A precast concrete deck system is considered an effective alternative in terms of its rapid construction and quality assurance than cast-in-place concrete deck. In precast concrete deck system, structural performance and serviceability are mostly determined by the connection methods between the precast decks. This research proposes more improved precast deck system with asymmetric ribbed connection details improving the disadvantage of previous precast deck system such as difficulties in assembling precast decks. And in this precast deck system, a separate form is not required at the site because partition wall of the precast decks serves as a form when placing non-shrinkage mortar in the connection part of the precast decks. Therefore, rapid construction is possible. Flexural performance is verified through load tests considering main parameter such as rib length in the precast deck connection. From the test results, it can be inferred that the development of the rebar and prevention of adhesion failure in the partition wall of the precast deck system are important factors in securing the flexural performance. Although the structural performance of the precast deck system with asymmetric connection details is gradually reduced as the rib length in the precast deck connection increases, the proposed precast deck system shows sufficient flexural performance and can be applied to the connection part of precast decks effectively.

In precast deck system, structural performance and serviceability are mostly determined by the connection methods between the precast decks. This study proposes precast deck system with asymmetric ribbed connection details using High Strength Fiber Reinforced Concrete(HSFRC) with filler. To verify the proposed method, the flexural performance experiment was carried out with variation of joint cross section type and splice rebar details. From the test results, regardless of joint details, spliced tensile rebars of specimens were deformed to yielding strain level. Also, all types of specimens resulted in sufficient flexural performance. These test results show that the minimum lap splice length specified in current Korea Highway Bridge Design Code is conservative for precast deck joint using HSFRC. Therefore, splice details can be simplified and joint width can be reduced by using HSFRC with filler between the precast decks, and the proposed precast deck systems can be applied to the connection part of precast decks effectively.

The kind of concrete generally used in steel concrete composite bridges is normal-weight concrete whose unit weight is ${2,300kg/m^{3}}$. However, using lightweight concrete in composite bridges diminishes the sectional forces due to the self-weight of concrete decks. As a result, this will make the bridge design more economical. The type of concrete deck that could be adopted in composite bridges using lightweight con crete may be classified into Cast-In-Place (C.I.P.) concrete deck and precast concrete deck. These two types of decks have some differences with respect to structural behavior and constructional method, and hence,structural behavior of stud shear connectors that connect a concrete deck to a steel girder is changed with the type of deck used. In this study, push-out tests were conducted to evaluate the characteristics of static behavior of the stud shear connectors with a precast deck using lightweight concrete. Also, additional precast deck specimens with bedding layer that had shear keys and devices for transverse confinement of the bedding layer for the prevention of cracks occurring in the bedding layer were tested. These cracks The efficiency of these devices was then evaluated.

현재 국내에서는 아파트 건물을 짓는데 벽과 바닥판으로만 이루어진 벽식 구조형식을 많이 사용하고 있다. 이러한 고층 아파트건물을 해석하기 위해서 ETABS나 MIDAS/BDS 같은 상용프로그램이 주로 사용되고 있다. ETABS는 해석상의 편의를 위하여 바다판을 강막으로 가정하여 모형화 하고 바닥판의 휨강성은 고려하지 않고 있다. 이러한 가정은 프레임 구조물을 해석할 때에는 합리적이라고 할 수 있다. 그러나 벽식 구조물은 바닥판의 휨강성이 전체 구조물의 횡방향 강성에 큰 영향을 미치므로 바닥판의 휨강성을 고려하지 않으면 전체 구조물의 강성을 과소평가하게 된다. 따라서 바닥판을 판요소로 세분하여 모형화 하는 것이 필요하다. 그러나 이때 많은 양의 해석 시간과 컴퓨터 메모리가 필요하게 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 부분구조법과 행렬응축기법을 사용하여 해석 시간과 컴퓨터 메모리의 사용을 줄이면서도 바닥판의 휨강성을 효율적으로 해석할 수 있는 해석 기법을 제안하였고 예제를 통하여 검증하였다.

