This paper presents a type of composite box girder with corrugated webs and concrete filled steel tube slab to overcome cracking on the web and reduce self-weight. Utilizing corrugated steel web improves the efficiency of prestressing introduced into the top and bottom slabs due to the accordion effect. In order to understand the loading capacity of such new composite structure, experimental and numerical analyses were conducted. A full-scale model was loaded monotonically to investigate the deflection, strain distribution, loading capacity and stiffness during the whole process. The experimental results show that test specimen has enough loading capacity and ductility. Based on experimental works, a finite element (FE) model was established. The load-displacement curves and stress distribution predicted by FE model agree well with that obtained from experiments, which demonstrates the accuracy of proposed FE model. Moreover, simplified theoretical analysis was conducted depending on the assumptions which were confirmed by the experimental and numerical results. The simplified analysis results are identical with the tested and numerical results, which indicate that simplified analytical model can be used to predict the loading capacity of such composite girder accurately. All the findings of present study may provide reference for the application of such structure in bridge construction.

The objectives of this paper is to analyze the reinforced concrete structures by using fiber model. In this study, the fiber modeling techniques including modeling of support conditions are studied. In order to verify the modeling techniques, analysis results obtained for reinforced concrete cantilever beam and reinforced concrete T-girder bridge under cyclic loading are compared with experimental results from full scale test. From the comparison, it is shown that the modeling techniques in this study can be well applied to the nonlinear failure analysis of reinforced concrete structures with porper modifications.

Resonance of railroad bridge can be broken out when natural frequency of the bridge coincides with exciting frequency of moving forces. In order to avoid aforementioned unpleasant response of the structure, exact determination of dynamic structural properties is important to understand dynamic behavior of the structure under moving train loads. In the present paper, a 25 meters long full scale IPC girder and 15m Precom girder models were fabricated as a test specimen and modal testing was carried out to evaluate modal parameters including natural frequencies and modal damping ratios. In the modal testing, a digitally controlled vibration exciter as well as an impact hammer is applied to obtain frequency response functions more exactly and the modal parameters are evaluated varying with structural status.

본 논문은 공용년수가 오래되어 노후화된 철근콘크리트 교량의 파괴가지의 거동에 예측하기 위한 비선형 파괴해석 모델링 기법이 개발에 관한 연구이다. 본 논문에서는 비선형파괴해석을 위해철근부식으로 인하여 철근주변 콘크리트의 열화를 고려한 인장경화모델을 제안하였으며 교량의 노후화된 지점조건을 고려할 수 있는 지점 모델링 기법을 제안하였다. 제안된 모델을 사용하여 반복하중을 받는 노후화된 철근콘크리트 T형 교량이 파괴될 때까지의 2차원 및 3차원 파괴해석을 수행하였으며 파괴시험으로부터 분석된 교량의 파괴거동과 비교하였다. 해석결과와 실험결과의 비교로부터 본 논문의 모델링기법이 노후화된 교량의 파괴해석에 유용하게 사용될 수 있으며 노후화된 지점조건의 모델링이 교량의 강도평가에 매우 큰 영향을 주는 것을 규명하였다.

As an alternative of conventional prestressed concrete (PSC) girders, various types of PSC girders are being developed and applied in bridge structures. Incrementally prestressed concrete girder is one of these newly developed girders. According to design concept, these new types of PSC girders have considerable advantages to reduce their self-weight and make spans longer. However, dynamic interaction between bridge superstructures and passing trains would be sometimes one of critical issues in these more flexible railway bridges. Therefore, it is very important to evaluate modal parameters of newly designed bridges before conducting dynamic analyses. In the present paper, a 25 meters long full scale PSC girder was fabricated as a test specimen and modal testing was carried out to evaluate modal parameters including natural frequencies and modal damping ratios at every prestressing stage. In the modal testing, a digitally controlled vibration exciter as well as an impact hammer is applied to obtain frequency response functions more exactly and the modal parameters are evaluated varying with construction stages. Prestressed force effects on changes of modal parameters are analyzed at every incremental prestressing stage.

A bridge comprising of two girders, such as a twin steel box-girder bridge, is classified as fracture critical (i.e., non-redundant). In this study, the various bridge components of the twin steel box-girder bridge are investigated to determine if these could be utilized to improve bridge redundancy. Detailed finite-element (FE) models, capable of simulating prominent failure modes observed in a full-scale bridge fracture test, are utilized to evaluate the contributions of the bridge components on the ultimate behavior and redundancy of the bridge sustaining a fracture on one of its girders. The FE models incorporate material nonlinearities of the steel and concrete members, and are capable of capturing the effects of the stud connection failure and railing contact. Analysis results show that the increased tensile strength of the stud connection and (or) concrete strength are effective in improving bridge redundancy. By modulating these factors, redundancy could be significantly enhanced to the extent that the bridge may be excluded from its fracture critical designation.

This study presents an experimental study of the structural behavior for steel plate-concrete column-to-steel girder connections. Experiments were carried out to investigate the moment-rotation characteristics, failure behavior and ultimate moment capacity of these connections. The results of this experimental study involving three welded moment-resisting connections subjected to cyclic loading are presented. The specimens were fabricated at full scale to evaluate their hysteretic behavior. A description of the test specimens, the details of the joint, the test system and the testing methods are described. The test results showed that the structural behavior of these composite connections was influenced by the connection details.

본 연구는 곡선배치 텐던을 갖는 변단면 PSC의 전단을 고려한 층상화 단면해석기술을 소개한다. 곡선배치 텐던의 전단평형을 고려하기 위해서, 각 층상화 단면에서 전단응력을 직접 산출 할 수 있는 새로운 방법과 각 층상화 단면의 변형률 산정시 기존의 반복법보다 수렴 속도가 효율적인 시스템인식기법을 적용하였다. 제안기법은 변단면 PSC보의 정재하실험 결과와 비교분석 되었으며, 추정된 구조응답과 실험결과가 잘 일치하고 있다. 또한, 동일 조건에서 변단면 PSC보와 균등단면 PSC보의 거동특성이 비교분석되었다. 분석결과을 살펴보면, 휨강성은 변단면과 균등단면이 동일하지만, 전단강성은 변단면이 균등단면 보다 크다. 더욱이, 변단면의 자중이 균등단면보다 크지만 변단면의 최대처짐이 균등단면 보다 작다.

This paper presents the status quo of the development of a piecewise bendable switch system for the urban transit MagLev. MagLev system as well as railroad requires switch systems to reach its destination. Requirements of the switch system for commercial lines are high speed operation satisfying about 2-3 minute headway and system reliability, etc. Parallel moving type switch system was installed on the test track of urban transit MagLev in KIMM. In this system, switch operation from one position to another can be done in about 90 seconds. Therefore, we concluded that this system can not satisfy the headway for the commercial lines. We decided to develop a high speed piecewise bendable switch system in which switching can be done in 20 seconds. Designed switch system is very complicated in view of operating mechanism. It consists of 11 segmented girder beams driven by hydraulic cylinders. To gain the idea of a piecewise bendable switch system, we manufactured and tested a 1/5 scale switch model. We are going to construct a full scale piecewise bendable switch system next year.

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.
