STRUCTURAL BEHAVIOR MONITORING AND ADJUSTING SYSTEM USED IN SUPERSTRUCTURE CONSTRUCTION OF PRESTRESSED CONCRETE CABLE-STAYED BRIDGE, YOBUKO-OHASHI BRIDGE

Construction of Nagisa Bridge Hybrid System of Cable-stayed Pc Bridge and Steel Suspension Bridge

Nagisa Bridge, a single span footbridge, was recently completed in Aomori prefecture, Japan. The structure of this bridge is a hybrid structure of cable-stayed prestressed concrete bridge and steel suspension bridge. It is the first application as this structure type of bridge in the world. Concrete girders near pylons are supported by stay cables. Steel girders are supported by suspension cabl...

Online Deflection Monitoring System for Dafosi Cable-Stayed Bridge

A health monitoring system was designed and installed on Dafosi Bridge, the largest cable-stayed bridge across the Yangtze River in western China. This article briefly describes an online deflection monitoring system, the most important sensing subsystem of the health monitoring system. It can be divided into two major components, one for measurement, and one for control and data processing. Th...

Integrated System of Structural Health Monitoring and Intelligent Management for a Cable-Stayed Bridge

It is essential to construct structural health monitoring systems for large important bridges. Zhijiang Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge that was built recently over the Hangzhou Qiantang River (the largest river in Zhejiang Province). The length of Zhijiang Bridge is 478 m, which comprises an arched twin-tower space and a twin-cable plane structure. As an example, the present study describes th...
