| Abstract: |
An caisson was adopted for the middle tower foundation of Taizhou Bridge. The shallow foundation calculation formula commonly used by chinese designer is not applicable for the middle tower foundation located above the 200-meter overlying deposit in the water. Model test and 3D numerical simulation analysis are simultaneously conducted for Taizhou Bridge, to obtain the foundation soil bearing capacity of the open caisson foundation of the middle tower and ensure the structural safety and stability. |
