Description
L'invention a pour objet une travée de pont métallique et un procédé de construction modulaire d'une telle travée.The subject of the invention is a metal bridge span and a method of modular construction of such a span.
Le terme pont désigne ici toute construction métallique reposant sur au moins deux appuis écartés tels que des culées ou des piliers, afin de franchir une vallée ou de croiser une autre voie de circulation routière ou ferroviaire.The term bridge designates here any metallic construction based on at least two spaced supports such as abutments or pillars, in order to cross a valley or to cross another road or rail traffic route.
Au cours d'opérations militaires ou à la suite de celles-ci, il est souvent nécessaire de réaliser rapidement des ouvrages de franchissement de rivières. Souvent, les culées et les piles des ponts sont restées en place et il suffit de poser un nouveau tablier.During or following military operations, it is often necessary to quickly construct river crossings. Often the abutments and piers of bridges have remained in place and a new deck is sufficient.
Dans ce but, on a développé, au cours de la seconde guerre mondiale, une technique de réalisation de ponts provisoires de type « BAILEY » constitués d'éléments préfabriqués assez légers pour être manipulés et assemblés manuellement de façon à réaliser deux poutres en treillis supportant un tablier.To this end, during the Second World War, a technique was developed for producing temporary "BAILEY" -type bridges made up of prefabricated elements light enough to be handled and assembled manually so as to produce two lattice girders supporting an apron.
Cependant, des conflits locaux entraînent encore des destructions. De même, des catastrophes naturelles, par exemple, des secousses sismiques ou des glissements de terrains peuvent détruire des ouvrages de franchissement qui doivent être reconstruits rapidement.However, local conflicts still lead to destruction. Likewise, natural disasters, for example earthquakes or landslides, can destroy crossings which must be rebuilt quickly.
Les techniques militaires, de type BAILEY, ne sont plus adaptées aux situations actuelles et c'est pourquoi, pour répondre à de tels besoins, la société déposante a développé, depuis quelques années, un nouveau procédé, beaucoup plus performant, de construction de ponts métalliques.Military techniques, of the BAILEY type, are no longer adapted to current situations and this is why, to meet such needs, the submitting company has developed, in recent years, a new, much more efficient process for the construction of bridges. metallic.
Dans ce procédé qui est décrit, notamment, dans le document
Les éléments de poutre sont munis, à leurs extrémités, de moyens d'assemblage amovible avec les extrémités de modules adjacents pour la formation d'une poutre longitudinale de support ayant une longueur correspondant à la portée entre appuis. Par assemblage bout à bout d'au moins deux éléments, on peut ainsi construire deux poutres longitudinales qui sont mises en place sur les appuis par un moyen de levage, tel qu'une grue, et sont reliées par les entretoises. Si les moyens de levage le permettent, on peut aussi fixer les entretoises à l'avance sur les deux poutres écartées et poser sur les appuis l'ensemble de la travée ainsi réalisée.The beam elements are provided, at their ends, with removable assembly means with the ends of adjacent modules for the formation of a longitudinal support beam having a length corresponding to the span between supports. By end-to-end assembly of at least two elements, it is thus possible to construct two longitudinal beams which are placed on the supports by a lifting means, such as a crane, and are connected by the spacers. If the lifting means allow it, the spacers can also be fixed in advance on the two spaced beams and put on the supports the whole of the span thus produced.
Il est également possible de lancer les poutres par poussage en les munissant d'un avant-bec.It is also possible to launch the beams by pushing by providing them with a nosepiece.
On pose alors sur les entretoises des profilés longitudinaux et, sur ces profilés, des panneaux consécutifs pour former la plateforme du pont.Longitudinal profiles are then placed on the spacers and, on these profiles, consecutive panels to form the platform of the bridge.
Un tel procédé, particulièrement rapide et économique, permet, non seulement, de reconstruire des ponts détruits, mais aussi de réaliser de nouveaux ouvrages. En effet, alors que les ponts provisoires de type « BAILEY » sont peu esthétiques, les poutres de support ainsi réalisées par assemblage bout à bout d'éléments préfabriqués sont semblables à celles d'un pont métallique classique. De plus, il est possible de réaliser des portées entre appuis relativement importantes, de plusieurs dizaines de mètres.Such a particularly rapid and economical process makes it possible not only to rebuild destroyed bridges, but also to build new structures. Indeed, while the temporary bridges of the “BAILEY” type are unsightly, the support beams thus produced by end-to-end assembly of prefabricated elements are similar to those of a conventional metal bridge. In addition, it is possible to achieve relatively large spans between supports, of several tens of meters.
Dans le mode de réalisation du document
Une telle disposition présente de multiples avantages. En particulier, de tels caissons sont assez stables à la pose et résistent à la torsion lors du levage ou du lançage de la poutre réalisée par assemblage bout à bout de plusieurs éléments.Such an arrangement has many advantages. In particular, such caissons are fairly stable on installation and resist torsion during lifting or launching of the beam produced by end-to-end assembly of several elements.
