Abstract:
Taking composite girders with corrugated steel webs and concrete-filled steel tubular (CSW-CFST) truss chords as the research object, the torsional behavior tests and theoretical analysis on the composite girders were conducted, in comparison with those of composite girders with corrugated steel webs and circular hollow section (CSW-CHS) truss chords and composite box girders with CSW-CFST chords. The twist failure mode, the sectional form, and the influence of the concrete in chord on the torsional behavior of composite girders above were studied. Furthermore, the calculation method for the torsional bearing capacity of composite girders was discussed. Results show that the cross section of composite girders with CSW-CFST truss chords can be equivalent to the closed box cross section. The twist failure mode is that the concrete bridge deck slab cracks obliquely along the direction of 45◦ with respect to the axis of composite girders, accompanied with the yielding longitudinal rebar. The concrete in chord contributes to the torsional stiffness and bearing capacity of composite girders to some extent. Based on the linear superposition method of the stiffness, the calculation method for the composite torsional stiffness of CFST specimen is established. For the four twist failure modes possibly occurring in composite girders with CSW-CFST truss chords, the calculation method for the torsional bearing capacity was put forward. Moreover, the deviation between the results from the calculation method for the torsional bearing capacity put forward in the present study and those from the tests and finite element analysis is not more than 8. 5%. © 2023 Editorial Office of China Civil Engineering Journal.
