휨강성이 작은 바닥시스템인 플랫 플레이트 구조는 응력조건 뿐만 아니라 사용성조건에 의하여 구조적 성능이 결정될 수 있으며, 특히 과도한 시공 하중의 작용은 시공 중 안전성에 대한 단기적인 손상 뿐만 아니라 사용성에 관련된 장기적인 손상을 발생시킬 수 있다. 이러한 플랫 플레이트의 시공하중은 동바리지지 층 수, 시공주기, 슬래브 콘크리트의 재료적인 강성 뿐만 아니라, 동바리의 강성과 슬래브에 발생하는 균열에 의한 영향에 의하여 결정된다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 설계조건에 대한 해석연구를 통하여, 동바리-슬래브의 강성비 변화 및 콘크리트 균열에 의한 단면강성저하가 슬래브들 간의 하중 분포에 미치는 영향을 분석하고, 이러한 동바리 강성 및 슬래브 균열의 영향을 고려한 시공하중 산정법을 제안한다.

In recent times, accidents involving structural elements, formwork, and shore have been persistently occurring during concrete pouring, especially in multi-story reinforced concrete (RC) structures. In previous studies, research on construction load analysis was mainly conducted for cases where the thickness of all slabs is constant. However, when the thickness of some slabs is different, the variation in the stiffness of slab cross-sections can lead to different distributions of construction loads, necessitating further investigation. In this study, the slab thickness was set as a variable, and the analysis of the distribution of construction loads was conducted, taking into account the influence of changes in slab thickness on the concrete stiffness and structure. It was confirmed that not only the concrete material stiffness but also the slab cross-section stiffness should be considered in the estimation of construction loads when the slab thickness changes. As the slab thickness increases, the maximum construction load and maximum damage parameter on the layer with increased thickness significantly increase, and it was observed that a thicker slab results in a higher proportion of construction load.

Effective beam width model(EBWM) has been used for analysis of post-tensioned(PT) flat plate slab frames under lateral loads. The accuracy of this model in predicting lateral drifts and unbalanced moments strongly depends on the estimated effective stiffness of PT flat plate slabs. As moments on the slab due to lateral loads increases, cracks occur which leads to stiffness reduction in slabs. For analyzing PT flat plate slab structure under lateral loads with good precision, reduction in slab stiffness has to be accurately estimated for EBWM. For this purpose, this study collected test results of PT flat plate system conducted by former researches. And this study reduced the width of slab so that the stiffness of the EBWM converged into the lateral stiffness of each test specimens by trial and error. By conducting nonlinear regression analysis using the stiffness ratio of the reduced width of slab to the effective width of EBWM with respect to the level of slab moments, an equation for calculating stiffness reduction factor for slab is proposed. For verifying the accuracy of the proposed equation, this study compared with the test result of the PT flat plate frame. It is shown that the EBWM with the proposed equation predicts the actual stiffness of the PT specimen which varied according to the level of applied moment.

Recently, concrete tracks are introduced into high-speed railroads as an alternative to ballast tracks. Concrete tracks are superior to ballast tracks in the aspect of durability, maintenance and safety. However, deteriorated stiffness of railroad bed and settlement of soft ground induced by trapped or seepage water lead to problems in safety of train operation. In this research, flexural rigidity of concrete tracks was employed as an index of track displacement and a new seismic technique called FRACTAL (Flexural-Rigidity Assessment of Concrete Tracks by Antisymmetric Lamb Waves) method was proposed to delineate flexural rigidity of concrete tracks in a 2-D image. In this paper, to establish theoretical background, parametric research was performed using numerical simulations of stress-wave tests at concrete tracks. Feasibility of the FRACTAL technique was proved at a real concrete track for Korean high-speed trains. Validity of the FRACTAL technique was also verified by comparing the results of impulse-response tests performed at the same measurement array and the results of DC resistivity survey performed at a shoulder nearby the track.

