This paper presents load transfer efficiency of skewed transverse joint of jointed concrete pavement with the fatigue model test. A 1/12 scale model was used to satisfy the geometry, loading, material similitude, which are variables to the skew angel of transverse joint. As the test results by fatigue load 700kgf applied, the deflection and stress of transverse joint were decreased as to increasing of skew angle of transverse joint. In addition, load transfer efficiency of transverse joint with skew angle is better than the load transfer efficiency of transverse joint without skew angle.

Rapid construction of prefabricated bridges requires minimizing the field work of precast members and ensuring structural stability and constructability. In this study, we conducted experimental and analytical investigations of transverse joints of prefabricated T-girder bridge superstructures to verify the flexural performance and serviceability. In addition, we conducted parametric studies to identify the joint parameters. The results showed that both the segmented and continuous specimens satisfied the ultimate flexural strength criterion, and the segmented specimen exhibited unified behavior, with the flexural strength corresponding to that of the continuous specimen. The segmented specimens exhibited elastic behavior under service load conditions, and the maximum crack width satisfied the acceptance criteria. The reliability of the finite element model of the joint was verified, and parametric analysis of the convexity of the joint section and the compressive strength of the filler concrete showed that the minimum deflection and crack width occurred at a specific angle. As the strength of the filler concrete increased, the deflection and crack width decreased. However, we confirmed that the reduction in the crack width was hardly observed above a specific strength. Therefore, a design suitable for prefabricated bridges and accelerated construction can be achieved by improving the joint specifications based on the required criteria.

PURPOSES : This paper numerically evaluates the contribution of transverse steel to the structural behavior of continuously reinforced concrete pavements to understand the role of transverse steel. METHODS : Two-lane continuously reinforced concrete pavements with and without transverse steel were analyzed through finite element analysis with the aid of commercial finite element analysis program DIANA; the difference in their structural behavior such as deflection, joint opening, and stress distribution was then evaluated. Twenty-node brick elements and three-node beam elements were used to model concrete and steel, respectively. Sub-layers were modeled with horizontal and vertical tensionless spring elements. The interactions between steel and surrounding concrete were considered by connecting their nodes with three orthogonal spring elements. Both wheel loading and environmental loading in addition to self-weight were considered. RESULTS : The use of transverse steel in continuously reinforced concrete pavements does not have significant effects on the structural behavior. The surface deflections change very little with the use of transverse steel. The joint opening decreases when transverse steel is used but the reduction is quite small. The transverse concrete stress, rather, increases when transverse steel is used due to the restraint exerted by the steel but the increase is quite small as well. CONCLUSIONS : The main role of transverse steel in continuously reinforced concrete pavements is supporting longitudinal steel and/or controlling unexpected longitudinal cracks rather than enhancing the structural capacity.

This paper consists in a study of a new contructive sequence of road viaducts with Movable Scaffolding System (MSS) using numerical tools based on finite element method (FEM). Traditional and new sequences are being used in Spain to build viaducts with MSS. The new sequence permits an easier construction of one span per week but implies some other issues related to the need of two prestressing stages per span. In order to improve the efficiency of the new sequence by reducing the number of prestressing stages per span, two solutions are suggested in this study. Results show that the best solution is to introduce the 100% of the prestressing force at the self-supporting core in order to improve the road viaduct construction with movable scaffolding system by reducing execution time without increasing economic costs.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to investigate the fundamental behaviors such as stresses and deflections of the middle slab in a double-deck tunnel for the development of a middle slab design guide. METHODS : The middle slab has been divided into the following three different sections as according to its structural differences: the normal section, expansion joint section, and emergency passageway section. The normal section of middle slab represents the slab supported by brackets installed continuously along the longitudinal direction of tunnel lining. The expansion joint section refers to a discontinuity of middle slab due to the existence of a transverse expansion joint. The emergency passageway section has an empty rectangular space in the middle slab that acts as an exit in an emergency. The finite element analysis models of these three sections of middle slab have been developed to analyze their respective behaviors. RESULTS : The stresses and deflections of middle slab at the three different sections decrease as the slab thickness increases. The emergency passageway section yields the largest stresses and deflections, with the normal section yielding the smallest. CONCLUSIONS : The stress concentrations at the corners of the passageway rectangular space can be reduced by creating hunch areas at the corners. The stresses and deflections in the emergency passageway section can be significantly decreased by attaching beams under the middle slab in the passageway area.

