Abstract:The bridge overpassing railway in Wuhan Rail Transit Line 7 North Extension Project needs to span the multiple railways. Affected by the high limitation of Tianhe Airport, the main bridge is designed as a (86 + 2 × 156 + 86)-m prestressed continuous beam bridge. In the design, the residual creep deformation of the beam is reduced by increasing the beam height and adjusting the arrangement of prestressed steel strands. The crack resistance of the main beam web is improved by using the twice-tensioning vertical steel strand prestress system. In order to reduce the interference of construction on the existing railways, the rotation construction scheme is adopted, and the rotation tonnage is up to 15 000 t. The foundation pit of adjacent railway is supported by isolation piles, and the additional settlement of the existing railway subgrade at all stages of foundation pit excavation and bridge construction meets the specification requirements.
