Because of our country's climate that has the 50% of the annual precipitation in summer, annually a lot of bridges on the roads are broken in this season. So, we need an accelerated bridge construction method that complete to repair the roads. This paper introduces the Hangae 2 bridge, prefabricated bridge using full depth precast deck panels and new types of PSC girders. The Hangae 2 bridge located in lnje-gun, kangwon-do. This is a good example of the accelerated bridge construction method for recovery of flood damaged road. The PSC girder bridge system introduced in this paper is a rapid construction method for bridge that can reduce the term of works over 50%.

Maglev is a system that a train runs levitated above a rail. Therefore it is very important to maintain a constant levitation gap for achieving serviceability and ride comfort. This study is a cooperation research subject of the 3-1 subject, performance improvement of maglev track structures, of the Center for Urban Maglev Program in Korea, started in 2006. The aim of this study is development of rapid constructions of bridge superstructure for maglev. At present, precast deck is widely used because of its superiority to cast-in-place concrete on quality and the term of works. The research group suggested basic systems of maglev guideway with PSC-U type and trapezoidal open steel box type girder, and precast deck, cooperating with Korea Railroad Research Institute, the managing institute of the 3-1 subject. In this study, longitudinally full-scale guideway girder system was fabricated and static/dynamic test of the girder was performed for the purpose of the performance evaluation.

The maglev guiderail systems, which receive directly the live load of maglev train and transfer the load to the main girder, is a important constituent in guideway system. As a process of development of maglev guideway girder adopting the precast decks, static and fatigue loading tests of the connections systems of precast deck and guiderail have been accomplished. In this stude, the structural characteristics of precast deck-guiderail connection systems are being evaluated by performing a detailed finite element analyses.

In these days, the deterioration of bridges make it necessary for decks to be replaced and it is inevitable to apply the precast decks to minimize the traffic control induced from the deck placement. This precast deck construction makes the physically discontinuous interface between old and new concrete. Usually, the adhesive force at this interface are ignored. However, for crack behavior and reliable long term behavior, it is required to evaluate the exact value of the cohesive force at the interface. This research investigates the cohesive characteristics at the interface. Four different interface surface conditions are tested and three different methods are used to measure the cohesive strength at the interface. In addition, cohesive characteristic at the surface between precast panels are investigated with different interface surface conditions.

Micro-cracks with a width less than 0.1 mm in precast concrete panels do not cause structural problem, but they can cause problems in long term durability and concrete surfaces aesthetic, requiring additional repair costs. In this paper, polymer cement concrete is used to increase flexural tensile strength and to prevent micro-cracks due to construction loads on LB-DECK panels. Using 5% polymer-cement ratio, the panel crack moment is increased by improving flexural tensile strength and controlling visible micro-cracks during construction stage of LB-DECK.

중트럭 통행으로 인한 철근콘크리트 교량바닥판의 열화는 교량구조물을 유지보수하는데 있어 심각한 문제 중 하나이며, 프리캐스트 바닥판을 이용한 교량바닥판의 시공 및 교체 방법이 실용적이며 효과적인 방법으로 인식되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 횡방향 ddusruf부에 종방향 프리스트레싱을 도입한 프리캐스트 바닥판의 모델을 제작하여 바닥판간 횡방향 연결부의 강성 평가 및 연결부의 피로 거동을 파악하기 위해서 피로실험을 수행하여 피로하중하에서의 휨강성의 변화, 균열발생 및 파괴하중 등을 측정하였다. 실험결과를 통해서 피로하중하에서 프리스트레스 프리캐스트 부재의 프리스트레스 효과를 평가하였으며, 현장타설에 의해서 시공되는 일반 RC 부재에 비해서 우수한 구조적 거동을 보여주는 적정량의 종방향 프리스트레스 크기를 결정하였다.

The concrete bridge decks are usually precast and in-situ assembled with steel girders with post-pouring joint in the construction practice of super-wide steel-concrete composite beam. But the difference of concrete age between the precast slabs and the post-pouring joint has been not yet considered for the long-term performance analysis of this kind composite beam. A simply supported precast-assembled T-shaped beam was taken as an example to analyze the long-term performance of steel-concrete composite beam with post-pouring joint. Based on the deformation coordination conditions of the old-new concrete deck and steel girder, a theoretical model for the long-term behavior of precast-assembled composite beam is proposed in this paper according to age-adjusted effective modulus method. Then, the feasibility of the proposed model is verified by the available test data from the Gilbert's composite beams. Parametric studies were preformed to evaluate the influences of the cross-sectional area ratio of the post-pouring joint to the whole bridge deck, as well as the difference of concrete age between the precast slabs and the post-pouring joint, on the long-term performance of the composite beam. The results indicate that the traditional method without considering the age difference would seriously underestimate the effect of creep and shrinkage of concrete bridge decks. The concrete age difference between the precast slabs and the post-pouring joint should be demonstrated for the life cycle design and long-term performance analysis of precast-assembled steel-concrete composite beams.

This paper presents experimental static test results of the precast concrete panels developed for short-span concrete bridge deck form. Different from LB-DECK, concrete rib attached to the bottom surface of concrete panel, and Top-bar is not used at the top surface of concrete panel. Number of concrete ribs and cross-section details of concrete rib are determined from the analytical results of parametric study considering the span length and the thickness of concrete bridge decks. Shear rebars are installed at the top surface of concrete panel for composite action between precast concrete panel and cast-in-place concrete. In order to evaluate the safety and the serviceability of the developed short-span concrete panel subjected to design load, static load test is conducted. Three test panels with span length of 1.6m are fabricated, and during the load test displacements, strains and cracks of test panels are measured and final failure modes are investigated. Serviceability of the test panels is evaluated based on the results of displacements, cracking load, and crack width at the design load level. Safety is also evaluated based on the comparison of the ultimate strength and the factored design load of test panels. Based on the test results, it is confirmed the short-span precast concrete panel satisfies the serviceability and safety regulated in design codes. In addition, the range of span length of concrete bridge decks for the short-span concrete panel is discussed.
