Abstract
The dynamic strain-time(${\varepsilon}$-t) curves of the fatal members in three existing steel railway bridges was measured during the selected trains was passing, and was regulated statistically. By the results of these the equivalent fatigue damages of the selected members was calculated in comparison with the allowable stresses, and was examined. From these the base available in evaluating the stability and the lifeproof of the steel railway bridge was obtained. In addition to this, the following several properties which could be used availably in designing the steel railway bridges. It was conformed that the fatigue damages was different each other even in the same members, if the unit weight of the trains was same but the weights and the dispositions of the wheels of the trains was different each other. It was indicated that the fatigue damages was larger in the members which had the defects in components of the materials, the flaws being made during producing and constructing, and the corrosions, etc. It was considered that more a vailable data could be obtained, if the same studies were continued under the spans and the types of the bridges being changed continuously.
3개의 기존(旣存) 강철도교량(鋼鐵道橋梁)의 주요부재(主要部材)에 대해 열차(列車) 통과시(通過時)의 동적(動的)인 변형율(變形率)-시간(時間)(${\varepsilon}$-t)곡선을 측정(測定) 통계정리(統計整理)하여 허용응력(許容應力)을 기준으로 한 등가피로피해(等價疲勞被害)를 산출(算出) 검토(檢討)하였다. 이로부터 강철도교량(鋼鐵道橋梁)의 안전도(安全度) 및 내용연한(耐用年限)을 추정(推定)할 수 있는 중요한 토대가 마련되었다. 아울러, 강철도교량(鋼鐵道橋梁)을 설계함에 있어서 참조할 수 있는 다음과 같은 몇가지 중요한 특성을 밝힐 수 있었다. 같은 중량(重量)의 열차(列車)라도 차축(車軸)의 중량(重量) 및 차량(車輛)의 배축(配軸)의 차이 등에 따라 피로피해(疲勞被害)가 달라짐을 확인하였다. 부재(部材)의 재료성분(材料成分)이나 제작(製作) 및 시공(施工) 중의 결함(缺陷), 혹은 부식(腐蝕)이나 마모 등이 있는 부분에서는 피로피해(疲勞被害)가 큰 것을 알았다. 지간(支間) 및 교량형식(橋梁形式)을 여러 가지로 바꾸면서 계속해서 이와 같은 연구가 이루어진다면 더욱 유익한 자료가 얻어질 수 있으리라 사료된다.
