Condition assessment and monitoring of bridges is critical for safe passenger travel, public transportation, and efficient freight. In monitoring, displacement measurement capability is important to keep track of performance of bridge, in part or as whole. One of the most important parts of a bridge is the expansion joint, which accommodates continuous cyclic thermal expansion of the whole bridge. Though expansion joint is critical for bridge performance, its inspection and monitoring has not been considered significantly because the monitoring requires long-term data using cost intensive equipment. Recently, a wireless smart sensor network (WSSN) has drawn significant attention for transportation infrastructure monitoring because of its merits in low cost, easy installation, and versatile on-board computation capability. In this paper, a rapid wireless displacement monitoring system, wireless hybrid sensor (WHS), has been developed to monitor displacement of expansion joints of bridges. The WHS has been calibrated for both static and dynamic displacement measurement in laboratory environment, and deployed on an in-service highway bridge to demonstrate rapid expansion joint monitoring. The test-bed is a continuous steel girder bridge, the Founders Bridge, in East Hartford, Connecticut. Using the WHS system, the static and dynamic displacement of the expansion joint has been measured. The short-term displacement trend in terms of temperature is calculated. With the WHS system, approximately 6% of the time has been spent for installation, and 94% of time for the measurement showing strong potential of the developed system for rapid displacement monitoring.

많은 나라에서 기 시공된 교량의 보수 보강에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있고 많은 보고서와 인쇄물에서 이에 대해 강조되고 있다. 국내의 1960년대와 1970년대 사이에 시공된 교량은 상대적으로 적은 차량크기, 속도, 중량으로 설계되어 현재의 교통조건에 부적절하다. 다소의 설계오류와 함께 이는 많은 교량의 여러 결함을 유발한다. 보수 보강의 한 방법으로 많은 잇점을 가진 external post-tension tendon을 사용하는 것이고 본 논문에서 external post-tension을 이용한 3경간 연속 합성교량의 보강방안에 대해 기술한다.

본 연구에서는 보강토교대로 지지된 슬래브교의 설계 활하중을 도로교설계기준(2010)의 DB-24와 도로교설계기준(한계상태설계법)(2015)의 KL-510으로 구조해석을 수행하였다. 구조해석 결과로부터 산정된 슬래브교의 반력과 보강토교대에 작용하는 접지압에 대해 비교검토를 수행하였다. 교대에 작용되는 반력은 교각의 유무와 개수에 따라 다르게 산정되었다. 단경간에 비해 연속교에서 교대에 작용되는 반력이 감소되는 것으로 나타났다. 구조해석 결과, 활하중보다는 고정하중에 의한 반력이 약 2배 이상 크게 산정되었으며, 활하중이 전체 반력에 미치는 영향이 상대적으로 작았다. 보강토교대에 작용하는 접지압은 단경간에서 가장 크게 산정되었다. 이동하중의 종류에 따른 영향은 상대적으로 크지 않았다. 따라서, 연속교에서 교대에 작용되는 반력과 접지압이 작게 산정되기 때문에, 단경간 교량보다는 연속 교량에 보강토교대를 적용하는 것이 유리한 것으로 판단되었다. 보강토교대에 작용되는 반력과 하중 분담률은 다양한 조건에 따라 달라지므로, 다양한 교량 형식과 제원에서의 접지압 검토가 향후 필요하다.

중. 소규모의 교량 설계시, 그가 가지고 있는 여러 가지 장점 때문에 연속 합성형 교량 형식을 채택하는 것이 점차 보편화되고 있는 실정이다. 그러나 콘크리트 슬래브에 프리스트레스를 가하지 않는 경우에는 교량 중앙 지점부의 부모맨트로 인하여 발생하는 콘크리트 슬래브의 균열을 설계시에 고려해야 한다. 이 논문에서는 기존에 제시된 두 가지 전단연결재 설계 방법에 대하여 탄.소성 유한요소해석법으로 비교 검토하였다. 그리고 부분합성이론을 소개하고 이 이론에 의한 이론적 엄밀해를 유도하였다. 합성정도에 따른 단순합성보와 연속합성보의 거동을 해석결과와 실험결과의 비교 분석을 통하여 부분합성이론을 강합성형교의 설계와 시공에 적용할 경우의 장단점을 검토하였다.

2span continuous Prestressed concrete girder railway bridges, span length 21m, 25m, 30m, 35m, that down-up method is applied and that designed to satisfy service load in accordance with design criteria of railway bridge can be dropped in their hight compared with existing simply supported prestressed concrete girder railway bridges. Continuous bridges result in guaranteeing safety against bending behavior by loading the practical railway moving load with each velocity. But the natural frequency of span length 21m is estimated not to satisfy recommended limitation of UIC 776-1R..

The track and bridge interaction should be considered for the safety check of railway bridge design as the longitudinal forces transmitted to rail and bridge are changed by longitudinal stiffness of bridge system. The longitudinal stiffness of bridge structures is determined by the magnitude of the ballast resistance, the expansion length of superstructure, and longitudinal stiffness of substructure including pier and foundations. In this study, the main factors affect on the longitudinal rail forces are discussed and the computational parametric analysis of rail forces considering rail-bridge interactions. And the required range of stiffness of sub-structures and span length for the assurance of safety of CWR(continuous welded rail) track is suggested.

The Extradosed PSC bridge is one of the best alternates which not only covers the longer span than PSC box girder and also performs the role of landmark facility with much cheaper cost than cable stayed bridge. Since the cable-stayed long span bridge is more flexible than general medium span bridges and railway bridges can be experienced resonance phenomenon by repeated equidistant axle loading of the train, it is inevitable to consider the dynamic behavior on impact, deflection and so on. In the present study, the dynamic behavior of an Extradosed PSC railway bridge subjected to moving train forces is analyzed. As well as trains which operate in conventional railway tines, KTX train is also considered. For the estimation of dynamic performances of the Extradosed PSC bridge, vertical deflection, accelerations of the slab, end rotation of the girder and impact on pylons and cables are discussed.

Jointless bridge is a new construction method applicable to bridge of short length. In the jointless bridge expansion of superstructure due to thermal effect was absorbed in the flexible pile-type abutment in stead of expansion joint in the conventional bridges. By removing expansion joint, it retards deterioration and extends life time of bridge. In this paper, jointless bridge of steel box girder type was studied through finite element analysis. Stress variations of superstructure and pile due to thermal effect was studied for the two span continuous integral bridge of 80m length and the results of analysis was presented.

Maintenance plays a critical role in the bridge industry, but actual practices show many limitations because of traditional, 2D-based information systems. It is necessary to develop a new generation of maintenance information management systems for more reliable decision making in bridge maintenance. Enhancing current work processes requires a BIM-based 3D digital model that can use information from the whole lifecycle of a project (design, construction, operation, and maintenance) through continuous exchanges and updates from each stakeholder. This study describes the development of a data scheme for maintenance of cable-stayed bridges. We implemented the proposed system for a cable-stayed bridge and discussed its effectiveness.

The PSC 2-span-continuous-bridge by Up-Down Method on construction process is used for this research. It is measured the strain of lower-steel-plate at continuous section on the active range of negative moment at the stage of introducing compressive stress to bottom-plate and compared with results of structural analysis. On the basis of these results, it is confirmed the introduced compressive stress tか bottom-plate. The object of this research is presenting the degree of continuity at the stage of lifting up process.
