Abstract:
To shorten the splicing time of extended long-connected bridges, splicing method of new and old bridges partially spliced in longitudinal direction was proposed, according to the characteristic transversal displacement of extended long-connected bridge which shows large at both ends and small at middle. The effects of splicing time and non-splicing length on transversal displacement were analyzed by finite element method. Checking calculation method for long-connected bridge adopting the proposed partial splicing method was discussed according to existing specifications. Full-scale experiment was conducted on steel plate splicing structure for non-splicing parts. The results show that transversal displacements of bearings in both new and old bridges can be obviously reduced, so as to shorten the splicing time when new and old girders were symmetrically spliced from mid-span to two ends by cast-in-place wet joint and splicing isn't carried out at both end parts. Taking standing time of new constructed girders into account, the length of non-splicing part at both ends can be obtained according to the principle that the displacement of bearings in the old bridge should be less than the allowable value under the effect of concrete shrinking and creep in ten years after extending. Not only bending and shearing bearing capacity but also torsion bearing capacity should be checked for new and old constructed girders. No crack and crush appear at the junction between steel plate and flange, deck pavement, and interface between deck pavement and flange when test load is gradually increased to the twice equivalent vehicular loads of highway-I, which verifies the method of setting splicing structure at equal interval along the longitudinal direction between the flanges of the non-splicing parts of new and old bridge can avoid the cracks appearing in deck pavement and collision occurring between new and old bridges. © 2016, Editorial Department of China Journal of Highway and Transport.
