The study object is a prototype of a composite bridge prestressed concrete beam with a length of 42.0 m for road bridge desks for perception of impact from motor vehicles in the form of A14, NK-120 and NK-180 loads.
The experimental deflection of the beam in the midspan had a value equal to fexp = 62.4 mm at a load of 2Pк = 436 kN, which was 75.2% of the control deflection value.
Based on the test results, the girder block joints with "tooth" and "notch" device are found to be imperfect.
The experimental load of 2PMAX = 822.7 kN was achieved during the tests, which exceeded the control load equal to 2Pк = 744 kN when checking the strength of the composite beam and the control load equal to 2Pк = 790 kN when checking the strength of No. 1 and No. 2 joints.
The paper presents the results of a test on a composite bridge girder of a length of 42.0 m, which was performed to assess its resistance, stiffness and crack resistance. Composite reinforced concrete beam with three blocks is joined by the two monolithic joints. When testing a beam with monolithic joint in terms of stiffness, crack resistance and strength, a load of 943.5 kN was achieved without cracking, which is 26.8 % higher than the required one.
The 33.0 m long reinforced concrete bridge beams of the overpass superstructure after vehicular impacts were taken as a research object. The overpass consists of 14 beams, six of which were repaired by restoring the widened lower part with EMACO FAST TIXO, manufactured by BASF. The remaining 8 beams were completely dismantled and replaced with new ones. The new beams have been fully tested for the perception of vehicular loads. The fully reconstructed span structure showed compliance with the design loads of A14, NK-120 and NK-180 based on test results.
The article presents results of the overpass condition survey, technical survey, static tests and assessment of the structure operational reliability, a doubledecker overpass on Almaty-Kapshagai highway section in Kazakhstan. Technical survey determined the dimensions of the overpass, the camber of reinforced concrete superstructures main beams and checked the values of the overpass roadway actual transverse and longitudinal slopes. The calculation and analytical assessment of the overpass load-bearing structures, for the strength of the bending moment, are performed. Static tests of the overpass split beam superstructure of a length of 33.0m were conducted. Trucks loaded with ballast were accepted as a test load.
