본 연구에서는 신뢰성 개념을 도입하여 최근 10년간의 한국도로공사 관할의 교량부재별의 유지보수 이력 데이터를 기반으로 적합한 모수적 수명 분포를 찾고 최대우도법으로 구해진 모수를 이용하여 교량 부재별 평균수명 및 신뢰도를 산정하는 방안을 제안하였다. 교량 부재별의 수명 데이터를 가장 잘 설명하는 모수적 수명 분포형태를 찾기 위해 많이 활용되는 지수분포, 와이블분포, 대수정규분포를 대상으로 분석한 결과 대수정규분포와 와이블분포가 해당 수명 데이터의 특성을 가장 잘 설명하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 때 모수 추정을 위해서 최대우도법을 사용하였으며, 적합성 검정을 위해서는 AD통계량을 이용하였다. 추정된 모수를 기반으로 교량 부재별 평균수명을 산정한 결과, 강교도장이 18.51년으로 가장 길었으며, 바닥판이 17.56년으로 그 다음 순이었다. 배수시설과 교량받침의 경우 평균수명이 각각 12.27년, 12.57년으로 가장 짧았다. 또한 교량의 평균수명일 때 추정된 신뢰도 지표는 현재 교량 부재별 유지보수 시점이라고 할 수 있다. 교량받침, 바닥판, 하부구조, 배수시설의 경우 다른 부재보다 빠른 시기에 유지보수를 하는 것으로 분석되었다.

A new cable-supported bridge model consisting of suspension parts, self-anchored cable-stayed parts and earth-anchored cable-stayed parts is presented. The new bridge model can be used for suspension bridges, cable-stayed bridges, cable-stayed suspension bridges, and partially earth-anchored cable-stayed bridges by varying parameters. Based on the assumption that each structural member is in either an axial compressive or tensile state, and the stress in each member is equal to the allowable stress of the material, the material quantity for each component is calculated. By introducing the unit cost of each type of material, the estimation formula for the cost of the new bridge model is developed. Numerical examples show that the results from the estimation formula agree well with that from the real projects. The span limit of cable supported bridge depends on the span-to-height ratio and the density-to-strength ratio of cables. Finally, a parametric study is illustrated aiming at the relations between three key geometrical parameters and the cost of the bridge model. The optimization of the new bridge model indicates that the self-anchored cable-stayed part is always the dominant part with the consideration of either the lowest total cost or the lowest unit cost. It is advisable to combine all three mentioned structural parts in super long span cable supported bridges to achieve the most excellent economic performance.

Structural health monitoring of steel truss bridge based on changes in modal properties was investigated in this study. Vibration measurements with five sensors were conducted at an existing Warren truss bridge with partial fractures in diagonal members before and after an emergency repair work. Modal properties identified by the Eigensystem Realization Algorithm showed evidences of increases in modal damping due to the damage in diagonal member. In order to understand the dynamic behavior of the bridge and possible mechanism of those increases in modal damping, theoretical modal analysis was conducted with three dimensional frame models. It was found that vibrations of the main truss could be coupled internally with local vibrations of diagonal members and the degree of coupling could change with structural changes in diagonal members. Additional vibration measurements with fifteen sensors were then conducted so as to understand the consistency of those theoretical findings with the actual dynamic behavior. Modal properties experimentally identified showed that the damping change caused by the damage in diagonal member described above could have occurred in a diagonal-coupled mode. The results in this study imply that damages in diagonal members could be detected from changes in modal damping of diagonal-coupled modes.

This paper presents the solution scheme of using the continuous formulation of 1-D linear member for the dynamic analysis of structures consisting of axially loaded members. The context describes specific applications of such scheme to the verification of experimental data obtained from field test of bridges carried out by a microwave interferometer system and velocimeters. Attention is focused on analysis outlines that may be applicable to in-situ assessment for cable-stayed bridges. The derivation of the dynamic stiffness matrix of a prismatic member with distributed properties is briefly reviewed. A back calculation formula using frequencies of two arbitrary modes of vibration is next proposed to compute the tension force in cables. Derivation of the proposed formula is based on the formulation of an axially loaded flexural member. The applications of the formulation and the proposed formula are illustrated with a series of realistic examples.

