Catwalk structures are temporary walk ways for erection of main cables in suspension bridge. The aerodynamic characteristics of the catwalk structures are not well studied even though the catwalk structures are sensitive to wind action because of its flexibility. Present study demonstrates technical results obtained from wind tunnel tests of various catwalk structures. To obtain the aerostatic force coefficients of the floor system of catwalk, 1/14 and 1/4 scaled partial rigid models were fabricated and tested at the wind tunnel. In order to investigate the Reynolds number effects, the aerostatic force coefficients were measured at various wind velocities ranged from 5m/s to 30m/s. The test results revealed that the Reynolds number effects on aerostatic coefficients were not significant for the catwalk floor systems. An empirical equation for aerostatic force coefficients of catwalk are proposed based on the measured results.

Recently, as demands of new railway and the relocation of existing line, a number of tunnel structures have been constructed. Tunnel structures contribute to minimize the cost and time of transport, but in case of railway fire accident bring serious damages of human life caused by narrowness of shelter, smoke and high temperature, difficulty in rescue. For that reason, at the beginning of plan of tunnel, the optimum design of safety facility in tunnel for minimizing the risks and satisfying the safety standard is needed. In this study, QRA(Quantitative Risk Analysis) technique is applied to design of railway tunnel for assuring the safety function and estimating the risk of safety. The case study is carried out to verify the QRA technique for railway tunnels in Iksan-Sili.

본 연구는 모래지반에서 터널의 굴착조건(터널깊이 및 터널직경)과 시공조건(지반손실량), 지반조건(조밀한 모래, 느슨한 모래)을 변화시키면서 터널상부에 위치한 구조물의 거동변화를 조사 및 분석한 것이다. 분석에 사용된 구조물은 4층 블록식구조물로서 변형 등에 의한 균열발생과 균열폭의 차이로 인해 구조물의 손상정도를 쉽게 파악할 수 있는 특징이 있다. 다양한 터널 굴착조건 및 시공조건, 지반조건에 대해서 발생할 수 있는 터널상부 블록구조물의 거동상태를 파악하기 위해 수치해석적 매개변수 해석을 수행하였으며, 수치해석은 구조물의 실제크랙 발생을 묘사할 수 있도록 개별요소법(DEM)에 근거하여 수행하였다. 다양한 매개변수 해석으로부터 얻어진 구조물의 거동상태에 대한 결과는 터널 굴착조건 및 시공조건, 지반조건과 상호연관하여 함께 반영될 수 있도록 도표화 하였으며, 이를 이용하여 향후 모래지반에서 다양한 터널굴착 및 시공조건, 지반조건으로 인해 유발되는 터널 상부구조물의 손상정도를 보다 용이하게 파악할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

최근에는 도시개발 및 확장으로 지하철, 도로, 대형관로 등 기존 터널 구조물에 인접하여 건설 계획이 증가하고 있다. 기존 터널에 인접한 구조물 계획은 신규 구조물의 시공방법 및 인접 정도, 위치에 따라 터널 안정성 미치는 영향이 다르다. 특히 압력 수로터널은 지반 거동 특성 및 운영 특성에 있어 도로터널 및 철도터널과는 매우 큰 차이를 보인다. 따라서 수로터널의 거동 특성 및 신규공사 공법을 고려하여 근접시공으로 인한 안전영역에 대한 재검토가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 기존 터널 인접 시공 기준을 조사하고 수로터널 특성을 고려하여 안정성 평가를 수행하였다. 안정성 평가는 운용 중인 터널의 콘크리트라이닝의 열화를 고려하여 수치해석적 방법으로 평가하였다. 또한, 신규 구조물의 말뚝 시공 및 발파굴착에 의한 진동 영향을 검토하여 인접 시공방법에 따른 기존 터널 안정성이 확보되는 영역을 검토하였다. 국내 다양한 근접시공 영역에 대한 기준을 바탕으로 운용 중인 수로터널 특성을 반영하여 안전영역을 재검토하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 근접 안전 시공범위를 제시하였다.

