The box section which can meet the requirements of wider deck is widely used in the construction of continuous rigid frame bridge. However, the shearing force lag is very obvious, which causes the inhomogeneous distribution of stress in the cross section, and it may threaten the safety of the bridge structure when it is serious. Taking a continuous rigid frame bridge located in Yunnan, China as an example, this paper establishes the finite element calculation model of the bridge to analyze the stress inhomogeneity in the construction stage. The results show that the shear lag coefficient of the section is constantly changing during the dynamic process of construction, with the increase of the length of the cantilever, the shear lag coefficient gradually converges to 1; prestress is the most important factor that causes the lateral inhomogeneity of the positive stress.

Cracks on the Joint Part between Pier and Girder, namely Block NO.0 in the construction process, has become one of the major diseases of continuous rigid-frame bridges. Based on the real construction technology, process and environment of Yuquanxi Bridge, the uneven distribution of stress caused by various factors is precisely analyzed by ANSYS. The shrinkage difference of concrete, the excessive hydration heat, and the sunshine temperature difference is accurately simulated respectively. By comparing the numerical results with actual cracks condition, the results prove that the theoretical analyse is accord with the actual situation, and the real reason of cracks on Block No.0 of Yuquanxi Bridge is uncovered. This study is of great practical value in preventing cracks and improving bridge construction technology.

Abstract: In general, the material properties, loads, resistance of the prestressed concrete continuous rigid frame bridge in different construction stages are time-varying. So, it is essential to monitor the internal force state when the bridge is in construction. Among them, how to assess the safety is one of the challenges. As the continuous monitoring over a long-term period can increase the reliability of the assessment, so, based on a large number of monitored strain data collected from the structural health monitoring system (SHMS) during construction, a calculation method of the punctiform time-varying reliability is proposed in this paper to evaluate the stress state of this type bridge in cantilever construction stage by using the basic reliability theory. At the same time, the optimal stress distribution function in the bridge mid-span base plate is determined when the bridge is closed. This method can provide basis and direction for the internal force control of this type bridge in construction process. So, it can reduce the bridge safety and quality accidents in construction stages.

Cantilever construction has been commonly used in construction of continuous rigid frame bridge and construction control plays an important role in ensuring the line-type and the forced state. Because of long construction period, it tends to construct across the winter possibly. Considering that the impact of winter intermission on construction control of pre-camber is a problem which the constructors and control staff must pay attention to, this paper takes the impact of winter intermission on construction stage into consideration. The research has guiding significance for the construction of the similar bridge to a certain degree.

A structure model of three-span continuous rigid frame bridge was constructed based on the finite element method. Firstly, the static performances were obtained. Secondly, the modal analysis was performed to get the natural frequencies and periods. The dynamic characteristics of the bridge structure were summarized, and some improvement guidelines are suggested to overcome the shortcoming for the bridge structure. Then, seismic response analysis was carried out based on the EL-Centro wave. The input excitations adopted the combination of vertical wave plus longitudinal wave, or vertical wave plus lateral wave, or the combination of three directions. Based on the three excitation cases, some useful results were obtained, which include internal forces, displacements, accelerations time-history curves of the critical sections for the bridge structure. And some comments about the time-history curves are given. At last, some helpful conclusions are drawn based on the calculation and analysis above. The calculation methods and results in this paper can provide some referenced information for the engineering design.

Under the Large Tonnage Pre-Stress, the stress of concrete which is under the anchor plate is complicated. To ensure the safety of construction and structure, the condition of local stress of the bridge structure should be investigated. When the pre-stress steel of Segment 1# of Pier 1# of Hongwuwo Bridge is tensioned, the strain situation of concrete near the anchor plate of the box girder is measured. The measured value is compared with the analytical value which is obtained through space finite element method.

Bridge structure plays a very important role in human traffic. The evaluation of bridge structure after a certain period of operation has always been the focus of the bridge. Based on the data collected from the health inspection system of a continuous rigid frame bridge on a highway in Yunnan, China, it is found that there is a certain linear relationship between the deformation and stress of the bridge structure. In view of a specific section of the structure, the stress value of this section can be derived according to its deformation value. The coefficient K can be calculated by comparing the estimated value to the actual measured value. According to the range of the K value, the structural state of the bridge can be evaluated to a certain extent.
