Abstract:To analyze the deformation of concrete-filled steel tubular piers of bicycle bridges under different impact forces in Xiamen City, Fujian Province, 20 impact loads corresponding to different impact velocities of 40, 60, 80, 100, and 120 kN/h, from cars, light vehicles, medium vehicles, and heavy vehicles were calculated based on AASHTO code design formulas in America. A three-dimensional model of a bicycle viaduct is established using SAP2000 finite-element software. The results show that the pier is still in an elastic state when it is subjected to the impact load of a car and light truck. Under the impact of a medium-size truck with velocity ≥ 100 km/h or that of a heavy truck with velocity=100 km/h, the pier enters the plastic state and the maximum plastic rotation angle is 0.28E-3 rad and 0.64E-3 rad, respectively, but the overall plastic deformation is within the controllable range. When a heavy truck impacts with 120 km/h, the pier will enter the plastic stage in a large range, and this will probably directly affect the normal service function of the bridge.
