英文原文 A new way to design suspenders for through and half-through arch bridges R.J. Jiang, Y.Y. Chen, Q.M. Wu, W.M. Gai and D.M. PengShenzhen Municipal Design Research Institute, Shenzhen, China 1 ABSTRACT It is well-known that, in through and half-through arch bridges, the suspenders are important components since they connect the bridge deck to the arch ribs. The collapse of bridge deck or arch ribs may be induced once one or more suspenders are broken. In this paper,the traditional design way of the suspenders in through and half-through arch bridges is discussed first. Based on the discussion, a new way to design suspenders for arch bridges is then put forward. The reasonability of this new way is proved by numerical analysis examples. The impact effect of the remaining components of the arch bridge due to the breakage of one or more suspenders is obtained by appropriate simulation using the comprehensive commercial software ANSYS. It can be concluded from the analysis in this paper that the new way to design the suspenders for the through and half-through arch bridges can assure the safety of the bridge effectively even though one or more suspenders happen to break. 2 INTRODUCTION With the rapid development of new materials and construction technologies, the modern arch bridges are now entering a new era. The span length of the modern arch bridges is increasing,and the first two longest modern arch bridges are the Chaotianmen Yangtse River Bridge and the Lu pu bridge, respectively. The Chaotianmen Yangtse River Bridge built in 2008 is a tied steel truss arch bridge with a span length of 552m; and the Lupu Bridge built in 2003 is a steel box arch bridge with a central span length of 550m. They are both half-through arch bridges and respectively located in Chongqing and Shanghai, China.Arch bridges can be classified into three categories according to the relative positions between the deck and the arch: deck-arch bridge, half-through arch brid
