Bridge decks are directly exposed to traffic loads and environmental conditions like rainfall water and de-icing chemicals. In this reason, there are often observed the deteriorations of asphalt overlay and concrete deck. In this study, 32 concrete decks were evaluated by the road inspection vehicle and the GPR mounted on the vehicle. The GPR could detect the deteriorations of concrete decks under asphalt overlay, even though the asphalt overlay looks like soundness. Therefore, for the efficient maintenance of concrete bridge decks, GPR examination should be performed with visual inspection.

The temperature variation of concrete pavement at early-age significantly affects the initiation and movement of joint cracks. For this analysis, we have built on IIA(Incheon International Airport) concrete pavement construction zone, and we measured the temperature and movement of the concrete slabs by using thermocouples, moisture sensors, V/W strain gages, and Demac discs. The analysis results showed that pavement's temperature significantly affected the joint movement. The widths of the joint cracks increased at evening and early in the morning when the temperature dropped but, those decreased in the day time when the temperature rose because of the effect of thermal expansion of the concrete slabs. The movements of the joints where the cracks never developed showed opposite trend to the cracked joints.

This study proposed mix proportions of early strength pavement concrete for large size area using calcium nitrate. Therefore, we used type III cement with calcium nitrate. Laboratory tests conducted to air content, slump loss test, setting time test, compressive strength test and flexural strength test. Our early strength pavement concrete mixture proportion proposed in this study for large size area attained the required compressive strength of 21 MPa and a flexural strength of 3.8 MPa, which allowed it to be opened to traffic within 8 hours. Based on test results, we suggested optimum mix proportions of early strength pavement concrete for large size area using calcium nitrate.

본 연구에서는 아스팔트 포장과 콘크리트 포장의 습윤시 교통사고 가능성을 비교하 였다. 다양한 노후도를 가진 두 포장재료에 대해 마찰력 측정장비(BPT, Britsh Pendulum Tester)로 건조 및 습윤상태에서 노면마찰력을 측정하였으며, 측정결과와 두 포장재료에 대 한 실제 교통사고율을 비교하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. (1) 노면 습윤 에 따른 마찰력 저하정도는 아스팔트 포장이 콘크리트 포장보다 컸다. (2) 노면 습윤에 따른 실제 교통사고율도 아스팔트 포장에서 훨씬 큰 것으로 나타나 (1)의 결론과 일관된 결과를 보여주었다. (3) 노면마찰력은 건조상태에서는 노면마모 정도에 크게 영향을 받지 않으나 일 단 습윤상태가 되면 노면마모가 심할수록 마찰력 저하폭이 큰 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, polysulfide epoxy polymer concrete was chosen as an ultra thin bridge deck overlay, and the effect of polymer concrete pavement on the fatigue stress range of the orthotropic steel deck was analyzed through the comparative analysis with epoxy asphalt pavement and SFRC pavement. Abaqus was used to estimate the fatigue stress range, and signed von-mises stress was used to estimate fatigue stress range according to pavement materials and thickness, considering there were multi axis stresses which have longitudinal and lateral direction on the welded parts of the steel deck.

Joint Spacing of Jointed Concrete Pavement has been uniformly designed and constructed as six-meter in Korea. However, engineering backgrounds to show the appropriateness of six-meter Joint Spacing has not been provided. In the on-going reseach of the development of Korea Pavement Reseach Program(KPRP), the optimum Joint Spacing is suggested as 6 to 8 meters according to the regional climatic conditions based on the mechanical-empirical analysis of short-term and long-term pavement distress. This study is a part of the investigation on the adequateness of Joint Spacing design specification suggested in KPRP. Joint Spacing was design and constructed as seven-meter Joint Spacing suggested as design specification in Korea Reseach Program(KPRP) and monitored the Load Transfer Efficiency(LTE), Random crack and compared with those of adjacent $6{\sim}7$ meter Joint Spacing concrete section.

A popular alternative to extend the life of aged pavement is asphalt overlay. However, it has a very serious and inherent shortcoming in deterring a reflection crack. Although joint-rehabilitation and stress-relief techniques have been applied to deter such reflection cracks in aged pavement, the techniques had a limited success only in slowing down the progress of a reflection crack. Rubblization technique rubblizes the concrete pavement slab in situ and uses the rubblized slab as the base material. Then, pavement overlay is applied to finish off the rehabilitation of aged pavement. This rubblization technique has the advantage of solving the problem of reflection cracking completely. When rubblization technique is applied, the upper layer of aged concrete pavement is rubblized between 40mm-70mm in depth. However, the lower layer is typically rubblized more than 100mm in depth. Nevertheless, it is difficult to turn the entire concrete pavement of more than 30cm in depth into rubblized aggregate of appropriate size. Thus, a simulation experiment was carried out to find the appropriate rubblized depth, which avoids the reflection cracking and still maintains the function of subbase, by varying the depth of rubblized depth in loom increments of 0cm, 10cm, and 20cm. The result indicated the optimum rubblized depth was 10cm (Lee, 2006). Additionally, a small rubblizinge equipment was developed in order to derive the rubblization technique appropriate for thick concrete pavement. This equipment was tested out on an experimental pavement, which was constructed with the same standard and specification for the road in actual use, by varying its rubblizing head shape and energy as well as the effective area of rubblization. This experiment led to a prototype equipment for rubblization of thick concrete pavement. The prototype was put into use on a highway, undergoing a test construction and monitoring afterwards. This entire process was necessary for the validation of the proposed rubblization technique.