An engineer designing a tunnel in an urban area should be to predict the magnitude and distribution of ground movements which are important to Investigate the potential damage to the existing structures around tunnel. The present study examines available theories and emprical equations, and tries to investigate quantativily ground movements around tunnel with tunnel progressing. Approcaches to the problem of ground movements associated with twin tunnel was and elasto - plastic finite element method. Typical section in Seoul Subway were selected in numerical study. The analysis and study was done with respect. to surface, subsurface and crown settlements with varying ground conditions, tunnel geommetry and construction conditions.

Probability-based design codes have been developed to sufficiently confirm the safety level of structures. One of the most acceptable probability-based approaches is Load Resistance Factor Design (LRFD), which measures the safety level of the structures in terms of the reliability index. The main contribution of this paper is to calibrate the load and resistance factors of the design code for tunnels. The load and resistance factors are calculated using the available statistical models and probability-based procedures. The major steps include selection of representative structures, consideration of the limit state functions, calculation of reliability for the selected structures, selection of the target reliability index and calculation of load factors and resistance factors. The load and resistance models are reviewed. Statistical models of resistance (load carrying capacity) are summarized for strength limit state in bending, shear and compression. The reliability indices are calculated for several segments of a selected circular tunnel designed according to the tunnel manual report (Tunnel Manual). The novelty of this paper is the selection of the target reliability. In doing so, the uniform spectrum of reliability indices is proposed based on the probability paper. The final recommendation is proposed based on the closeness to the target reliability index.

Several international codes have been developed for evaluating wind loads on structures; however, the wind structure interaction could not be accurately captured by these codes due to the gusty nature of wind and the dynamic behavior of structures. Therefore, the alternative wind tunnel testing was introduced. In this study, an introduction to the available approaches for wind load calculations for tall buildings was presented. Then, a comparative study between different codes: the Egyptian code, ECP 201-08, ASCE 7-05, BS 6399-2, and wind tunnel test results was conducted. An investigation has been carried out on two case studies tall buildings located within the Arabian Gulf region. Numerical models using (ETABS) software were produced to obtain the relation between codes analytical values and wind tunnel experimental test results for wind loads in the along and across wind directions. Results for the main structural responses including stories forces, shears, overturning moments, lateral displacements, and drifts were presented graphically in order to give clear comparison between the studied methods. The conclusions and recommendations for future works obtained from this research are finally presented to help improving Egyptian code provisions and show limitations for different cases.

In this paper, the full-size structural performance test for a lightweight soundproof tunnel composed of partitioned pipe truss members is carried out to investigate the structural performance. In addition, a nonlinear structural analysis of the same finite element model as the full-size testing model is performed to compare the test result. The test and analysis results showed that the lightweight soundproof tunnel ensures the structural safety against wind loads, snow loads and load combinations. As a result, the full-size test and analysis results meet all the design load conditions, hence the proposed lightweight soundproof tunnel is ready for the field application.

Based on the investigation results on the damages of some underground structures due to the severe Kobe Earthquake it concludes that the aseismicity of underground is far superior to that of aboveground structures. Therefore, at first, necessity to reconstruct strong cities especially by good use of underground space will be discussed. Then two non-circular shield-tunneling projects in Japan are discussed. The first is construction of the world's first shield driven double track subway tunnel of rectangular shape for the Kyoto Municipal Subway. This paper presents a report on the overall planning, the tests that were performed in the process of planning, and the results of driving. The second is the design of the Hirakata Tunnel, with three traffic lanes and shoulders on one side, which will be constructed as one of the tunnels for The New Meishin (Nagoya-Kobe) Expressways. This paper presents the feasibility study of the shield tunneling method, using the same design criteria as the non-circular, horseshoe section of mountain tunnel, to the equivalent section of the Hirakata Tunnel.
