Abstract

In a previous study, the impact factor response spectrum and corresponding method for evaluating the load carrying capacity of bridges was suggested to improve the existing evaluation method. To verify the applicability of the suggested method, which is based on the frequency of bridges, the dynamic characteristic test for an actual single span simply-supported bridge was conducted. Through a field test under ambient traffic conditions, the dynamic response of the bridge was obtained using wireless accelometers and its fundamental frequency was identified. The peak impact factor was determined from the identified frequency and the impact factor response spectrum. The load carrying performance variation of the bridge was estimated considering the performance reduction factor, which was calculated using the current and previous natural frequency and impact factor. From the result, the load carrying capacity of the bridge was decreased, but the capacity was still enough because its value is greater than the design live load. Through the overall procedures and technical details presented in this paper, the suggested evaluation method can be applied to actual bridges with the acceleration data measured under ambient traffic conditions and the impact factor response spectrum.

이전 연구에서 기존의 재하실험을 통한 교량의 공용 중 내하력 평가방법을 개선하기 위하여 충격계수 응답스펙트럼과 그에 따른 내하성능 변화 추정 방법이 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 방법의 적용성을 검증하기 위하여 공용 중인 단순지지 단경간 교량에 대한 현장 동적특성 평가 실험을 수행하였다. 실험을 통해 상시 교통하중 상태에서 무선 가속도계를 이용하여 교량의 고유진동수 도출이 가능한 수준의 동특성 응답을 획득할 수 있었다. 대상 교량의 가속도 데이터로부터 동적거동은 1차 모드에 지배되며 준공 당시에 비해 공용 기간의 증가로 인해 고유진동수가 감소한 것으로 나타났다. 충격계수 응답스펙트럼으로부터 대상 교량의 발생 가능한 최대 충격계수를 추정하였다. 도출된 이전 및 현재의 고유진동수와 충격계수를 바탕으로 성능감소계수를 적용한 내하력 평가방법을 이용하여 성능변화를 추정하였다. 이전에 비해 공용내하력이 감소하였으나 설계 활하중을 상회하여 내하성능에는 문제가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 상시 교통하중 하에서의 가속도 계측 데이터와 충격계수 응답스펙트럼을 이용하는 제안된 내하성능 변화 추정 방법은 실제 교량에 적용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
