Reliability Analysis of the Main Pier during the Construction Period of HLCR Bridges

In the process of cradle construction for high-pier, long-span, continuous, rigid-frame (HLCR) bridges, the strength failure and instability damage of the main pier will directly affect the bridge construction safety. Therefore, it is necessary to study the reliability of the main pier during the co...

description In the process of cradle construction for high-pier, long-span, continuous, rigid-frame (HLCR) bridges, the strength failure and instability damage of the main pier will directly affect the bridge construction safety. Therefore, it is necessary to study the reliability of the main pier during the construction of HLCR bridges. This paper starts from the factors that easily affect the stability of the main pier during HLCR bridge cradle construction, establishes the resistance and load probability model of the main pier during the maximum cantilever stage and the maximum unbalanced load of the continuous, rigid-frame bridge’s hanging cradles, fully considers the influence of random factors on the reliability of the pier, and calculates and analyzes the reliability index β through calculation examples. The results show that the changes of various random factors during the construction process have different degrees of influence on the reliability of the bridge pier. Our work provides a basis for the safe control of hanging cradles in the construction of HLCR bridges.
