This paper deals with the applicability of long-gauge deformation fiber optic sensors (FOS) to prestressed concrete structures. A main motivation is the desire to monitor the deflection of the railway bridges without intervenes of the signal intensity fluctuations. A 25 m long, 1.8 m deep PSC girder was fabricated compositely with 22 cm thick reinforced concrete deck. Two pairs of 3 m long-gauge sensors are attached to the prestressed concrete girder with parallel topology. Using the relationship between curvature and vortical deflection and the quadratic regression of curvatures at the discrete point, it is possible to extrapolate the deflection curve of the girder. The estimated deflection based on the developed method is compared with the results using conventional strain gauges and LVDTS. It has been demonstrated that the proposed instrumentation technique is capable of estimating the vertical deflection and neutral axis position of the prestressed concrete girder up to weak nonlinear region.

현재의 교량설계기준에서는 연속거더교량에 대한 활하중 분배계수 규정에 대해 명확한 언급이 되어있지 않다. 따라서 이 논문의 목적은 단순교에 사용되는 시방서 규정 활하중 분배계수가 연속거더교에도 적용이 가능한지를 유한요소해석에 의해 검증하는 것이다. 연속거더교에 대한 활하중 분배의 영향을 검증하기 위해 5개의 공용중인 연속교에 대한 유한요소해석을 실행하였으며 그 결과 연속교에서 정모멘트 구역과 부모멘트 구역에서 활하중의 분배 형태는 매우 비슷하다는 결론을 내릴 수 있었다. 또한 처짐값의 비교에서 얻어진 활하중의 분배와 변형율에 기본한 활하중의 분배 양상의 차이가 거의 없는 것으로 나타났다. 해석 결과 현재 사용되고 있는 설계기준의 활하중 분배에 대한 규정은 연속거더교에 대해 매우 보수적이라고 판단된다.

최근 건설되는 교량은 철근 콘크리트 대신에 주로 프리스트레스트 콘크리트 교량이 주종을 이루고 있다. 프리스트레스 콘크리트 (PSC)는 철근 콘크리트 (RC)가 지니는 균열발생 문제, 철근의 부식, 누수 등 내구성에 미치는 약점을 보완할 수 있다. 또한 프리스트레싱으로 인한 인장영역의 보완으로 인하여 구조물의 크기를 줄일 수 있다. 하지만 이러한 구조용 주재료인 고강도 콘크리트의 경우는 밀도가 강도에 비하여 상대적으로 크기 때문에 상대적으로 자중을 증대시키는 문제가 있다. 따라서 자중을 감소시킬 수 있는 경량골재를 활용한 중공형 PPC 거더 (Hollowed Prefabricated Prestressed Concrete girder systems using Light Aggregate, 이하 HPPCLA)는 이러한 문제점을 해결할 수 있는 대안이 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 HPPCLA 거더의 성능시험 뿐 만 아니라 수치해석을 수행하였으며, 그 결과 HPPCLA 거더는 전형적인 휨파괴 형상을 나타내었다. 수치해석에서 예상한 바와 같이 PPC 거더의 사용하중인 110 kN에서는 완전한 탄성거동으로 구조물의 사용성에는 무리가 없을 것으로 판단된다.

The latest technical development of steel plate girder railway bridge are developing in ways to maximize its durability of materials in use of high strength steel and efficiency of maintenance and management by the introduction of simplified and standardization ideas. In addition to this, it is also expected to reduce the cost of bridge construction and to simplify the process of bridge manufacturing. Referring to this, composite few plate girder railway bridge is highly recommendable that is very economical with the fine exterior. In this paper, it will analyse the variation of dynamic behavior of existing composite few plate girder railway bridge with ballast caused by modified Slab Track through interpretation of limited enzyme in order to obtain the existing data for improvement of Slab Track system from Ballast Track system. Consequently, it can help maximize economic efficiency and structural capability. As a results, although the natural frequency by modified Slab Track are decreased, it is hardly influencing on the safety of railway bridges. It is also evident in the case of slab deck with a reduced scale in comparison with Ballast Track. Therefore, it is expected to reduce the cost of a railway bridge plan. And, it can expect the synergistic effect of the ensure long term durability of bridge caused by decreased stresses of bottom flange due to reduced dead load. As a result, the analytical study are carried out to investigate the composite few plate girder railway bridge could be the optimal design method for the dynamic safety of a girder section.

