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.

Nearly 400 composite railway bridge decks of a new kind belonging to the trough type with U-shaped cross section have been constructed in Belgium over the last fifteen years. The construction of these bridge decks is rather complex with the preflexion of precambered steel girders, the prestressing of a concrete slab and the addition of a 2nd phase concrete. Until now, they have been designed with a classical computation method using a pseudo-elastic analysis with modular ratios. Globally, they perform according to the expectations but variability has been observed between the measured and the computed camber of these bridge decks just after the transfer of prestressing and also at long-term. A statistical analysis of the variability of the relative difference between the measured camber and the computed camber is made for a sample of 36 bridge decks using no less than 10 variables. The most significant variables to explain this variability at prestressing are the ratio between the maximum tensile stress reached in the steel girders during the preflexion and the yield strength and the type of steel girder. For the same sample, the long-term camber under permanent loading is computed by two methods and compared with measurements taken one or two years after the construction. The camber computed by the step-by-step method shows a better agreement with the measured camber than the camber computed by the classical method. The purpose of the paper is to report on the statistical analysis which was used to determine the most significant parameters to consider in the modeling in order to improve the prediction of the behaviour of these composite railway bridge decks.

The results of the application of shape memory alloy (SMA) prestressing devices on an aqueduct are presented in this paper. The aqueduct was built in 1747 to provide water to the city of Larnaca and to its port. Because of its importance to the cultural heritage of Cyprus, the aqueduct has been selected as one of the case-study monuments in the project Wide-Range Non-Intrusive devices toward Conservation of Historical Monuments in the Mediterranean Area (WIND-CHIME). The Department of Antiquities of Cyprus, acting in a pioneering way, have given their permission to apply the devices in order to investigate their effectiveness in providing protection to the monument against probable catastrophic effects of earthquake excitation. The dynamic characteristics of the structure were determined in two separate occasions and computational models were developed that matched very closely the dynamic characteristics of the structure. In this paper the experimental setup and the measured changes in the dynamic characteristics of the monument after the application of the SMA devices are described.

The analysis of relation between critical sections and ratios Is done. Also, connection between critical sections and design variable is analyzed. In order to resolve the effects of the lifting two supports method, sections which was designed with the existing method, lifting support method, are used. Finally, it is proved that the new method is more efficient than the existing methods in economy and structure.

This paper proposed a conceptual design of bascule bridge, which is a new kind of movable bridge with an aim of reducing the weight of superstructure. Compared with the traditional bascule bridge, the light bascule bridge chooses cable-stayed bridge with inclined pylon as its superstructure; therefore, the functions of balance-weight and structure will fuse into one. Otherwise, it adopts moving counterweight to adjust its center of gravity (CG) to open or close the bridge. In order to lighten the superstructure, it uses contact springs to auxiliary retract, and intelligent prestressing system (IPS) to control the main girder's deformation. Simultaneously the vibration control scheme of structure is discussed. Starting from establishing the mechanical model of bridge, this article tries to analyze the conditions that the design parameters of structure and attachments should satisfy to. After the design procedure was presented, an example was also adopted to explain the primary design process of this kind bridge.

Anchorage devices play an important role in post-tensioned bridge structures since they must sustain heavy loads in order to permit the transfer of the prestressing force to the structure. In external prestressing, the situation is even more critical since the anchorage mechanisms, with the deviators, are the only links between the structure and the tendons throughout the service life of the structure. The behaviour of anchorage devise may be studied by using the finite element method. To do so, each component of the anchorage must be adequately represented in order to approximate the anchor mechanism as accurately as possible. In particular, the modelling of the jaw/tendon device may be carried out using the real geometry of these two components with an appropriate constitutive contact law or by replacing these components by a single equivalent. This paper presents the numerical study of a mono-strand anchorage device. The results of a comparison between two different representations of the jaw/tendon device, either as two distinct components or as a single equivalent, will be examined. In the double-component setup, the influence of the wedge configuration composing the jaw, and the influence of lubrication of the anchor, will be assessed.

CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced polymer) 긴장재는 PC 강연선의 부식문제를 해결하기 위해 대안으로 사용될 수 있다. CFRP 긴장재를 콘크리트구조물에 적용하기 위해서는 부착강도, 전달길이, 정착길이와 같은 재료적 특성이 명확히 결정되어야 한다. 특히 프리텐션 콘크리트 부재에 CFRP 긴장재가 적용될 경우 전달길이는 긴장력 도입에 있어서 중요한 요소가 된다. 본 연구에서 개발된 CFRP 전달길이 및 정착길이를 산정하기 위해 프리텐션 보 9개를 제작하였다. 전달길이 실험결과, 긴장력 25%인 경우는 34D, 긴장력 50%인 경우는 55D로 측정되었고, 긴장력이 커지면 전달길이가 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 시간경과에 따른 전달길이 변화를 살펴보면, 긴장력의 크기에 따라 시간경과가 전달길이에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 보강재 특성계수 산정 결과, 본 연구에서 개발된 CFRP 긴장재의 보강재-특성 계수 ${\alpha}_t$는 2.3으로 PS강연선 (${\alpha}_t=2.4$)과 비슷한 것으로 나타났다.

Friction in a post-tensioning system has a significant effect on the distribution of the prestressing force of tendons in prestressed concrete structures. However, attempts to derive friction coefficients using conventional electrical resistance strain gauges do not usually lead to reliable results, mainly due to the damage of sensors and lead wires during the insertion of strands into the sheath and during tensioning. In order to overcome these drawbacks of the existing measurement system, the Smart Strand was developed in this study to accurately measure the strain and prestressing force along the strand. In the Smart Strand, the core wire of a 7-wire strand is replaced with carbon fiber reinforced polymer in which the fiber Bragg grating sensors are embedded. As one of the applications of the Smart Strand, friction coefficients were evaluated using a full-scale test of a 20 m long beam. The test variables were the curvature, diameter, and filling ratio of the sheath. The analysis results showed the average wobble and curvature friction coefficients of 0.0038/m and 0.21/radian, respectively, which correspond to the middle of the range specified in ACI 318-08 in the U.S. and Structural Concrete Design Code in Korea. Also, the accuracy of the coefficients was improved by reducing the effective range specified in these codes by 27-34 %. This study shows the wide range of applicability of the developed Smart Strand system.

이 연구에서는 연속 거더교의 외부강선 보강 효과를 극대화할 수 있는 효율적인 방법을 도출하였다. 등가하중개념을 적용하여 기존 방법 대비 제안된 보강 방법의 개선점을 명확히 분석하였다. 보강 효과의 검증을 위해 연속보의 외부강선 보강 실험을 실시하여 외부강선에 의한 내하력 향상 효과를 고찰하였다. 연속보 실험체는 콘크리트 거더 연속교의 일반적인 시공법과 동일하게 바닥판 슬래브 부분만을 연속화하여 제작하였다. 실험 결과 동일한 크기의 외력이 작용할 때 외부강선이 보강된 실험체는 보강되지 않은 실험체에 비해 처짐이나 변형률이 대폭 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 부재의 강성도 또한 증가하였다. 특히 제안된 방법은 연속교 중간 지점부의 부모멘트에 의한 바닥판의 인장응력을 효과적으로 감소시킬 수 있음이 확인되었다.

이 논문에서는 비부착 CFRP 판으로 긴장된 RC(Reinforced Concrete) 보의 비선형 해석방법을 제시하였다. 하중 재하 시 부재의 단면 내에서 변화하는 재료상태를 정확히 예측하기 위해 철근콘크리트 뼈대는 콘크리트와 보강철근 화이버로 구성된 화이버모델요소로 이상화하였다. 또한 CFRP 판의 비부착 거동을 모사하기 위해 CFRP 판을 뼈대요소의 각 절점에 연결되는 여러 개의 요소로 이상화하되, 연결부에서 슬립이 가능한 것으로 가정하여 슬립으로 인한 CFRP 판의 인장력을 반복적으로 보정함으로써 CFRP 판요소들의 응력이 같도록 하였다. 이 논문에서 제시한 해석방법의 정당성을 검토하기 위해 비부착 CFRP 판으로 긴장된 RC 보의 극한해석을 수행하여 해석결과를 타 연구자의 실험결과와 비교해 본 결과, 두 연구결과가 잘 일치함을 확인하였다.
