A Method for Closing Deck of Cable-Stayed Bridges with a Single Erection Joint
Publication: Earth and Space 2021
ABSTRACT
This paper presents a new closure method for closing the deck in the middle span of a cable-stayed bridge. It discusses the mechanism of the single joint method and develops a regression approach for fabrication dimensions of closure segment incorporating with temperature correction based on the field measurement. Following this, the authors propose the key erection procedures and the pulling system based on the erection of Jingyue Bridge in China. The application in this completed bridge demonstrates the proposed method, simple in operation and high in accuracy.