With the advent of computer, the finite element method has become a most powerful numerical method for structural analysis. However, bridge designers are reluctant to use it in their designs because of its complex nature and its being time consuming in the preparation of the input data and analyzing the results. This paper describes the development of a computer based finite element model using the idea of eccentric beam elements for the analysis of slab-on-girder bridges. The proposed method is supported by a laboratory test using a reinforced concrete bridge model. Other bridge analytical schemes are also introduced and compared with the proposed method. The main aim of the comparison is to prove the effectiveness of the shell and eccentric beam modelling in the studies of lateral load distribution of slab-on-girder bridges. It is concluded that the proposed finite element method gives a closer to real idealization and its developed computer program, SHECAN, is also very simple to use. It is highly recommended to use it as an analytical tool for the design of slab-on-girder bridges.

In the railway bridges, steel plate girder types are preferred due the high stability. Nevertheless, it has been pointed out that this type of bridge has problems such as, structural damages in the rail and girder seat, noise problem due to impact at the rail joint and excessive vibration. This vibration and/or deflection are mainly because insufficient stiffness of steel plate type of bridge. To resolve these problems, PC-Slab composite plate girder type which has simple process and economic cost, is proposed in this study. The static and dynamic experiment is performed by using the production of actual sized PC-Slab and abandoned steel plate girder. The object of this experiment is to verify the fact that girder stiffness increase and structural safety. The result of the experiment is used to analyze the effect of performance improvement of PC composite plate girder type. Using this method, economic rail maintainers, girder stiffness increase, and also speed/ride improvement even for existing rail could be expected by dynamic performance improvement. Additionally noise due to impact, deflection and vibration caused from long rails can be reduced.

본 논문에서는 강상자형교의 바닥판과 주형에 대한 생애주기비용(Life-Cycle Cost : LCC)를 고려한 최적설계 방법을 제안하였다. 생애주기비용의 최적설계 문제는 초기비용, 유지관리비용 그리고 강도와 처짐 그리고 균열에 대한 파손 기대비용의 최소화 문제로 정식화할 수 있다. 기존의 재래적인 설계방법과의 비교를 동해서 강상자형교의 생애주기비용 최적설계의 우수성을 입증하였다. 또한 수치적인 결과의 고찰을 통하여 LCC에 근거한 최적설계가 여타의 설계방법들보다 좀 더 합리적이고 경제적이며 안전한 설계를 유도하는 것으로 분석되었다.

Tensairity girder is a light weight inflatable fabric structural concept which can be used in road emergency transportation. It uses low pressure air to stabilize compression elements against buckling. With the purpose of obtaining the comprehensive target of minimum deflection and weight under ultimate load, the cross-section and the inner pressure of tensairity girder was optimized in this paper. The Variable Complexity Modeling (VCM) method was used in this paper combining the Kriging approximate method with the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) method, which was implemented by ABAQUS. In the Kriging method, the sample points of the surrogate model were outlined by Design of Experiment (DOE) technique based on Optimal Latin Hypercube. The optimization framework was constructed in iSIGHT with a global optimization method, Multi-Island Genetic Algorithm (MIGA), followed by a local optimization method, Sequential Quadratic Program (SQP). The result of the optimization gives a prominent conceptual design of the tensairity girder, which approves the solution architecture of VCM is feasible and efficient. Furthermore, a useful trend of sensitivity between optimization variables and responses was performed to guide future design. It was proved that the inner pressure is the key parameter to balance the maximum Von Mises stress and deflection on tensairity girder, and the parameters of cross section impact the mass of tensairity girder obviously.

Although just developed in recent years, curved box girder has widely used in modern highway system due to their load resistance capacity as well as aesthetic considerations. According to recent literature reviews on curved box girder designs, distortional load was not considered as much as it deserves to be. In practice, the effect of distributional force is very small in straight bridge systems but yet unknown how it is in curved bridge systems. For the reason, this paper will show up an extensive parametric study on distortional behavior of curved box girder with trapezoidal section. Based on Dabrowski formulas, using finite element method, various bridges were investigated. In this study, following parameters will be included: span length, curvature radius, section height, section width, and internal section angle (web slope). From the obtained results, some initial geometric parameters are proposed for curved box girder bridges.
