Discussion On Formula Of Off‐Load Increase Coefficient Of Single‐Box Multi‐Cell Wide Girder, Gao Qingfei, Wang Renzhi, Li Jun, Guo Binqiang, Qin Weijun
Journal of China & Foreign Highway
Single-box multi-cell wide girders are widely applied in highway and urban bridges due to their excellent integrity and large width, especially with increasing traffic volumes. However, existing methods for calculating the off-load increase coefficient of single-box multi-cell wide girders are either too complex or fail to meet engineering needs, limiting their applicability in preliminary design. This paper explores eight influencing factors of the off-load increase coefficient, calculates the coefficients using the transverse frame method, and proposes an empirical formula for the off-load increase coefficient. The proposed formula is validated using the Xiushui Street Wide Girder Bridge in Jilin City.

Selection And Design Of Anchorage For Suspension Bridge In Downhill Area Under Complex Geological Conditions, Chen Yongliang, He Shiyong, Xia Zhixian, Wu Wenxiang
Journal of China & Foreign Highway
Due to the complexities of design and construction, long-span single-tower suspension bridges are rarely applied in practice. The main bridge of the Jinsha River Bridge at Tiger Leaping Gorge adopts a 766 m single-span single-tower steel truss suspension bridge. On the Lijiang anchorage side, complex geological conditions posed significant challenges due to geological structures, while the reservoir level of the planned hydropower station created adverse hydrological conditions for waterproofing and durability of the anchorage system. The selection of an appropriate anchorage type was therefore particularly challenging. This paper first details the selection process for anchorage under complex geological conditions. It …

Analysis And Reinforcement Measures For Unconventional Cracks In Gravity U‐Type Abutment, Cheng Kun, Du Yinguang, Liu Zhang
Journal of China & Foreign Highway
Horizontal cracking at the foundation level is uncommon in gravity U-type abutments. This paper investigates the causes and reinforcement measures for unconventional horizontal cracks in the foundation and vertical cracks in the abutment wall of a gravity U-type abutment on a highway bridge. Survey and analysis results show that the vertical cracks in the abutment wall are structural cracks caused by excessive reaction forces from permanent loads combined with the impact loads from vehicles at expansion joints. The horizontal foundation cracks result from the presence of filler interlayers at the foundation, which softened over time due to water exposure, leading …
