Abstract:With the rapid development of urban economy, the grade intersecting problem of pedestrian and vehicle traffic is increasingly conflicting. The construction of the pedestrian bridges has the good traffic and social benefits in terms of increasing the speed of vehicles, realizing the diversion of pedestrians and vehicles, and the improving the traffic congestion. Aiming at the design of pedestrian bridge, its analysis and summary are carried out from the design of overpass group, optimization design of land occupation, design of structure avoiding pipeline, economic indexes, humanized design and the other aspects. Some suggestions and schemes for the design concept of the urban pedestrian bridges are put forward, which hopes to provide more ideas and references for the design of pedestrian bridges in the future.
