Elastic-plastic methods have been used for the better prediction of the actual behavior of continuous-composite plate girder bridges in the overload and maximum load analysis. The structural evaluation using ALFD(Alternate Load Factor Design) uses the elastic-plastic analysis. The plastic rotations that remain after the load is removed can be occurred by the yielding locations of the maximum moment section. This situation can occur due to the residual stresses even if the moment is below the theoretical yield moment. The local yielding causes positive automoments that assure elastic behavior under subsequent overloads. In this study, the automoments at the piers occurred due to the unit plastic rotations and other locations were calculated by the conjugate-beam method and three-moment equation, using the nine design span with progressively smaller pier sections. The automoments were determined by the developed computer programs in this study in which the moments and plastic rotations from the continuity and moment-inelastic rotation relationships must be equal. And also the ratings of 3-span continuous composite plate girder bridges with non-compact section were carried out according to the Korean Highway Bridge Specification.

본 연구는 고강도 강재를 적용한 연속교 형식의 강교량에 대하여 연구를 수행하였다. 교량에 사용되는 주구조의 고강도화에 따로 연속교의 교각 부근 부모멘트부에는 정모멘트부에 비하여 큰 모멘트가 작용하게 된다. 또한 정모멘트 구간과 달리 상부플랜지에 인장력이 작용하게 되어 완공 후에도 극한 하중 상태에서 콘크리트 데크가 응력을 부담할 수 없게 된다. 이에 따라 하부 플랜지에 불안정 파괴가 발생할 가능성이 있으며 비합성 단면과 같은 방법으로 설계하게 된다. 또한 모멘트 재분배를 고려한 설계를 하기 위해서는 부모멘트부에 충분한 휨 연성이 필요하다. 고강도 강재를 적용한 교량은 일반강재를 적용한 교량에 비하여 휨연성이 감소하게 되므로 휨연성 확보를 위한 보강방안이 필요하다. 본 연구는 부모멘트부의 휨연성 향상을 휘하여 가로보의 부등 배치를 제안하였으며, 유한요소해석 결과 휨연성이 향상되었다.

In this study, flexural strength and ductility requirements of composite hybrid steel I-girder with its HSB(high performance steel for bridge) applied to tension flanges are examined in positive bending. In AASHTO LRFD specification, flexural strength and ductility requirements of composite I-girder in positive bending are specified in terms of plastic moment and plastic neutral axis that are derived from plastic behavior of conventional steel. However, plastic zone cannot be defined clearly from the stress-strain behavior of HSB unlike the behavior of conventional steel. Therefore, through idealized stress-strain curves of HSB, the plastic moment of composite hybrid steel I-girder with its HSB applied to tension flanges is defined by assuming the plastic zone of HSB. By using the consequences of numerical analysis regarding arbitrary cross-sections that have various dimensions, ductility requirements and flexural strength of composite hybrid I-girder with its HSB applied to tension flange are proposed.

The flexural strength of composite HSB hybrid I-girders under positive moment is investigated by the moment-curvature analysis method to evaluate the applicability of the current AASHTO LRFD design specification to such girders. The hybrid girders are assumed to have the top flange and the web fabricated from HSB600 steel and the bottom flange made of HSB800 steel. More than 6,200-composite I-girder sections that satisfy the section proportion limits of AASHTOL RFD specifications are generatedby the random sampling technique to consider a statistically meaningful wide range of section properties. The flexural capacities of the sections are calculated by the nonlinear moment-curvature analysis in which the HSB600 and HSB800 steels are modeled as an elastoplastic, strain-hardening material and the concrete as CEB-FIP model. The effects of ductility ratio and compressive strength of concrete slab on the flexural strength of composite hybrid girders make of HSB steels are analyzed. Numerical results indicated that the current AASHTO-LRFD equation can be used to calculate the flexural strength of composite hybrid girders fabricated from HSB steel.

The flexural behavior of composite HSB600 and HSB800 I-girders under a positive moment was investigated using the material non-linear moment-curvature analysis method. Three representative composite sections with different ductility properties were selected as the baseline sections in this study. Using these baseline sections, the moment-curvature program was verified by comparing the flexural strength and the moment-curvature curve obtained from the program with those obtained using the non-linear FE analysis of ABAQUS. In the FE analysis, the composite girders were modeled three-dimensionally with flanges, the web, and the concrete slab as thin shell elements, and initial imperfections and residual stresses were imposed on the FE model. In the moment-curvature and FE analyses, the 28-day compressive strength of the concrete slab was assumed to be 30-50 MPa, and the HSB600 and HSB800 steels were modeled as elasto-plastic strain-hardening materials, with the concrete as the CEB-FIP model. The effects of the ductility ratio of the composite girder, the type of steel, the compressive strength of the concrete deck, and the location of the plastic neutral axis on the flexural characteristics were analyzed.

