HTB (hybrid truss bridge) steel truss webs instead of concrete webs in prestressed box girder bridges has been widely used in, because of its structural benefit such as relatively less self-weight and good aesthetics due to open web structure. Since the core technology of this bridge is the connection system between concrete slabs and steel truss members, several connection systems were proposed and experimentally evaluated. Also, the selected joint system was applied to the real bride design and construction. The researches were performed on the connection system, since it can affect the global behavior of this bridge such as flexural and fatigue behaviors as well as the local behavior around the connection region. The evaluation study showned that HTB applied to a curved bridge or a eccentric loading bridge, characteristic has a weak torsional capacity compared to an ordinary PSC box girder bridges due to the open structure of HTB. In this study, three box shaped hybrid truss specimens were made and the torsional test and evaluation for them were performed in order to find out the torsional behavior of HTB according to the connection system.

Hybrid Truss Bridge (HTB) uses steel truss webs instead of concrete webs in prestressed box girder bridges, which is becoming popular due to its structural benefits such as relatively light self-weight and good aesthetics appearance. Since the core technology of this bridge is the connection system between concrete slabs and steel truss members, several connection systems were proposed and experimentally evaluated. Also, the selected joint system was applied to the real bride design and construction. The research was performed on the connection system, since it can affect the global behavior of this bridge such as flexural and fatigue behaviors as well as the local behavior around the connection region. The evaluation study showed that HTB applied to a curved bridge or an eccentrically loaded bridge had a weak torsional capacity compared to an ordinary PSC box girder bridge due to the open cross-sectional characteristic of HTB. Therefore, three types of girders with different joint system between truss web member and concrete slab were tested for their torsional capacity. In this study, the three different types of HTB girders under torsional loading were simulated using FEM analysis to investigate the torsional behavior of HTB girders more in detail. The results are discussed in detail in the paper.

To replace a steel box bridge for constructions of medium span bridges in Korea, the Hybrid Truss Bridge (HTB) is being considered as an alternative bridge type. The core technology of HTB is the connection joint that links the concrete slabs and steel truss pipes. Various construction companies in Japan have developed unique connection systems and applied to the real bridge constructions after verifying their performances through the experimental evaluation. In this study, the fatigue test of a hybrid truss girder has been performed in order to verify the newly proposed hinge type connection joint`s static and fatigue capacities. Through this fatigue test results, it is founded that the structural detail to improve the fatigue capacity should be developed. The hinge connection system with circular ribs has been proposed by means of structural finite element analyses. And then the fatigue test for this connection joint has been performed and it is proved that this connection joint has enough fatigue capacity. Finally, it is expected that the hinge connection system with circular ribs developed by in this study can be easily applied to the real bridge.

해양플랜트 구조물은 대양에서 파력을 비롯한 바람 등과 같이 자연에 의해 발생하는 다양한 외력을 구조물 사용기간 동안 지속적으로 랜덤하게 받게 되므로 이로 인한 피로현상이 발생하게 된다. 특히 용접부로 이루어진 격점부는 복잡한 기하형상의 영향으로 피로에 대해 취약구조가 되므로 피로강도향상은 해양플랜트 구조의 안전성에 중요한 요인이 된다. 본 연구에서는 격점부에 대한 구조상세에 관련한 설계기준 및 평가방법을 조사하였으며, 고정식 Jacket 구조물을 대상으로 프레임요소를 사용하여 구조해석을 실시하여 공용하중에 대한 구조거동을 분석하였다. 또한 격점부의 강도평가방법 및 연결부 피로강도를 개선하기 위하여 프레임요소의 구조해석을 토대로 복잡한 기하형상을 가진 KT형 관이음부(Tubular Joints)에 대해 상세해석을 실시하였다.

The divergence connection between steel circular tubes is widely used in such structures as factory facilities, steel circular hollow section truss, and off-shore tower. Steel circular hollow section (SCHS) have close section, and it makes their per-unit production expense higher than open sectioned products like L-shape, H-shape steels, but the sectional resistance of SCHS against vertical compression and torsion is very high. Despite the structural merits of SCHS, however, many engineers dislike to use them in their design because of uncertainty regarding the stress distribution and deformation behavior at their connections. Therefore, this thesis dealt with X-type connections, the most common forms of connection, and studied their load-deformation relationship. It observed how to show the load-deformation relationship at steel circular tube connections according to the diameter-thickness ratio (D/T) of the chord and diameter of branch-diameter of chord ratio (d/D) and suggested prediction yield load using by ring analysis method.

자연하천에서의 흐름특성을 해석하기 위해 Boundary - fitted(BF) coordinate system을 응용하여 유한차분법에 의한 2차원모델을 개발하였다. BF coordinates는 경계면의 형상에 관계없이 적용할 수 있으며 모든 계산은 기본식의 좌표변환을 통해 직각좌표계에서 행해지므로 경계조건의 입력에 용이하다. Physical domain(X - Y 좌표계)에서 하천의 형상을 입력하면 Grid generation에 의해 모든 계산은 Computational domain($\varepsilon$ - n 좌표계)에서 행해진다. Computational domain에서의 유한차분법은 half - time step으로 ADI 방법을 이용했고, 한 방향의 유속과 수위를 Double sweep으로 풀었다. 유속, 수위 및 하상의 격점망은 Staggered grid system을 사용했으며 geometric elements는 각 격점별로 계산하였다. 본 모델을 이용하므로써 불규칙한 수로나 하천의 흐름상태를 해석할 수 있으므로 흐름의 종단, 횡단방향의 유속분포, Superelevation을 구할 수 있고 하천의 계획, 관리, 제방의 호안이나 구조물의 설치등으로 일어나는 수리학적 영향등을 예측할 수 있다.

Steel box girder bridges are being commonly designed for medium-span bridges of span length. Composite truss bridges with steel diagonals instead of concrete webs can be an excellent design alternative, because it can reduce the dead weight of superstructures. One of the key issues in the design of composite truss bridges is the joint structureconnecting the diagonal steel members with the upper and lower concrete slabs. Because the connection has to carry concentrated combined loads and the design provisions for the joint are not clear, it is necessary to investigate the load transfer mechanism and the design methods for each limit state. There are various connection details according to the types of diagonal members. In this paper, the joint structure with group stud connectors welded on a gusset plate is used. Push-out tests for the group stud connectors of were performed. The test results showed that the current design codes on the ultimate strength ofthe stud connection can be used when the required minimum spacing of stud connectors is satisfied. Flexure-shear tests were conducted to verify the applicability of the design provisions for combined load effects to the strength of joint structures. To increase the pullout strength of the connection, bent studs were proposed and utilized for the edge studs in the group arrangement of the joint. The results showed that the details of the joint structure were enhanced. Thereafter, design guidelines were proposed.

A digital twin is a technology that creates a virtual world identical to the real world. Problems in the real world can be identified through various simulations, so it is a trend to be applied in various industries. In order to apply the digital twin, it is necessary to analyze the drawings in which the structure of the real world to be made identical is designed. Although the technology for analyzing drawings is being studied, it is difficult to apply them because the rules or standards for drawing drawings are different for each author. Therefore, in this paper, we implement a system that analyzes and classifies the vertex detail, one of the drawings, using artificial intelligence. Through this, we intend to confirm the possibility of analyzing and classifying drawings through artificial intelligence and introduce future research directions.
