The purpose of this study is to show pressure distribution of the bearing girder in large vessel engine and to consider finite elements analysis using the pressure distribution. Various kinds of the exciting forces act on a bearing girder. And at the same time, it is necessary to consider the contact between a crankshaft and a bearing girder because a bearing girder supports a crankshaft. However it is to need the computer resource with much time if we apply the contact element to a complex solid model and perform a repeated analysis. Thus we have accomplished a contact analysis in the simplistic finite element model of the bearing girder. After that we take a pressure distribution, and apply this to actual finite element model and accomplish finite element analysis. The result of stresses and strains has been produced using superposition method. The concept of superposition method is to find the resultant deflection of several loads acting on a member as the sum of contributions of individual loads. The results were compared with measured results and were verified to be accurate. Resulting analyzed strain favorably coincides with measured strain. The experiment result justifies this paper method.

Load bearing capacity of new lattice girder has been evaluated with optimized spider for lattice girder utilized in the construction of tunnels. This newly developed lattice girder is different from existing lattice girder as its design is associated with existing spider with newly developed 2 types of form. The spacing of lattice girder's spider is linked with the weight and it decides the unit cost and construction therefore, different spacing of the developed spider has been produced to evaluate the measurement of load bearing capacity. As the result of the tests by producing the spacing of spider as 0cm and 4cm for developed lattice girder-2, the load bearing capacity of 0cm with spacing of 21%, and 4cm with 25% of increase when they are compared with the existing lattice girder, and the weight of specimen was decreased. As the result of the tests by producing the spacing of 1cm and 6cm for developed lattice girder-3, the spacing of 1cm with 42%, and the spacing of 6cm with 11% of increase which presented higher load bearing capacity in all newly developed forms, and there was a certain degree of increase in weight in case of 1cm of spacing. The result of evaluation regarding on the displacement by applying the evaluation method suggested by the German Railroad administration, the entire specimens were found to satisfy all the evaluation standard suggested by the administration.

In the replacement of bearing system of bridges, the jacking work to secure work spaces may cause damage of the superstructure, hence the behavior of superstructure by the jacking force must be considered. Especially, in prestressed concrete I-type girder bridges, considering the stress concentration at the girder and the load redistribution of superstructure, the allowable jacking force and jacking sequence have to be determined. In this study, an analytical method is proposed to calculate the jacking force and overall jacking sequence for the replacement of bearing system without any damage to the superstructure. The stress concentration at the girder and load redistribution of the deck due to jacking force are considered to compute the allowable jacking force for each girder and overall jacking sequence for girders in the deck. Using the solution algorithm developed in this study, the optimum jacking sequence and required jacking force for the prestressed concrete I-type gilder bridge having the standard sections are calculated.

It has long been recognized that the H-beam steel rib has many shortcomings when used as a steel support in tunneling. One of the major shortcomings is the shotcrete shadow created behind H-beam flange which eventually reduces the load bearing capacity of shotcrete shell. In many European countries, plate girder as the H-beam steel rib has been replaced by lattice girder which has many advantages over the H-beam steel rib. Successful application of the lattice girder as a steel support requires a thorough investigation on the load bearing capacity of the lattice girder. Therefore, laboratory bending and compression tests were conducted on lattice girders with the aim of investigating the load bearing capacity of the lattice girders. The results of tests show that the load bearing capacity of laIn twice girders is higher than that of H-beams, which indicates that the lattice girder can be effectively used as a support in tunneling.

Localized corrosions damages in their structural sections can be occurred affected by installed environment conditions with high temperature as near the coastline and humidity or their poor maintenance situation. In bearing supports of steel bridges, especially, lower web and vertical stiffener in end girder support can be easily corroded because of relatively higher humidity due to the narrow space in the end of girder and the wetted accumulated sediments affected by rain water or antifreezing admixture leaked from expansion joint. It can be related to change in their structural performance. In this study, thus, bearing strength test specimens were fabricated considering corrosion damage in the web and vertical stiffeners and the change in their bearing strengths were experimentally evaluated. From the test results, localized corrosion damage of structural members in the end girder affected the bearing strength of end girder support, especially, localized corrosion damage of the vertical stiffener relatively highly affected their bearing strengths.

Recently, the depth of tunnel constructed is getting deeper, which increases difficulty in construction works. Deliberate tunneling techniques are needed as the span and length of tunnels are increased. As one of the technical developments for tunnel, U-shaped and reinforced spider lattice girders are developed by optimizing the spider used in 95mm lattice girder as tunnel steel ribs. In order to evaluate the load bearing capacity of the lattice girder, the 4-point flexural tests are carried out. For the laboratory tests, straight specimens are made for the existing lattice girder and the new lattice girder. The results of the flexural tests showed that the maximum load bearing capacity of the new lattice girders was higher than the traditional one. The load-displacement behavior of the test specimens showed the elasto-plastic behavior in the existing lattice girder and the stress softening behavior in the new lattice girder. It was found that the load bearing capacities are changed depending on the location of the loading points.

Form the application of long rail system the non-ballast steel plate bridges, fatigue strength increase and rail noise reduction can be expected. This is mainly form the reduction of the rail impact at the rail joint locations which already made to behave together from welds. In the high speed rail, application of long rail system is essential because without long rail system, the required serviceability level can not be achieved. But even with this long rail systems, the thermal expansion from the girder can not be absorbed in the normal bearing systems, and these expansion cause between girder and rail. Also unexpected rail buckling and fracture through rail thermal tension may happen. It was found through numerical analysis and field measurement that these problems can be avoided by semi-fixed bearing system. In this study, the benefits of non-ballast plate bridge through long rail system, especially at the point of girder stability, girder stiffness increase and bearing maintenance will be reviewed.