The inelastic design of the three-span continuous composite plate girder with consideration of moment redistribution over the interior pier is performed using the LRFD method. The design of the girder section, based on the inelastic method, is compared with that by the conventional elastic design. The length of the center span for the three-span continuous bridge ranges from 40m to 70m and the relative ratio of the span length is assumed to be 4:5:4. Although the AASHTO- LRFD specifications are applied in the design of the composite girder, the recently proposed new design live load is used. After determining the maximum positive and negative sections by the elastic design for various limit states, the amount of moment redistributed to the maximum positive moment section is calculated. With the increased design moment due to moment redistribution from the interior pier, the maximum positive section designed by the elastic method is checked for the strength limit state and the service limit state. The maximum negative moment section is redesigned by reducing the size of the steel girder relative to the section designed by the elastic method and the new section is checked for the service limit state. Based on the design results for the five bridges considered in this study, it is estimated that about 23% of steel can be saved in the interior pier section if it is designed by the inelastic method compared with that designed by the elastic method.

In this study, based on the temperature distribution and the spalling histories those obtained in the companion paper, the thermal stress and moments of underground box structure were estimated. Additionally, the ultimate sectional moment considering with the thermal nonlinearities of material were estimated and the load carrying capacity of underground box structure was also obtained. As results, the load carrying capacity of negative moment part was dominated by thermal moment that come from thermal gradient of the section. However, the load carrying capacity of the positive moment part was rules by the yield stress of rebar that exposed to the high temperature induced spalling phenomena.

I-거더 형식의 연속교 교각 부근에서는 큰 부모멘트가 작용하게 되며 이로 인하여 소성힌지가 생성되게 된다. 소성힌지가 형성됨에 따라 교각 부근의 부모멘트는 감소하게 되며, 정모멘트부의 휨모멘트는 반대로 증가하게 된다. 이러한 모멘트 재분배가 원활히 발생하기 위해서는 소성힌지가 충분한 휨연성 혹은 단면회전 능력을 가지고 있어야 한다. 하지만 고강도 강재를 적용한 연속교에서는 재료연성이 다소 떨어지는 경향이 있고, 재료의 항복응력이 증가할수록 I-거더의 탄성 변형량은 이에 비례하여 증가하므로, 소성변형 능력 및 휨연성이 감소하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서, 고강도 강재를 I-거더 형식의 연속교에 적용할 때 부모멘트부의 휨연성을 정량적으로 예측하여 재분배 모멘트가 원활히 이루어 지는지에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 유한요소해석 연구를 통하여 고강도강재 적용 I-거더 연속교의 재분배 모멘트를 고려한 휨거동 대하여 연구를 수행하였다. 연구 결과 재료의 인장 강도가 증가함에 따라 탄성 변형이 증가하며 소성 변형 능력이 저하됨으로 I-거더의 휨연성이 현저하게 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 소성모멘트 까지 선형거동하는 재료모델을 이용한 간략식을 통하여 연속교의 휨거동을 예측하여 유한요소해석 결과와 비교하였다.

The flexural strength of composite HSB I-girders under a positive moment was investigated using the moment-curvature analysis method to evaluate the applicability of the current AASHTO LRFD design specifications to such girders. A total of 2,391 composite I-girder sections that satisfied the section proportion limits of the AASHTO LRFD specifications was generated by the random sampling technique to consider a wide range of section properties. The flexural capacities of the sections were calculated inthe nonlinear moment-curvature analysis in which the HSB600 and HSB800 steels were modeled as an elasto-plastic strain-hardening material, and the concrete, as a CEB-FIP model. The effects of the ductility ratio and the compressive strength of the concrete slab on the flexural strength of the composite girders made of HSB and SM520-TMC steels were analyzed. The numerical results indicated that the current AASHTO LRFD equation can be used to calculate the flexural strength of composite girders made of HSB600 steel. In contrast, the current AASHTO LRFD equation was found to be non-conservative in its prediction of the flexural strength of composite HSB800 girders. Based on the numerical results of this study for 2,391 girders, a new design equation for the flexural strength of composite HSB800 girders in a positive moment was proposed.
