Study on Model Experiment of Prestressed Concrete Skewed Box Girder with Transversely Segmental Construction

he　prestressed　concrete　skewed　box　girder　with　transversely　segmental　construction　was　brought　out　on　the　basis　of　the　need　in　the　engineering,both　model　experiments　and　FE　analysis　of　the　presented　construction　and　the　beam　box　with　integral　construction　were　carried　out　With　the　analysis　of　the　obtained　data　by　mathematical　statistics,comparison　of　table　and　graph,and　the　corresponding　FE　analysis,the　difference　of　mechanical　performances　of　both　constructions　was　analyzed　under　various　experimental　loading　cases　The　results show　that　(1)　the　deflection　of　the　presented　construction　is　about　53%　larger　than　that　of　the　beam　box　with　integral　construction,the　longitudinal　strain　is　135%　larger　than　that　of　the　latter,and　the　longitudinal　strain　of　the　cast　concrete　is　59％　as　large　as　that　of　the　same　area　at　the　beam　box　with　integral　construction　before　concrete　cracking;　(2)　there　exists　stress　redistribution　in　the　cross-section　of　presented　construction,which　can　restrain　the　tensional　distortion　of　the　wet?joint,and　the　value　of　the　stress　cannot　be　computed　by　the　current　FE　program