Toutefois, la réalisation de tels éléments en caissons est relativement complexe et demande un matériel spécialisé. De plus, les éléments doivent être protégés contre la corrosion et il est difficile de réaliser une telle protection à l'intérieur de caissons fermés.However, the production of such elements in boxes is relatively complex and requires specialized equipment. In addition, the elements must be protected against corrosion and it is difficult to achieve such protection inside closed boxes.
Par ailleurs, les poutres ainsi réalisées par assemblage bout à bout de plusieurs caissons sont relativement lourdes et nécessitent des moyens de levage adéquats.Moreover, the beams thus produced by end-to-end assembly of several caissons are relatively heavy and require adequate lifting means.
L'invention a pour objet de résoudre de tels problèmes, grâce à un nouveau type d'élément préfabriqué plus simple, moins lourd et plus facile à réaliser et à mettre en œuvre que les éléments utilisés jusqu'à présent et permettant, cependant, de conserver tous les avantages du procédé précédent.The object of the invention is to solve such problems, thanks to a new type of prefabricated element which is simpler, less heavy and easier to produce and to implement than the elements used hitherto and which, however, make it possible to retain all the advantages of the previous process.
L'invention apporte, en outre, de nombreux avantages propres qui seront décrits plus loin.The invention also provides numerous specific advantages which will be described below.
L'invention a donc pour objet une travée de pont selon la revendication 1.The subject of the invention is therefore a bridge span according to claim 1.
Dans le cas d'une poutre constituée de modules accolés, les orifices ménagés sur les nervures des faces internes, tournées l'une vers l'autre, de deux modules voisins, servent au boulonnage d'éclisses de solidarisation desdits modules alors que les orifices ménagés sur les nervures des faces tournées vers l'extérieur servent à la fixation des entretoises ou, sur les cotés, d'organes accessoires.In the case of a beam made up of adjoining modules, the orifices made on the ribs of the internal faces, turned towards one another, of two neighboring modules, are used for bolting the splices for securing said modules while the orifices provided on the ribs of the faces facing outwards are used for fixing the spacers or, on the sides, accessory members.
Par ailleurs, l'âme verticale de chaque module est avantageusement munie, à proximité de chaque nervure, d'une ouverture placée au niveau des orifices de fixation des entretoises ménagés sur ladite nervure, pour permettre la mise en place et le serrage, des deux cotés de l'âme, de moyens de fixation amovible des extrémités d'entretoises.Furthermore, the vertical core of each module is advantageously provided, near each rib, with an opening placed at the level of the fixing holes of the spacers provided on said rib, to allow the positioning and tightening, on both sides of the core, of removable fixing means of the ends of the spacers.
Selon une autre caractéristique préférentielle, les moyens d'assemblage entre deux modules adjacents comprennent, à une extrémité d'un premier module, deux plats épais fixés sur la semelle inférieure dudit module, de part et d'autre de l'âme et s'étendant vers l'extérieur de celle-ci, de façon à former une chape et, à l'extrémité opposée d'un second module, un plat épais unique muni d'une fente centrale d'emboîtement sur l'âme dudit module et s'étendant vers l'extérieur de celle-ci de façon à former un tenon emboîtable dans la chape du module adjacent, lesdits plats étant percés d'orifices alignés de passage d'une broche de solidarisation afin de constituer une liaison articulée à la partie inférieure des deux modules successifs qui prennent appui l'un sur l'autre par les extrémités en vis-à-vis de leurs semelles supérieures.According to another preferred characteristic, the assembly means between two adjacent modules comprise, at one end of a first module, two thick plates fixed to the lower flange of said module, on either side of the core and s' extending outwardly thereof, so as to form a yoke and, at the opposite end of a second module, a single thick plate provided with a central slot for interlocking on the core of said module and s 'extending outwardly thereof so as to form a stud which can be fitted into the yoke of the adjacent module, said flats being pierced with aligned orifices for the passage of a securing pin in order to constitute an articulated connection to the lower part of two successive modules which bear one on the other by the opposite ends of their upper flanges.

Par ailleurs, les éléments de poutre à profil en I selon l'invention permettent la mise en œuvre d'un procédé de construction modulaire selon la revendication 10.Furthermore, the beam elements with an I-profile according to the invention allow the implementation of a modular construction method according to claim 10.

De même, on pourra aussi réaliser au moins deux séries d'entretoises et au moins deux séries de panneaux de platelage, afin de réaliser des tabliers ayant des tabliers ayant au moins deux largeurs différentes. En particulier, en disposant d'au moins deux types de panneaux ayant une même longueur et des largeurs différentes, respectivement une grande et une petite largeur, on pourrait faire varier la largeur du tablier en plaçant côte à côte, entre deux poutres parallèles, soit deux panneaux de largeurs différentes, soit deux panneaux de même largeur.Likewise, at least two series of spacers and at least two series of decking panels can also be produced, in order to produce decks having decks having at least two different widths. In particular, by having at least two types of panels having the same length and different widths, respectively a large and a small width, the width of the deck could be varied by placing side by side, between two parallel beams, i.e. two panels of different widths, ie two panels of the same width.
