摘要

The 950 ft main span of the Ironton Russell Cable-Stayed Bridge has a deck width of just less than60 ft with 7 ft deep steel edge girders. This represents the longest span single tower cable-stayed bridge withsteel edge girders in North America. The Ironton Russell Bridge, currently in final design, will cross the Ohio Riverbetween Ironton, Ohio and Russell, Kentucky. The actual superstructure height (including barriers) isapproximately 12 ft and that indicates a relatively low ratio of the deck width to depth of 5.0. Utilizing frequenciesobtained from a finite element model of the bridge, wind tunnel testing was done to evaluate effects of bothflutter (torsional critical stability) and vortex shedding (vertical comfort stability). The need to balance torsionalstiffness (affected by the edge girder depth or stiffness) with detrimental effects of a bluff structure presented aninteresting challenge. A number of aerodynamic solutions were investigated in order to reduce vortex sheddingwhile also maintaining a safe level of flutter stability. After obtaining an aerodynamic solution utilizing large windfairings on the edge girder, an evaluation was conducted considering both aesthetics and the additional cost ofsuch fairings. A non-aerodynamic solution was proposed which utilized Tuned Massed Dampers (TMD) to controleffects of vortex shedding. This proved to be both a cost effective and an aesthetically reasonable solution to theissue. The Ironton Russell Bridge will be the first traffic cable-stayed structure in North America to use TMDs tomitigate bridge deck wind stability issues.
