Steel Truss Bridge Description:
Introduction of the steel truss bridge:
The steel truss bridge is a structural system between beams and arches. It is a structure
in which a bent upper beam structure and a pressure-bearing lower
column are integrated together. Due to the rigid connection between
the beam and the column, the beam is unloaded due to the flexural
rigidity of the column. The entire system is a compression-bending
structure as well as a thrust structure.
The structure composition of rigid truss beam bridge: Main girder, Bracing, Bridge deck system, Bridge floor
According to the different position of the bridge floor, it is
divided into upper bearing steel truss bridge that the bridge floor is located
in the upper part of the main truss and lower bearing steel truss
bridge which the bridge floor is located in the lower part of the
main truss.
(1) Main girder
It is the main load-bearing structure and bears vertical loads.
The main truss is composed of upper chord, lower chord and belly rod. The belly bar is divided into diagonal bar and vertical bar.
Nodes are divided into large nodes and small nodes.
Pitch refers to the distance between nodes.
(2) Bracing
1. Classification: longitudinal connection and horizontal
connection.
2. Function: Connect the main truss, make the bridge span structure
become a stable space structure that can withstand a variety of
lateral loads.
3. The longitudinal connection system is divided into upper
horizontal longitudinal connection system and lower horizontal
longitudinal connection system. The main function is to withstand
the transverse horizontal load, transverse wind, lateral rocking
force and centrifugal force acting on the bridge span structure. In
addition, the transverse support chord, reducing its free length
outside the plane.
4. The transverse connection is divided into bridge frame and
crosslink. The main function is to increase the torsional stiffness
of steel girder. Properly adjust the uneven force of the two main
stringer or two longitudinal links.
(3) Bridge deck system
1. Composition: the longitudinal beam, beam and the connection
between the longitudinal beam.
2. Way of force transmission: the load first acts on the
longitudinal beam, and then from the longitudinal beam to the beam,
and then from the beam to the main truss.
(4) Bridge deck
The bridge deck is the part for vehicles and pedestrians to walk
on. The form of the deck is similar to that of steel beam Bridges
and combined beam bridges.
Geometric characteristics of the main truss:
Economy, simple structure, conducive to standardization and easy to
manufacture and install.
The main truss categories:
Triangular truss: Triangular truss structure is simple, the design is fixed, easy to
install and manufacture.
Diagonal bar truss:
Many bar specifications.
Many specifications and large internal force of the vertical rod.
All are large nodes.
The K-shaped truss:
The shear force of the same node is borne by two diagonal rods,
which are small and short in section.
The bar has many specifications, many nodes, short intersections,
and many crossbar beams and connections. For small and medium-sized
spans, the structure is complex.
For large spans, the rods are short, light and suitable for
mounting and dismounting Bridges.
Double-vented bar truss:
The same internode shear force is borne by two diagonal rods, which
are small and short in section.
It is used for large span, short compression inclined rod, which is
favorable for buckling stability.
The small section of the inclined rod makes the number of
connecting pins on the joint plate less, and it is easy to arrange
the joint.
Application of the steel truss bridge:
Emergency or Temporary Bridges: Steel truss bridges can be quickly
assembled and disassembled, making them suitable for emergency
situations or temporary crossings. They can be deployed to restore
transportation routes after natural disasters or during bridge
repairs and maintenance.
Advantages of the steel truss bridge:
Large span
Fast construction speed
Durability: Steel is highly resistant to environmental factors, such as corrosion and weathering, leading to long-term durability of steel truss bridges.
Versatility: Steel truss bridges can be designed in various
configurations to accommodate different span lengths, site
conditions, and architectural requirements.
