Abstract

Most parts of wind loads on a large span cable-stayed bridge are caused by cables. It is very important to determine wind forces on cables exactly for bridge design and analysis. Through wind tunnel tests, aerodynamic forces of 8 types of cables with different surface roughness were measured, the influences of surface roughness on Reynolds number effect and aerodynamic force characteristics were studied, the maximum wind load on a cable of a practical bridge was calculated. Results showed that the cable surface roughness has obvious effects on aerodynamic force; with increase in the cable surface roughness, Reynolds number effect decreases gradually; for different surface roughness of a cable, wind velocities corresponding to the maximum wind loads are different; for real bridge design, the maximum wind loads of cables should be determined according to their surface roughness. 


 

Key words
