유리섬유 복합소재 바닥판은 고강도, 경량 그리고 고내구성을 가지고 있으므로, 현재 국내 및 해외에서 교량에 꾸준히 적용되고 있다. 국내외에서 기존에 사용하고 있는 복합소재 데크는 주로 수평방향의 암수접착을 통한 결합을 실시하고 있으나 본 연구진에 의해 획기적인 착탈결합방식 연결이 가능한 복합소재데크를 개발하였다. 복합소재 적층설계를 통해 설계된 복합소재 데크의 물성치를 ESAComp에 의한 적층해석과 시편시험을 통해 추정하였다.

Glass-fiber reinforced polyester (GFRP) composite material is a promising alternative to existing construction materials such as steel, concrete and wood due to light weight and high durability of GFRP composite material. If a temporary arch bridge is built by GFRP composite deck, rapid construction of the bridge and reuse of the GFRP composite deck are possible. In this paper, we develop a type of temporary arch bridges that can be built by easy assembling of GFRP composite decks. For this purpose, several possible types of temporary arch bridges are suggested and verified by finite element analysis.

Due to lightweight and high durability of glass-fiber reinforced polyester (GFRP) materials, they are promising alternatives to conventional construction materials such as steel, concrete and wood. As good application examples of GFRP materials, several types of temporary arch bridges were suggested and verified by finite element analyses in our previous study where snap-fit GFRP decks were applied. In this paper, we conduct a structural performance test to verify safety and serviceability of the temporary arch bridge, where snap-fit GFRP decks are assembled by bolts. The structural problems occurred in this test are also discussed and improvement of temporary arch bridges is suggested to resolve the occurred structural problems.

Composite deck plate using a pre-assembled re-bar truss for slab with corrugated zinc galvanized sheet iron at manufactory, is given the improvement on design, manufacture, and performance for construction work of cast-in-place reinforced concrete slab by enabling to cast concrete directly without the form work. There are two methods in analyzing composite deck : Simplified 2D analysis and 3D analysis. Although simplified 2D analysis is being used up to date, the use of 3D analysis, allowing for the vierendeel behavior of composite deck by real configuration correlating to bar reducing, is demanded. To compare the simplified 2D analysis applied to allowable stress design with 3D analysis applied to limit state design, 8 specimen are manufactured. Main variables include the depth of slab, the length of span, the diameter of bottom bar and lattice bar, and the presence of corrugated zinc galvanized sheet iron. The comparison from the experimental result and analytical result indicates that applying of simplified 2D analysis is possible for the use of D10 with bottom bar. However, it is more reasonable to apply 3D analysis which allows to indicate vierendeel behavior considered the real configuration.

The composite metal deck plate system has been widely used for office structures. Recently, however, the flat deck plate has been developed to apply the composite slab system to residential structures. Reduction in construction cost and time can be expected by using expanded metal instead of wire mesh as crack control reinforcements. This study proposed a composite slab system composed of a new-shaped steel deck plate and expanded metal. Twelve specimens were tested to evaluate the structural performance of the new composite slab system. The test results were summarized mainly in terms of maximum load carrying capacity and failure behaviors of each specimen.

Push-out tests were performed to evaluate the shear capacity of a composite steel truss deck slab system, called an automatic prefabrication bar-mesh system, using lightweight concrete. The six specimens were classified into three groups: DP, NDP, and Solid, according to the variations between the bar mesh and the zinc plate automatic prefabrications. This paper focused on the failure behaviors, load-displacement characteristics, and a performance comparison based on design codes.

현재 유전개발이 가속화 되고 있는 캐나다의 유전개발현장에서 진입도로용으로 사용하고 있는 목재 가도 매트를 대체하기 위해 고강도 경량 고내구성 특성을 갖는 복합소재 리그매트를 개발하였다. 기존에 본 연구진이 개발한 리그매트는 중차량의 반복하중에 취약한 거동을 보였으므로 이를 해결하기 위한 개선형 리그매트를 개발하였다. 개선형 리그매트의 구조안전성을 평가하기 위하여 단일데크의 강축 휨에 대한 해석 및 시험을 실시하여 휨 거동 특성을 조사하였다.

To substitute conventional reinforced-concrete bridge deck, glass composite precast bridge deck - Delta Deck/sup TM/, which possesses advantages of light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance and durability, is developed for the DB24 truck load. Pultruded composite bridge deck is designed and fabricated. To verify serviceability and structural safety, finite element analysis, structural testing such as flexural test, local fatigue test, flexural fatigue test and field tests are conducted. In this paper structural characteristics of developed deck and its field application in Korea is presented.

In the conventional reinforced-concrete bridge deck, concrete and steels are likely to be deteriorated and corroded under the influence of noxious environment. To cope with these problems caused in the conventional reinforced-concrete bridge deck, pultruded composite bridge deck, called Delta Deck, is developed. In this paper, local deflection and fatigue characteristics of Delta Deck for DB24 truck load are evaluated through analysis and experiments.

Recent days composite bridge dock is gaining attraction due to many advantages such as light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance, and high durability. In this study, composite deck models of hat, box and triangular section type wore fabricated with VARTM Process. For these models, three point flexural tests wore carried out both in strong and weak axis. The experimental results were compared with each other to determine efficient section profile. It has been demonstrated that composite sandwich deck has strong potentials to be used as bridge deck in the new construction and rehabilitation works.
