Study on the Load Test of Xiangjiang Cable-Stayed Bridge

Xiangjiang Bridge is a newly built bridge. In order to understand the actual working condition and the bearing capacity of the bridge, the static and dynamic tests are carried out. This paper describes the principles and methods of the load test and the measurement of the stiffness and dynamic characteristics of the bridge structure. Through analyzing the test, the data and information of bridge can be accumulated and the mechanical characteristic of this kind of bridge is discussed.
