Abstract
Increase of traffic volume in recent years results in deterioration of the bridge slab, which is directly subjected ot vehicle loads. Where extensive repair is necessary, replacement or enhancement of load carrying capacity using full depth precast concrete deck is often the most practical solution. Precast deck system has transverse joints between adjacent precast decks. Vertical shear forces occur when a vehicle wheel load is carried by precast decks and the joints are used to transfer the load to an adjacent deck. Effective load transfer between precast decks is critical for integral behavior. Finite element analysis and tests were run on the proposed femal-to-female type joint. 18 joint specimens were tested to investigate the effects of angle. D/H, and confining stress under static load. Results indicate joint with angle of 60$^{\circ}$ and D/H of 1/4 shows the improved load carrying capacity on crack. It is effective in protecting the cracking of joints to keep the joint in compression using confining stress.
본 연구는 수직전단하중에 대한 프리캐스트 바닥판간 이음부거동을 규명하고 수직전단력 전달에 유리한 이음부 구조도출을 위해 female-female 형식의 이음부를 제안하고, 실험 및 유한요소해석을 수행한 것이다. 경사각, 이음부깊이/높이 및 구속응력을 변수로 총 18개의 실험체에 대한 실험 및 유한요소해석결과 ,이음부의균열저항성 개선을 위해서는 경사각이 60。, D/H가 1/4일 경우가 유리하며 측방향구속으로 이음부를 압축상태로 유지하는 것이 이음부 균열방지에 효과적임을 알았다.
