Abstract

In order to investigate the aerodynamic interference effects between parallel bridges, the aerodynamic interference effects on aerostatic coefficients of double thin-walled hollow pier in the parallel continuous rigid frame bridges with high-pier and long-span were investigated in details by means of wind tunnel test. The tandem interval and side-by-side interval between the two piers and wind direction angles were changed during the wind tunnel test to study the effects on aerodynamic interferences of aerostatic coefficients of twin piers. The test got aerostatic coefficients of 10 conditions. The research results have shown that the aerodynamic interference effects on aerostatic coefficients of double thin-walled hollow pier in parallel bridges can not be ignored. The tandem interval and side-by-side interval between the two piers and wind direction angles are important factors affecting interference effects. The drag coefficient, lateral force coefficient and torque coefficient are affected by these factors.
