지진이나 바람과 같은 횡방향 하중이 가해졌을 때, 일반적으로 수직한 촉에 대해서만 대칭인 단면을 갖는 교량의 주형에는 횡방향 휨에 결합된 비틂이 유발되어 특히 사장교의 케이블등에는 예상치 못했던 추가응력이 유발될 수 있다. 이러한 거동은 일반적인 뼈대요소로는 해석할 수 없으므로, 임의의 단면 형상을 갖는 기하학적 비선형 3차원 뼈대요소를 사용하여야 한다. 본 연구에서 사용한 뼈대요소의 이론적인 배경과 검증은 이전에 발표된 논문에 수록되어 있다. 본 논문에서는 주형단면의 비대칭성을 고려한 지진해석을 수행하여 휨-비틂 결합작용에 의한 거동을 연구한다.

The effect of mean angle of wind attack on the flutter critical wind speed of two generic bridge deck cross-sections, viz, one closed box type streamlined section (deck-1) and closed box trapezoidal bluff type section with extended flanges/overhangs (deck-2) type of section have been studied using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) based forced vibration simulation method. Owing to the importance of the effect of the amplitude of forcing oscillation on the flutter onset, its effect on the flutter derivatives and flutter onset have been studied, especially at non-zero mean angles of wind attack. The flutter derivatives obtained have been used to evaluate flutter critical wind speeds and flutter index of the deck sections at non-zero mean angles of wind attack studied and the same have been validated with those based on experimental results reported in literature. The value of amplitude of forcing oscillation in torsional degree of freedom for CFD based simulations is suggested to be in the range of 0.5° to 2°, especially for bluff bridge deck sections. Early onset of flutter from numerical simulations, thereby conservative estimate of occurrence of instability has been observed from numerical simulations in case of bluff bridge deck section. The study aids in gaining confidence and the extent of applicability of CFD during early stages of bridge design, especially towards carrying out studies on mean incident wind effects.

본 연구에서는 60 m 급의 장경간 PSC 거더의 개발을 위하여 단면 개선부터 텐던 배치 형상까지 구조적인 성능뿐만 아니라 경제성과 시공성 등을 고려해가며 거더 개발에 관한 연구를 진행하였다. 단면 최적화를 통해 Bulb-T 형의 단면을 도출하였고 단면 평가를 통해 실제 설계 가능성을 평가하였다. 또한 텐던의 배치를 효율적으로 구성하여 사용하중에 대해 효과적으로 대처할 수 있도록 하였다. 실제 대상교량을 선정한 후 개발 거더를 적용해 유한요소해석을 수행한 결과, 모든 하중단계에서 설계 허용응력을 만족하였다. 또한 사용하중에 의해 발생하는 응력이 허용하중보다 작아 안전측 설계가 가능한 것으로 나타났다. 이를 바탕으로 실물 크기의 60 m 거더를 제작해 4점 실험을 실시한 결과 초기 균열이 사용하중의 2배 이상에서 발생하여, 실험 결과를 통해서도 충분한 구조적 성능을 입증하였다. 본 연구를 통해 개발된 Half-Decked PSC 형식의 60 m 거더는 단면개선과 효율적인 텐던 배치로 경간대비 매우 낮은 형고를 갖게 되었고, 구조적인 이점은 물론 경제성이나 시공성 등에서도 큰 장점을 가질 것으로 판단된다.

The prediction of multimode flutter relies, to a larger extent than bimodal flutter, on accurate modeling of the self-excited forces since it is challenging to perform experimental validation by using aeroelastic tests for a multimode case. This paper sheds some light on the accuracy of predicted self-excited forces by comparing numerical predictions of self-excited forces with measured forces from wind tunnel tests considering the flutter vibration mode. The critical velocity and the corresponding flutter vibration mode of the Hardanger Bridge are first determined using the classical multimode approach. Then, a section model of the bridge is forced to undergo a motion corresponding to the flutter vibration mode at selected points along the bridge, during which the forces that act upon it are measured. The measured self-excited forces are compared with numerical predictions to assess the uncertainty involved in the modeling. The self-excited lift and pitching moment are captured in an excellent manner by the aerodynamic derivatives. The self-excited drag force is, on the other hand, not well represented since second-order effects dominate. However, the self-excited drag force is very small for the cross-section considered, making its influence on the critical velocity marginal. The self-excited drag force can, however, be of higher importance for other cross-sections.

