许多高速公路桥严重地在 2008 Wenchuan 地震期间被损坏或完全崩溃了。领域调查在强烈影响的区域被执行,超过 320 座桥被检验。一些代表性的高速公路桥的损坏简短被描述,损坏的可能的原因的初步的分析在这篇论文被介绍。最普通的损坏包括了墩列的砍曲折的失败,扩大关节失败,砍关键失败,并且 girder 由于在 girder 和轴承之间的弱连接在横过或纵的方向滑动。从这地震接受的教训被描述并且与弄弯并且扭曲的桥的设计有关的建议,轴承和设备的设计被介绍阻止桥墩的 girder 倒塌,和韧性。为未来的建议为桥在的地震设计和翻新的技术对严重地震区域中等也被建议。
Many highway bridges were severely damaged or completely collapsed during the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake. A field investigation was carried out in the strongly affected areas and over 320 bridges were examined. Damage to some representative highway bridges is briefly described and a preliminary analysis of the probable causes of the damage is presented in this paper. The most common damage included shear-flexural failure of the pier columns, expansion joint failure, shear key failure, and girder sliding in the transversal or longitudinal directions due to weak connections between girder and bearings. Lessons learned from this earthquake are described and recommendations related to the design of curved and skewed bridges, design of bearings and devices to prevent girder collapse, and ductility of bridge piers are presented. Suggestions for future seismic design and retrofitting techniques for bridges in moderate to severe earthquake areas are also proposed.
