Reliability Assessment for the Balanced Cantilever Construction Phases of Super Long-Span Cable-Stayed Bridges with Steel Box Girder
Balanced cantilever construction phases are of great importance for the total life cycle processes of super long-span cable-stayed bridges. For assessment purpose, a systematic study on the reliability evaluation of these phases is carried out. Taking Sutong bridge as the sample structure studied, a series of load and resistance models are then established on the basis of field measurement. Using all these achievements, a typical phase of girder segment 6# lifting is chosen for reliability evaluation. Results of the analysis show that the established models are quite representative and reflect actual random nature perfectly. Furthermore, compared with pylon and stay cables the stiffening girder seems more likely to fail in accordance with reliability index. The major failure mode of it in terms of present analysis is the stability failure due to the action of bending and axial load. Nonetheless, the components on the whole are still in a high level of reliability, which can guarantee the proceeding of construction with efficiency.
