현재 국내에서는 기존에 사용되었던 안정성 위주인 사양중심의 설계(prescriptive code)에서 구조물의 성능을 고려하여, 인명피해 뿐 아니라 구조물의 기능도 설계의 감안요소로 하는 성능 기반 설계기준(Performance-based design)이 도입되고 있는 추세이다. 본 연구에서는 일본 토목학회(JSCE), 캘리포니아 도로연방국(Caltrans), 유럽코드(Eurocode 8), 뉴질랜드 교량설계(NZ code)에서 어떤 식으로 성능기반 설계기준을 제시하고 있으며, 각 국가 간의 성능(performance)과 레벨(performance level)에 대한 접근 방식을 비교하고 국내의 성능기반 설계 도입의 필요성에 대해 논하는데 그 목적이 있다.

LB-DECK, a precast concrete panel type, is a permanent concrete deck form used as a formwork for cast-in-place concrete pouring at bridge construction site. LB-DECK consists of 60 mm thick concrete slab and 125 mm height Lattice-girders partly embedded in the concrete slab. These decks have been applied to the bridges, which girder spacings are short enough to resist longitudinal cracking caused by construction loads. This paper presents experimental research work conducted to evaluate the cracking load of LB-DECKs designed for long span bridge decks. Twenty four non-composite beams and four composite beams are fabricated considering three design variables of thickness of concrete slab, height of lattice-girder, and diameter of top-bar. Static loads controlled by displacements are applied to test beams to obtain cracking and ultimate loads. Vertical displacements at the center of beams, strains of top-bar, crack propagation in concrete slab, and final failure modes are carefully monitored. The obtained cracking loads are compared to the analytical results obtained by elastic analyses. Long-term analyses using age-adjusted effective modulus method (AEMM) are also conducted to investigate the effects of concrete shrinkage on the cracking loads. Based on the test results, the tensile strength and the design details of LB-DECKs are discussed to prevent longitudinal cracking of long span bridge decks.

The risk of transverse cracking in concrete decks of composite bridges is affected by many factors related to the bridge design, materials, and construction. Among others, the thermal and shrinkage stresses are the most important factors that affect the transverse cracking in early-age concrete decks. The thermal stress at the concrete deck is mainly affected by both ambient temperature and solar radiation. The shrinkage stress at the general strength concrete deck is mainly affected by drying shrinkage and the high strength concrete deck is mainly affected by autogeneous shrinkage. Three-dimensional finite element models of composite bridges were made to investigate the stress due to thermal and shrinkage stress.

The flexural and horizontal shear behavior of overlaid concrete slabs with polymer interface is investigated in the present study. An experimental program was set up and several series of overlaid concrete slabs have been tested to study the effect of different surface preparations and dowel bars between old slab and overlay under service and ultimate loads. 'The cracking and ulti mate load behavior for various cases including acryl emulsion treatment and doweled joints has been studied. The present study indica.tes that the overlaid concrete slabs behave integrally with existing bottom slabs up to ultimate range for rough and doweled joints with polymer interface. The pres ent study provides a firm base for the realistic design of two-layered RC slabs in bridges.

Bridges which are components of road network consume large amounts of resources such as concrete and steel materials, which have large environmental impacts during construction. This causes a great environmental burden. In order to reduce the environmental impact caused by the construction of the bridge, the environmental impact should be reviewed based on reasonable data in the early design stage. The purpose of this study is to provide basic data for LCA-based environmental impact assessment in the process of selecting bridge type in the early design stage. For this purpose, design data for four types of PSC bridges (general PSC girder, IPC girder, e-Beam, DR girder) were collected and LCA was performed to analyze the basic unit value and impact factors of environmental load. The results of the analysis showed that the environmental impact of IPC girder was the smallest, and the environmental impact of e-Beam was 133.7% higher than that of IPC girder. In addition, concrete, reinforcement, PC strand, square timber, sheath pipe, and steel plate were derived as the main factors that generate 98.5% of the overall environmental impact of PSC girder.

The application of 40MPa high strength concrete was accepted as a goal for improving durability and reducing column's section in concrete bridge piers. As a result of applying 40MPa high strength concrete, it could be achieved that column diameter and coping height were reduced into 0.6m, 0.4m, respectively. And crack by heat evolution of hydration did not generate, because of a careful quality and curing control of high strength concrete.

PSC-I girder is widely used in designing bridge. Currently partial advanced country have constructed bridge with high strength concrete, while in-country rather less concrete strength(40MPa) has been used to build bridge girder. So, this paper presents characteristics and behavior of member casted by high strength concrete to apply practically. For this aim, 4 girders were fabricated to investigate performance and structural behavior. Prior to test, structural analysis was performed with common program. Steel gages and concrete gage were filled up to measure longitudinal and vertical strain of reinforcement and concrete. Linear Variable Differential Transducer and concrete surface gage were also set to measure deflection and strain of concrete. Load-deflection relation and crack mode were analyzed at transfer and test and compared with the structural analysis
