Abstract:
With the development of modern construction technique and the application of new material,arch bridges which progress towards small rigidity,long span and light weight,what's more is that long span bridge's rigidity under construction is much less than that in use stage.So it is very necessary to study the aerodynamic characteristics of long span bridge.The regularity of the three dimensional static component forces coefficient varying with attack angle and the girder's flutter properties of Caiyuanbai Bridge over Yangtse River are investigated with segmental molding's static wind-tunnel test and segmental molding's dynamic wind-tunnel test.Eight derivatives of the girder are also identified from the segmental molding's dynamic wind-tunnel test.Finally the assessment to wind resistant properties of the bridge is given based on detailed analysis of the test results.The conclusion which gets from analysis can provide an suggestion to design and construction this kind bridge.
