Recently, precast concrete tracks are replacing ballast track for efficient and economic maintenance of track. Precast concrete railroad tracks are manufactured in factory, and transported to railroad construction site for installation. Therefore, quality of precast concrete track itself should be sufficiently good. On the contrary to the convenient manufacturing of precast concrete track, the installation of a precast concrete track requires careful steps. Typically, a precast concrete track is placed on an approximately 15-cm thick lean concrete layer. A mortar is filled between lean concrete layer and precast concrete track to adjust the sloping angle of a precast concrete track for a safe train operation at a curvy section. Then, the use of filled mortarproduces a void underneath a precast concrete track, which is harmful to structural safety of a precast concrete track undercyclic loading. Therefore, it is essential to make sure that there is no void left beneath a precast concrete track after mortar filling. In the continuous resonance method, the amplitude of frequency response measured using an instrumented hammer and an accelerometer is plotted against a pseudo-depth, which is half of the wave velocity divided by frequency. The frequency response functions are measured at consecutive measurement locations, 6-cm interval between measurement points, and then combined together to generate a 2-D plot of frequency response. The sections with strong reflections or large amplitude of frequency response are suspicious areas with internal voids and unfilled areas. The 2-D frequency response plot was efficient in locating problematic sections just by examining the color shade of a visualized plot in 2-D format. Some of the problematic sections were drilled to make a visual inspection of mortar filling. The visual image of interface between mortar and precast concrete track was verified using the validity of the continuous resonance technique adopted in this research.

600km/h급 철도노반 개발은 초고속주행에 의한 동적상호작용의 예측이 어렵기 때문에 기술개발에 애로사항이 많다. 특히 교량/토공 접속부는 동적 상호작용을 포함하여 지지력, 압축, 침하, 배수, 유동 등의 영향 요소가 복합적으로 발생하는 구간으로서 접속부에서의 안정성이 확보된다면 초고속 열차용 토공노반의 안정성도 확보 가능할 것으로 예상된다. 본 논문에서는 초고속철도 접속구조개발의 기초 연구단계로서 국내 고속철도에서 적용하고 있는 접속부의 보강방안을 우선적으로 적용하여 초고속 주행시의 설계변수 영향을 해석적으로 검토하였다. 설계변수는 설계단계에서 검토 가능한 항목인 보강방안의 유무, 기하하적 형상, 재료의 강성 등이며, 분석내용은 초고속주행에 따른 궤도의 변형응답과 주행안정성을 검토하였다.
