Performances of super-long span prestressed cable-stayed bridge with CFRP cables and RPC girder

摘要

To discuss the applicability of advanced composite carbon fiber reinforced polymer（CFRP） and ultrahigh performance concrete reactive powder concrete（RPC） in super-long span cable-stayed bridges, taking a 1 008 m cable-stayed bridge with steel girders and steel cables as an example,a new cable-stayed bridge in the same span with RPC girders and CFRP cables was designed,in which the cable’s cross section was determined by the principle of equivalent cable capacity and the girder’s cross section was determined in virtual of its stiffness, shear capacity and local stability. Based on the methods of finite element analysis,the comparative analysis of these two cable-stayed bridge schemes about static performances,dynamic performances,stability and wind resistance behavior were carried out. The results showed that it was feasible to form a highly efficient,durable concrete cable-stayed bridge with RPC girders and CFRP cables and made its applicable span range expand to 1 000 m long around.
