Resumen
In response to the lack of relevant research on the health monitoring system and assessment of the structural safety status of a cable-stayed bridge across the sea, the real-time monitoring data was determined by the health monitoring system installed on the bridge structure. Strain and displacement data for the bridge structure were analyzed and processed. Based on operational research principles, a safety condition assessment of the Channel 1 Bridge was conducted using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). First, the reserve strength method is applied to determine the weight proportion of monitoring indicators such as strain and displacement. Secondly, the weight proportion of each monitoring indicator at different cross-sectional positions is determined. Then, the hierarchical division of the cable-stayed bridge structure is performed from the lowest layer, and the rating level of the Channel 1 Bridge structure is obtained using the variable weight synthesis method. This provides a basis for management decisions in the bridge maintenance department and serves as an example for future safety assessments of medium-span cable-stayed bridges over the sea.
