Resumen

To optimize the segment storage and hoisting plan of precast segmental composite box girders with corrugated steel web bridges, China?s first precast segmental composite girder bridge with corrugated steel webs is taken as the background. The difference between the precast segmental composite box girders with corrugated steel webs and the traditional concrete box girder is proven by numerical simulation. The stress and deformation characteristics of the segmental girder during storage and hoisting are analysed, and reasonable control measures are proposed. The data suggested that compared with ordinary concrete box girders, the smaller torsional stiffness and lateral stiffness of the precast segmental composite box girder with corrugated steel web segments lead to larger roof stress and deformation during the storage and hoisting periods. The number of storage layers of segmental girders should not exceed two, and the four hoisting point scheme should be adopted for hoisting. It is recommended to set one to two channel steel supports of no less than 20 grade steel between the top and bottom plates to avoid excessive deformation of the roof. With the increase in the segment length, the roof deformation and stress increased regardless of the storage period and the hoisting period. If the safety factor needs to be increased, when the segment length is short (1.6 m?3.2 m), increasing the support size is recommended. When the segment length is longer (4.0 m, 4.8 m), increasing the number of supports is recommended.