En outre, il est intéressant de réaliser au moins deux séries d'entretoises et au moins deux séries de panneaux de platelage ayant au moins deux longueurs différentes, afin de construire des tabliers ayant au moins deux largeurs différentes.Furthermore, it is advantageous to make at least two series of spacers and at least two series of decking panels having at least two different lengths, in order to construct decks having at least two different widths.

Il est à noter que au moins l'une des poutres longitudinales de support parallèles voisines de la travée de pont selon l'invention est constituée d'au moins deux modules allongés accolés comme définit dans la revendication 1. Une travée d'un pont, telle que partiellement illustrée aux

Selon l'une des caractéristiques du procédé, chaque poutre longitudinale 10a, 10b est constituée d'un certain nombre d'éléments de poutres préfabriqués assemblés bout à bout et formant des modules dont le nombre dépend de la portée entre appuis à réaliser.According to one of the characteristics of the process, each
La
Dans le cas du document
Pour diminuer le risque de torsion de l'élément 3a, 3b, celui-ci est muni d'une pluralité de nervures de raidissement 20, écartées les unes et autres et réparties sur toute sa longueur, ces nervures 20 étant constituées de plats transversaux fixés sur les deux faces latérales 90,91 de l'âme 9, perpendiculairement à celle-ci, et s'étendant verticalement entre les deux semelles 7 et 8.To reduce the risk of torsion of the
Selon l'une des caractéristiques essentielles de l'invention, ces nervures de raidissement 20 servent à la fixation d'entretoises de liaison 2 entre les deux poutres longitudinales parallèles 10a, 10b, qui sont constituées chacune par assemblage bout à bout d'éléments préfabriqués. En outre, les éléments placés l'un en face de l'autre sur les deux poutres voisines 10a, 10b, sont constitués de modules identiques 3 et les nervures 20 sont donc réparties de la même façon sur les deux faces latérales 90, 91 de l'âme 9 de chaque module 3 de telle sorte que deux nervures fixées respectivement sur les faces en regard 91b, 90a, des deux poutres voisines 10a, 10b sont alignées suivant un plan vertical perpendiculaire à la direction longitudinale des deux poutres, les entretoises de liaison 2 entre celles-ci étant, ainsi, perpendiculaires à l'axe longitudinal de la travée E.According to one of the essential characteristics of the invention, these stiffening
D'autre part, les moyens d'assemblage ménagés respectivement aux extrémités en regard de deux éléments de poutre consécutifs sont constitués de pattes, respectivement femelle 5 et mâle 6, qui s'emboîtent l'une dans l'autre et sont reliées par un axe d'articulation.On the other hand, the assembly means provided respectively at the opposite ends of two consecutive beam elements consist of legs, respectively female 5 and male 6, which fit into each other and are connected by a articulation axis.
Ainsi, un module central 31 tel que représenté sur la
Les modules de rive 32 sont constitués de la même façon et comportent donc, comme représenté sur la
Comme le montre la
De la sorte, après assemblage, les modules 3 assemblés bout à bout pour former une poutre 10a, 10b et articulés au niveau de leurs semelles inférieures 7, prennent appui l'un sur l'autre par les bords extrêmes de leurs semelles supérieures 8 et, éventuellement, la partie supérieure des bords verticaux de leurs âmes 9.In this way, after assembly, the
A la fabrication, il est possible d'ajuster par usinage la position des bords extrêmes des semelles supérieures 8,, de façon à régler avec précision, à chaque extrémité, un angle d'inclinaison du plan de la semelle 8 avec le plan vertical de jonction P, afin de donner à la poutre de support 10a, 10b réalisée par assemblage des éléments, un profil en long légèrement convexe vers le haut.During manufacture, it is possible to adjust by machining the position of the end edges of the
D'autre part, comme le montrent les dessins, chaque nervure de raidissement 20 est munie d'une série d'orifices superposés 23 permettant la fixation, par boulonnage ou rivetage, de l'extrémité d'une entretoise de liaison 2 munie, à chaque extrémité, d'au moins deux orifices conjugués ayant le même écartement que les orifices 23 des nervures 20. Ceux-ci peuvent, d'ailleurs, être en plus grand nombre que les orifices des entretoises 2, afin de permettre un réglage de leur niveau par rapport aux semelles 8.On the other hand, as shown in the drawings, each stiffening
