Abstract:Research and application of monitoring and control theory and technology in bridge construction process is the basic guarantee of bridge engineering quality, it has become an important content in the field of bridge engineering. Based on the published literature in recent two years, combined with the research and engineering practice carried out by the team, this paper briefly reviews the development of this field. Review and comment on the overall progress are carried out from the development process of control theory of long-span bridge (including cable-stayed bridge and suspension bridge) and special control technology of special structure, that including the construction process control of large bridge structure turning, the longitudinal synchronous jacking control of large beam section, and the control of special mechanical problems in the process of reinforcement of existing structures. Further research hotspots in this field are prospected.
