In the construction of mountain tunnels, reaction forces of the legs of steel arch supports against the ground are often expected to support the ground being excavated. In these cases, a stress concentration occurs in the ground directly under the support legs. If the bearing capacity of the ground is insufficient or displacement is not effectively constrained, the local failure of the ground under the support legs or settlement of the tunnel supports due to large deformation could result. It is therefore necessary to reinforce the support legs to reduce settlement. As a means of reducing settlement, wing-ribbed steel arch supports are well used. In this study, with the aim of finding a way to quickly reduce the settlement of steel arch support legs, effectiveness of a new type of wing ribs to reinforce steel arch supports was investigated through laboratory testing.

As one of the most common failure types of arch bridges, stability is one of the critical aspects for the design of arch bridges. Using 3D finite element model in ABAQUS, this paper has studied the stability performance of an arch bridge with inclined arch ribs and hangers, and the analysis also took the effects of geometrical and material nonlinearity into account. The impact of local buckling and residual stress of steel plates on global stability and the applicability of fiber model in stability analysis for steel arch bridges were also investigated. The results demonstrate an excellent stability of the arch bridge because of the transverse constraint provided by transversely-inclined hangers. The distortion of cross section, local buckling and residual stress of ribs has an insignificant effect on the stability of the structure, and the accurate ultimate strength may be obtained from a fiber model analysis. This study also shows that the yielding of the arch ribs has a significant impact on the ultimate capacity of the structure, and the bearing capacity may also be approximately estimated by the initial yield strength of the arch rib.

본 연구에서는 원형 강관을 수직 브레이스로 연결한 아치 리브의 면내 좌굴강도 및 극한강도를 평가하기 위한 매개변수 해석 연구를 수행하였다. 브레이스트 아치 리브의 탄소성 거동은 하중의 재하 상태와 아치 곡률뿐만 아니라 일반 단일 아치 리브와 달리 강관리브와 브레이스 부재의 휨강성비, 브레이스의 배치 간격, 강관 리브의 배치간격 등에 영향을 받게 된다. 이러한 영향을 분석하기 위해 본 해석에서는 라이즈비, 리브와 브레이스의 단면2차모멘트비, 수직브레이스의 간격비, 지간 대비 상 하 리브의 간격비, 초기 제작오차 및 세장비 등을 매개변수로 하고 하중의 재하 상태는 등분포 고정하중에 대한 활하중의 비를 고려하였다. 이러한 매개변수에 대한 해석 결과로부터 브레이스트 아치 리브의 적정 형상을 제안하였다. 또한, 브레이스트 아치 리브의 극한강도 평가를 위한 대형 구조 실험을 수행하였으며, 실험 결과는 해석에 의한 결과와 비교적 일치하였다.

Applying the method calculating creep of Concrete Filled steel Tube (CFT) members based on the Elastic Continuation and Plastic Flow theory for concrete creep with the finite element method, the paper develops a new numerical method for the creep of CFT arch bridges considering effects of bending moment. It is shown that the method is feasible and reasonable through comparing the predicted stresses and deflection caused by the creep with the results obtained by the method of Gu et al. (2001) based on ACI209R model and experimental data of an actual CFT arch bridge. Furthermore, nine CFT arch bridges with different types are calculated and analyzed with and without the effects of bending moment. As a result, the bending moment has considerable influences on long-term deformations and internal forces of CFT arch bridges, especially when the section of arch rib is subjected to a large bending moment.

Tongwamen Bridge is a critical link between Dongmen Island and the land in Shipu town, Zhejiang province, China. It is a 238 m span, half-through, concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) X-type arch bridge. The width of the deck is only 10 m, yielding a width-to-span ratio of 1/23.8. The plane truss type section rib was adopted, which made of two CFST chords and web member system. The lateral stability is the key issue to this bridge. However, the existing researches on Tongwamen Bridge's lateral stability are all the deterministic structural analysis. In this paper, a new strategy for positioning sampling points of the response surface method (RSM), based on the composite method combining RSM with geometric method for structural reliability analysis, is employed to obtain the reliability index of lateral stability. In addition the correlated parameters were discussed in detail to find the major factors. According to the analysis results, increasing the stiff of lateral braces between the arch ribs and setting the proper inward-incline degree of the arch rib can enhance obviously the reliability of lateral stability. Moreover, the deck action of non-orienting force is less than the two factors above. The calculated results indicate that the arch ribs are safe enough to keep excellent stability, and it provides the foundation that the plane truss rib would be a competitive solution for a long-span, narrow, CFST arch bridge.

