Abstract
The steel tube arch rib in a large-span concrete-filled steel tube arch bridge has a large span and diameter, which also leads to a larger weld seam scale. Large-scale welding seams will inevitably cause more obvious welding residual stress (WRS). For the purpose of studying the influence of WRS from large-scale welding seam on the mechanical properties of steel tube arch rib during arch rib splicing, test research and numerical simulation analysis on the WRS in arch rib splicing based on the Guangxi Pingnan Third Bridge, which is the world’s largest span concrete-filled steel… More >