De préférence, pour faciliter la pose des boulons ou rivets, l'âme 9 de chaque module 3 est munie d'une ouverture 92 placée à proximité de chaque nervure 20, sensiblement au niveau des orifices 23. D'ailleurs, de tels orifices 92 peuvent aussi servir à la fixation d'éléments de contreventement s'étendant horizontalement, en oblique, entre les faces internes de deux poutres voisines.Preferably, to facilitate the fitting of the bolts or rivets, the core 9 of each
D'autre part, comme le montre la
Par ailleurs, selon une caractéristique essentielle de l'invention, certains éléments de poutre 10a ou 10b sont constitués de plusieurs modules accolés afin d'augmenter la résistance à la flexion de la poutre 10a ou 10b formée par assemblage de tels éléments. C'est ainsi que, dans l'exemple de réalisation représenté en perspective sur la
Comme les modules accolés sont identiques, leurs nervures de raidissement 20 viennent deux à deux l'une en face de l'autre, de même que les séries d'orifices 23. Ainsi, comme le montre, par exemple, la
Cependant, pour faciliter la fixation des éclisses, il peut aussi être avantageux de ménager sur chaque nervure 20, une seconde série d'orifices placés à un niveau inférieur.However, to facilitate the attachment of the fishplates, it may also be advantageous to provide on each
Par ailleurs, chacun des éléments de platelage est constitué d'un panneau rigide préfabriqué 4, comprenant une plaque rectangulaire 41, renforcée longitudinalement par une pluralité de profilés 42 soudés sur sa face inférieure et constituant des nervures de renforcement parallèles au grand coté du panneau 4 et donnant à celui-ci la rigidité nécessaire pour supporter les charges appliquées, compte tenu de l'entraxe des deux poutres voisines.Furthermore, each of the decking elements consists of a prefabricated rigid panel 4, comprising a
Dans un mode de réalisation préférentiel de l'invention représenté sur les
A titre d'exemple, la
Les éléments de platelage 4 sont constitués, comme indiqué plus haut, de panneaux rigides comprenant chacun une plaque rectangulaire 41, ayant une face supérieure de longueur l1 et de largeur l2, et une face inférieure sur laquelle sont soudés une pluralité de profilés longitudinaux 42 constituant des nervures de renforcement.The decking elements 4 consist, as indicated above, of rigid panels each comprising a
Comme représenté sur les
De ce fait, la largeur globale des panneaux 4 posés côte à côte doit correspondre à l'écartement e entre les bords internes en vis-à-vis des semelles supérieures 8a,8b des deux poutres 10a, 10b.Therefore, the overall width of the panels 4 placed side by side must correspond to the distance e between the internal edges vis-à-vis the
Dans le mode de réalisation représenté sur la
Cependant, comme indiqué plus haut, le tablier du pont doit ménager une largeur globale de passage respectant le gabarit de circulation routière, soit environ quatre mètres en simple voie et sept mètres en double voie.However, as indicated above, the bridge deck must provide an overall width of passage respecting the road traffic gauge, ie about four meters in single track and seven meters in double track.
En pratique, il sera intéressant de réaliser à l'avance deux types de panneaux préfabriqués ayant respectivement, par exemple, des largeurs l2 de 2010 mm et l'2 de 1210 mm.In practice, it will be advantageous to make in advance two types of prefabricated panels having respectively, for example,
Ainsi, dans le cas d'un pont à simple voie tel que représenté sur la
En revanche, pour un pont à double voie tel que représenté sur la
Mais il est aussi possible, par exemple de la façon représentée sur la
Par ailleurs, les panneaux 2 qui reposent sur les entretoises 6 doivent être fixés sur celles-ci. Ils auront, donc, de préférence, une longueur l1 égale à l'écartement des nervures 20 sur lesquelles sont fixées les entretoises 2. Celles-ci sont avantageusement constituées de deux profilés accolés qui peuvent être percés d'orifices de boulonnage venant en coïncidence avec des orifices conjugués 24 ménagés aux extrémités de chaque panneau 4, de la façon indiquée sur la
L'utilisation d'éléments de poutres à section transversale en I, donne, donc, de multiples possibilités.The use of beam elements with cross-section in I, therefore, gives multiple possibilities.
