Abstrait: |
The Cortenoeverse bridge is a multi-span pre-stressed concrete box girder bridge near Zutphen, the Netherlands. Following the discovery of certain damages at the sides of the bridge where post- tensioned tendons are stressed, several repairs have already taken place. The Dutch agency Rijkswaterstaat (RWS) still deemed it desirable to further investigate the structural safety and usability of the whole bridge during the residual service life. Subsequently. ABT was commissioned to perform a verification calculation. Finite element analysis (FEA) was applied to analyse the structural behaviour of the bridge. Compared to analytical methods, FEA can simulate the occurring forces more accurately and give more insights into the structural behaviour of the bridge. The bridge was modelled using 2.5D curved shell elements with embedded reinforcements subjected to post- tensioning loads. An overview is given for the FEM model, the calculation procedure and the results. |
