Abstract:Due to the bending-torsional coupling action of small radius curved bridge, the internal and external bearing forces of the bridge curve are not equal, and the bearing inside the arc can even have the negative reaction, which may cause the bridge to overturn. Therefore, the bridge designers must pay attention to the problem of improving the bearing stress of the structure and improving the anti-overturning ability of the bridge. Taking a curved slab bridge as an example, the weighting efficiency of each weighting method is analyzed, and then the optimal weighting method of trapezoidal weighting is deduced. The technology of this trapezoidal weighting is summarized, and has been used in specific engineering design. Its good effect is achieved. In the future, the technological innovation of trapezoidal weighting is worth popularizing.
