“…Comparing the changes in the structural parameters of a bridge during vehicle movement reveals the impact of overloaded vehicles on bridge structures, which include modal parameters [10,11], strain [12,13], deflection [14], and stiffness [15]. Li et al [16] used the strain data from a structural health monitoring system installed on a bridge and the wavelet transform to identify the abnormal signals caused by overloaded vehicles crossing the bridge.…”

Segmentally assembled bridges are increasingly finding engineering applications in recent years due to their unique advantages, especially as urban viaducts. Vehicle loads are one of the most important variable loads acting on bridge structures. Accordingly, the influence of overloaded vehicles on existing assembled bridge structures is an urgent concern at present. This paper establishes the finite element model of the segmentally assembled bridge based on ABAQUS software and analyzes the influence of vehicle overload on an assembled girder bridge structure. First, a finite element model corresponding to the target bridge is established based on ABAQUS software, and the load is controlled to simulate vehicle movement in each area of the traveling zone at different times. Second, the key cross-sections of segmental girder bridges are monitored in real time based on the force characteristics of continuous girder bridges, and they are compared with the simulation results. Finally, a material damage ontology model is introduced, and the structural damage caused by different overloading rates is compared and analyzed. Results show that the finite element modeling method is accurate by comparing with on-site measured data, and it is suitable for the numerical simulation of segmental girder bridges; Dynamic sensors installed at 1/4L, 1/2L, and 3/4L of the segmental girder main beams could be used to identify the dynamic response of segmental girder bridges; The bottom plate of the segmental girder bridge is mostly damaged at the position where the length of the precast beam section changes and the midspan position. With the increase in load, damage in the direction of the bridge develops faster than that in the direction of the transverse bridge. The findings of this study can guide maintenance departments in the management and maintenance of bridges and vehicles.
