Beam Bridge

In the CFST arch bridge construction process, for the reasons of arch axis deviation as prefabricated or constructed, the bearing capacity of arch-rib decreased. This paper considers material and geometric non-linear double factors, calculates the arch-rib ultimate bearing capacity of a CFST arch/continuous beam bridge with defects of arch axis deviation and steel yield stress decrease because of heat treatment, obtain the influence of defects to arch bearing capacity.

Deflection Test

The ultimate bearing capacity test is carried on CFST arch bridge model with CFRP slings, and the deflection of tie-beams, CFST arch, crossbeams, decks is also tested. Studies have shown that before the sliping of 4# CFRP sling, the deflection growth of east and west tie-beam, east and west arch both has good symmetry. The deflection growth of crossbeams and decks also has good symmetry, but after the sliping of 4# CFRP sling(located at the middle of west tie-beam), the structural internal forces redistribution appeared. The deflection of west tie-beam increased suddenly, and the mid-span deflection of west tie-beam is larger than that of east tie-beam by 14.6%. The mid-span deflection of east arch is larger than that of west arch by 9.9%. The deflection of crossbeam at 3L/8 and L/4 sections are respectively larger than those of crossbeam at 5L/8 and 3L/4 sections by 13.8% and 5.3%, The deflection of 3#, 2# and 1# decks are respectively larger than those of 4#, 5# and 6# decks by 7.8%, 13.2% and 17.1%. After the snapping of 10# CFRP sling(located at 3L/8 section of east tie-beam), the structural internal forces would appear redistribution. The deflection of east tie-beam would increase suddenly. The mid-span deflection of east tie-beam is larger than that of west tie-beam by 31.7%, and the mid-span deflection of east arch is larger than that of west arch by 21.3%. The deflection of crossbeam at 3L/8 and L/4 sections are respectively larger than those of 5L/8 and 3L/4 sections by 24.7% and 22.5%. The deflection of 3#, 2# and 1# decks are respectively larger than those of 4#, 5# and 6# decks by 16.2%, 24.5% and 28.6%.
