The purpose of this paper is aimed at according to the "highway reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete bridge and culvert design specifications (JTG D62-2004) and (JTJ 023-85) design of jacking construction of continuous girder bridge for reliability analysis. By establishing a finite element model of construction stage and into a bridge stage respectively the reliability index of the typical cross section is analyzed. Aiming at construction stage, by choosing typical cross section of reliability analysis, draw a cross section of reliability index with the change of construction stage. Calculation results show that, according to JTG D62-2004 specification of reliability index calculation results than based on results of calculating the JTJ 023-85 specification. In this paper, the analysis results can provide reference for pushing the construction of the continuous girder bridge design.

This article simulates prestressed concrete continuous girder bridge reinforced many times and evaluates carrying capacity after reinforcement. Taking the FuFeng bridge for an example, we analyze the bridge’s stress state in using by Midas software, evaluate the concrete ability of crack resistance, check the reinforced concrete structure ultimate carrying capacity, the cracking resistance and the stiffness, assess reinforcement effect and verify the accuracy and reliability of the simulation results. The maximum main compressive stress, maximum compressive stress, maximal main tensile stress and maximum tension stress of mid-span cross-section of the bridge are 1.6Mpa, 1.6Mpa, 0.3~0.5Mpa, and -1.2Mpa respectively, the mid-span center cross-section of deflection is 2.89cm. Reinforcement suppresses the development and expansion of the crack; the mid-span deflection tends to stabilize; the ultimate bearing capacity meets the Standard requirement basically; the emergency capacity is not enough; and the car whose weight over 55 tons is prohibited from passing.

Taking a typical continuous girder bridge for example, the text builds spatial beam finite element model. By nonlinear time history analysis method, it analyzes bridge transverse pounding and the retainer strength in different strength levers earthquake. According to bridge pier failure and fragility theory and retainer section moment-curvature analysis, it puts forward retainer failure types in different strength levers earthquake. The calculation results show that it is irrational to design retainer section and reinforcement based on structure requirement. The structural retainer failure types have uncertainty without considering bridge seismic fortification goal. Though it appears on ductility failure, the damage state is very serious.

This paper focuses mainly on the case of a three-span prestressed concrete continuous girder bridge. A solid element model of the concrete upper rotation table and pier was established adopting the Midas/Civil Software, considering four unfavorable conditions including eccentric load effects. Then a strict inspection was given on the stresses and deformations of the model in each condition to check the safety of the structures during both processes of girder casting and bridge rotation. The results are positive and satisfactory.

As the object to a prestressed concrete continuous girder bridge, which is an actual bridge, finite element modes were established respectively for the same actual bridge in different construction methods. The calculation results were analyzed comparatively and then the difference of the design results between the two construction methods was discussed in the gravity of structures, combination for action effects and the reinforcement bars, in order to accumulate useful experience in designing bridges.

When the cantilever construction is adopted by the prestressed concrete continuous girder bridge, the order of two key procedures between removing temporary support and tensing remanent prestressed cable is used to be ignored. In order to study the influence of procedure inversion, the influences on bridge shape, stress distribution and prestressing loss were calculated for one common prestressed continuous concrete box girder bridge by MIDAS CIVIL 2006, respectively. The obtained result presents that: the influence on the bridge shape and the prestressing loss are not apparent, but the influence on the stress distribution is serious; the maximal compressive stress of procedure inversion is more 42.3% than common construction procedure only by tensing the remaining steel beams at box girder; especially, the combining area between the box girder and temporary support is easy to pull out. So, the procedure inversion construction method cant be accepted.

Time dependent variables such as temperature gradient, effective temperature, creep, and shrinkage lead to long term deflection in prestressed concrete girders. This in turn effects the serviceability and sustainability of the bridge in the long run. Therefore, research and analysis is of paramount importance before deciding the type of girder to be used. A parametric study was carried out in order to determine the most desirable and efficient type of box girder to be used for a prestressed concrete bridge having a continuous span. Three prestressed concrete box girder bridge models of single, multi-cell rectangular and multi-cell trapezoidal cross section, having similar span, width and depth were taken into consideration. The finite element models were analysed using MIDAS Civil. The behaviour of the box girder cell types under various time dependent properties such as temperature, creep and shrinkage are presented in this paper. The results show that the prestressed concrete box girder bridge of multi-cell rectangular cross section exhibits greater forces and moments due to time dependent variables in comparison to the other two box girder cell types.

A fibre-finite-element model of continuous prestressed concrete (PC) composite box girder with corrugated steel webs is established with force-based elements using OpenSees. After the model is validated with existing experimental data, the effects of reinforcement index in upper and lower flanges, effective prestress and concrete strength on the moment redistribution behaviour is analysed. It is shown that increasing the reinforcement index in lower flange or effective prestress can increase the amount of bending moment redistribution, whereas increasing the concrete strength or reinforcement index in upper flange can decrease the amount of bending moment redistribution. By inspecting the sensitivity of parameters, it is found that the reinforcement index in lower flange has the most significant influence on the moment redistribution, followed by the concrete strength and then by the effective prestress, while the reinforcement index in upper flange has only little impact on the moment redistribution. The calculation results are compared with the existing formulas. Finally, a moment redistribution formula is proposed for continuous PC box girder with corrugated steel webs.
