Durability of Deck Pavement of Ultra-Wide Double-Sided Steel Box Girder Self-Anchored Suspension Bridge under Biased Load

The ultra-wide double-sided steel box girder self-anchored suspension bridge can be better used in urban bridge construction due to its delicate linear shape and light structure, as well as not being restricted by geological conditions. This study focuses on the Yunlongwan Bridge in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, and the ultra-wide separated steel box girder. We used ANSYS finite element analysis software to establish the beam-shell element combination model to study the lateral deformation and stress at the mid-span target section under eccentric loads. The stress amplitude of the roof and its distribution and diffusion along the transverse direction under different stiffness of the bridge are analyzed. Finally, the influence of the tensile stress and stress amplitude of the bridge deck on the fatigue of the bridge structure and the durability of the bridge deck pavement is discussed.
