    Abstract
  • The new research progress and engineering application of weathering steel bridges at home and abroad were systematically generalized and analyzed. The key scientific and technological achievements in the fields of formation mechanism of stable corrosion-resistant patina, material selection standard, corrosion and fatigue damage mechanism, research and development of corrosion-resistant configuration and weathering bolt, and detection and evaluation technology of patina were summarized. The application scope and corrosion allowance design indexes of weathering steel bridges were combed and improved, and the key points of stabilization treatment and construction technology for the patina of weathering steel bridges were proposed. The damage detection and evaluation technology and corrosion damage maintenance and management technology of patina in weathering steel bridges were evaluated and analyzed. Combined with the experience and lessons of weathering steel bridge engineering accidents in the United States and Japan, as well as the construction technological innovation achievements of the first batch of long lasting high performance weathering steel bridges in China, the technological innovation direction in this field was discussed. Research result shows that the composition of corrosion-resistant patina contains the outer layer of γ-FeOOH and α-FeOOH, and the inner layer of amorphous FeOOH compound and Fe3O4. The formation and durability of stable corrosion-resistant patina are mainly affected by the factors such as chloride ion, accumulated water and dust. The material selection zoning map of high performance weathering steel bridges in China is suggested to establish, and the configuration design criterion of stable corrosion-resistant patina should be improved. The modern weathering steel bridge has the technical characteristics of high performance and long lasting. The in-plane stress fatigue, out-of-plane deformation fatigue test, numerical fracture mechanics simulation of configuration details with patina and the research on the long-term damage resistance of weathering high-strength bolts should be promoted to lay the foundation for establishing a perfect design criterion of anti-corrosion and anti-fatigue. The application of artificial intelligence technology will promote the significant progress of intelligent management and maintenance technology of long lasting high performance weathering steel bridges. The investment for research and development should be increased, a specification system should be established for the design, construction and maintenance of long lasting high performance weathering steel bridges with independent intellectual property rights in China, the high-quality engineering and technical talents should be cultivated, thus to promot the development of Chinese strong transportation network.
