In appearance, the two-way curved arch bridge has strong national cultural characteristics. The prefabricated components of the two-way curved arch bridge are fragmentary, complicated in bearing and poor in integrity. Most of the two-way curved arch bridges in service have been built for a long time and lack of maintenance and management. Increasing the cross-section reinforcement method is one of the two-way curved arch reinforcement methods. It has a significant effect, convenient construction, good rigidity and stability characteristics after the reinforcement. Through theoretical analysis, combined with a static load test results of the assessment of the bridge reinforcement effect. Through load test, it is found that the deflection of the arch rib after reinforcement is reduced by 9%~19% and the strain of the arch rib is reduced by 12%~22%. Through finite element calculation, the crack width of the reinforced arch rib decreases by 8.3%~14.2%. The results show that the stress and deflection are greatly improved by the method of increasing section.}, type={Article}, title={Research on reinforcement technology of existing double-way curved arch bridge}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/120013/35.ACE-00241v.3_B5.pdf}, doi={10.24425/ace.2021.137186}, keywords={increasing the cross-section reinforcement method, two-way curved arch bridge, reinforcement effect}, }
