Structural Type Selection for Long-Span Bridges in Mountain Area

Abstract:

As the western region is a mountainous area with geology complicated geological conditions, the proportion of bridges and tunnels is bigger. Based on the characteristic of mountainous route and long-span bridges, this paper discussed the conceptual design of mountainous bridges. Firstly, this paper analyzes the characteristic of mountainous long-span bridges and proposed some fundamental principles to design long-span bridges. After the comparison of the main bridge structures, the paper points out that the designer should select the best programs considering hydrological, geological, geomorphology, construction technology, transportation , geographical environment and social environment. The purpose of this paper is to give reference for the conceptual design of mountainous long-span bridges.
