Abstract:
According to the formulas and program of the deflection theory of self-anchored suspension bridges, the effects of rise-span ratio, side to center span ratio, girder stiffness, as well as if there is outside stretching span and the length of it, on the internal force and the deformation and horizontal tension of the main cable, are studied. Results show that larger rise-span ratio will decrease the axial force of girders due to live load, and increase the structural stiffness. The influence of rise-span ratio to the mechanical performance of self-anchored suspension bridges is explained analytically. The results show that structural stiffness will be decreased with increasing side to center span ratio. Conclusion is also given with regard to outside stretching span and structural stiffness. The static properties of self-anchored suspension bridge are summarized comprehensively.