Mais en outre, il est aussi possible, dans un second mode de réalisation de l'invention, illustré par la
Comme le montre, en coupe transversale, la
Etant donné que les panneaux de platelage 2 sont disposés transversalement aux poutres de support, l'entraxe de celles-ci dépend de la longueur l1 donnée à ces panneaux.Since the
Comme le montre la
En revanche, dans le cas, représenté sur la
Par ailleurs, la largeur l2 de chaque panneau de platelage 2 est, de préférence, un sous-multiple de la longueur d'un élément de poutre 3, c'est-à-dire la distance entre les bords extrêmes de la semelle supérieure 8, afin que les éléments correspondants de deux poutres voisines soient recouverts par un nombre entier de panneaux 4.Furthermore, the width l2 of each
D'autre part, l'écartement entre deux poutres de support voisines, qui est assuré par les entretoises de liaison 2 et détermine la largeur globale du platelage, dépend de la longueur des panneaux. Or, cette largeur globale doit respecter le gabarit de circulation routière, c'est à dire quatre mètres en simple voie et de sept mètres en double voie.On the other hand, the spacing between two neighboring support beams, which is provided by the connecting
En pratique, afin de donner au tablier la largeur nécessaire, on disposera d'au moins deux types de panneaux 2 de longueurs différentes pour former le platelage du pont, d'une part, pour un pont à simple voie, des panneaux ayant une longueur l1 de 4,60 m reposant sur deux poutres parallèles 10a, 10b (
Pour permettre cette variation de l'entraxe des poutres en utilisant un très petit nombre de panneaux de platelage, chacun de ceux-ci est muni, à chaque extrémité, de deux pattes d'appui longitudinales écartées, qui sont constituées de plats 44 soudés sur les bords inférieurs des cloisons 43 fixées verticalement sur la face inférieure de la plaque rectangulaire 41.To allow this variation in the center distance of the beams by using a very small number of decking panels, each of these is provided, at each end, with two spaced apart longitudinal support legs, which consist of
Chaque panneau 4 peut ainsi prendre appui, par l'intermédiaire de quatre pattes longitudinales 44, sur les semelles supérieures de deux poutres voisines. De préférence, une bande de matière plastique telle que du néoprène est collée sur toute la longueur de l'élément, au droit de l'âme 9, de façon à s'interposer entre les pattes d'appui 44 et la semelle 8.Each panel 4 can thus be supported, by means of four
De plus, la semelle supérieure de chaque module 3, pourra être munie de plusieurs paires d'orifices de boulonnage placés respectivement de part et d'autre de l'âme 9 et répartis sur la longueur du module 3 à des intervalles correspondant à la largeur l2 des panneaux 4 de façon que, à la pose d'un panneau 4, les orifices de deux paires successives viennent en alignement avec des orifices conjugués ménagés sur les deux pattes d'appui 44 du panneau 4 et ayant le même entraxe. Ainsi, après la pose d'un panneau, il est possible de fixer celui-ci en faisant passer dans les orifices alignés, des rivets ou boulons qui peuvent être montés et serrés au moyen d'une clef passant dans des ouvertures correspondantes ménagées sur la plaque supérieure 41 du panneau 4.In addition, the upper flange of each
Comme on l'a indiqué plus haut, la longueur l1, l'1 des panneaux 2 et l'entraxe des poutres de support doivent correspondre à la largeur du tablier à réaliser.As indicated above, the length l1, l1 of the
Dans le cas d'un pont à simple voie tel que représenté sur la
Pour un pont à double voie tel que représenté sur la
Il est ainsi possible de faire varier la largeur du tablier en fonction des besoins.It is thus possible to vary the width of the apron as needed.
Il apparaît, donc, que l'ensemble des dispositions qui viennent d'être décrites permet, à partir d'un très petit nombre d'éléments préfabriqués de faire varier toutes les caractéristiques du pont ainsi réalisé, afin de répondre à de multiples besoins.It therefore appears that all the arrangements which have just been described make it possible, from a very small number of prefabricated elements, to vary all the characteristics of the bridge thus produced, in order to meet multiple needs.
Tout d'abord, il est possible de construire des ponts de différentes portées en faisant varier le nombre et les longueurs individuelles des éléments assemblés bout à bout, bien entendu jusqu'à une certaine limite.First of all, it is possible to construct bridges of different spans by varying the number and the individual lengths of the elements assembled end to end, of course up to a certain limit.
D'autre part, du fait que chacun des éléments de poutre 3 comporte, sur les deux faces de son âme 9, des nervures 20 sur lesquelles sont ménagés des orifices 23 de fixation des entretoises 2, il est possible, à partir des mêmes éléments préfabriqués, de réaliser des ponts à voie unique reposant sur deux poutres voisines ou bien à voie double reposant sur trois poutres, avec deux poutres latérales 10a, 10b, fixées par des entretoises 2, de part et d'autre d'une poutre centrale 10c. Selon l'invention, comme indiqué plus haut, les éléments de poutre 3 sont constitués de modules accolés, au moins pour la poutre centrale, afin d'augmenter la résistance à la flexion de celle-ci.On the other hand, due to the fact that each of the
Cependant, pour augmenter la résistance à la flexion d'une poutre de support, il est aussi possible d'augmenter la hauteur de l'âme 9 et, par conséquent, le module d'inertie des éléments de cette poutre, de la façon représentée, par exemple, sur les
L'invention permet donc de faire varier non seulement la longueur et la largeur d'une travée de pont, mais également sa résistance, en utilisant, pour sa construction, seulement trois types d'éléments préfabriqués, respectivement des éléments de poutre 3, des entretoises 2 et des panneaux de platelage 4.The invention therefore makes it possible to vary not only the length and the width of a bridge span, but also its resistance, by using, for its construction, only three types of prefabricated elements, respectively
Du fait que le tablier est, dans tous les cas, constitué entièrement à partir d'éléments préfabriqués qui ne nécessitent aucune adaptation et peuvent être assemblés par simple boulonnage ou rivetage, il est possible de les fabriquer à l'avance économiquement et en toute sécurité dans une usine, et de les transporter, par voie maritime ou terrestre jusqu'au site de construction où ils seront assemblés.Since the deck is, in all cases, made entirely from prefabricated elements which do not require any adaptation and can be assembled by simple bolting or riveting, it is possible to manufacture them in advance economically and in complete safety. in a factory, and transport them, by sea or land to the construction site where they will be assembled.
