In order to apply a precast deck to continuous composite bridges, several experiments and analytical studies were performed. Design criterion for crack prevention should be such that it does not permit tension at the joint to occur when the service loads are applied. Details of the shear pocket for studs and material properties of filler in the pocket and the joint are very important considerations in design and construction. Combination of longitudinal prestressing methods, internal tendon and prestressing after shear connection, should be used for prevention of cracking in continuous precast deck bridges. Design guides for the determination of prestressing force are suggested.

Creep, drying shrinkage, modulus of elasiticity and Poisson's ratio of concrete are influenced by a number of factors such as mix type, member thickness, curing condition and loading cases. Particularly, creep and shrinkage in concrete have yet to be studied due to its complicated time-dependent properties. In this study, the concrete creep tests were carried out at varous ages of loading-7, 28, 90, 180 and 365 days in order to investigate and quantify its long-term properties. The test procedures and analysis of the test results were also described herein. The results of this study will enable A/E to calculate effective prestressing forces considering time-dependent prestressing loss and evaluate the structural integrity of the prestressing system using the representative values derived from this property test.

A fibered element for the material and geometric nonlinear analysis of three-dimensional reinforced and prestressed concrete frame is presented. The fibered frame element is idealized as an assemblage of concrete and reinforcing steel fibers in order to account for varied material properties within the cross section of the frame element through elastic, cracking and ultimated stages of materials. Prestressing tendon is modeled as an assemblage of multilinear prestressing steel segments each of which spans a frame element. The contribution of each prestressing steel is added directly to the fibered frame element. Numerical results from the ultimate analysis of three-dimensional PSC box girder are compared with those obtained from other investigator. The validity and the capability of the present nonlinear analysis model is well demonstrated.

이 논문에서는 긴장력 도입을 위한 강선의 용접절단순서가 강선의 변형률과 콘크리트 응력에 미치는 영향 을 실험과 유한요소해석을 통해 고찰하였다. 실험에서는 각각 다른 3개의 용접절단순서에 따른 강선과 횡방향 보강 철 근의 변형률 변화를 계측하였다. 해석에서는 실험과 동일한 조건에 대한 유한요소해석을 수행하였으며, 그 결과를 실험 결과와 비교·고찰하였다. 연구 결과, 강선의 변형률과 횡방향 보강근의 변형률이 긴장재의 절단순서에 따라 다른 결과 를 나타내는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 이 결과는 해석을 통하여도 검증되었다. 따라서 프리스트레스 구조물의 시공시 구 조특성에 따라 적절한 절단순서의 조절이 고려되어야 한다.

This paper presents the details of a novel external prestressing technique for strengthening of concrete members. In the proposed technique, transfer of external force is in shear mode on the end block thus creating a complex stress distribution and the required transverse prestressing force is lesser compared to conventional techniques. Steel brackets are provided on either side of the end block for transferring external prestressing force and these are connected to the anchor blocks by expansion type anchor bolts. In order to validate the technique, an experimental investigation has been carried out on post-tensioned end blocks. Performance of the end blocks have been studied for design, cracking and ultimate loads. Slip and slope of steel bracket have been recorded at various stages during the experiment. Finite element analysis has been carried out by simulating the test conditions and the responses have been compared. From the analysis, it has been observed that the computed slope and slip of the steel bracket are in good agreement with the corresponding experimental observations. A simplified analytical model has been proposed to compute load-deformation of the loaded steel bracket with respect to the end block. Yield and ultimate loads have been arrived at based on force/moment equilibrium equations at critical sections. Deformation analysis has been carried out based on the assumption that the ratio of axial deformation to vertical deformation of anchor bolt would follow the same ratio at the corresponding forces such as yield and ultimate. It is observed that the computed forces, slip and slopes are in good agreement with the corresponding experimental observations.

