Description
TECHNICAL FIELD OF INVENTION

Present invention refers to a erection method by simple tower instrument devices on building upper bridge construction, especially relates to simple tower instrument devices (cable stayed) in form of tower construction as supporting structure and the cable functions as hanging upper bridge structure, also bearing function as additional tie cable to said tower during pulling activity using twin ram jack unit or multi-strand M-PV in order to construct upper part of bridge so that no need hammer and winch any longer. Further of present invention, refers to simple tower instrument devices as help device during construction process on wide river, result minimize disturbance to river traffic such as pontoon, ship, raft, etc, which will be able to go through freely during the construction, plus minimize accident level. This erection method using simple tower instrument devices may utilize existence bridge pillars, also adjustable tower dimension and cable with designed construction specification and results cost and duration saving.

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

As technology development, especially bridge construction for wide range, the experts compete to improve quality of bridge construction and speed to proceed it self.

Many methods and devices are available to build bridge construction for wide bentangan have some obstacles or weaknesses which effect some destruction.

Usually, previous building bridge construction especially for wide range uses conventional method, which use scaffolding as well as crane, pontoon, tugboat, and gauge in every step, the provide cable tension to bridge construction pillars. This method needs more manpower and long duration to construct the continues bridge. Also, said erection process is sensitive to water stream and river bed situation. It is hard to do because the pontoon will be inhibited by the stones. Other obstacles are longer duration, high cost, and sensitive to transportation vehicle crush, like pontoon, ship, raft, etc.

Another obstacle is that piles prohibit wooden material as temporary pile due to water condition. It causes using steel pile and high cost thereof. Indeed, high cost for temporary job. Other, numerous pillar will inhibit river traffic so that disturb traffic safety and performance.

Further, during beginning of process which cranes pile scaffolding one by one, pontoon, tugboat, and gauges to construct arc construction and flat frame, so that needs hammer and winch and additional time and fund, also complicated devices.

Another obstacle related to technical factor due to accurate tool to erect premier pillar. Whether there is one mistake, the strength of building will be reduced. In other words, the strength of upper bridge construction is influenced very much by posed premier pillar.

To solve these problems, proposed an erection method by using simple tower instrument (cable stayed) which consists of tower construction as supporting structure and cable to hang upper bridge construction, also bearings as additional help device to tie up to tower and provide tension by twin ram jack and multi-strand M-PV. This simple tower structure functions to support constructing upper bridge portion on wide river so that no disturbance to river traffic. Present erection method may use existence pillars, as well as adjustable tower and cable dimension to reduce the cost and duration.

Meanwhile pontoon number (c) do arc construction installation on right side of end point for arc construction segment 1 until segment 13. As shown in FIG. 16, the arc (1) construction has erected from starting point wise.

As shown in FIG. 17, arc (1) construction erection which proceed from end point, and use same method of arc (1) construction installation on starting point. Pontoon (14) position number (c) move to right side of pontoon (14) number (d). after stable, proceed arc (1) construction installation on left starting point for arc (1) construction segment 1 until segment 13, and at the same time, proceed bracing (5) fastener segmental, thus move to pontoon number (e). Where pontoon (14) number (e) proceed arc (1) construction installation on right side of end point for arc (a) construction segment 1 until segment 13. At the same time, bracing (5) tied segmental refers to arc (1) construction installation rightward. Prior arc (1) construction installation per segment, rear cable anchor (11) installed on desired position, e.g. on pillar (6b). Rear cable (8b) installation to provide simple structure stabilization during erecting of arc (1) construction. Also shown in FIG. 18 that process of arc (1) construction erection has accomplished for end point side. After every arc construction installed, supporting cables (8a, 8b) are plugged, the left side and right side, at the same time. After that, unplugging tower may be preceding by crane (13) which posed on pontoon (14) segment by segment.