A cet égard, il est particulièrement avantageux de donner aux éléments de poutre une longueur ne dépassant pas 11,50 mètres, afin de pouvoir les transporter par conteneurs avec les entretoises, les panneaux de platelage et des organes accessoires tels que des éclisses ou autres moyens de liaison ainsi que des éléments de garde-corps.In this regard, it is particularly advantageous to give the beam elements a length not exceeding 11.50 meters, in order to be able to transport them in containers with the spacers, the decking panels and accessory members such as fish plates or other means. connection as well as railing elements.
Par exemple, comme le montrent les
Pour répondre rapidement et économiquement à tous types de demandes, on pourra donc étudier et fabriquer à l'avance plusieurs séries d'éléments préfabriqués de différentes caractéristiques dans lesquelles on choisira les éléments ayant les caractéristiques voulues pour la construction d'un pont déterminé, le nombre nécessaire de ces éléments étant alors livré sur le site.To respond quickly and economically to all types of requests, we can therefore study and manufacture in advance several series of prefabricated elements with different characteristics in which we choose the elements having the desired characteristics for the construction of a given bridge, the necessary number of these elements then being delivered to the site.
Par exemple, on pourra fabriquer à l'avance en usine au moins deux séries d'éléments de poutre constituant des modules ayant au moins deux longueurs différentes à partir desquels, en faisant varier le nombre et les longueurs des modules assemblés, il sera possible de réaliser toute une gamme de longueurs de poutres de support adaptées à différentes portées entre appui.For example, at least two series of beam elements constituting modules having at least two different lengths from which, by varying the number and lengths of assembled modules, it will be possible to realize a whole range of lengths of support beams adapted to different spans between supports.
De plus, pour une même longueur, on pourra réaliser des modules ayant au moins deux hauteurs différentes afin de faire varier leur résistance à la flexion, chaque poutre de support pouvant ainsi être constituée à partir de modules ayant une inertie adaptée à la portée entre appui et à la position du module dans la poutre.In addition, for the same length, modules having at least two different heights can be produced in order to vary their flexural strength, each support beam thus being able to be formed from modules having an inertia adapted to the span between support. and the position of the module in the beam.
Par ailleurs, certains modules doivent être équipés de moyens d'assemblage à leurs deux extrémités pour constituer un module central, ou bien à une seule extrémité, pour constituer un module de rive, ces moyens d'assemblage pouvant être de type mâle ou femelle pour s'emboîter les uns dans les autres à l'assemblage de deux modules consécutifs.Furthermore, some modules must be equipped with assembly means at their two ends to constitute a central module, or else at only one end, to constitute an edge module, these assembly means possibly being of the male or female type for fit into each other when assembling two consecutive modules.
Pour chaque longueur de module, on réalisera donc à l'avance, d'une part, des modules centraux de type 31 (
Avantageusement, on pourra aussi réaliser des modules dépourvus de moyens d'assemblage à leurs extrémités, qui pourront servir à la construction de ponts de faible portée, comportant simplement un platelage supporté par deux ou trois éléments parallèles reposant, à leurs extrémités, sur deux culées.Advantageously, it is also possible to produce modules devoid of assembly means at their ends, which can be used for the construction of short-span bridges, simply comprising a decking supported by two or three parallel elements resting, at their ends, on two abutments. .
Comme indiqué plus haut, ces modules préfabriqués auront une longueur maximale, par exemple de 11,40 mètres, permettant un transport par conteneurs. Cependant, il sera intéressant de réaliser également des modules plus courts afin de pouvoir régler la longueur globale des poutres réalisées par assemblage de plusieurs modules consécutifs.As indicated above, these prefabricated modules will have a maximum length, for example 11.40 meters, allowing transport in containers. However, it will be advantageous to also produce shorter modules in order to be able to adjust the overall length of the beams produced by assembling several consecutive modules.
En pratique, il sera avantageux de réaliser à l'avance plusieurs séries des modules ayant, respectivement, deux ou trois longueurs différentes, par exemple 5,70 m, 8,55 m et 11,40 m, qui diffèrent entre elles de 2,85 m, de tels modules pouvant être associés de différentes façons afin de construire des ponts de longueurs variées.In practice, it will be advantageous to produce in advance several series of modules having, respectively, two or three different lengths, for example 5.70 m, 8.55 m and 11.40 m, which differ from each other by 2, 85 m, such modules being able to be associated in different ways in order to build bridges of various lengths.
