Abstract

The main purpose of this research is to propose advanced bridge-decks surfacing from the examples of In-Cheon bridge with Guss asphalt and Gyul-Hyeon bridge with stone matrix asphalt(SMA) concrete. The research results presented that the Guss asphalt concrete pavement was weak when rutting was developed due to the low resistance at high temperatures. The SMA concrete pavement demonstrated good resistance to plastic deformations and was easy to maintain pavement conditions. The results mentioned above are generalized in developed counties where surfacing pavement techniques for steel bridge-decks are advanced. However, due to the lack of construction experiences in Korea, appropriate construction guidelines and organized research for the steel bridge deck pavements are necessary for more advanced steel bridge decks surfacing.

본 연구의 주 목적은 교면포장 공법 중에서 인천대교에 사용된 구스 아스팔트와 귤현 대교에 사용된 SMA의 적용 사례를 통하여 발전된 교면포장 공법을 제시하는데 있다. 두 공법의 시공사례를 비교 분석한 결과, 구스 아스팔트는 고온에서의 유동저항성이 작아 소성변형에 취약하며, 이에 반하여 SMA포장은 유지관리에 용이하고 소성변형 등에 유리하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 강상판 교면포장 공법이 발달된 선진국에서는 보편화되어서, 그에 따른 국내에서의 해결방안을 제시하였다. 그러나, 국내의 경우 다양한 시공 실적이 미흡한 실정이어서 향후 적절한 시공관리와 체계적인 연구를 통하여 보다 발전된 교면 포장공법이 제시되어져야 할 것으로 사료된다.
