Abstract

Longitudinal assembled stiffness is the biggest problem for multi-pylon cable-stayed bridge. The longitudinal displacement and midspan deflection could be effectively controlled by setting horizontal cable at the top of pylon of multi-pylon cable-stayed bridge. This paper obtains the area and the cable force change formula of the horizontal cable through simplified model analysis of the mechanical behavior of setting horizontal cable at the top of pylon. The comparative analysis is performed by application of finie element model to discuss the effect of setting horizontal cable at the top of pylon of multi-pylon cable-stayed bridge.