Par exemple, à partir de deux séries de modules centraux 31 ayant, respectivement, des longueurs de 8,55 m (A1) et 11,40 m (A2) et de trois séries de modules de rive 32 ayant, respectivement, des longueurs de 5,70 m (B1), 8,55 m (B2) et 11,40 m (B3), il sera possible, en associant ces modules de différentes façons, de couvrir, avec un pas de 2,85 m, toute une gamme de portées allant de 11,40 m à 45,60 m,de la façon suivante:
- un élément de type A2 pour une portée de 11,40 m.
- deux éléments de rive B1 + B2 pour une portée de 14,25 m.
- deux éléments de rive B1 + B3 pour une portée de 17,10 m.
- deux éléments de rive B2 + B3 pour une portée de 19,95 m.
- deux éléments de rive B3 + B3 pour une portée de 22,80 m.
- un élément central A2 et deux éléments de rive B2 + B2 pour une portée de 25,65 m.
- un élément central A2 et deux éléments de rive B1 + B3 pour une portée de 28,50 m.
- un élément central A2 et deux éléments de rive B2 + B3 pour une portée de 31,35 m.
- un élément central A2 et deux éléments de rive B3 + B3 pour une portée de 34,20 m.
- deux éléments centraux A2 + A2 et deux éléments de rive B1 + B2 pour une portée de 37,05 m.
- deux éléments centraux A2 + A2 et deux éléments de rive B2 + B2 pour une portée de 39,90 m.
- deux éléments centraux A2 + A2 et deux éléments de rive B2 + B3 pour une portée de 42,75 m.
- deux éléments centraux A2 + A2 et deux éléments de rive B3 + B3 pour une portée de 45,60 m.
- an A2 type element for a span of 11.40 m.
- two edge elements B1 + B2 for a span of 14.25 m.
- two edge elements B1 + B3 for a span of 17.10 m.
- two edge elements B2 + B3 for a span of 19.95 m.
- two edge elements B3 + B3 for a span of 22.80 m.
- a central element A2 and two edge elements B2 + B2 for a span of 25.65 m.
- a central element A2 and two edge elements B1 + B3 for a span of 28.50 m.
- a central element A2 and two edge elements B2 + B3 for a span of 31.35 m.
- a central element A2 and two edge elements B3 + B3 for a span of 34.20 m.
- two central elements A2 + A2 and two edge elements B1 + B2 for a span of 37.05 m.
- two central elements A2 + A2 and two edge elements B2 + B2 for a span of 39.90 m.
- two central elements A2 + A2 and two edge elements B2 + B3 for a span of 42.75 m.
- two central elements A2 + A2 and two edge elements B3 + B3 for a span of 45.60 m.
Il est à noter que, lorsque les panneaux de platelage sont disposés longitudinalement de la façon représentée sur la
Bien entendu, la résistance à la flexion des poutres ainsi réalisées par assemblage d'éléments préfabriqués doit être adaptée à la portée entre appuis et à la charge supportée. Comme indiqué plus haut, selon l'une des caractéristiques de l'invention, cette résistance peut être améliorée, de la façon représentée sur les
Par exemple, une travée d'un pont à double voie pourra être portée par trois poutres de hauteur 850 mm pour une portée de 11,40 m, par deux poutres latérales de 850 mm et une poutre centrale de 1350 mm pour une portée de 14,50 à 17,10 m et par une poutre centrale de 1950 mm pour une portée de 19,50 à 22,80 m. Pour une portée de 25,65 à 34,20 m, une travée à double voie reposera sur deux poutres latérales de 1350 mm et une poutre centrale double formée de deux éléments accolés de 1950 mm et, pour une portée de 37,05 à 45,60 m, sur deux poutres latérales de 1950 mm et une poutre centrale triple constituée de trois éléments accolés de 1950 mm.For example, a span of a double-track bridge could be carried by three beams 850 mm high for a span of 11.40 m, by two side beams of 850 mm and a central beam of 1350 mm for a span of 14 , 50 to 17.10 m and by a central beam of 1950 mm for a span of 19.50 to 22.80 m. For a span of 25.65 to 34.20 m, a double track span will rest on two lateral beams of 1350 mm and a double central beam formed of two joined elements of 1950 mm and, for a span of 37.05 to 45 , 60 m, on two side beams of 1950 mm and a triple central beam made up of three joined elements of 1950 mm.

- Les modèles P1, de hauteur 850 mm et P2, de hauteur 1950 mm constituent, respectivement, les poutres latérales et la poutre centrale d'une travée à double voie ayant une portée de 22,80 m.
- Le modèle P3, comprenant un module
central A2 de 11,40 m et deux modules de rive B2 et B3, de hauteur 1350 mm, peut constituer les poutres latérales d'une travée ayant une portée de 31,35 m. - Le modèle P4, comprenant deux modules de type A2 et deux modules de type B1 et B3, respectivement de 5,70 m
et 8,55 m, ayant une hauteur de 1950 mm, peut constituer les poutres latérales d'une travée de portée 37,05 m.
- The P1 models, 850 mm high and P2, 1950 mm high, respectively constitute the side beams and the central beam of a double-track span with a span of 22.80 m.
