Abstract:

According to the field condition, simple, safe, reliable and lowcost tower cranes and steel pipe scaffolds are selected for the construction of the high piers of a highway bridge. In the paper the author focuses on the introduction of the construction methods such as, selection of tower cranes, steel formwork processing, fastenerstyle steel pipe scaffold building, surveying and setting out, reinforcement bar processing and installation, formwork installation, the production, transportation and casting of concrete and the formwork removal and curing. Problems like high cost and low safety in the construction are solved due to the construction methods presented above.
