Intelligent Active Correction Technology and Application of Tower Displacement in Arch Bridge Cable Lifting Construction

In order to control the tower deviation in the cable hoisting process of long-span concrete-filled steel tubular arch bridge during construction monitoring, a practical method of tower deviation correction was studied and established. In the paper, based on the studies about the deviation error formation mechanism of tower in the process of cable lifting, the relevant formulas of the arch rib elevation changes caused by the change of tower state were deduced. The traditional control methods including increase of tower stiffness and strength of the anchor cable, are not effective, costly, and require a longer construction period. To overcome these defects, in virtue of the Beidou GNSS measurement system and hydraulic jack active control system, the active control technology of the CFST (Concrete Filled Steel Tube) arch bridge tower deviation was thoroughly studied. Besides, a perfect active control theory was established. Finally, the author puts forward the idea of reverse pulling tower deviation. The field measurement and comparative study show that after the optimization of this method, the tower deviation is within 2 cm, and the error meets the specification requirements. The proposed method can accurately control the tower deviation in the process of arch bridge cable hoisting, and establish a set of perfect active control related systems and theories, which is especially suitable for the construction monitoring and adjustment in the construction stage of arch bridge, and can provide reference for the construction control of tower deviation of the same type of bridge.
