Abstract:As a high-class new bridge structural material, the aluminium alloy has the characteristics of light and high strength, each maintenance, low-carbon environmental protection, convenient and fast construction and high landscape performance. In recent years, the aluminium alloy structure has been more applied in the urban footbridges. But there is rare application case of long-span aluminium alloy footbridge. Taking Foshan Avenue Footbridge (intersection of Lanshi Road) in Chancheng District of Foshan as an example, the superstructure design of the long-span aluminium alloy footbridge is introduced in detail. The superstructure of the long-span aluminium alloy footbridge is selected and analyzed through MIDAS and 3D3S finite element models, which can be referred for the superstructure design of the long-span aluminium alloy footbridge.
