이 연구에서는 국내 도로교 한계상태설계법에서 콘크리트부재의 설계를 위하여 적용하고 있는 재료계수의 문제점을 제기하고, 잘 정립된 최적화 과정에 의한 재료계수를 제안하였다. 신뢰도분석을 통하여 현 설계기준의 하중계수와 제안 재료계수가 목표신뢰도지수 보다 높은 신뢰도수준을 확보하고 있음을 보이고, 역신뢰도해석을 통하여 목표신뢰도지수를 잘 근사할 수 있는 하중계수를 제시하였다. 유로코드에서 제시하고 있는 기본 개념에 근거하여 신뢰도기반 하중-재료계수 결정법을 정식화하였다. 제안된 접근법이 신뢰도개념에 의하여 유도되었지만, 이 접근법에 의하여 계산된 하중-재료 계수가 목표신뢰도지수를 정확히 만족시키지 못하는 요인으로서 재료와 부재간에 존재하는 불확실성의 차이를 지적하고, 이러한 차이를 고려하지 않는 유로코드의 개념적 문제점을 제기하였다.

Bridge decks are one of the main structural components that are most suitable for utilizing the advantages of FRP materials due to the high strength weight ratio of FRP materials. Design codes for the design of FRP bridge decks should be established to apply FRP materials for bridge decks effectively. At present, design codes are relatively well established for the use of FRP materials as reinforcements in concrete structures. However, design codes have not yet been provided for the structures made of FRP as a main construction material. In this study, for the purpose of preparing design code provisions, reliability analyses were performed to evaluate target level of safety and serviceability on GFRP decks. Based on the results, several guidelines for the development of design codes are suggested.

In the existing bridge management systems, assessment of the structural behavior is based on the results of visual inspections in which corresponding condition states are assigned to individual elements. In this process, limited attention is given to the correlation between bridge elements from structural perspective. Also, the uncertainty of parameters which affect the structural capacity is ignored. A system reliability-based assessment model is potentially an appropriate replacement for the existing procedures. The aim of this research is to evaluate the system reliability of existing conventional Steel-Reinforced bridge decks over time. The developed method utilizes the reliability theory and evaluates the structural safety for such bridges based on their failure mechanisms. System reliability analysis has been applied to simply-supported concrete bridge superstructures designed according to the Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code (CHBDC-S6) and the deterioration pattern is achieved based on the reliability estimates. Finally, the bridge condition index of an old existing bridge in Montreal has been estimated using the developed deterioration pattern. The results obtained from the developed reliability-based deterioration model and from the evaluation done by bridge engineers have been found to be in accordance.

Based on the recent developments of the reliability-based structural analysis and design as well as the extending knowledge on the probabiliistic characteristics of load and resistances, the probability based design criteria have been successfully developed for many standards. Since the probabilistic characteristics depend highly on the local load and resistances, it is recognized to develop the design criterion compatible with domestic requirements. The existing optimum design methods, which are generally based on the structural theory and certain engineering experience, do not realistically consider the uncertainties of load and resistances and the basic reliability concepts. This study is directed to propose a optimum design based Expected Total Cost Minimization on P.S.C Box Girder Bridge system which could possibly replace optimum design based traditional provisions of the current code, based on the Neldel-Mead Method reliability theory.

Reliability analysis for a proposed limit state bridge design code is performed. In order to introduce reliability concept to design code, the proposed live load model is based on truck weight survey. Test data of domestic material strengths are collected to model statistical properties of member strengths. Sample RC and PSC girder sections are designed following the safety factor format of the proposed code and compared with the current design practice. Reliability indexes are calculated and examined for material and member resistance factor formats and sample calibrations of safety factors are presented. It is concluded that the proposed code provides reasonable level of reliability compared to the international design standards.

본 연구는 국내 콘크리트교량설계기준에 신뢰도기반 저항계수를 적용하기 위한 기초 연구로, 구조물의 설계강도를 산정하기 위하여 사용하는 저항계수체계에 따른 설계결과와 신뢰도지수를 비교분석하는 연구를 수행하였다. 현재 국내에서 적용하는 단면저항계수 및 유럽에서 사용하는 재료저항계수를 적용하여 콘크리트 빔 교량들에 대하여 동일한 설계를 수행한 결과를 비교분석하였다. 콘크리트 구조의 강도를 산정하는데 관련된 재료, 치수 및 해석의 불확실성을 고려하여 설계의 안전율인 신뢰도지수를 산정하고, 신뢰도지수에 큰 영향을 미치는 설계변수에 대한 민감도 분석을 수행하였다. 휨강도와 전단강도에 대하여 설계를 수행하였으며, 현행 국내 도로교설계기준, 미국 AASHTO LRFD, 유럽 Eurocode의 저항계수를 적용한 결과 국내 기준의 저항계수에 따른 설계의 신뢰도지수가 가장 컸으며, 활하중의 통계분포 형식에 따라 신뢰도지수에 차이가 있음을 보였다. 콘크리트 보의 휨과 전단에 대한 신뢰도지수에 미치는 영향은 철근의 항복강도와 활하중이 가장 큼을 민감도 분석결과를 통하여 알 수 있었다.

Reliability based limit state design method is replacing traditional deterministic designs such as allowable stress design and/or ultimate strength design methods in world trends. European design code(Eurocode) has adopted limit state design, and Korea road bridge design standard has also recently been transferred to limit state design method. In this trend, Korea railroad design standard is also preparing for adopting the same design concept. While safety factors are determined empirically in traditional design, load combinations as well as load factors are determined by solving limit state equations. General partial safety factors are evaluated by using AFORM(Advanced First Order Reliability Method) in the reliability based limit state design method. In this study sensitivity analysis is carried out for a dead load factor and a live load factor. Relative precisions of the dead load and the live load factors are discussed prior to the AFORM analysis. Furthermore the sectional forces of design and the material quantities required by two different design methods are compared for a PSC box girder railway bridge.

Because of financial and safety concerns, there are needs for more accurate prediction of bridge behavior. Underestimation of the bridge load carrying capacity can have serious economic consequences, as deficient bridges must be repaired or rehabilitated. Therefore, the knowledge of the actual bridge behavior under live load may lead to a more realistic calculation of the load carrying capacity and eventually this may allow for more bridges to remain in service with or without minor repairs. The presented research is focused on the reliability evaluation of the actual load carrying capacity of existing bridges based on the field testing. Seventeen existing bridges were tested under truck load to confirm their adequacy of reliability. The actual response of existing bridge structures under live load is measured. Reliability analysis is performed on the selected representative bridges designed in accordance with AASHTO codes for bridge component (girder). Bridges are first evaluated based on the code specified values and design resistance. However, after the field testing program, it is possible to apply the experimental results into the bridge reliability evaluation procedures. Therefore, the actual response of bridge structures, including unintentional composite action, partial fixity of supports, and contribution of nonstructural members are considered in the bridge reliability evaluation. The girder distribution factors obtained from the tests are also applied in the reliability calculation. The results indicate that the reliability indices of selected bridges can be significantly increased by reducing uncertainties without sacrificing the safety of structures, by including the result of field measurement data into calculation.
