Abstract
In this study, the flexural behavior of the RC Arch Deck under static loading was evaluated. Flexural test was carried out using an actual size RC Arch Deck with a length of 2.5 m, a center thickness of 100 mm and an end thickness of 160 mm. The test results showed that it's ultimate load was 1.74 times higher than the ultimate design load. On the other hand, it showed that the flexural behavior has different behaviors (i.e. different stiffness). This type of structural behavior indicates that it has inter-dependency between the deck and the supporting girder. Therefore, it is necessary to confirm the precise behavior by the static loading test of the RC Arch Deck, excluding the girder effect in the future study. The overall results showed that RC Arch Deck has excellent structural performance due to the structural advantages of the arch shape. In the future, the RC Arch Deck can be applied as a long span slab.
