Abstract:

In order to eliminate the influence of temperature variation on crack width of continuous rigid frame bridges and improve the efficiency and accuracy of evaluating bridge safety through crack width variation, a rigid frame bridge in Guangxi Province was taken as the research object. The whole bridge model and the refined model of beam segment with cracks were established respectively. The relationship between temperature and crack width variation was studied according to the calculation results of cross-level model. The results show that both the uniform temperature and the gradient temperature action have an effect on the crack width variation. The modified formula considering the change of concrete material characteristics can be used to quickly determine the crack width variation caused by temperature change, which can provide an important basis for bridge safety early warning. Finally, the proposed method is applied to Luotianle Bridge project, and the accuracy of this method is verified by measured data.

Key words: bridge engineering, rigid frame bridge, crack width, temperature variation
