Many slab-on-girder bridges around the world are being assessed because they are approaching the end of their anticipated design lives or codes are permitting higher allowable loads. Current analytical techniques assume that the concrete and steel components act independently, typically requiring full-scale load testing to more accurately predict the remaining strength or endurance of the structure. However, many of the load tests carried out on these types of bridges would be unnecessary if the degree of interaction resulting from friction at the steel-concrete interface could be adequately modeled. Experimental testing confirmed that interface friction has a negligible effect on the flexural capacity of a slab-on-girder beam however, it also showed that interface friction is significant under serviceability loading. This has led to the development of an improved analytical technique which is presented in this paper and referred to as the slab-on-girder mixed analysis service load assessment approach.

Channel girder bridges that consist of a deck slab and two side beams are good choices for railway bridges and urban rail transit bridges when the vertical clearance beneath the bridge is restricted. In this study, the behavior of simply supported channel girder bridges was theoretical studied based on the theory of elasticity. The accuracy of the theoretical solutions was verified by the finite element analysis. The global bending of the channel girder and the local bending of the deck slab are two contributors to the deformations and stresses of the channel girder. Because of the shear lag effect, the maximum deflection due to the global bending could be amplified by 1.0 to 1.2 times, and the effective width of the deck slab for determining the global bending stresses can be as small as 0.7 of the actual width depending on the width-to-span ratio of the channel girder. The maximum deflection and transversal stress due to the local bending are obtained at the girder ends. For the channel girders with open section side beams, the side beam twist has a negligible effect on the deflections and stresses of the channel girder. Simplified equations were also developed for calculating the maximum deformations and stresses.

A three-dimensional finite element dynamic analysis was conducted to evaluate the effects of reducing cross beams from a simply supported straight P.S.C girder bridge. Two analyses were performed on the P.S.C girder bridge; one with 7 cross beams which is commonly used as current standard, and the other with 3 cross beams. A frequency analysis was conducted first in order to establish the dynamic characteristics of the bridge and determine an appropriate time step to use in the time history analyses. To assess the function and effectiveness of the cross beams, time history analysis was conducted for aforementioned two analysis cases. In the analysis, the complete model was subjected to a loading condition corresponding to the one passing truck loading. Several results of deflection, bending moment and shear forces were compared for two cases. From the analysis results, reduction of cross beams was found to have only a minimum effect on the response of the bridge. The maximum deck slab bending moment was found to decrease. This decrease should result in smaller flexural crack widths in the deck slab, which may lead to an improved deck performance.

프리캐스트 콘크리트 페널의 일종인 LB-DECK은 콘크리트 교량 바닥판의 시공시 LB-DECK 위에 현장타설되는 콘크리트와 합성 거동하는 영구 콘크리트 거푸집이다. 현행 LB-DECK은 두께가 60 mm인 콘크리트 슬래브와 슬래브 내부에 높이 125 mm인 lattice-girder들의 일부가 매립되어 있는 구조이다. 이러한 LB-DECK은 시공하중에 의해 종방향 균열이 발생하지 않도록 거더 간격이 충분히 작은 교량 바닥판 시공시 주로 적용되고 있다. 이 논문에서는 최근 강박스 교량과 같이 교량 바닥판의 지간장이 긴 교량에 LB-DECK를 적용할 경우 콘크리트 하부에 발생될 수 있는 종방향 균열을 최소화시키기 위하여, LB-DECK의 균열강도를 평가하기 위한 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. LB-DECK 콘크리트 슬래브의 두께, lattice-girder의 높이, 그리고 top-bar의 지름을 변수로 하는 8종류 24개의 비합성 보부재와 4가지 종류의 합성 보부재 4개를 제작한 후 정적하중 재하실험을 수행하였다. 실험체에 대한 정적하중 재하 실험을 통해 각 실험체의 균열하중과 극한하중을 평가하였으며, 또한 최종 파괴시까지 중앙부 처짐, top-bar의 변형률, 콘크리트 슬래브의 균열 진전 양상 그리고 최종 파괴 형태를 살펴보았다. 각 실험체로부터 얻은 균열하중의 크기는 탄성해석을 통해 얻은 해석치와 비교하였다. 또한 콘크리트 건조수축이 균열강도에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 AEMM 방법을 이용한 장기 거동 해석을 수행하였다. 실험 결과를 토대로, 지간장이 긴 교량 바닥판에 LB-DECK 적용시, 균열 발생을 예방할 수 있도록 LB-DECK 콘크리트 슬래브의 균열강도와 설계상세를 검토하였다.

