In the construction process of large-scale bridges, there are uncertainties and time-varying factors in the environment and construction loads. It is difficult to make accurate estimates of the theoretical calculation models of construction control in advance. In view of this situation, Bayesian dynamic updating method is introduced to re-estimate the predicted results of the theoretical model. When applying this method, first, the finite element calculation model is determined based on the response surface method, and its calculation results are used as prior information. Then, combined with the actual detection data during the construction process, the Bayesian update formula is derived based on the conjugate prior distribution to correct the theoretical prediction results of bridge construction monitoring. Finally, the actual stress detection data of the control section of high-pier and large-span continuous rigid frame bridges during the construction process illustrate the application process of Bayesian updating in improving the theoretical prediction model. Results indicate that the internal force of the bridge control section obtained by re-evaluating by Bayesian theory not only incorporates the priori information models but also actual monitors sample information during the construction process. The predicted results reflect the true deformation and stress state of the bridge during the bridge construction process and improve the precision of construction monitoring.

In order to improve the force performance of traditional anti-buckling energy dissipation bracing with excessive non-recoverable deformation caused by strong seismic action, this paper presents a prestress-braced frame structure system with shape memory alloy (SMA) and investigates its deformation characteristics under a horizontal load. Firstly, this paper establishes a theoretical analysis model by analyzing the geometric relationship between the deformation of SMA cables and inter-story displacement based on the internal force balance equation. The model is used to solve the anti-lateral displacement stiffness of the SMA cable-supported frame structure and to derive a reasonable formula for calculating the initial prestress and cross-sectional area of SMA cables. Then, the mechanical behavior of the SMA cable-supported frame structure system under an equivalent horizontal load is simulated using ABAQUS software and compared with the calculated results of conventional tie-supported and non-dissipative-supported frame structures. The results show that the force performance of the frame structure system determined by the SMA cable design method proposed in this paper is significantly improved under the horizontal load. Furthermore, it can ensure a certain ductility requirement of the frame structure system, which verifies the effectiveness of the design method of the SMA cable frame structure system proposed in this paper.

Based on the results of model test and the definition of excavation loose zone, the scope of excavation loose zone of soft and hard rock interbedded slope is determined, and a simplified mechanical model is established. Based on the Mohr-Coulomb criterion, the calculation formula of the stability coefficient is obtained. When the stability coefficient is equal to the critical value 1, the range of the potential failure area of the slope is discussed, and the stability evaluation and instability mode of the slope are studied. The model test and simplified analysis of the loose zone show that the dangerous sliding surface of the slope with interbedded soft and hard rock occurs in the deep soft rock stratum. When the excavation happened to the deep soft stratum, a large range of disturbances will occur, cracks will be generated, and the channel of water supply will be provided to reduce the stability coefficient of the loose zone, leading to the instability of the slope.