For the construction of open-topped steel box girder bridges, prefabricated concrete slab could offer several advantages over cast-in-situ deck including good quality control, fast construction, and elimination of the formwork for concrete slab casting. However, precast decks without reinforcements at transverse joints between precast slabs should be designed to prevent the initiation of cracking at the joints, because the performance of the joint is especially crucial for the integrity of a structural system. Several prestressing methods are available to introduce proper compression at the joints, such as internal tendons, external tendons and support lowering after shear connection. In this paper, experimental results from a continuous composite bridge model with precast decks are presented. Internal tendons and external tendons were used to prevent cracking at the joints. Judging from the tests, precast decks in negative moment regions have the whole contribution to the flexural stiffness of composite section under service loads if appropriate prestressing is introduced. The validity of the calculation of a cracking load fur serviceability was presented by comparing an observed cracking load and the calculated value. Flexural behavior of the continuous composite beam with external prestressing before and after cracking was discussed by using the deflection and strain data.

줄눈콘크리트포장의 줄눈은 슬래브의 온도나 습도변화에 의한 구속변형에 의해 슬래브 내부에 종방향 균열이나 횡방향 균열이 발생하는 것을 제어할 목적으로 설치한다. 이러한 줄눈은 줄눈부에서의 불연속성의 원인이 되어 두 슬래브 사이의 하중전달기능을 감소시키며, 상대적으로 취약함을 지녔기 때문에 손상을 유발시킬 수 있는 가능성을 지니고 있다. 따라서, 줄눈콘크리트포장 줄눈부 손상유형 및 정도에 대한 객관적이고 과학적인 평가가 이루어져야 합리적이고 경제적인 보수방법을 결정할 수 있다. 본 연구는 콘크리트포장 해석프로그램인 ILLI-SLAB를 이용하여 줄눈 평가시스템을 개발하고 이를 FWD 시험결과에 이용하여 줄눈콘크리트포장의 상태를 평가하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 먼저 줄눈부에 영향을 줄 수 있는 변수를 선정하고, ILLI-SLAB를 사용하여 민감도 분석을 실시하여 줄눈부에 영향을 크게 미치는 변수를 찾았다. 이러한 변수들을 분석해 줄눈부의 하중전달효과 및 표면 처짐의 관계를 나타내어, 현장에서 FWD를 실시하여 얻은 하중전달효과와 재하위치의 표면 처짐값을 이용해 줄눈콘크리트포장을 평가하였다. 그 결과 노상지지력 계수(K)와 다웰/콘크리트 상호관계 계수(G) 두 변수가 가장 크게 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었으며, 그 임계값은 각각 300 poi와 500,000 lbs/in.임을 알 수 있었다. 이 두 변수와 현장 FWD 시험을 이용하여 줄눈콘크리트포장의 평가시스템을 개발하였으며, 실제 중부고속도로에서 실시한 FWD 측정치를 이용해 평가한 결과 한 개의 줄눈부만이 다웰/콘크리트 상호관계 계수가 임계값보다 낮고, 대부분 줄눈부의 두 인자값이 임계값 이상으로 콘크리트포장 줄눈부가 양호함을 알 수 있었다.이며, 관목층훼손 식생지와 단층구조 식생지는 소극적 복원지로서 군집유형별로 상림내 안정된 다층구조의 자연식생구조를 모델로 하여 생태적 천이발달을 유도하여야 할 것이다. 또한 잔디광장과 조경수식 재지는 적극적 복원지로서 다층구조의 참나무류군집과 낙엽활엽수군집 (개서어나무 우점)을 모델로 하여 관리해야 할 것이다.저서무척추동물이었다. 우점도지수는 가을 0.22～0.51(평균$\pm$표준편차 0.42$\pm$0.09), 겨울 0.31～0.96(0.62$\pm$0.23). 여름 0.30～0.89(0.57$\pm$0.18)였고, 다양도지수는 가을 3.50～4.26(3.80$\pm$0.24), 겨울 1.55～4.50(3 10$\pm$1.01), 여름 1.35～3.77(2.55$\pm$0.69)였다. 홍수 후의 조사에서 노린재류, 딱정벌레류, 복족류 등 이동성이 높거나 완전히 수중생활에 적응한 종류의 회복이 빠른 것으로 나타났다. 전체 조사지점 중에서 우포와 사지포의 평균 다양도지수가 가장 높게 나타나서 그 지역이 양호한 저서무척추동물의 서식처를 형성하고 있음을 시사하였다.한 독창성을 보여주고 있다. 또한 내재된 패션 이미지를 분석해 보면 정확함과 차가움의 의미를 지닌 이지적 이미지와 우주의 질서를 반영하는 상징적 이미지, 복잡한 자연으로부터 간결한 형태로의 경향성이 이루어낸 인공적 이미지를 느낄 수 있었으며, 미래적 이미지와 전통적 이미지의 상반된 개념의 이미지를 같이 내포하고 있음을 추론할 수 있었다. 이와 같이 현대 패션에 표현된 기하학적 패턴은 복식을 조형예술 분야로
