Application of Holt Hoops in Cover Beam Construction
The method of using cap beam holt hoops for construction is a non support cap beam construction technique.It bears the construction load of the cover beam through the friction between the hoop and the pier column,which is not affected by terrain,saves support,and is easy to construct.It also reduces construction costs,facilitates civilized construction on site,shortens the construction period,accelerates construction progress,and improves economic benefits.Taking the approach span cover beam of Zhanghe Bridge as an example,this paper elaborates on the construction technology,construction method,quality acceptance standards,and acceptance indicators of the hoop method cover beam,and verifies whether the hoop stress during the cover beam construction meets the construction requirements.