Composite beams with corrugated steel webs represent a new innovative system which has emerged in the past decade for medium span in the construction technology. The use of composite beams with corrugated steel webs results in a range of benefits, including flexible spaces and reduced foundation costs in the construction technology. The thin corrugated web affords a significant weight reduction of these beams, compared with hot-rolled or welded ones. In the current research, an optimal designed I-girder beam with corrugated web has been proposed to improve the structural performance of continuous composite girder under bending moment. The experimental program has been conducted for six simply supported composite beams with different loading conditions. The tested specimens are designed by using one of the stochastic techniques called hunting search algorithm. In the optimization process, besides the thickness of concrete slab and studs, corrugated web properties are considered as design variables. The design constraints are respectively implemented from Eurocode 3, BS-8110 and DIN 18-800 Teil-1. The last part of the study focuses on performing a numerical study on composite beams by utilizing finite element analysis and the bending behavior of steel girders with corrugated webs experimentally and numerically verified the results. A nonlinear analysis was carried out using the finite element software ANSYS on the composite beams which were modelled using the elements ten-node high order quadrilateral type.

This paper deals with the influence on the dynamic response of I-type girder railway bridge with high-speed electric multiple unit(HEMU) train load. This bridge system which has six I-girder and several cross beams, is modeled with plate and frame elements. And the upper slab is assumed to be fully connected with girders using rigid rinks. Span lengths, types of vehicle and running speeds are selected as parameters for analyses. For more exact analysis, it was adopted that 3-dimensional section of bridge models was produced by the assumed design wheel loads of HEMU vehicle at 200~350 km/hr speeds. Dynamic vertical deflections, dynamic amplification factors and vertical accelerations of bridges having 30 and 35 m span length were investigated and compared with the limit values specified in various national railway bridge specifications.

Along with the steady development of Korean Railway construction technology, Contemporary society needs more modernized structures which can meet not only structural value but also aesthetic and environmental value. To follow this demand of society, Pre-Stressed Concrete U-girder bridge(Somg-Lim Gyo, L=330m) is introduced in 'JINJOO-KWANGYANG RAILWAY CONSTRUCTION PROJECT'. On the environmental point of view, the huge noise due to the operation of train can be reduced remarkably by the side beam of U-girder which is high enough to substitute soundproofing wall. Moreover, by aesthetic variation of the shape of outer beams and coping of piers, the exterior view of the bridge can be improved and in accordance with surroundings. Pre-Stressed Concrete U-Girders which are built up above the outer sides of slab deck make easier to secure the clearance of a bridge and make it possible to lower the distance of centroid between superstructure and railroad tracks.

This paper proposes a model for analysing the non-linear behaviour of steel concrete composite beams prestressed by external slipping cables, taking into account the deformability of the interface shear connection. By assuming a suitable admissible displacement field for the composite beam, the balance condition is obtained by the virtual work principle. The solution is numerically achieved by approximating the unknown displacement functions as series of shape functions according to the Ritz method. The model is applied to real cases by showing the consequences of different connection levels between the concrete slab and the steel beam. Particular attention is focused on the limited ductility of the shear connection that may be the cause of premature failure of the composite girder.

본 논문에서는 압연형강(H형강)을 이용한 강합성 교량에 대한 3차원 유한요소 해석을 실시하여, 가로보가 활하중 횡 분배에 미치는영향에 대해 검토하였다. 고려된 주요 변수는 주형과 가로보의 단면2차모멘트비, 가로보의 설치 여부, 가로보의 개수 등이다. 유한요소 해석을 통한 활하중 횡분배 계수와 함께 관용적인 격자해석에 의한 활하중 횡분배 계수도 비교하였다. 분석결과에서 가로보는 활 하중 횡분배에 별다른 영향을 미치지 못하며, 콘크리트 바닥판이 활하중 횡분배에는 가장 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 활하중 횡분배를 목적으로 설치하는 가로보는 제거가 가능한 것으로 판단된다.
