摘要
Zhongshan Bridge is a kind of steel arch bridge with a particular space-combined structure. The rationality of design, accuracy of theoretical calculation and reliability of transportation were studied. Its design, FEM calculation of stresses and strains, and model test were introduced in detail. The theoretical analysis and model test verified that the design was reliable and safe. The simulated stresses, rigidity and stability, which are based on the selected loading system and cross-section geometry, satisfy the related design standards. Some of the issues that need to be considered in the real bridge construction were also discussed.
