Pre-Cambering in Steel and Composite Bridge Structures

Abstract:

Steel beams are used in the construction of industrial, commercial buildings, bridges and other structures. Deflection in steel and composite beams describes the amount of deformation the beam will incur under the design loads. Pre-cambering reduces the deflection under the loads, being one of the requirements of deflection checking. For usual simple supported girders the problem is relatively simple, more complex is the pre-cambering problem at continuous and frame structures, especially in bridges where different construction phases and also positions of the convoy have to be considered. The present paper describes the calculus of the deflection and the necessity of pre-cambering in structural elements including a case study: a railway composite integral bridge.
