Abstract
The WuSu Bridge of HeiXiaZi Island is a hybrid girder cable-stayed bridge with one pylons and single cable plane. Based on the similarity principle, a 1:3 reduced scale test model of steel-concrete joint section was designed to study the load transfer mechanism and verify the rationality. The test model was loaded according to the serviceability limit state, and the stress distribution of control sections and main members were obtained. The finite element analysis on the test model was carried out and the load transfer mechanism was studied by the way of combining the test results and the FEA results. As shown in the results, the load from steel is smoothly delivered to concrete through steel-concrete joint section, and the load distribution of the components of steel-concrete joint section is rational. It is proved that the steel-concrete composite joint section is reasonably designed.
