PurposeAiming at the problems of high cost, high risk and traffic impact of in situ load testing of Bridges after fire, this paper proposes a fire bridge structural damage identification method based on a fire dynamics simulator (FDS)-Kriging model modification and a unit modal strain energy damage index, so as to effectively assess the damage of bridge structures after fire. Determine whether it can continue to be used and whether it affects driving safety.Design/methodology/approachPropose a fire bridge structural damage identification method to establish the FDS-Kriging model correction.FindingsThe finite element model of the fire bridge modified using FDS-Kriging approach can reflect the actual situation of the bridge structure more accurately, and the damage location and degree identified by the modal strain energy method are consistent with the actual bridge. Therefore, the effectiveness of the proposed method has been verified, and a new strategy for fire bridge damage identification has been provided. Research demonstrates that the finite element model of the fire-damaged bridge, modified using the FDS-Kriging method, can more accurately reflect the actual structural state. Moreover, the damage location and severity identified via the modal strain energy method align well with the actual bridge conditions. Thus, the effectiveness and engineering applicability of the proposed method are validated, offering a comprehensive new strategy and technical support for the integrated performance evaluation, damage identification and reliability analysis of fire-damaged bridges.Originality/valueBy determining the finite element correction interval and combining it with the Kriging model, the method realizes the fine correction of the finite element model of the fire bridge. Structural damage identification is carried out by using the unit modal strain energy damage index. This verifies the effectiveness and engineering applicability of the proposed method, which offers a novel approach and technical support for the comprehensive performance evaluation, damage identification and reliability analysis of fire-damaged bridges.
