Technique for Construction of the Cap Beam of the Door-Shape Piers of an Overpass Transversal to the Contact Wire of an Existing Railway Xinmin Xie China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation, Beijing, 100038, China xiexinmin@ccecc.com.cn Key words: Railway in operation, Contact wire, Overpass, Construction Method Abstract: In the construction of an overpass transversal to an existing electric railway, when the overpass pier is door-shaped, and, when the clearance height from the bottom of the door-shaped pier cap beam to the contact wire electrified body is too small to use steel beam or I-beam for holding the formwork and meet the safety need prescribed by the Ministry of Railways, an innovative construction method was employed, in which D-type steel beams, originally used for railway track reinforcement, was lifted to get across the contact wire and the catenary from above with a gap more than 33.8cm, resting on the top surface of temporary buttress, and letting stocky horizontal
The force performance of the various components of the D-type steel beam is able to meet the security requirements, and, while engineering practice also has indeed verified that it meets security requirements.
