Abstract
A case study of a large span pre-stressed concrete continuous rigid frame bridge (Ba-Mao-Chong bridge) of GUI DU high speed railway. Finite element program Midas/Civil is used to simulate the construction process and operation phase, the influence of concrete overweight, pre-stressing loss, concrete shrinkage and creep, stiffness loss and other factors that related the long-term deflection of bridge are analyzed. The calculation results show that: (1) The overweight concrete and Bridge deck pavement construction error could cause the bridge long-term deflection increases. (2) The creep coefficient, environment humidity, and other factors on the bridge have significantly influence on long-term mid-span deflection, (3) The beam stiffness reduction could lead to the bridge long-term mid-span deflection increase.
