Abstract:In order to explore the influence mechanism and control strategy of deflection and internal force of long-span continuous rigid-frame bridge, the causes of main beam deflection are briefly analyzed at first, and combined with the analysis results, the calculation conditions and the finite element model for the subsequent calculation and analysis are given. Secondly, the influence mechanism of main influencing factors on the deflection and internal force of continuous rigid frame bridge is explored. Finally, based on the analysis results of the influence mechanism, the control strategy to reduce the deflection and internal force of the main beam is proposed. The research shows that the main factors affecting the vertical deflection of the main beam and the structural force of the long-span prestressed concrete continuous rigid-frame bridge are the relative humidity, loading age and prestressing loss, in which the order of the degree of influence from large to small is the prestressing loss, relative humidity and loading age. When the prestressing loss changes from 5% to 25%, the vertical deflection of the main beam increases by 18.86% in maximum, and the bending moment of the main beam is about 2 times of the original, which can be seen that the prestressing loss will significantly increase the bending moment and vertical deflection of the main beam. In order to prevent the large-span prestressed continuous rigid-frame bridge from the lower deflection and internal force problems during the operation, it is necessary to control the prestressing loss in the design stage, construction stage and operation stage.
