Abstract

Longshan Bridge is located on the mainstream of the Han River in the Danjiangkou Reservoir. The main bridge takes a 6-span prestressed concrete continuous beam with a solid pier and bored piles as the foundation. The construction of piers 7 #~9 # of the main bridge, which are far away from the riverbank, adopts the scheme of first boxed cofferdam and then pile. In this scheme, the zone of the boxed cofferdam was located by the positioning device on the nearby completed pier, and the boxed cofferdam was installed. Then, the new piles were derived by a vibration hammer combined with a floating sleeve. The concrete volume for a pier is 4937.52m3, which makes the temperature hard to control during the pouring process. Therefore, the water cycle pipe system is used for mass concrete cooling, and thermal destruction is almost eliminated because of the reasonable pipeline distribution. In this paper, the double-wall steel boxed cofferdam technology and concrete temperature control technology for the large-volume cushion cap were introduced. Then, by combining numerical simulation and on-site monitoring, the key points of such technology were analysed and discussed.
