최근 도시지역에서의 교량가설시 P.C BOX GR. 교량이 차지하는 비율이 점차 증가하면서 도심교통난 유발을 최소화 할 수 있는 가설공법에 대한 필요성이 증대되고 있는 상황에서 Precast Element를 이용하여 P.C BOX GR.의 Cantilever 길이를 길게하여 MAIN BOX GR.의 폭을 감소시켜 광폭(B=20M이상)의 상부구조물 일지라도 하부구조를 일주식 교각으로 설치가능할 뿐만 아니라 MAIN BOX GR. 가설시 어떤 가설공법도 적용가능하므로 현장여건에 가장 적합한 가설공법을 용이하게 P.C BOX GR. 공법을 소개하고자 한다.

This study is intended to discuss the application of expansive additives for concrete to improve the durability of precast concrete box culvert by inducing the chemical prestress. The precast concrete box culvert using expansive cement are tested to verify the effect of expansive additives. The results show that the initial cracking load and yielding load of the expansive cement numbers are increased when they are compared with those of the normal concrete. In the prototype precast concrete box culvert experiment, initial crack control effect and strength of joint are increased, but the deflection is decreased by expansive cement. Brides, reinforcement ratio is decreased about 14.6 percent in compering with the case of using normal cement. If can be the concluded that the use of expansive additives to induce the chemical prestress was improve the durability in concrete box culvert.

The newly proposed Precast Segmental Mettled (PSM), which makes use of precast elements for election, is relatively new, efficient and fast mettled for the construction of prestressed box girder bridges. A precast segment of 25m long pretensioned in the fabrication yard is transported by a special trailer and a launching truss to its final position. The segments are then connected in the site by post-tensioning to make a continuous prestressed concrete box girder bridges. The purpose of this parer is to analyze and evaluate the design of precast prestressed concrete box girder bridges. The detailed analyses including time-dependent behavior of PSM bridges are conducted. The major results and findings, which have been obtained from finite element analysis of PSM bridge, are discussed in this paper and these results will be a good base for the design and analysis of a new precast bridges.

In this study, the effect of blast furnace slag on precast concrete culvert was assessed by measuring the flexural strength using to full scaled box culvert. As a result, the initial cracking load and yield load of reinforced concrete box converts are increased in comparison with those of the normal concrete box culvert, but the ultimate load is decreased slightly. It can be concluded that use of blast furnace slag induce to flexural strength in precast concrete box culvert greatly improved the serviceability.

This study is intended to discuss the application of blast slag for concrete to improve the durability of precast concrete box culvert. The precast concrete box culverts with blast slag are tested to verify the effect of early strength. The results show that the initial cracking load and yielding load of the blast slag concrete members are increased when they are compared with those of the normal concrete. In the prototype precast concrete box culvert experiment, initial crack control effect and ductility index are increased. It can be concluded that the use of blast slag was improved the durability in precast concrete box culvert.

Recently, precast concrete products have been increasingly used in the construction of bridges except for special bridges like long-span bridge due to their easy and high-quality construction. Specially the use of precast prestressed concrete hollow box slab bridges is also increased due to the merits in their construction. Thus, an experimental evaluation of flexural behavior of the precast PSC hollow box slab bridges and a development of effective analytical technique for the behavior are necessary. For the development, experimental study on the flexural behavior of the precast bridges up to ultimate states is needed. In this study, two full-scale precast PSC hollow box slab girders are manufactured and full-scale flexural failure tests of the girders subjected to cyclic loading are carried out. For the failure analysis of the girders, the so-called volume control method is applied to finite element analysis of the precast PSC hollow box slab girders discretized using multi-layered shell elements. The analytical results by the volume control method is verified by comparing with test results.

The goal of this study is to show the way to increase the safety of deteriorated PSC beam bridges by the to-box reinforcing method. This method is to change the open girder section into the closed box section by connecting bottom flanges of neighboring PSC girders with the precast panels embedding PS tendons at the anchor block. The box section is composed of three concrete members with different casting ages, RC slab, PSC beam, precast panel. This different aging requires a time-dependent analysis considering construction sequences. Reliability index and failure probability are produced by the AFOSM reliability analysis. Transversely five schemes and longitudinally two schemes are considered. The full reinforcing scheme, transversely and longitudinally, shows the highest reliability index, but it requires more cost for retrofit. The partial reinforcing scheme 4, 4-1 are recommended in this study as the economically best scheme.

Bridges and tunnels mainly compose the structural system of Kyung-bu high-speed railway in Korea and the prestressed concrete box girder bridges are applied for the most part of bridge structures. Precast full span construction method was practiced in the construction of many prestressed concrete box girder bridges in Kyung-bu high speed railway for the high quality, great construction speed, low construction cost and construction safety. However, there have been no application of this method in continuous bridges until now. Therefore, a new advanced precast full span construction method is developed using pre-tensioning for precast and post-tensioning in alternating the simple span into a continuous bridge system. since the high-speed railway trains can cause dynamic problems in a continuous bridge. This study shows the structural behavior and the construction process of the new advance method.

In order to use a recycled aggregate concrete for precast concrete box structures, the structural behaviors should be analytically and experimentally evaluated. In this study, full-scale precast concrete box structures are manufactured using the recycled aggregate (30% replacement) and natural aggregate. Then, the flexural failure test and shear failure test as well as water leakage lest for the structures arc carried out. First of all, test results of compressive strength show that recycled aggregate concrete is only 4% lower than normal concrete. In the flexural and shear failure test, the structural performances of precast box using the recycled aggregate concrete are 95% of the capacities of normal precast concrete box or more. Especially, the water leakage test shows that leakage pressure of recycled concrete box is more than the critical value, 60kPa, as well as 9% higher than normal precast concrete box. These test results are analyzed and compared with results of finite clement analysis. The comparison shows that test results are more excellent than analytical results. Also, the comparison confirms the applicability of recycled aggregate concrete for the use as practical precast concrete box structure.

One of the main objectives of this study is to propose a realistic limit state model for reliability-based safety assessment of precast segmental prestressed concrete box girder bridges, considering 1) combined effects of bending, shear and torsional forces, and 2) the difference between transverse reinforcments of box girder. A improved limit state model is derived from a modified interaction equation compared with the Bruno's equation. A Drectional sampling algorithm is used for reliability analysis of the proposed model.
