High-speed railway bridges subject to effect of statical loads by temperature change as well as dynamic loads by interaction between vehicle load which run specially fast and behavior of bridges, If suitable longitudinal expansion by temperature change of bridge does not happened, it can cause unhealthy condition for the parts of bridges as well as can generate addition stress to bridges, For these reason, Analysis and Estimation of data about behavior of bridges occupies important factor in that estimate the remaining life of bridges and select the maintenance, repair and retrofit. In this paper, Analysis for the long-term behavior of bridges using Longitudinal displacement and Temperature data that is actuality measured data to the bridges of Seoul-Busan high speed railroad test section has been made.

The main objective of this paper is to propose the optimal design method of welded plate girder bridges using genetic algorithm. The objective function considered is the total weight of the welded plate girder. The behavior and design constraints are formulated based on the Korean Railroad Bridge Design Code and DIC Code. Continuous design variables are used to define the cross-sectional dimensions of the member. The GAs (genetic algorithm) is used to solve the nonlinear programming problem. Several examples of minimum weight design are solved to illustrate the applicability of the proposed minimization algorithm. From the results of application examples, the optimum design of welded plate girder is successfully accomplished. Therefore, the proposed algorithm in this paper may be used efficiently and generally for the optimum design of welded plate girders.

An active application of concrete track is being expected for the future construction of Korean railroad. For the successful concrete track construction and design in earthwork areas, the residual settlement should be reasonably estimated using the proper method. The concrete track is extremely vulnerable to the damage of residual settlement. However, at the transition areas such as bridge approach, differential settlement will likely occur due to difference of stiffness, poor drainage and poor ground treatment. The maintenance is very difficult for excessive settlement on existing line, it is need to constrain the residual settlement in step of design. In this paper, it is performed the analysis of the residual settlement measured data, test results and reference to understand the residual settlement behavior of concrete track roadbed

Railroad roadbed was consisted into structure types that earthwork, tunnel, bridge and joint sections. Joint section was affected a large factor confidence and safety of the train running by stiffness transition zone that track substructure stiffness change section as like between tunnel and earthwork from ballast track to concrete track. These problems are the results of increased dynamic wheel loads, which also lead to wear and tear on vehicle components and contribute to poor ride quality. The study presented in this paper was conducted on model test by using Wheel Moving Loading System.

In this study, we evaluated the chemical and physical properties of structural steel, which is the most basic material for steel structures and reinforcement concrete structures in modern period. We theorized the technical data for the research of technical history of modern heritage structures by analyzing the product system and its quality control of structural steel used in modern historical heritages. The results of this study are as follow; first, the rounded bars were used in most of modern heritage structures. But in the case of Waegwan railroad bridge, the deformed bars were used in spit of not using in Japan after the great earthquake of Kantou. Second, the structural steel was good in terms of quality control, but It has brittle properties because it was not manufactured by heat treatment process.

`Frost heave' is volumetric extension behavior of soil due to freezing. It could have a bad effect to foundations of infrastructures like building, road, railroad and bridge. Therefore, it is considered as a primary design parameter with 'adfreeze bond' and 'creep deformation' for foundation design in cold region. In some countries, studies for analyzing frost heave in many ways have being performed, however, only a few studies for evaluating frost susceptibility of soils by measuring frost heave rate of frozen soils in Korea. For analyzing frost heave as a foundation design parameter, both frost heaving rate and heaving pressure are should be addressed in study. Hence, in this study, development of experimental apparatus to evaluate frost heave and pressure is suggested.

케이블 정착구 검토를 위해서 사장교 전 체계를 모델링하는 것은 전체모델링 해석시 많은 노력과 시간이 요구되고 해석결과의 분석 또한 어려움이 많다. 따라서 문제가 예상되는 부분만을 국부 상세해석하여 구조적 거동을 정확히 파악하는 것이 필요하다. 케이블 정착부에는 여러 보강재들로 구성되어 있어 국부해석에 어려움이 있다. 따라서 실제와 가능한 한 근접하도록 모델링을 하고 전체 구조물의 거동을 국부 상세모델에 적적히 반영할 수 있도록 경계조건을 설정하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 부산 지하철 4호선의 아치형 사장교를 국내 범용 구조해석 프로그램인 MIDAS/CIVIL을 이용하여 아치리브와 거더정착구 모델링을 실시하였다. 해석 후 해석의 타당성을 검토하고 정착부의 안전성을 확보할 수 있는지 검토 분석 하고자 한다.

Variety of recent railroad markets arouses the need for steel sleepers. Steel sleepers have many advantages over conventional timber or PC sleepers with respect to safety, environment and economical efficiency due to less effort for maintenance. Weak points of timber sleepers are to cut trees and apply toxic creosote as well as to need frequent maintenances while it is difficult to apply PC sleepers to steel bridge or crossing and to recycle them completely. In this paper, technical trends are analyzed in order to develop suitable steel sleepers for domestic railroads.

The high speed train service will be offered for high-quality transport service in existing railway by Korean National Railroad(KNR). Therefore, this paper presents the results of analysis carried out to determine the dynamic response characteristics of deck plate girder bridges which are representative elevated structures of existing railway and to evaluate their suitabilities for supporting Korea Train Express(KTX) trainsets in the speed range 0-250 km/h. Their dynamic characteristics are analyzed concerning structural safety, train-operation safety and passenger comfort. The simplified method for 2-dimensional train/track/bridge interaction analysis is utilized in the analysis of dynamic behaviors of deck plate girder bridges.