In this study, analytical investigations on the flexural behavior of FRP reinforced concrete slab were discussed. In the derivation of analytic solution, the FRP reinforced concrete slab was modeled as a structural orthotropic plate. To determine the flexural rigidities of an orthotropic plate model, the elastic equivalence method was employed. In the finite element analysis, the approximate method to determine the rigidity matrix of orthotropic plate element was also suggested using the elastic equivalence method. The results obtained by the analytical solution and the finite element analysis were compared with that of experiment.

The study purposed to investigate the optimal location of core and offset outrigger system considering floor diaphragm. To accomplish this aim, a structure design of 70 stories building was performed by using MIDAS-Gen. And the leading factors of the analysis research were the slab stiffness, the stiffness of shear wall and the outrigger position in plan. Based on the analysis results, we analyzed and studied the influences of the shear wall stiffness and the slab stiffness on optimal location of core and offset outrigger considering floor diaphragm. The results of the analysis study indicated whether the slab stiffness, the stiffness of shear wall and the outrigger position in plan had an any impact on optimal location in outrigger system of tall building. Also the paper results can give help in getting the structural engineering materials for looking for the optimal position of outrigger system in the high-rise building.

It is known that the long-term behavior and performance of jointed concrete pavement due to slab curling are affected by the environmental factors such as temperature, moisture, and so on. However, any relationships between the curling and its factors have not been defined clearly yet because of insufficient detailed investigation. The temperature, relative humidity, strain, vertical displacement of a concrete slab, and horizontal movement of its transverse joints were investigated by various sensors and devices instrumented in the slab of a concrete pavement section constructed for this study. The constraint of the curling by joint stiffness was investigated in addition to effect of the temperature and moisture on the early aged concrete slab by analyzing the field data measured for approximately 4days from concrete placement. The curling of the concrete slab showed 24hour cycles mainly because of the temperature effect, and the upward curling gradually increased because of the long-term effect of drying shrinkage of the concrete. The magnitude and variation of the curling were significantly affected by the joint stiffness which is comprised of aggregate interlocking and other factors. The effect of the variation of the seasonal joint stiffness varying with the temperature and long-term drying shrinkage on the slab curling will be investigated as a further study.

Deformations of bridge deck ends on abutments and piers bring about severe problems in track geometry and require maintenance work. In case of concrete slab track, more severe deformation and additional forces on rail and rail supports can be induced by bridge deck deformation, which affect the serviceability of track structure since concrete slab track is much stiffer than ballasted track and the behavior of track structure is integrated with that of bridge deck. In this study, the design variables affecting the serviceability of track structure are selected and the influence level is estimated by a parametric study. As a result, it is found that continuous span is advantageous than simply supported span and the stiffness of bridge bearing and rail fastener as well as the distance between last rail support and bridge bearing are most important parameters.

The paper aimed to find out the lateral behavior of outrigger system in high-rise building considering floor diaphragm. To achieve this goal, a structural schematic design of 80 stories building was conducted by utilizing MIDAS-Gen. In this research, the key parameters of the structure analysis were the outrigger location in plan, the slab stiffness, the outrigger stiffness and the kind of diaphragm. For the purpose of this study, we analyzed and studied the lateral displacement in top floor, the story drift and the stress in slab. The research results indicated that the outrigger location in plan, the slab stiffness, the outrigger stiffness and the kind of diaphragm had an effect on lateral behavior in outrigger system of tall building. And the results of this analysis research can provided the assistance in getting the basic data of structure design for looking for the lateral behavior of outrigger system in the high-rise building.

This study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of the curling behavior of long-span pavement slabs under environmental loads. By developing and using finite element models of the long-span pavement slabs, the stress distribution and the effects of slab length, slab thickness, stiffness of underlying layers, and the restraints of the slab ends on the curling behavior were analyzed. In addition, the field experiments were performed with the actual long-span pavement slab to obtain the curling behavior of the real structure under environmental loads. As a result of this study, it was found that the vertical displacements of the long-span pavement slab along the centerline due to the curling behavior were zero except for the areas near the slab ends, and the curling stresses were maximum and constant where the displacements were zero. The slab length and the stiffness of underlying layers did not affect the maximum curling stresses. The restraints at the slab ends made the curling stresses occur near the slab ends, but did not much affect the maximum curling stresses.
