10 10 Taiwan High Speed Rail, Contract C 210, Warren Truss Steel Bridge, Design Unit 08 THSRC; the Taiwan High Speed Rail Corporation; the BOT concessionaire company responsible for the 345 km high speed rail project between Taipei and Kaohsiung. Design Construct Lot C 210; for the Obayashi / Futsu; OF Joint Venture. Steel Truss Bridge, Design Unit Feasibility study - Preliminary design - Detailed design - Contractors consultant Background Service were provided to the OF joint venture for the preliminary and detail design of the 1,800 ton Warren truss steel bridge in DU 08 to cross a busy highway in northern Taiwan. The method of construction was to preassemble the rectangular shaped welded box sections and launch the bridge into position; however it was later decided to fully erect the bridge in place on temporary supports. The bridge had a span of 65 m and consisted of two parallel steel trusses joined by cross beams; and utilized a composite concrete slab for the high speed rail deck. The steel truss bridge design called for a rigorous investigation into the dynamic behaviour of the bridge to limit the vertical acceleration, cant and end rotations.

The 3 bridges were for the main line rail south and north bound and the branch line to Wurih Depot. The parallel bridges cross the North - South Freeway, the Fazi River and Provincial Highway #1. Each bridge comprised of two parallel trusses joined by cross beams; and were fabricated from welded steel box sections; and then assembled using over 600,000 high strength bolts. Each bridge consisting of 3 continuous spans m; 441 m long, and the weight for all three bridges was 24,000 tons. To avoid any road traffic disturbances, a sophisticated erection scheme was devised to preassemble the first two bridge spans; on temporary supports in the center; and launch this bridge to the south abutment using a 108 m long launching nose beam. Then this bridge was moved sideways into its final position on the west side. The erection procedure was repeated for the next bridge truss, which was launched and then moved into its final position on the east side. The third truss was then erected and launched between the two previously erected bridges. A concrete slab was cast for the track deck after checking the final level and alignment of each of the three bridges. The steel truss bridge design called for a rigorous investigation into the dynamic behaviour of these bridges; to limit the vertical acceleration, cant and end rotation. A rolling stock analysis was carried out on the bridge structural elements; and mechanical shear keys added to each bridge to resist the horizontal seismic forces. Two pot bearings (per span per truss); the largest ever to be manufactured; now support the three bridges. A series of shock transmitting units were installed to ensure the uniform distribution of the longitudinal seismic forces among the supporting piers.
