Abstract

In order to improve the accuracy of cable tension test, the motionequation of the stay cable with the rubber damper was established bases on the principleof Hamilton. First, the correction method for the damping coefficient of rubberdamper and cable tension was proposed according to the higher modal frequencyand measured frequency of cables difference. Then, take the cable of DongtingLake Bridge as an example, the cable tension was calculated by the proposedmethod and compared with the results of measurement by frequency method.Results showed that the proposed method can improve the accuracy of cabletension test and can effectively evaluate the cable tension condition of thecable-stayed bridge.