본 연구에서는 변장비 70에 가까운 도전적인 현수교 단면을 개발하는데 목적을 두고 있다. 이를 위하여 먼저 강박스 현수교의 제원을 수집 분석하였다. 그 결과를 보면 강박스 현수교에서 경간장과 형상변수(교폭, 형고, 변장비, 고폭비)는 상관관계가 낮았고 고유진동수와 형상변수의 상관관계도 낮은 것으로 나타났으며, 상관관계가 높은 경간장과 고유진동수 관계는 신뢰구간별 추정식을 제시하였다. 그리고 교폭, 진동수비, 질량, 질량관성모멘트, 수직 및 비틈 고유진동수 변화에 따른 플러터 풍속의 민감도 분석을 실시하였는데, 타 변수보다 비틈 고유진동수가 플러터 풍속에 미치는 영향이 가장 큰 것으로 나타났다. 주경간장 1111 m인 현수교의 내풍 단면을 개발하기 위하여 최소 단면폭과 형고를 제약조건으로 하여 총 30개의 단면에 대한 풍동실험을 실시하고, 이로부터 한계풍속 기준을 충분히 만족하는 단면을 찾았다. 그리고 다중모드 플러터 해석으로 개발한 단면의 내풍안정성을 검증하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 세장 단면은 향후 장대 현수교 설계시 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The construction of segmental precast concrete bridge is an increase due to its superior performance and economic advantages. This type of bridge is appropriate for spans within 30 to 150 m (100 to 500 ft), known as mega-projects and the design optimization would lead to considerable economic benefits. A box-girder cross section superstructure of balanced cantilever construction method is assessed here. The depth of cross section, (variable along the span linearly), bottom flange thickness, and the count of strands are considered as design variables. The optimum design is characterized by geometry, serviceability, ductility, and ultimate limit states specified by AASHTO. Genetic algorithm (GA) is applied in two fronts: as to the saving in construction cost 8% and as to concrete volume 6%. The sensitivity analysis is run by considering different parameters like span/depth ratio, relation between superstructure cost, span length and concrete compressive strength.

Recently, the railroad route plan is trying to minimize the damage of the local resident which is caused by railroad construction. For this reason, reducing the banking height of soil roadbed, lowering the bridge girder height of a solid intersection and a part of cross river, the through bridge type which can achieve a required span length must apply. The representative through bridges of railroad are arch bridges, truss bridges and plate girder bridges, the through plate girder bridge of variable section can apply that the span length of these bridges is about $30{\sim}50m$, namely, middle span length bridge types, and that can satisfy structural capacity and beauty of railroad at the same time. This paper introduces plan and design process of the Su-eo cheon bridge applied by a through plate girder bridge type of the Jinju-Gwangyang double track 6th construction ordered at Korea Rail network Authority in 2005.

In seismic design, hollow section concrete columns offer advantages by reducing the weight and seismic mass compared to concrete section RC bridge columns. However, the flexure-shear behavior and spirals strain of hollow section concrete columns are not well-understood. Octagonal RC bridge columns of a small-scale model were tested under cyclic lateral load with constant axial load. The volumetric ratio of the transverse spiral hoop of all specimens is 0.00206. The test results showed that the structural performance of the hollow specimen, such as the initial crack pattern, initial stiffness, and diagonal crack pattern, was comparable to that of the solid specimen. However, the lateral strength and ultimate displacement of the hollow specimen noticeably decreased after the drift ratio of 3%. The columns showed flexure-shear failure at the final stage. Analytical and experimental investigations are presented in this study to understand a correlation confinement steel ratio with neutral axis and a correlation between the strain of spirals and the shear resistance capacity of steel in hollow and solid section concrete columns. Furthermore, shear strength components (V_c, V_s·, V_p) and concrete stress were investigated.

The seismic vulnerability analysis of multi-span bridges can be based on the response of the piers, provided that deck, bearings and foundations remain elastic. The lateral response of an RC bridge pier can be affected by different mechanisms (i.e., flexure, shear, lap-splice or buckling of the longitudinal reinforcement bars, second order effects). In the literature, simplified formulations are available for mechanisms different from the flexure. On the other hand, the flexural response is usually calculated with a numerically-based Moment-Curvature diagram of the base section and equivalent plastic hinge length. The goal of this paper is to propose a simplified analytical solution to obtain the Moment-Curvature relationship for hollow circular RC sections. This based on calibrated polynomials, fitted against a database comprising 720 numerical Moment-Curvature analyses. The section capacity curve is defined through the position of 6 characteristic points and they are based on four input parameters: void ratio of the hollow section, axial force ratio, longitudinal reinforcement ratio, transversal reinforcement ratio. A case study RC bridge pier is assessed with the proposed solution and the results are compared to a refined numerical FEM analysis, showing good match.

This study is to give more accurate information by performing the time depend ent analysis to take into account the long-term losses of precast PSC concrete bridge and analyzing the second stress, final camber and cross section stress of precast PSC caused by creep and drying shrinkage. As time goes by, the stress and deformation in the cross section vary continuously by the influence of creep and drying shrinkage. Due to this, the stress redistribution occurs and the internal force variation also happens along the point on the same cross section and with the passage of time.
