  • 도로교의 대표적인 기초형식인 말뚝기초에 대한 내진설계방법으로 여러 가지 방법들이 제안되어 있다. 이 중 동적해석법과 같은 복잡한 절차에 의한 해석은 적용성에 한계가 있을 수 있고, 실무에서의 적용상 많은 어려움이 예상되었다. 본 연구에서는 등가정적해석법을 이용한 도로교 기초 말뚝에 대한 간편한 내진설계절차를 제안하였으며, 사례에 적용하였다. 또한, 제안된 간편한 내진설계절차에 사용할 수 있는 해석코드의 적용성을 확인하기 위하여 수식적 정해에 의한 계산결과를 기준 값으로 하여 해석코드에 의한 해석결과들을 비교.분석하였다. 또한, 지진 진동을 이용한 동적 해석결과와 SPS 상호작용(Superstructure - pile - soil interaction)을 고려한 해석결과를 수식적 정해에 의한 결과와 비교.분석하였다.

  • The abutment of bridge on soft foundation makes lateral movement due to the settlement of back fill and lateral flow. To measure the displacement of such a abutment, there are a lot of indirect method for measurement such as survey of leveling or inclinometer gauge around the abutment. But all of them are not sufficient to confirm the ground behavior and measure the exact lateral behavior of structure. As making the structure and pile cooperatively by measuring the movement of lateral displacement, for measuring the abutment displacement precisely by using the incliinometer. In this work, we try to suggest efficient measuring method of abutment displacement and its application.

  • Prior to modern seismic provisions, several bridges were not designed for seismic actions in moderate seismic areas. Precast multi-girder and slab bridges are typical highway overpass structures; they have a significant contribution to national bridge stocks. Since the seismic behavior is questionable, a preliminary parametric study is conducted to determine critical configurations and components. The results indicate that the behavior of the abutments, backfill soil, superstructure and foundation is normally satisfactory; however, the superstructure-abutment joints are critical for both single- and multi-span bridges, while the piers are also critical for longer multi-span configurations. The parametric results provide a solid basis both for detailed seismic assessment and development of design concepts of newly built structures in moderate seismic zones.

  • This research is experimental paper to prepare the structural safety of the upper bridge for support type on tunnel and the effect of settlement. Unit weight test and uni-axial compression test have been performed to simulate the physical property of foundation on the tunnel. Tunnel model of slip form type for centrifuge model has been developed to performed the tunnel excavation while field stress is activated. And the support type of tunnel such as umbrella arch method and large diameter steel pipe reinforce method has been tested for the centrifuge model. After the analysis of experiment, results show that internal displacement of large diameter steel pipe reinforce method is smaller than that of the umbrella arch method.

  • Recently, mechanical systems such as a high-speed vehicles and railway trains moving on flexible beam structures have become a very important issue to consider. Using the general approach proposed in the first part of this paper, it is possible to predict motion of the constrained mechanical system and the elastic structure, with various kinds of foundation supporting conditions. Combined differential-algebraic equation of motion derived from both multibody dynamics theory and finite element method can be analyzed numerically using a generalized coordinate partitioning algorithm. To verify the validity of this approach, results from the simply supported elastic beam subjected to a moving load are compared with the exact solution from a reference. Finally, parametric study is conducted for a moving vehicle model on a simply supported 3-span bridge.

  • Case studies published in Korea versus the low ground fault is applied on the bridge based on theory or experience in the design of pile bearing capacity by the value of the expression is designed to conduct field tests Disclosure Load bearing capacity value, the result of applying a reasonable construction cost savings of approximately 10 eokyeowon Has, in the design of site investigation was insufficient to require additional efforts. Apply the appropriate value from the extra support in the design of accurate ground survey and air speed to cut the budget and social technology can ensure the reliability was unknown.

  • For completing an fully optimized and prefabricated substructure system of bridge, developing pier of precast segment PSC which equip the connection structure of shear resistance and precast foundation are conducted previously. Specimens of coping of bridge were developed and customized, and experiments were performed. The result of the experiment through the result from a reliable non-linear analysis program (RCAHEST) were compared and analyzed and evaluated the stability and ultimate behavior of coping of precast pier.

  • This paper presents a simple model for studying the dynamic response of multi-span bridges resting on piers with different heights and subjected to earthquake forces acting transversely to the bridge, but varying spatially along its length. The analysis is carried out using the modal superposition technique, while the solution of the resulting integral-differential equations is obtained via the Laplace transformation. It has been found that the piers' height and the quality of the foundation soil can affect significantly the dynamic behavior of such bridges. Typical examples showing the effectiveness of the method are presented with useful results listed.

  • The EPS construction method-one kind of the load reducing methods-utilizes the EPS blocks, ultra-light materials whose unit weight is about 1/100 of soils and has been applied to many soft ground sites. It needed 3,000 days to get the 90% degree of the consolidation for the case of 12m high soil embankments on the 30m thick soft clayey foundations. The N value of SPT at this deposit was less than 5. The pack drain was installed to promote the radial consolidations. Although staged embankments were planned, designers failed to get a sufficient stability of the foundation ground. Therefore, the EPS fill method was selected to reduce the load and the construction period. EPS blocks(D-20 model) replaced the upper part of the soil embankments. These complex embankments reduced the ground settlement and the construction period. The possibility of lateral movements of the bridge abutments was checked and the design scheme was reviewed.

  • South anchorage(AN1, Myodo side) of supension bridge between Myodo and Gwangyang is designed as rock anchorage with 36m anchor length using the resistance of rock mass in Myodo. Checking the overall stability of the anchorage, we considered rock joints, bedding planes, fault zones and condition of rock structure in situ by analysis results for photo-lineaments, aerial photograph interpretation and drill-hole logs are considered. This anchorage consists of an access shaft, adit, and the upper and lower concrete bearing plate to introduce pre-stressing force into rock mass.
