The invention discloses a beam body
bearing capacity assessment method based on rigidity distribution identification, and relates to the technical field of civil or bridge
structure health monitoring. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, carrying out geometric segmentation on a to-be-evaluated beam body, applying a static load, measuring node deflection and selectively measuring a rotation angle; and constructing a total
stiffness matrix by taking the flexural stiffness of each section as an unknown number, constructing an equilibrium equation in combination with boundary conditions and loads, and solving to obtain the distribution condition of the flexural stiffness along the
beam length and the flexural stiffness of the minimum beam section. Secondly, by analyzing the consistency of rigidity distribution under different loading grades and comparing with historical data, the
linear elasticity condition and damage development of the beam body are judged. And finally, establishing a rigidity and
bearing capacity parameter relationship based on the material and section data, and reversely deducing the weakest section
bearing capacity and the maximum bearing capacity of the beam body by utilizing the minimum rigidity. The method can accurately position the rigidity weakening area and quantitatively reflect the damage, the identification result is accurate, the operation is simple and convenient, and the cost is low.
