Structural assessment of a RC Bridge over Sororó river along the Carajás railway

The Carajás railway is operated by Vale SA and is used to transport the Brazilian production of iron ore mine located in the state of Pará until Itaqui harbor in Maranhão state. With 892 km in length, the railway will be doubled due to the prospect of increased production, which requires verificatio...

A ferrovia Carajás é operada pela Vale SA e é utilizada para transportar a produção brasileira de minério de ferro da mina localizada no estado do Pará até o porto de Itaqui no estado do Maranhão. Com 892 km de comprimento, a ferrovia será duplicada devido à perspectiva de aumento da produção, o que requer a verificação das estruturas de suas pontes visando garantir a segurança sob carregamento até 23% maior que o atual. A ponte ferroviária em concreto armado apresenta cinco vãos hiperestáticos com 25 m de comprimento cada e foi construída sobre o rio Sororó, na região sudeste do Estado do Pará. Para melhor avaliar seu desempenho estrutural sob carregamentos atuais, diversos elementos estruturais foram monitorados com extensômetros elétricos de resistência e o concreto foi caracterizado através de ensaios não destrutivos e destrutivos na estrutura. Estas informações foram empregadas em um modelo computacional para auxiliar na estimativa do comportamento estrutural futuro. A metodologia mostrou-se satisfatória, assim como o desempenho estimado da estrutura para os futuros carregamentos, atendendo às recomendações das normas técnicas brasileiras. 2017-04-12T12:27:47Z 2017-04-12T12:27:47Z 2015-04 Artigo de Periódico MATOS, José Cristino Lima de et al.
