Recently, the use of deep deck plate has been increased in various structures, such as underground parking lots, logistics warehouses, because it can reduce construction periods and labor costs. In this study, a newly developed Double Deck (D-deck) plate which can leads to save story heights has been introduced, and experimental tests on a total of five D-deck plates under construction loads have been carried out to investigate their structural performance at construction stage. The loads were applied by sands and concrete to simulate the actual distributed loading conditions, and the vertical deflection of D-Deck and the horizontal deformation of web were measured and analyzed in detail. As a result, it was confirmed that all the D-decks showed very small vertical deflection of less than 5.34 mm under construction loads, which satisfies the maximum deflection limit of L / 180. In addition, the D-Deck plate was found to have a sufficient rigidity to resist construction loads in a stable manner.

In a steel structural system, noncomposite form deck one-way slab is the plate element supported by four-edged steel beams with unequaled stiffness. However, design criterion has analyzed the one-way slab as the continuous beam. Because the end beams that support the one-way slab have elastic supports t hat cause different deflections according to the support conditions and locations, the bending moments corresponding to the support ic support effect is not considered in the design criterion. Accordingly, to conduct a reasonable estimation of approximate moment coefficients considering the unequaled elastic support conditions, this study analyzes and estimates various models with varia bles for the ratios of live load to dead load and pattern arangements of live loads and span lengths. The analytical methods considering the finite three-dimensional plate element, the two-dimensional elastic support and the infinite stifnes suport are performed.

In this study, stiffened plates with open ribs are analyzed to estimate and formulate the local displacement and local moments according to square loading sizes. For the local behaviors of plates stiffened with rectangular and reverse T ribs, the ratio functions according to the dimensions of stiffened plates are obtained at each square loading size. Analytical results show that values of the basic stiffened plates are different but the ratio functions of each square loading size are similar and the difference of the ratio functions between rectangular ribs and reverse T ribs are small, so the ratio functions can be unified by integrating the loading sizes regardless of the rib type. The application of the unioned ratio functions to L type ribs and rectangular loading shows good accuracies. Therefore, the local behaviors of plates stiffened with open ribs can easily be obtained by using the unioned ratio functions proposed in this study.

A new damage detection technique using static displacement data was developed, in order to assess the structural integrity of bridge structures. In conventional damage assessment techniques using dynamic response, the variation of natural frequencies is intrinsically insensitive to the damage of the bridge: thus, it is usually difficult to obtain them from the measured data. The proposed detection method enables the estimation of the stiffness reduction of bridges using the static displacement data that are measured periodically, without requiring a specific loading test. Devices such as a laser displacement sensor can be used to measure static displacement data due to the dead load of the bridge structure. In this study, structural damage was represented by the reduction in the elastic modulus of the element. The damage factor of the element was introduced to estimate the stiffness reduction of the bridge under consideration. Likewise, the proposed algorithm was verified using various numerical simulations and compared with other damage detection methods. The effects of noise and number of damaged elements on damage detection were also investigated. Results showed that the proposed algorithm efficiently detects damage on the bridge.

In order to perform the spatial buckling and static analysis of the nonsymmetric thin-walled beam-column element, improved exact static stiffness matrices were evaluated using equilibrium equation and force-deformation relationships. This numerical technique was obtained using a generalized linear eigenvalue problem, by introducing 14 displacement parameters and system of linear algebraic equations with complex matrices. Unlike the evaluation of dynamic stiffness matrices, some zero eigenvalues were included. Thus, displacement parameters related to these zero eigenvalues were assumed as polynomials, with their exact distributions determined using the identity condition. The exact displacement functions corresponding to three loadingcases for initial stress-resultants were then derived, by consistently combining zero and nonzero eigenvalues and corresponding eigenvectors. Finally, exact static stiffness matrices were determined by applying member force-displacement relationships to these displacement functions. The buckling loads and displacement of thin-walled beam were evaluated and compared with analytic solutions and results using ABAQUS' shell element or straight beam element.

Reliability analysis of prestressed steel and concrete(PSSC) girders is conducted for deflection, stress and moment strength limit state. PSSC girder has strong advantages in terms of construction cost and vertical clearance for the span length of over 40 meters. In this paper, example PSSC girders with different span lengths, section dimensions and design stress levels are designed and analyzed to calculate the midspan deflection, stress and the section moment strength. Deflection limit state, stress limit state and strength limit state functions are assumed and the reliability indexes are obtained by Monte-Carlo simulation and Rackwitz-Fiessler procedure. The results show that the reliability of PSSC girder for deflection limit state is appropriately higher than the stress limit state and the reliability for moment strength is significantly conservative.

