Study on the Longitudinal Horizontal Stiffness Limited Value of 20m Simply Supported Beam Pier Top of Urban Rail Transit

Abstract:

Considering the common application of the 20m simply supported beam in modern urban rail transit, an integrative rail-bridge-pier finite element model is developed. The force imposed on the pier, abutment and rail are calculated in different conditions, including the bridge stretching, bending and braking. In addition, the displacement of pier top and the maximum rapid relative displacement between girder and track are also calculated. The results are shown as follows: in terms of multiple span simply supported beams, the most harmful bending mode is when the load distributes on two adjacent simply supported beams. According to the additional braking tension force, as well as the additional braking pressure and the rapid relative displacement between girder and track, the most harmful breaking mode can be confirmed respectively. In the paper, the minimum value of the longitudinal horizontal linear stiffness of 20m simply supported beam piers is 120 kN/cm (double-line).
