Based on the energy method considering the second order effects, the natural frequencies of externally prestressed simply supported beam and the compression softening effect of external prestress force were analyzed. It is concluded that the compression softening effect depends on the loss of external tendon eccentricity. As the number of deviators increases from zero to a large number, the compression softening effect of external prestress force decreases from the effect of axial compression to almost zero, which is consistent with the conclusion mathematically rigorously proven. The frequencies calculated by the energy method conform well to the frequencies by FEM which can simulate the frictionless slide between the external tendon and deviator, the accuracy of the energy method is validated. The calculation results show that the compression softening effect of external prestress force is negligible for the beam with 2 or more deviators due to slight loss of external tendon eccentricity. As the eccentricity and area of tendon increase, the first natural frequency of the simply supported beams noticeably increases, however the effect of the external tendon on other frequencies is negligible.

Due to deterioration of bridge, usually be using the external prestressing method among repair reinforcement method. But, there is much to be desired about a detailed account, almost it has analysed by cambers of girders, deflections of middle span and upper, bottom stresses of girders. Also, it is not examined closely that effect of internal prestress by external prestressing. The purpose of this study is confirmed the effect of internal tendons by external prestressing, estimation of additional external prestressing force and look for exact external prestressing force.

최근 교량설계에서 외부 프리스트레스를 도입한 장지간 및 효율적인 단면활용 등과 같은 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 강구조물에 프리스트레스를 도입하면 큰 하중에서 탄성변형의 극한값이 증가하게 되어, 강재량을 줄일 수 있고, 비용의 측면에서 경제성이 있는 것으로 평가 되었다. 이러한 이유 때문에 우리나라에서도 최근 가설교량 시공시 프리스트레스를 도입하여 응력보정 및 처짐보정이 가능하고, 비교적 작은 단면으로 장지간 교량을 시공할 수 있어 통수단면을 충분히 할 수 있는 여러 가지 공법이 개발되고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 가설 강교량에 프리스트레스 도입방법 및 고강도 텐던의 배치에 따른 영향, 강판과 고강도 텐던의 복합구조에 대한 효과를 기존 가설공법과 비교하여 검증 하고자 한다.

Precast R.C. slabs are being used widely for the construction of bridge structures due to their simplicity in construction processes. However, one of the disadvantages in precast R.C. slabs is the existence of transverse joints between two precast slabs. The transverse joints are structurally fragile and the task of strengthening the joints is difficult one due to their structural discontinuity. The aim of this study was to improve the behavior of transverse joints between precast R.C. slabs by introducing prestress with external cables. Three steel-concrete composite bridge specimens, which were prestressed with the external cables anchored on steel girders, were fabricated in the laboratory. Both pretension and post-tension methods were applied to introduce prestressing on the concrete slab with a straight tendon arrangement. Static tests were conducted at service load and ultimate load test was performed to evaluate punching shear capacity of the transverse joint. In this paper, two prestressing methods were tested and their effects were evaluated with respect to the elastic behavior and ultimate loading capacity of the transverse joints.

본 논문은 압축력 흡수장치를 사용하지 않은 프리스트레스 보강공법의 단점을 보완한 Bow 공법에 대한 연구이다. 본 논문의 목적은 장기 하중이 작용할 때 발생할 수 있는 프리스트레스의 손실 등에 대하여 분석하는 것이며, 또한 Bow 공법으로 보강한 부재의 성능 향상에 대한 자료를 제시하는 것이다. 이상의 목적을 달성하기 위하여 경간/깊이 비, 긴장재 양을 변수로 실험체를 제작하여 실험을 실시하였다. 그리고 장기 하중 재하 실험도 실시되었다. 실험결과에 의하면 Bow 공법은 현행의 설계규준을 적용하여 설계할 수 있음을 확인하였으며, 장기 하중 재하에 의하여도 구조적인 문제가 없는 것으로 확인하였다.

In a prestressed concrete bridge, the magnitude of the prestress force (PF) decreases with time. This unexpected loss can cause failure of a bridge which makes prestress force identification (PFI) critical to evaluate bridge safety. However, it has been difficult to identify the PF non-destructively. Although some research has shown the feasibility of vibration based methods in PFI, the requirement of having a determinate exciting force in these methods hinders applications onto in-service bridges. Ideally, it will be efficient if the normal traffic could be treated as an excitation, but the load caused by vehicles is difficult to measure. Hence it prompts the need to investigate whether PF and moving load could be identified together. This paper presents a synergic identification method to determine PF and moving load applied on a simply supported prestressed concrete beam via the dynamic responses caused by this unknown moving load. This method consists of three parts: (i) the PF is transformed into an external pseudo-load localized in each beam element via virtual distortion method (VDM); (ii) then these pseudo-loads are identified simultaneously with the moving load via Duhamel Integral; (iii) the time consuming problem during the inversion of Duhamel Integral is overcome by the load-shape function (LSF). The method is examined against different cases of PFs, vehicle speeds and noise levels by means of simulations. Results show that this method attains a good degree of accuracy and efficiency, as well as robustness to noise.

External pre-stressing strengthening method is the most popular way to strengthen concrete structures because of its efficiency and economic advantage. The laboratory test was performed to reinforce the slave bridge with the external tendon strengthening by longitudinally and transversally, which is concerned with formal feature of slave bridge, generally. Based on this test, anchoring device to strengthen the external tendon strengthening method was established and its strengthening effects were verified by evaluating the load bearing capacity.

This study is to develop a strengthening method for slab bridges with external prestressing. There are so many different strengthening methods for damaged slab bridges, external prestressing method is the most effective, economical and durable strengthening method among them. But, its problem lies in anchoring devices, so recently, an effective anchoring method was developed and showed its improvements. In this study, a more improved method is suggested. Longitudinal tendons placed on both side of slab strengthens the whole bridge, and lateral tendons placed under the slab strengthens the middle of slab, and conveys the load at middle slab to both sides. Structural analysis for the tensile force for strengthening were analysed. Generally, 200-280tons for longitudinal tendon and 130-190 tons for lateral tendons are good enough to strengthen the damaged slab. This method has no upward roof work, so it is very convenient for installing. And no spaces under the slab are need, so it is good for shallow slabs which has less space under the slab.

This study is to develop the end anchorage of external steel reinforcement of RC slab bridges. External prestress method using the existing steel is that When the anchorage is installed in slab end, a plenty of anchor bolts were required because the only tangential stress of anchor bolt received a tendon force. Then, for this reason, the wide end anchorage was required and the shape was complicate. But this reinforcement method using method that inserts anchor key at concrete surface cut a groove gets big internal force comparing to the anchorage using existing anchor bolt. Furthermore, the number of anchor bolt for installing apparently will be reduced, and the operation will be convenient because a small anchorage of a simple shape will be received a great tendon force
