Abstract:According to the relevant regulations of Technical Regulations for Aluminum alloy Footbridge (T/CECS471-2017), the control factors in the design of aluminum alloy footbridge are analyzed. The results show that the key to control the structural design of the truss aluminum alloy footbridge is the structural fundamental frequency rather than the deflection. If the structure is mainly a flexural member, the primary control factor in the design of aluminum alloy footbridge is the deformation. The rise span ratio of aluminum alloy truss footbridge is about 1:10. The characteristics of aluminum alloy materials and the control of key factors in bridge design will improve the use efficiency of aluminum alloy materials and reduce the construction costs. The aluminum alloy footbridge has the good spanning capability and can adapt to the functional demands of spanning the wider roads.
