In recent years, the development of complex urban areas has become saturated and much attention has been focused on the development of underground space, and deep excavation is frequently performed in order to increase the utilization of underground space due to the enlargement of buildings and the high rise of buildings. Therefore, in this study, we tried to understand the behavior of the braced wall and the behavior of the tunnel adjacent to the wall according to the stiffness of the wall and the distance between the tunnel and wall. As a result of the study, the deformation of the braced wall tended to decrease with increasing the stiffness of the wall, and the axial force acting on the struts was also different according to the stiffness of braced wall. When the stiffness of the braced wall is small (2 mm), the point at which the axial force of the braces maximizes is near 0.3H of the wall. When the stiffness of the braced wall is large (5 mm), the axial force is maximum at around 0.7H of the wall. Also, the tunnel convergence occurred more clearly when the separation distance from the braced wall was closer, the stiffness of the wall was smaller, and the tunnel convergence was concentrated to the lower right part. The ground settlement due to the excavation of the ground tended to decrease as the distance between tunnel and braced wall was closer to that of the tunnel, which is considered to be influenced by the stiffness of the tunnel.

본 논문에서는 등가소성힌지길이 개념을 새롭게 개선하여 도입함하여 구조물의 거동특성을 평가하는 프로그램을 개발하였다. 시간의 경과 및 외부환경 변화와 더불어 발생 가능한 지하구조물의 변상은 해당 구조물의 구성재료 및 작용하는 외압의 형태 등에 의해 다르게 나타나게 된다. 즉, 장기적인 지반외력의 변화에 의해 콘크리트 구조체의 천단부에 큰 휨압축응력과 인장을력이 생기는데, 내측에는 압축이 생기고 외측에는 인장균열이 발생한다. 또한 측벽이나 어깨부에서는 인장응력과 전단응력에 의한 균열이 발생하기도 한다. 따라서 개발된 프로그램으로 균열발생단면에 대하여 축력, 휨모멘트, 균열폭을 서로 연관 지을 수 있게 될 뿐만 아니라 균열폭의 확장을 추적해 나갈 수 있다. 해석기법을 토대로 개발된 해석모듈을 이용하여, 본 해석 기법의 타당성에 대한 검증을 실시하였다. 검증을 위해서는 수평보구조와 터널구조에 대해 각각 해석을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 구조물 내에서의 균열의 진전이 점차적으로 확장되어 가는 것이 표현 가능한 것을 확인하였으며, 해석결과의 타당성을 확인하였다.

Generally, main girders and steel piers of temporary bridges form the steel rahmen structure. In this study, the rational stability design procedure for main members of temporary bridges was presented using a 3D system buckling analysis and second-order elastic analysis. Six types of temporary bridges, which can be designed and fabricated in reality, were chosen and the buckling design for them was performed in consideration ofload combinations of dead and live loads, thermal load, and wind load. Effective buckling length of steel piers, transition of 3D buckling modes, and effects of second-order analysis were investigated through a case study involving six temporary bridges.

Generated Axial Force (GAF) due to internal friction at Constant Velocity (CV) joints is one of the causes generating vibration problems such as shudder in vehicle. In this study, the GAF measuring tester is developed to precisely measure GAF caused by internal friction in CV joints. As the developed tester can control temperature at joint, driving torque, angle of rotation and joint angles, actual driving conditions such as sudden acceleration can be applied to the machine. GAFs are measured and compared by using different types of grease in tripod housing. Also GAFs are measured for both new and used CV joints to be compared and analyzed. The test result shows the repeatability and consistency of the tester in terms of the different test conditions. By using the developed CV joint tester, friction performance of the joint can be evaluated by proposing the best CV joints as well as greases generating the lowest GAF.

This study deals with the analytical solution for soil-lining interaction in a deep and circular tunnel. Simple closed-form analytical solutions for thrust and moment in the circular tunnel lining due to static and seismic loadings are developed by considering the relations between displacement and interaction forces at the soil-lining interface. The interaction effect at the soil-lining interface is considered with new ratios (the normal and shear stiffness ratios). The effects of the ratios on the normalized thrust and the normalized moment are investigated.

Sliding slab track system, which consists of low friction sliding layer between track slab and bridge deck, is recently devised to reduce track-bridge interaction effect of continuously welded rail(CWR) without applying special devices such as rail expansion joint(REJ). In this study, a series of track-bridge interaction analyses of a long-span bridge with sliding slab track and REJ are performed respectively and the results are compared. The bridge model includes PSC box girder bridge with 9 continuous spans, and steel-concrete composite girder bridge with 2 continuous spans. The total length of the bridge model is 1,205m, and the maximum spacing between the two fixed supports is 825m. Analyses results showed that the sliding slab track system is highly effective on interaction reduction since lower rail additional axial stress is resulted than REJ application. Additionally, horizontal reaction forces in fixed supports were also reduced compared to the results of REJ application. However, higher slab axial forces were developed in the sliding slab track due to the temperature load. Therefore, track slab section of the sliding slab track system should be carefully designed against slab axial forces.

The oversized and slotted holes are frequently required for the built-up in construction sites. The foreign provisions specify the reduction of the slip load subjected to the size of bolt holes and the direction of load. There are no domestic building codes and researches on the bolt holes. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate a change of joint strength quantitatively according to the bolt-hole size and surface condition by means of experiment. This study was conducted to evaluate the slip load subjected to the size of bolt holes, and measured on a change of clamping force of high strength bolts during 168 and 800 hours to analyze the trend of relaxation after fastening bolts. Torque shear bolts defined on KS B 2819 was used for the specimen. Test results exhibit that the variation on the slip load of the others was below 10% by contrast with the standard hole and the highest rate of relaxation was 2.66% of the initial clamping force at the case of the long-slotted hole of 2.5D.

This paper presents the effect of tunneling and groundwater interaction on tunnel behavior. As part of this study, design issuses for tunneling situations similar to that considered in this study are first identified. A parametric study is then conducted on tunneling situations frequently encountered in Seoul area using a 3D stress-pore presure coupled finite-element model with emphasis on the effects of ground and lining permeabilities. The results indicate that tunneling in water bearing ground results in a deeper and wider settlement trough, increased axial thrusts in shotcrete lining than those without the groundwater. Also revealed is that the axial thrusts in shotcrete lining are governed by the relative permeability between the ground and the lining. Design implications of the findings from this study are discussed.

It is very important to study on the structural behaviors of structurally damaged tunnel linings. A series of centrifuge model tests were performed in order to investigate different behaviors of tunnel linings. A 1/100-scaled aluminum horseshoe tunnel linings with a radius 5 cm, height 8 cm were buried in a depth with dry Joomunjin standard sand, the relative density of which was 86%. Such sectional forces as bending moments and thrusts along the tunnel circumference were measured by twelve strain gages. Earth pressures in soil mass and on the outside of lining model were estimated by pressure transducers, ground surface settlements at a center and edges by using LVDTs.

Continuous welded rail on bridge structure experiences typically a large amount of additional longitudinal axial forces due to longitudinal track-bridge interaction under temperature and traction/braking load effect. In order to reduce the additional axial forces, special type of fastener, such as ZLR and RLR or rail expansion joint should be applied. Sliding slab track system is known to reduce the effect of track-bridge interaction by the application of a sliding layer between slab track and bridge structure. This study presents track-bridge interaction analysis results of the sliding slab track and compares them with conventional fixed slab track on bridges. The result shows that the sliding slab track can significantly reduce the additional axil forces of the continuously welded rail, and the difference is more significant for long and continuous span bridge.
