Abstract:
Shitanxi Bridge is a concrete filled steel tubular (CFST) half-through arch bridge. The suspended longitudinal RC T-shaped floor beams in the through part of the bridge are supported on the PC cross beams which is suspended by high tensile steel cable hangers to the arch ribs. Such a deck system without a longitudinal stiffening girder will behave large deflection and vibration because of its bad integrity as well as vertical stiffness. Therefore in order to improve its service quality and risk resistance capacity, a strengthening project is proposed by setting longitudinal steel tubular trusses between the crossbeams. The static and dynamic behavior of this bridge before and after strengthening are analyzed and field tests both for static and dynamic behavior after strengthening were carried out. Analysis and test results show that the proposed project is effective on improving the dynamic performance and risk-resistance capacity. This strengthening method is not only economic and applicable, but also has little influence on traffic during construction.