원전 격납건물의 축대칭 모델은 해석상의 간편성으로 인하여 널리 사용된다. 하지만, 일반적인 돔 텐던의 배치는 축대칭 형상이 아니며 곡률을 가진 돔에 임의로 배치된 관계로 축대칭 근사화시 좀 더 엄밀한 수학적 유도가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 국내의 CANDU형 및 한국형 격납건물 돔에 비축대칭으로 배치된 텐던을 축대칭 모델에 적용하기 위한 합리적인 변환 절차를 제안하였다. 텐던 강성의 모델링에서는 실제 3차원으로 배치된 돔 텐던의 자오선방향 및 원환방향으로의 강성 기여를 고려할 수 있도록 텐던을 등가의 층으로 근사화하였다. 프리스트레싱의 효과는 등가하중법 및 초기응력법 관점에서 고찰하였으며, 축대칭 모델의 방법론에 적합하도록 등가하중 및 초기응력을 유도하였다. 후속 논문에서는 제안된 모델을 적용한 수치 예제들을 범용구조해석 프로그램으로 해석하고 타당성을 검증하였다.

This paper presents a study on the prediction of transfer length of 13 mm seven-wire prestressing steel strand in pretensioned prestressed concrete members with rectangular cross-section including several material properties and design and manufacture parameters. To this end, a carefully selected database consisting of 207 different cases coming from 18 different sources spanning a variety of practical transfer length prediction situations was compiled. 16 single input features and 5 combined input features are analyzed. A widely used feedforward neural regression model was considered as a representative of several machine learning methods that have already been used in the engineering field. Classical multiple linear regression was also considered in order to comparatively assess performance and robustness in this context. The results show that the implemented model has good prediction and generalization capacity when it is used on large input data sets of practical interest from the engineering point of view. In particular, a neural model is proposed -using only 4 hidden units and 10 input variables-which significantly reduces in 30% and 60% the errors in transfer length prediction when using standard linear regression or fixed formulas, respectively.

The traditional design procedure of a prestressed concrete (PC) cable-stayed bridge is complex and time-consuming. The designers have to repeatedly modify the configuration of the large number of design parameters to obtain a feasible design scheme which maybe not an economical design. In order to efficiently achieve an optimum design for PC cable-stayed bridges, a multi-parameter optimization technique is proposed. In this optimization technique, the number of prestressing tendons in girder is firstly set as one of design variables, as well as cable forces, cable areas and cross-section sizes of the girders and the towers. The stress and displacement constraints are simultaneously utilized to ensure the safety and serviceability of the structure. The target is to obtain the minimum cost design for a PC cable-stayed bridge. Finally, this optimization technique is carried out by a developed PC cable-stayed bridge optimization program involving the interaction of the parameterized automatically modeling program, the finite element structural analysis program and the optimization algorithm. A low-pylon PC cable-stayed bridge is selected as the example to test the proposed optimization technique. The optimum result verifies the capability and efficiency of the optimization technique, and the significance to optimize the number of prestressing tendons in the girder. The optimum design scheme obtained by the application can achieve a 24.03% reduction in cost, compared with the initial design.

본 논문에서는 CFRP판으로 긴장 보강된 철근콘크리트 보의 부착파괴를 해석하기 위한 수정된 부착파괴 모델를 제안하였다. 부착파괴 모델은 한정된 실험결과로부터 발생할 수 있는 오류를 줄이기 위해 선행연구자들의 실험결과를 통계적으로 분석하여 제안하였다. 부착 CFRP판으로 긴장 보강된 보에 대한 실험을 통해 긴장 보강 시스템에서 최종파괴 이전에 부착파괴가 발생하는 것을 확인하였으며, 부착파괴 변형률은 유효프리스트레스의 크기에 따라 증가하는 것을 검증하였다. 따라서 부착거동 특성 연구에서 도출된 부착파괴 해석모델은 긴장 시스템에 적합하도록 유효프리스트레스를 고려할 수 있도록 수정 제안하였다.