This paper attempts to develop the analytical model of estimating the fatigue damage using a linear elastic fracture mechanics method. The stress history on a welding member, when a truck passed over a bridge, was defined as a block loading and the crack closure theory was used. These theories explain the influence of a load on a structure. This study undertook an analysis of the stress range frequency considering both dead load stress and crack opening stress. A probability method applied to stress range frequency distribution and the probability distribution parameters of it was obtained by Maximum likelihood Method and Determinant. Monte Carlo Simulation which generates a probability variants (stress range) output failure block loadings. The probability distribution of failure block loadings was acquired by Maximum likelihood Method and Determinant. This can calculate the fatigue reliability preventing the fatigue failure of a welding member. The failure block loading divided by the average daily truck traffic is a predictive remaining life by a day. Fatigue reliability analysis was carried out for the welding member of the bottom flange of a cross beam and the vertical stiffener of a steel box bridge by the proposed model. Results showed that the primary factor effecting failure time was crack opening stress. It was important to decide the crack opening stress for using the proposed model. Also according to the 50% reliability and 90%, 99.9% failure times were indicated.

PC 세그멘탈교량은 경간장이 매우 큰 경우를 제외하고는 세그멘트 생산의 경제성을 위하여 교량 전체가 일정한 높이를 갖는 것이 일반적이며, 단면의 강성변화를 위해서는 단면의 내부치수를 조정하는 것이 보통이다. 구조물의 예비설계단계에서는 과거의 경험이나 근사적인 단면력에 의하여 단면을 선택하는 것이 일반적이므로, 균일 높이를 갖는 PC 콘크리트교량의 예비설계단계에서의 단면력 산정지침을 위하여 강성이 다른 세가지 교량모델을 택하여 휨강성이 단면력에 주는 영향을 검토하였다. 교량모델의 휨강성은 실제적으로 사용가능한 단면을 경간장과 함께 분석하여 얻은 Flexibility Index로 결정하였다.

교량은 사용년한이 증가함에 따라 노후화로 인해 역학적인 성질과 구조적인 성능이 저하되고, 이로 인해서 강진 시에 내진성능이 저하된다. 교각과 교량받침에 대한 노후화를 몇 가지 단계로 정량화하여 해석모델에 반영하였고, 노후화된 교각과 교량받침에 대하여 부재-수준의 지진취약도를 평가하였다. 교량 시스템의 파괴 메카니즘을 직렬시스템으로 가정하여, 부재-수준의 지진취약도 해석 결과로부터 시스템-수준의 지진취약도를 평가하는 방법을 제안하였다. 노후도에 취약한 부재인 교각과 교량받침에 대하여 5가지 정량적인 노후도(0, 5, 10, 25, 40%)를 가정하여 부재-수준의 지진취약도를 평가하였고, 이 결과로부터 시스템-수준의 지진취약도 평가를 수행하였다. 시스템-수준의 지진취약도는 교량받침 보다는 교각이 지배적인 영향을 줌을 알 수 있었다. 이는 보다 취약한 구조부재의 지진취약도가 전체 교량시스템의 지진취약도에 지배적인 영향을 주는 것을 의미한다.

After measuring actual stress by two measurements(Dynamic Strain Meter, Histogram Recorder) on truss rail road bridge, we could perform time history analysis by 3-D beam element method on modelling bridge. And then, after analyzing bridge structure in static by 3-D modelling, we estimated degree of fatigue damage in main member, secondary member of tie zone, cutting area of base metal cross section for confirming the result. In case that the simulated stress is carried out on modeling bridge, most of those simulation mainly is performed by main members. But in real bridge fatigue damage problems generally caused by junctions, connections, joints in which especially local stress is activated. Therefore, in this paper actual stress on critical area was estimated through the analysis result by simulation. With this study, we can estimate the degree of fatigue damage from a safety point of view and comparative accuracy.

Natural periods are usually determined by the so-called linearized finite displacement theory even for a suspension bridge. This linearized method, with formulating structural stiffness by taking dead-load tension into consideration, calculates the natural periods of the bridge. As a result, the assumed initial tensions for each cable member may affect the accuracy of calculated natural periods and some other dynamic responses. This paper mainly demonstrates the effect of initially introduced tension accuracy on the evaluation of dynamic characteristics for a suspension bridge.

CFT 구조는 강재 또는 철근콘크리트로 이루어진 일반 구조용 부재와 비교해서 많은 이점을 가진다. 강재 박스와 콘크리트의 구속효과에 의한 전체구조물의 연성도, 강성 및 하중지지능력의 증가 때문에 CFT 구조는 기둥 부재에 광범위하게 적용되고 있다. 이러한 CFT 구조의 장점들 때문에 최근들어 CFT 부재는 거더부재로 교량구조물에 확대 적용되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 CFT 구조, 아치형상 및 긴장재로 이루어진 CFTA 거더교의 해석모델을 개발하고 이를 적용한 설계법을 제안하기 위함이다.
