Abstract:In order to study the mechanical characteristics of super large cantilever double-column prestressed reinforced concrete cover beam, establishing beam element model by DoctorBridge V4 and solid model by FEA NX respectively for calculation and analysis. Compared with the solid model, the calculation results of the beam element model are more conservative. The transverse width of pier affects the internal force distribution of cover beam, the bending moment reduction of cover beam can be considered at the top of column to optimize structural design and save engineering cost. A pair of uniform and concentrated forces are applied to the beam element model for simplified calculation.