CFT structures require a diaphragm to prevent buckling of steel at connections. An outer diaphragm has better concrete filling than a through diaphragm due to a large bore, but due to the larger size than the through diaphragm, it has poorer constructability and cooperation with building equipment. The building structure has a floor slab that was unified with the upper diaphragm, so the outer diaphragm was placed at the upper bound. Moreover, the through diaphragmwas placed at the lower connection to avoid obstruction of the building equipment. The CFT structure with the improved concrete filling showed the same structural behavior as the CFT structure with the use of the same type of diaphragms at the upper and lower connections.

최근 도입 필요성이 계속하여 높아지고 있는 지하유입시설 유입구로는 유입구 효율과 성능으로 인하여 와류식 유입구가 많이 적용되고 있다. 그 중 나선식 유입구(spiral intake)는 가장 일반적으로 사용되는 형식으로 초기에 활용되었던 원형 유입구(circular intake)를 대신하여 사용되는 형식이다. 형상은 복잡하지만 구조물 내부에서 와류(vortex)를 안정적으로 형성시키기 때문에 많이 사용되고 있다. 나선식 지하방수로 유입구가 사용되는 가장 큰 이유는 유입구 내부에서도 수위가 안정적으로 유지되며, 유입 유량에 따른 수위의 변화가 다른 유입구 형식에 비하여 비교적 안정적으로 예측 가능하기 때문이다. 만약 지하방수로 유입구 내부에서 수위가 안정적으로 유지되지 못하고 도수 현상 등에 의한 수위 상승 현상 등이 발생할 경우 지하유입시설 내부로 안정적으로 유량을 배제하는 것이 어려워지고, 또한 도수 현상이 발생하는 동안 과도한 유량이 유입될 경우 다시 본류로 흐름이 역류할 가능성도 생각할 수 있다. 따라서 유입구 형상에 따른 수위의 변화를 정확히 예측하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서 검토할 종경사형 나선식 유입구(inclined spiral intake)는 일정한 바닥 경사를 도입하여 사류 흐름을 보다 안정적으로 가속시켜 유입구 내부에서의 도수 현상을 방지하는 형식으로 유입구 바닥의 외측 또는 중앙선을 따라서 일정한 경사를 주어 사류 유입 흐름을 안정적으로 유도함으로서 유량 배제 효율을 높인 형태라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 유입구 외측을 기준으로 일정한 경사를 가진 종경사형 나선식 유입구 모형을 이용하여 경사 변화에 따른 방류 효율을 검토하였다.

This paper presents a simplified analysis method using the elastic equivalent modelling not using the global finite element modelling of deck for the basic design GFRP composites deck with cellular tubes or sandwich structural type. In order to verify the validation of the simplified method ANSYS software package is used and compared the results analyzed on the global finite element modelling and the elastic equivalent modelling. And the laboratory testing by 4-point bending is conducted to compare the results based on the simplified analysis method proposed in this paper. The comparison of the results based on the analysis and the testing are discussed. It is found that the presented simplified analysis is applicable to the use in the basic design GFRP composite deck.

Since recently developed Ultra-High-Performance-Concrete (UHPC) provides very high strength, stiffness, and durability, many studies have been made on the application of the UHPC to bridge decks. Due to high strength and stiffness of UHPC bridge deck, the structural contribution of top flange of steel girder composite to UHPC deck would be much lower than that of conventional concrete deck. At this point of view, this study proposes a inverted-T shaped steel girder composite to UHPC deck. This girder requires a new type of shear connector because conventional shear connectors are welded on top flange. This study also proposes three different types of shear connectors, and evaluate their ultimate strength via push-out static test. The first one is a stud shear connector welded directly to the web of the girder in the transverse direction. The second one is a puzzle-strip type shear connector developed by the European Commission, and the last one is the combination of the stud and the puzzle-strip shear connectors. Experimental results showed that the ultimate strength of the transverse stud was 26% larger than that given in the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, but a splitting crack observed in the UHPC deck was so severe that another measure needs to be developed to prevent the splitting crack. The ultimate strength of the puzzle-strip specimen was 40% larger than that evaluated by the equation of European Commission. The specimens combined with stud and puzzle-strip shear connectors provided less strength than arithmetical sum of those. Based on the experimental observations, there appears to be no advantage of combining transverse stud and puzzle-strip shear connectors.
