Special Considerations for Bailey Girder Installation

Non-elastic deformation of pins: Due to the pin-connected design of Bailey bridges, significant non-elastic deformation naturally occurs and must be fully accounted for when calculating structural deformation.

Uneven settlement: Bailey bridges are highly sensitive to uneven foundation settlement, and the relative settlement difference between supports should be controlled within L/600.

Erecting a Bailey steel bridge is a systematic project, where every step is critical and must be strictly carried out in accordance with specifications and plans.
