Influence of External Tendons on Dynamic Characteristics of Box Girder with Corrugated Steel Webs

Abstract:

Based on Miyamoto’s method, the natural frequency of prestressed box girder with corrugated steel webs considering the impact of external tendons was obtained. And the result was modified based on the finite element model. It shows that: the external tendons will reduce the natural frequency of bridge with reduced range of about 3%. Beneficial references were provided to the layout of external tendons in order to avoid the resonance between the box girder with corrugated steel webs and the external tendons.
