Abstract :
The space integrated element method was introduced to solve the problem about the space of bridge. As the examples, analysis the bridge space; solve the damaged arch bridge; replace cable stayed bridge; small radius of the curved girder bridges. First, it can divide the spatial structure into different parts. Then it use all sorts of suitable space to simulate the space characteristics of these components, Last it can calculate and analyze the model that was built by all the parts mentioned above.
