Research on the Key Technology in Steam Curing for 32m Simple-Supported Box Girder of High-Speed Railway

Abstract:

In the process of steam curing to high-speed railway’s simply-supported box girder, there are some problems must be faced such as the difficulty to determine steam curing system and to achieve automatic temperature control. With the construction site conditions of simple-supported box girder in Longwang beam field which is located on Shijiazhuang-Wuhan (Shi-Wu) section of Beijing-Guangzhou high-speed railway, the paper proposes the appropriate steam system for simply-supported box girders, determines the appropriate equipments, explores the temperature control system in the process of steam curing to the simply-supported box girder's concrete, and takes the temperature test of steam curing in the field. Results show that, the steam curing technology in this paper can increase the production efficiency of beam in production site, and effectively guarantee the prefabricated quality of simply-supported box girder.
