Currently the number of bridge, large or small, throughout the nation reaches at least 20,000 which tend to increase year by year. Now some of the special bridges are professionally managed through the maintenance monitoring system and the number of bridges under the maintenance monitoring system will be increase. The deflection-measure of spans among the measuring items is important item for checking bridge-condition. This study made an investigation into the management reference and estimated the safety-factor of the management reference

The aim of this paper is to verify the dynamics stability of the continuous PSC Box bridges on the high-speed Kyoung-bu railway when a high-sped train runs through it. An experimental study was carried out to investigate the dynamic behaviors of the PSC Box railway bridge, which had ben designed based on dynamic design criteria. As a result, it was determined that PSC Box railway bridges possess enough dynamics stability for use by high-speed trains. According to the result of a field test (dynamics measuring analysis) that was conducted, an application of the natural frequency of train speed and the adjustment of the bridge's span length will allow one to come up with a more economical and suitable bridge design. Furthermore, it was found that the continuous control of the bridge's dynamic behavior and the bridge's maintena nce require the recording of data. The results of this study are very important in evaluating the structural stability of high-speed line bridges.

With the development of technology worldwide, bridges are becoming larger, and the number of old bridges is also rapidly increasing. Monitoring the structural health of large, aging bridges is essential to preventing large-scale accidents. In this study, the application of a LoRa low-power wide-area network (LPWAN)-based wireless measurement system was investigated, and a LoRa wireless measurement system was established in the cable-stayed bridge section of Cheonsa Bridge, located in Shinan-gun, Jeollanam-do, Korea. The applicability of the LoRa LPWAN-based wireless monitoring system to large marine bridges was reviewed by comparing the performance and economic feasibility with wire-based monitoring systems that were built and operated by establishing a measurement system for the pylons, cables, and reinforcing girders of the bridge.

In this study, an experiment was carried out on the field applicability of tension measuring devices of the cables in cable-stayed bridges. The vibration method was used to estimate the tension of cables of cable-stayed bridge, and the mode characteristics of the cable were analyzed using a cable tension measuring device. GTDL360, NI Module, and 9 Axes Motion Sensorwere applied to estimate the cable tension of five target bridges. Numerical analysis of the five target bridges was conducted to analyze the natural frequency of the cable and cable tension. The estimated tension of the cable based on field measurements and estimated tension of cable by numerical analysis were compared with the estimated tension of the cable based on field measurements. The analysis showed that the measured tension of the cable based on field measurements was within the margin of error. Therefore, it is safe to apply these measuring devices to the site. As a result of comparing and analyzing the values of the acceleration-based cable estimation tension and numerical analysis of the field demonstration bridge, the acceleration-based cable estimation of tension is deemed appropriate within the allowable range. On-site applicability analysis revealed limitations of the measuring devices, such as the installation location of sensors and weather conditions, so continuous follow-up research on smart cable tension measuring systems is expected.

Recently, structural health monitoring system(SHMS) has been appled cable bridges as the effective maintenance tool and the management threshold is considered to assess the status of the bridge in SHMS. The threshold is generally determined by the allowable limit based on design specification because there is no method and standard for threshold calculation. In case of the conventional thresholds, it is difficult to recognize the event, abnormal behavior and gradual damage within the threshold. Therefore, this study reviewed the problem of previous methods and proposed the advanced methodologies based on probabilistic approach for threshold calculation which can be applied to practice work. Gumbel distribution is adopted in order to calculate the threshold for caution and warning states considering the expectations for return periods of 50 and 100 years. The thresholds were individually determined for measurement data and data variation to detect the various abnormal behaviors within allowable range. Finally, it has confirmed that the thresholds by the proposed method is detectable the abnormal behavior of real-time measuring data from SHMS.

사장교에서 케이블은 하중을 지지하는 주요 부재로, 케이블 장력은 사장교의 건전성과 안전도 평가에 있어서 매우 중요한 변수이다. 케이블 장력을 추정하기 위한 대표적인 방법으로는 로드셀을 이용한 직접법과 진동 계측 자료를 이용한 간접법 등이 있으며, 최근에는 자기장-응력 관계를 이용한 EM(Elasto-Magnetic) 센서 측정법이 개발되어 케이블 장력 추정에 적용되었다. 본 논문에서는 세 가지 장력 추정 기법을 실제 시공중인 사장교에 적용하여, 그 성능을 상호 비교하였다. 본 연구는 한국의 KAIST와 미국 Northeastern 대학교의 공동연구로 수행되었다. 대상 교량은 부산 화명동과 김해 초정리를 연결하기 위해 현재 건설중인 화명대교이다. 화명대교의 교량 형식은 2주탑 콘크리트 사장교 (주탑 경간장 270m, 총 사장교 구간장 500m)이며, 사장재로는 MS (Multi-Strand) 형 케이블이 사용되었다. 실험 당시 화명대교는 중앙경간의 폐합 후 선형관리를 위한 장력조정작업을 수행하였으며, 케이블 재긴장시의 정확한 장력관리를 위하여 로드셀을 이용한 Lift-off test방법으로 케이블의 장력을 측정하였다. 이와 동시에 두 개의 케이블을 대상으로 진동 가속도 센서와 EM 센서를 설치하고 장력 계측을 수행하였으며, 재긴장 단계별 장력 변화치를 지속적으로 계측하였다. 계측된 결과를 바탕으로 케이블 장력 추정 기법의 정확성 및 실교량에서의 활용성을 비교하였다.

As long span and complex bridges are constructed often recently, safety estimation became a big issue. Various types of measuring instruments are installed in case of long span bridge. New wireless technologies for long span bridges such as sending information through a gateway at the field or sending it through cables by signal processing the sensing data are applied these days. However, The case of occurred accidents related to bridge in the world have been reported that serious accidents occur due to lack of real-time proactive, intelligent action based on recognition accidents. To solve this problem in this study, the idea of "communication among things", which is the basic method of RFID/USN technology, is applied to the bridge monitoring system. A sensor node module for USN based intelligent bridge system in which sensor are utilized on the bridge and communicates interactively to prevent accidents when it captures the alert signals and urgent events, sends RF wireless signal to the nearest traffic signal to block the traffic and prevent massive accidents, is designed and tested by performing TinyOS based middleware design and sensor test free Space trans-receiving distance.

구조물의 동특성은 대형구조물을 상시감시 할 수 있는 장점으로 인하여 널리 활용된다. 상시감시를 위해 계측된 랜덤 데이터는 FFT를 통한 구조물의 동적 고유특성을 분석함으로써 이루어진다. 이 과정에서 Input Data와 Response Data사이에서 FFT Analyzer를 통하여 FRF가 측정된다. 특히 랜덤 데이터의 계측은 여건과 환경에 따라 발생하는 Noise로부터 가능한 정확한 FRF를 계측해야만 성공적인 구조물의 고유의 동적특성을 파악하게 된다. 랜덤 데이터에서 발생할 가능성이 높은 입력, 출력 Noise를 동시에 최소화 할 수 있는 새로운 개념의 FRF측정 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이 알고리즘에 의하여 장대형 모형교량으로부터 Modal 실험을 수행하여 계측된 동특성을 FE 해석 결과와 비교 평가하여 유용성을 제시한다.
