Abstract:With the continuous development of mountain arch bridge construction scale, limited to site conditions and other factors, the application of asymmetric construction methods increases, and further research on asymmetric construction technology is needed. Through the establishment of MIDAS finite element model, combined with an actual reinforced concrete arch bridge project, a variety of T-beam erection schemes on the arch with different applied counterweights are proposed. The calculation results of different schemes are compared in terms of strength, stiffness and stability, and the optimal construction scheme is derived from the combination of construction efficiency. The results show that the counterweight layout of not less than 1 span can effectively reduce the risk of cracking of the arch ring in the asymmetric T-beam erection of reinforced concrete arch bridges. Based on the comprehensive construction efficiency and the stress results of the arch ring, with a two-span counterweight layout as the main approach, the stress can be reduced to approximately 1.4 MPa. The application of counterweight can effectively reduce the arch ring deformation under asymmetric construction.