- The P3 model, comprising a central module A2 of 11.40 m and two edge modules B2 and B3, 1350 mm high, can constitute the side beams of a span with a span of 31.35 m.
- The P4 model, comprising two modules of type A2 and two modules of type B1 and B3, respectively 5.70 m and 8.55 m, having a height of 1950 mm, can constitute the side beams of a span 37 , 05 m.
L'invention permet donc, à partir de seulement trois types d'éléments préfabriqués, respectivement des éléments de poutre, des entretoises et des panneaux de platelage, de construire rapidement et économiquement des ponts de portée faible ou moyenne, pouvant aller d'une dizaine à une cinquantaine de mètres et dont la largeur peut varier.The invention therefore makes it possible, from only three types of prefabricated elements, respectively beam elements, spacers and decking panels, to build quickly and economically low or medium span bridges, which can range from ten about fifty meters and whose width may vary.
Il est possible, en effet, connaissant la portée à réaliser et les charges à supporter, de choisir dans le stock existant ou de fabriquer immédiatement en usine tous les éléments nécessaires à la construction et de les transporter en conteneurs, par voie maritime ou terrestre, jusqu'au site de construction.In fact, knowing the scope to be achieved and the loads to be supported, it is possible to choose from the existing stock or immediately manufacture in the factory all the elements necessary for construction and transport them in containers, by sea or land, to the construction site.
Après avoir réalisé sur la berge, par assemblage des éléments, deux poutres de support ayant la portée souhaitée, on met en place les entretoises de liaison et l'on soulève l'ensemble pour le poser sur les appuis. On peut alors poser les éléments de platelage qui sont fixés par des boulons ou rivets, de la façon indiquée plus haut.After having produced on the bank, by assembling the elements, two support beams having the desired range, the connecting struts are put in place and the assembly is lifted to place it on the supports. We can then install the decking elements which are fixed by bolts or rivets, as indicated above.
Si l'on ne dispose pas des moyens de levage nécessaires, la travée réalisée peut être lancée par poussage à partir de la berge.If the necessary lifting means are not available, the span produced can be launched by pushing from the bank.
A cet effet, comme le montrent les
Cependant, l'invention ne se limite évidemment pas aux détails des modes de réalisation qui viennent d'être décrits à titre de simple exemple et couvre, au contraire, toutes les variantes utilisant des moyens équivalents et restant dans le même cadre de protection.However, the invention is obviously not limited to the details of the embodiments which have just been described by way of simple example and, on the contrary, covers all the variants using equivalent means and remaining within the same protection framework.
Par exemple, les panneaux de platelage disposés entre les éléments de deux poutres voisines pourraient servir de coffrage perdu pour la coulée, en une ou plusieurs parties, d'une dalle en béton constituant la plateforme du pont.For example, the decking panels arranged between the elements of two neighboring beams could serve as permanent formwork for the casting, in one or more parts, of a concrete slab constituting the platform of the bridge.
D'autre part, il serait possible d'associer autrement les modules de différentes longueurs, afin de modifier les longueurs globales des poutres de support ainsi réalisées. De plus, les dimensions des modules préfabriqués indiquées plus haut sont adaptées aux dimensions normalisées des conteneurs mais d'autres dimensions pourraient être choisies afin de modifier la gamme de portées réalisables.On the other hand, it would be possible to associate the modules of different lengths in another way, in order to modify the overall lengths of the support beams thus produced. In addition, the dimensions of the prefabricated modules indicated above are adapted to the standard dimensions of the containers but other dimensions could be chosen in order to modify the range of achievable spans.
De même, il est particulièrement avantageux de réaliser une liaison articulée entre deux éléments de poutre par emboîtement d'un tenon dans une chape mais d'autres moyens d'assemblage amovible pourraient être utilisés.Likewise, it is particularly advantageous to produce an articulated connection between two beam elements by fitting a tenon into a yoke but other removable assembly means could be used.
Par ailleurs, comme on l'a indiqué, en réalisant à l'avance deux séries d'entretoises et deux séries d'éléments de panneau de platelage ayant des dimensions différentes, il sera possible de construire, à la demande, des ponts à simple ou double voie. Les dimensions indiquées plus haut correspondent à une longueur de 11,40 m des éléments de poutre, adaptée à un transport par conteneur mais d'autres dimensions seraient possibles.Moreover, as indicated, by making in advance two series of spacers and two series of decking panel elements having different dimensions, it will be possible to build, on demand, single bridges. or double track. The dimensions indicated above correspond to a length of 11.40 m of the beam elements, suitable for transport by container but other dimensions would be possible.
En outre, on a décrit la réalisation de ponts à simple ou double voie reposant sur deux ou trois poutres longitudinales mais il serait évidemment possible d'augmenter la largeur du tablier en utilisant un plus grand nombre de poutres.In addition, the production of single or double track bridges resting on two or three longitudinal beams has been described, but it would obviously be possible to increase the width of the deck by using a larger number of beams.
