Abstract

In this paper, a connection details for precast arch structures was proposed. Experiments were performed to evaluate structural performance of the loop connection details satisfying current design requirements and of alternative details for improvement of constructability. Precast arch specimens considering the current design requirements showed higher structural capacity than a cast-in-place arch specimen. Crack width at the connection of arch crown showed smaller value than 0.2 mm due to increased compression force by the applied vertical load. Strengthening by wire-mesh at notch area of the connection improved initial crack control capability. Connection detail with couplers and headed bars showed similar capacity to the reference specimen. The alternative details to improve constructability of reinforcements can be used without decreasing structural performance. Specimens with smaller internal diameter of mandrel and shorter loop splicing than the current design codes showed worse behavior in terms of crack width control.

이 논문에서는 프리캐스트로 제작된 아치 구조의 연결을 위한 루프 이음 상세를 제안하였다. 설계기준에서 제시하고 있는 루프 이음 상세의 요구사항을 만족하는 경우와 시공성을 개선하기 위한 상세 대안들에 대한 평가를 위한 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 설계 요구사항을 만족하는 경우에는 프리캐스트 아치 실험체가 현장타설 일체형 부재에 비해서 높은 내하력을 나타내었다. 아치구조의 크라운 부위에서의 균열은 초기 균열 발생 이후 증가되는 압축력 효과로 인해서 0.2 mm를 초과하지 않는 균열폭이 발생하였다. 초기 균열 제어에 노치부의 와이어메쉬 보강이 효과를 보였고 철근 커플러와 확대머리철근을 이용한 연결부 상세도 기준 부재 이상의 내하력을 나타내었다. 시공성 개선 상세의 경우 구조적 거동에 차이를 보이지 않아서 작업자의 배근 시공성을 개선할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 루프철근의 내면 반지름과 겹침 이음 길이는 현재의 설계기준의 요구사항을 만족시키지 않으면 균열폭 제어 측면에서 좋지 않은 결과를 나타내었다.
