Their construction involves multiple processes and factors. Construction monitoring can ensure that such a bridge remains in its intended stress and linear states during and after construction. This helps to minimize deviations from the design state at every stage of construction. Using the segmental assembly construction technique, this study conducted construction monitoring of the alignment and force at each stage of the reconstruction of bridges using MIDAS Civil software. The construction monitoring analysis indicated that the arch rib and lattice beam were correctly placed, thereby meeting the specified requirements for arch rib closure. Displacement errors between the measured and theoretical values at each stage of construction fell within an allowable range, resulting in overall smooth bridge alignment. The measured stress in the main arch and the lattice beam generally corresponded to the theoretical stress derived from the control section stress of the entire bridge. The deviation between the cable force of the suspender and the tie rod and theoretical value fell within 10%, indicating good stress reserve. The symmetrical monitoring points in the analyzed rigid-frame tied steel box arch bridges exhibited symmetrical displacement, stress, and cable force results under various working conditions. This observation further confirms the effectiveness of construction monitoring using the segmental assembly technique.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/sym15071437","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,18]],"date-time":"2023-07-18T01:31:32Z","timestamp":1689643892000},"page":"1437","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Construction-Monitoring Analysis of a Symmetrical Rigid Frame Tied Steel Box Arch Bridge in Southwest China Based on Segmental Assembly Technique"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Yuanchong","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Guangxi Beibu Gulf Investment Group Co., Ltd., Nanning 530029, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Longlin","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bridge Engineering Research Institute, Guangxi Transportation Science and Technology Group Co., Ltd., Nanning 530007, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yu","family":"Nong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bridge Engineering Research Institute, Guangxi Transportation Science and Technology Group Co., Ltd., Nanning 530007, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0442-7477","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Wensheng","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Transportation, Jilin University, Changchun 130025, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Huang, Q., Wu, X.G., Zhang, Y.F., and Ma, M.