In tennelling lattice girders have basically the same function as steel arch supports. They serve as elements of temporary lining and in some cases also as part of the permanent lining. Also lattice girders are closely connected with that of the shotcreting lining technique. This paper presents the results of modelling test for analysing shorcrete rebound, shotcreting time and finding void spaces using the aretificial tunnel wall which consist of wood to evaluate the site applicability of lattice girders for tunnel support. Test results indicate that in case of using lattice girders as a tunnel support material, shotcrete rebound, shotcreting time and occurrence of void spaces are relatively reduced comparing to H-beam steel rib. And we can get some informations ths lattice girder has various advantages when we use it as one of tunnel support materials.

With the span and arch rib size of concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) arch bridges increase, the hydration heat of pumped mass concrete inside large-size steel tube causes a significant temperature variation, leading to a risk of thermal stress-induced cracking during construction. In order to tackle this phenomenon, a hydration heat conduction model based on hydration degree was established through a nonlinear temperature analysis incorporating an exothermic hydration process to obtain the temperature field of large-size CFST. Subsequently, based on the evolution of elastic modulus based on hydration degree and early-age creep rectification, the finite element model (FEM) model and analytical study were respectively adopted to investigate the variation of the thermal stress of CFST during hydration heat release, and reasonable agreement between the results of two methods is found. Finally, a comparative study of the thermal stress with and without considering early-age creep was conducted.

프리캐스트 콘크리트의 장점과 및 석조 아치의 거동을 접목한 콘크리트 패널 분절 아치 시스템은 가설재가 불필요한 시공성을 확보할 수 있는 경제적 시공법이다. 분절된 프리캐스트 콘크리트 패널의 연속 배치로 구성된 아치는 인양 및 시공을 위한 V형-스트립 연결부의 선설치 앵커 설치가 필수적이다. 그러나 좁은 폭과 얇은 두께의 콘크리트 패널은 선설치 앵커의 충분한 묻힘 깊이 확보를 보장할 수 없고 앵커 인발 거동 시 패널의 휨변형을 동반하는 등 앵커 저항성능 확보를 위한 콘크리트 패널의 기하학적 영향이 고려되어야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 프리캐스트 패널과 강재 아웃리거로 구성된 아치구조의 제작시 설치되는 선설치 앵커의 인발 강도 평가를 위한 실험 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 실제 아치 시스템과 동일한 크기의 프리캐스트 콘크리트 패널을 제작하였으며, 선설 앵커의 직경, 앵커 묻힘 깊이, 와이어 매쉬 사용 등의 영향에 따라 총 24개 실험체의 선설치 앵커 인발 강도를 측정하였다. 또한 측정 변수에 따른 설계기준강도 확보 및 파괴 모드 평가를 통해 프리캐스트 콘크리트 패널 분절 아치 구조에 적용 가능한 선설치 앵커의 형태를 결정하였다.

To determine the seismic applicability of a long-span railway concrete upper-deck arch bridge with concrete-filled steel-tube (CFST) rigid skeleton ribs, some fundamental principles and seismic approaches for long-span bridges are investigated to update the design methods in the current Code for Seismic Design of Railway Engineering of China. Ductile and mixed isolation design are investigated respectively to compare the structural seismic performances. The flexural moment and plastic rotation demands and capacities are quantified to assess the seismic status of the ductile components. A kind of triple friction pendulum (TFP) system and lead-plug rubber bearing are applied simultaneously to regularize the structural seismic demands. The numerical analysis shows that the current ductile layout with continuous rigid frame approaching spans should be strengthened to satisfy the demands of rare earthquakes. However, the mixed isolation design embodies excellent seismic performances for the continuous girder approaching span of this railway arch bridge.

비닐하우스를 구성하는 세장한 강재 파이프 아치의 정적좌굴 하중을 결정하고 전체구조성능을 평가하기 위하여 수직하중을 단계별로 부가하고 고정햄머 및 이동센서 형식을 취한 일련의 충격하중 진동실험을 수행하였다. 수직 및 수평보조재가 없는 내부아치의 거동 조사에 보다 중점을 두었으며, 계측한 입력-출력 진동기록에 대하여 최신 개발된 고급판별법인 PolyMAX법을 적용하여 고유진동수, 모드형태 및 감쇠율 등과 같은 모달계수를 추출하였다. 이러한 실험결과는 상용 유한요소해석 프로그램인 ANSYS를 사용하여 수행한 다양한 조건의 해석결과와 비교하였으며, 상당히 일치된 경향을 나타냈다. 하지만, 내력의 38%정도에 해당하는 수직하중의 부가에 따른 고유진동수의 감소는 미미한 것으로 나타났다. 이와 관련하여 본 연구의 아치와 같이 매우 세장한 구조물의 현장 진동실험 및 시스템판별 해석을 수행하는데 있어서 예상되는 여러 문제점을 신중하게 토의하였다.
