Abstract:The substructure of an urban viaduct is a double-pier connected segmental prefabricated bent cap. According to the characteristics of the project and its bent cap structure, through a reasonable overall planning, all double-column segmental bent caps can share a set of formwork, which can save total engineering cost. In the calculation process of segmental bent cap, the stress state and bearing capacity of joint position are mainly considered. In view of the problem of misconvergence in the checking calculation of shear bearing capacity of joint shear compression zone, the reason of misconvergence is analyzed, and a reasonable checking calculation idea is put forward. Aiming at the transverse assembly construction of segmental bent cap, two steel bent caps are designed as the temporary crossbeams in the construction process, which reduces the difficulty of transverse assembly construction and saves the construction cost of temporary measures.
