Abstract

Stability is crucial to concrete filled steel tubular arch bridge,which is more dangerous than strength damage.Up to now, the nonlinear stability analysis of deck-type concrete filled steel tubular(CFST)arch bridge is studied less.A spatial nonlinear model is established and the linear and nonlinear analyses of stability on a large- span CFST arch bridge are made.Discussions on symmetrical and asymmetrical initial imperfections are studied and results show that they would weaken the stability of the deck- type CFST arch bridge.The results may be valuable for the design and construction of such kind of bridges.