Member force, strain and stress distribution of a section are obtained for prestressed steel and concrete(PSSC) composite bridge subjected to dead and live load in order to interpret the effect of prestressing and deformation of tendon. The stress and strain distribution and moment capacity are obtained for both noncomposite and composite section and for allowable stress limit state, yield limit state and strength limit state. Reliability analysis is conducted after assuming limit states for deflection, stress and flexural strength. Comparing that the reliability index for stress is near 0 for example section which is designed to satisfy the allowable stress exactly, the reliability indexes for deflection and flexural strength are high. Reliability of PSSC girder which is designed based on allowable stress of bridge design code is high for deflection and flexural strength.

캔틸레버 공법으로 시공되는 프리스트레스트 콘크리트 박스거더 교량의 구조적 거동은 단계적 시공에 따른 구조물의 순차적 변화 및 콘크리트의 재료적 특성에 의해 시간 의존적 거동을 나타낸다. 콘크리트의 시간의존적 특성, 즉 콘크리트의 크리프 및 건조수축 특성은 현장타설 세그멘탈 캔딜레버공법으로 가설되는 콘크리트 교량의 설계 및 시공에서 매우 중요한 역할을 한다. 본 연구에서는 콘크리트의 크리프 및 건조수축 특성이 교량의 시간의존적 거동, 특히 처짐 및 텐던응력예측에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 교량해석은 본 연구진에 의해 개발된 프리스트레스트 콘크리트 교량해석기법 및 프로그램을 이용하여 크리프의 ACI 모델, CEB-FIB모델, 그리고 국내 도로교 시방서 모델을 고려하여 해석하였다. 해석결과 최종크리프 값의 크기에 따라 장기처짐의 발생량이 차이가 큰 것으로 나타나고 있으며, 최종건조수축량과 상대습도도 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 ACI 모델과 CEB-FIB모델간에도 차이가 큰 것으로 나타나 실제교량의 크리프 특성 및 건조수축 특성의 정확한 예측이 교량의 정밀시공 및 거동예측에 매우 중요한 것으로 나타나고 있다.

본 연구에서는 유한요소해석을 이용하여 차량속도 및 긴장재의 설계에 따른 CFTA 거더의 동적거동 및 동적증폭계수를 분석하였다. 긴장재의 해석변수로서는 긴장재의 양과 긴장력을 고려하였으며 차량하중은 도로교설계기준의 DB-24 하중을 선택하였다. 차량하중은 3축-2트랙에 작용하는 등가절점하중으로 변환하여 속도에 따라 시간함수로 모델링하였다. 긴장재의 양은 외측 �� 내측 덕트의 유무에 따라 변화시켰으며 긴장력은 설계긴장력의 0%에서 100%까지 25%씩 증가시켰다. 차량속도는 40km/hr에서 100km/hr까지 20km/hr씩 증가시켰으며, 해석결과 긴장재의 긴장력 변화는 거더의 동적거동에 영향을 주지 않았으며 초기처짐에만 영향을 주었다. 긴장재의 양에 따라서는 거더의 동적거동이 다르게 나타났으며 긴장재의 양이 적을 수록 동적처짐은 증가하였다. 이를 바탕으로 거더의 동적증폭계수(DAF)를 산출하였으며, 이 결과 긴장재가 없는 경우에도 도로교표준시방서에서 정한 기준 값보다 매우 작은 거동을 보였다.

Deflection and deformation occur easily in structures with long length, such as bridges and pipelines. Shape monitoring is required for ensuring their structural health. A fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor can be used for monitoring a large-scale structure because of its advantage of multiplexing. In this study, FBG sensors were used for monitoring a composite beam structure, and its strains were measured at multiple points. Thereafter, a shape estimation technique based on the strains was studied. Particularly, a three-dimensional shape estimation technique was proposed for accurate structural health monitoring. A simple experiment was conducted to verify the performance of the shape estimation technique. The result revealed that the estimated shape of the composite beam structure was in agreement with the actual shape obtained after the deformation of the specimen. Additionally, the deflection at a specific point was verified by comparing the estimated and actual deformations measured using a micrometer.
