slow lowering of the arch rib.

[0062] For the force relieving device, the embodiment further optimizes. The embodiment provides a specific structure of the rigid support structure, which includes a wedge-shaped pad shaped to better fit the arch seat 3 and the arch rib top chord 1600, and supports the arch rib top chord 1600; the wedge-shaped pad includes a plurality of spaced-apart rigid support plates 1702 arranged along the width direction of the arch rib to support the arch rib top chord 1600 with a certain width, one end of each rigid support plate 1702 is matched to support the outer side of the arch rib top chord 1600 at the temporary anchoring position at the bottom end, and the other end is fixed to the arch seat 3; the number of wedge-shaped pads is generally matched with the number of arch rib top chords 1600, that is, each arch rib top chord 1600 is matched with one wedge-shaped pad for support. More preferably, to ensure the support force of the arch rib top chord 1600, the rigid support plate 1702 is made of a steel plate with a thickness of not less than 20 mm.

[0063] For the installation of the rigid support plate 1702, a pre-embedded steel plate 1701 is preferably provided, which is pre-embedded in the arch seat 3 during pouring of the arch seat 3, and the other end of the rigid support plate 1702 is connected to the top of the arch seat 3. The connection is generally by welding, which is convenient and fast.

[0064] In addition, the counter-jacking mechanism can also include a backup steel plate 1703, which is fixed to the bottom surface of the arch rib top chord 1600 or the top surface of the corresponding temporary fixing structure after the arch rib top chord 1600 is disconnected from the temporary fixing structure. The temporary fixing structure here refers to the temporary fixing structure connected below the arch rib top chord 1600, and generally one arch rib top chord 1600 is provided with one backup steel plate 1703. The disconnection is generally by cutting, which leaves a certain space between the arch rib top chord 1600 and the temporary fixing structure after cutting, and the backup steel plate 1703 is welded to increase the contact area so that the temporary fixing structure still supports the arch rib top chord 1600. After the installation of other parts of the force relieving device is completed and before the arch rib is rotated, the backup steel plate 1703 is removed so that the arch rib top chord 1600 is not affected by the backup steel plate 1703 during rotation.

[0065] Preferably, the jacking mechanism 1900 is provided with at least two, which is matched with the number of arch rib bottom chords 1800, that is, each arch rib bottom chord 1800 is matched with one jacking mechanism 1900. If there are four arch rib bottom chords 1800, four jacking mechanisms 1900 are matched and installed.

[0066] Preferably, as shown in FIG. 2, in the jacking mechanism 1900, the jacking jack group 1902 includes at least two jacks arranged in the direction of the arch rib bottom chord 1800 after the temporary anchoring is released, so as to more balancedly support the arch rib bottom chord 1800 and achieve the purpose of slowly releasing the arch rib bottom chord 1800.

[0067] Preferably, the jacking mechanism 1900 further comprises a remote control system, which is electrically connected with the jacking jack group 1902, through which the jacking and lowering of the jacks can be conveniently controlled to ensure the safety of construction.

[0068] Preferably, since the jacking mechanism 1900 needs to bear a large load, the thickness of the upper sealing plate 1901 and the lower sealing plate 1903 is preferably not less than 25 mm, and in this embodiment, a steel plate with a thickness of 30 mm is selected.

[0069] For the above more preferred technical solution, this embodiment further provides a more specific operation method: the pre-embedded steel plate 1701 is installed in advance before pouring the abutment 3, and the rigid support structure is welded to the pre-embedded steel plate 1701 before the temporary fixing structure 600 is removed, so that the top thereof is tightly fitted with the outer side surface of the arch rib upper chord 1600. One counter-jacking mechanism 1700 is installed corresponding to each arch rib upper chord 1600 to provide a counterforce to the arch rib to prevent the arch rib from leaning backward at the moment when the temporary fixing structure is removed. In addition, after the connection between the rear-end temporary fixing structure 601 and the arch rib upper chord 1600 is removed, a piece of steel plate 1703 is welded to the bottom surface of the arch rib upper chord 1600 or the top surface of the corresponding rear-end temporary fixing structure 601. After the counter-jacking mechanism 1700 is installed, the jacking mechanism 1900 is installed. After the connection between each arch rib lower chord 1800 and the front-end temporary fixing structure 602 is removed, the upper sealing plate 1901 and the lower sealing plate 1903 are welded to the bottom of the arch rib lower chord 1800 and the top surface of the front-end temporary fixing structure 602 that has been cut and separated, respectively. The jacking jack group 1902 is jacked to the corresponding height, the arch rib lower chord 1800 is supported by the jacking jack group 1902, and after the connection between all the arch rib lower chords 1800 and the temporary fixing structure is removed and the jacking device is installed, the connection between the temporary fixing structure and the arch rib segment 700 is completely removed. The steel plate 1703 is removed, the jacking jack group 1902 of the four chords is synchronously unloaded by remote control, and the height is lowered in cooperation with the lowering cable 1300 and the cable wind cable 1400, thereby achieving the purpose of slowly releasing the arch rib.

[0070] The counter-jacking mechanism 1700 is used to prevent the arch rib from leaning backward, and the jacking mechanism 1900 is used to keep the arch rib balanced and coordinate the slow lowering of the arch rib, which can help reduce the probability of instantaneous instability of the arch rib when the connection and support between the temporary fixing structure and the arch rib are removed.
