Abstract:Based on the lightweight requirements of prefabricated bent cap for urban viaducts, a structural form of segmented prestressed concrete bent cap based on four types of connection structures in two types of steel structure shear keys and post-cast concrete shear keys is proposed, and the technical advantages of the new segmented prefabricated bent cap are analyzed. The spatial finite element force analysis is mainly carried out on the segmented prefabricated bent cap of the embedded steel structure connection form using high-strength bolt connection key. Compared with the force transmission and deformation of the overall bent cap, the connection feasibility of this new segmented prefabricated bent cap form is verified. Under the premise of ensuring the integrity and durability of the bent cap, the new forward segmented prefabricated bent cap technology can greatly reduce the transportation and hoisting weight of the prefabricated bent cap. There is no need to set up another temporary support in the hoisting and erection processes, the construction is fast and convenient, and it has both stability and structural durability in the construction process, so it has a broad application prospect.
