The mechanical performance of China Railway Track System type II (CRTS II) ballastless track suitable for High-Speed Railway (HSR) bridges is investigated in this project by testing a one-quarter-scaled three-span specimen under thermal loading. Stress analysis was performed both experimentally and numerically, via finite-element modeling in the latter case. The results showed that strains in the track slab, in the cement-emulsified asphalt (CA) mortar and in the track bed, increased nonlinearly with the temperature increase. In the longitudinal direction, the zero-displacement section between the track slab and the track bed was close to the 1/8L section of the beam, while the zero-displacement section between the track slab and the box girder bridge was close to the 3/8L section. The maximum values of the relative vertical displacement between the track bed and the bridge structure occurred in the section at three-quarters of the span. Numerical analysis showed that the lower the temperature, the larger the tensile stresses occurring in the different layers of the track structure, whereas the higher the temperature, the higher the relative displacement between the track system and the box girder bridge. Consequently, quantifying the stresses in the various components of the track structure resulting from sudden temperature drops and evaluating the relative displacements between the rails and the track bed resulting from high-temperature are helpful in the design of ballastless track structures for high-speed railway lines.

<p>At present, Chinese high-speed railway operating mileage has exceeded 20 thousand km, and the proportion of the bridge is nearly 50%. Moreover, high-speed railway design speed is constantly improving. Therefore, controlling the deformation of the bridge structure strictly is particularly important to train speed-up as well as to ensure the smoothness of the line. This paper, based on the field test, shows the vertical and transverse absolute displacements of bridge structure by field collection. What’s more, resonance speed and dynamic coefficient of bridge were studied. The results show that: the horizontal and vertical stiffness of the bridge can meet the requirements of <b>Chinese “high-speed railway design specification” (HRDS)</b>, and the structure design can be optimized. However, the dynamic coefficient may be greater than the specification suggested value. And the simply supported beam with CRTSII ballastless track has second-order vertical resonance velocity 306km/h and third-order transverse resonance velocity 312km/h by test results, which are all coincide with the theoretical resonance velocity.</p>

Based on properties of high-speed railway bridge and rail system restraints, the rail-bridge model is established by considering CRTS II unballasted track and bridge structure. The results show that the effect of CRTS II system restraints on seismic response for multi-span simply supported girder bridge is greater so the rail-bridge model should be adopted in earthquake response analysis. Due to the effect of longitudinal stiffness of the railway and bridge transitional section such as terminal spine, the more significant is unloading for seismic response of the side piers if the fewer is the number for the rear-structure spans.

In the process of steam curing to high-speed railway’s simply-supported box girder, there are some problems must be faced such as the difficulty to determine steam curing system and to achieve automatic temperature control. With the construction site conditions of simple-supported box girder in Longwang beam field which is located on Shijiazhuang-Wuhan (Shi-Wu) section of Beijing-Guangzhou high-speed railway, the paper proposes the appropriate steam system for simply-supported box girders, determines the appropriate equipments, explores the temperature control system in the process of steam curing to the simply-supported box girder's concrete, and takes the temperature test of steam curing in the field. Results show that, the steam curing technology in this paper can increase the production efficiency of beam in production site, and effectively guarantee the prefabricated quality of simply-supported box girder.
