Abstract: The present invention provides an experimental device for the long-term loading and simultaneous measurement of a concrete-encased concrete-filled steel tube structure. The device comprises a loading component, a load measurement component, a deformation measurement component, and the concrete-encased concrete-filled steel tube structure. The loading component mainly consists of loading plates, loading rods, nuts, and pre-tightened disc springs. The load measurement component comprises force sensors. The deformation measurement component mainly consists of measurement devices. The concrete-encased concrete-filled steel tube structure serve as the load-bearing structure. By inventing the experimental device for the long-term loading and simultaneous measurement of the concrete-encased concrete-filled steel tube structure, it achieves phased loading and simultaneous measurement of internal forces and deformations of the embedded concrete filled steel tube and the external reinforced concrete.

Abstract: A method for rapid and safe construction and intelligent monitoring and controlling of continuous arch bridges, which using a single-arch rib construction method, when installing a new arch rib segment, the clasp cable is immediately extended, and then using an intelligent control cable to ensure that the pier and anchorage tower are in a balanced state. The newly installed segment is no longer in a cantilever state, and the loading on the flange is very small, resulting in a small change in the tension force for the clasp cables of the previous segments. The present invention saves more than half of the clasp cable usage, reduces the number of transverse movements of the cable crane system, and significantly shortens the construction period. The construction method which using intelligent control cables to balance the unbalance loading on the middle pier, could be applied to the construction of continuous arch bridges.

Abstract: A double-ring shaped strong magnet array nonlinear dynamic vibration absorber for vibration mitigation of suspender cables and design method thereof, which belongs to the field of structural vibration control. The installation positions and number are designed according to the demand of vibration mitigation, and usually one is installed at the midpoint of the suspender cable. The vibration absorber consists of the inner and outer magnet ring arrays, the additional weights, the universal wheels and a base. It feeds back the control force in the opposite direction of the motion of the suspender cable during the movement, so that the vibration energy of the suspender cable is transferred to the vibration absorber and thus less is returned to the suspender cable, and the energy dissipated through the friction between the universal wheels and the base, adding air dampers and other measures, etc.

Abstract: The invention discloses a calculation method of ultimate moment resistance and moment-rotation relation for steel beam to concrete-filled steel tube column connections with bidirectional bolts, wherein the calculation method as follows: calculate ultimate moment resistance values of the connection for different failure modes, i.e. yielding of the endplate or T-stub in bending, failure of bolts in tension, failure of column in transverse compression, failure of panel zone in shear, and yielding of the steel beam in bending; the smallest one in the five ultimate moment resistance values is taken as the ultimate moment resistance of the connection; obtain the initial rotational stiffness of the connection by the test, simulation or theoretical calculation; then, the moment-rotation curve of the connection is obtained by substituting the initial rotational stiffness and the ultimate moment resistance into the proposed exponential model for the moment-rotation relation.

Abstract: A new design and rapid construction method for flush assembly of prefabricated steel beams and floor slabs is disclosed. The upper flange of prefabricated steel beams is “” shaped, which consists of horizontal flange, vertical flange and top flange. Both beam stiffeners and studs are set on the horizontal flange, in which the former can strengthen the bearing capacity of the beam and avoid its local deformation, and the latter can fix the floor slab; prefabricated studs and precast concrete inside the vertical flange in the factory are used to constrain the deformation of upper flange. There is no limitation with respect to the form of floor slab, which is connected with the prefabricated steel beam by hitching the prefabricated rebar ring of the floor slab to the welded studs of the upper flange of the prefabricated steel beam.
