In high-speed railway (HSR) system, the structure-borne noise inside viaduct at low frequency has been extensively investigated for its mitigation as a research hotspot owing to its harm to the nearby residents. This study proposed a novel acoustic optimization method for declining the structure-borne noise in viaduct-like structures by separating the acoustic contribution of each structural component in the measured acoustic field. The structural vibration and related acoustic sourcing, propagation, and radiation characteristics for the viaduct box girder under passing vehicle loading are studied by incorporating Finite Element Method (FEM) with Modal Acoustic Vector (MAV) analysis. Based on the Modal Acoustic Transfer Vector (MATV), the structural vibration mode that contributes maximum to the structure-borne noise shall be hereinafter filtered for the acoustic radiation. With vibration mode shapes, the locations of maximum amplitudes for being ribbed to mitigate the structure-borne noise are then obtained, and the structure-borne noise mitigation performance shall be eventually analyzed regarding to the ribbing conduction. The results demonstrate that the structural vibration and structure-borne noise of the viaduct box girder mainly occupy both in the range within 100 Hz, and the dominant frequency bands both are [31.5, 80] Hz. The peak frequency for the structure-borne noise of the viaduct box girder is mainly caused by $16^{th}$ and $62^{th}$ vibration modes; these two mode shapes mainly reflect the local vibration of the wing plate and top plate. By introducing web plate at the maximum amplitude of main mode shapes that contribute most to the acoustic modal contribution factors, the acoustic pressure peaks at the field-testing points are hereinafter obviously declined, this implies that the structure-borne noise mitigation performance is relatively promising for the viaduct.

강합성 라멘교는 교대 일체식 교량과 같이 유지보수의 주된 원인이 되는 신축이음 및 받침이 생략되어 유지관리 및 구조적인 장점을 얻을 수 있는 교량 형식이다. 통상적인 강합성 라멘교는 강재로 제작된 거더의 일부를 교대에 매립하는 형태로 거더와 교대가 일체화된다. 거더를 교대에 매립하는 형태의 거더-교대 접합부는 시공상세가 복잡하고 접합부의 상세에 따라 공사비가 증가하는 원인이 될 수 있다. 최근, 기존 강합성 라멘교의 거더-교대 접합부의 시공상세를 간략화하여 시공효율 향상시킨 PIC 거더교가 제안되었다. PIC 거더교는, 거더를 교대에 매립하는 상세 대신, PS 강봉을 이용하여 거더와 교대를 일체화하는 접합부 상세를 가지고 있다. 이 연구에서는 PIC 거더교의 거더-교대 접합부에 대한 거동을 검토하기 위하여 실물모형실험체를 이용한 정적재하실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과, PS 강봉에 의해 체결되는 거더-교대 접합부는 충분한 내력을 확보하고 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 다만, 균열에 대한 사용성을 확보하기 위해서는 교대 상부에 발생하는 균열을 제어하기 위한 철근 배근이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

An analytical method considering axial equilibrium is proposed for the short- and long-term analyses of shear lag effect in reinforced concrete (RC) box girders. The axial equilibrium of box girders is taken into account by using an additional generalized displacement, referred to as the longitudinal displacement of the web. Three independent shear lag functions are introduced to describe different shear lag intensities of the top, bottom, and cantilever plates. The time-dependent material properties of the concrete are simulated by the age-adjusted effective modulus method (AEMM), while the reinforcement is assumed to behave in a linear-elastic fashion. The differential equations are derived based on the longitudinal displacement of the web, the vertical displacement of the cross section, and the shear lag functions of the flanges. The time-dependent expressions of the generalized displacements are then deduced for box girders subjected to uniformly distributed loads. The accuracy of the proposed method is validated against the finite element results regarding the short- and long-term responses of a simply-supported RC box girder. Furthermore, creep analyses considering and neglecting shrinkage are performed to quantify the time effects on the long-term behavior of a continuous RC box girder. The results show that the proposed method can well evaluate both the short- and long-term behavior of box girders, and that concrete shrinkage has a considerable impact on the concrete stresses and internal forces, while concrete creep can remarkably affect the long-term deflections.

Bridge fire hazard has become a growing concern over the last decade due to the rapid increase of ground transportation of hazardous materials and resulting fire incidents. The lack of fire safety provisions in steel bridges can be a significant issue owing steel thermal properties that lead to fast degradation of steel properties at elevated temperatures. Alternatively, the development of composite action between steel girders and concrete decks can increase the fire resistance of steel bridges and meet fire safety requirements in some applications. This paper reviews the fire problem in steel bridges and the fire behavior of composite steel-concrete bridge girders. A numerical model is developed to trace the fire response of a typical bridge girder and is validated using measurements from fire tests. The selected bridge girder is composed by a hot rolled steel section strengthened with bearing stiffeners at midspan and supports. A concrete slab sitting on the top of the girder is connected to the slab through shear studs to provide full composite action. The validated numerical model was used to investigate the fire resistance of real scale bridge girders and the effect of the composite action under different scenarios (standard and hydrocarbon fires). Results showed that composite action can significantly increase the fire resistance of steel bridge girders. Besides, fire severity played an important role in the fire behavior of composite girders and both factors should be taken into consideration in the design of steel bridges for fire safety.

The 1st and 2nd tension forces of the PSSC(Prestressed Steel and Concrete) girder constructed with commercial rolling beams and concrete are optimally designed. The design variables are the 1st and 2nd tension forces due to multi-step prestressing and live load. The objective function is set to the maximum live load. Design conditions are allowable stress at the top and bottom of slab, beam and infilled concrete due to a construction step. An Optimization of Matlab based program Is developed. The results show that the tendon position and concrete compression strength etc are important.

In corrosion-sensitive area of exsisting unpainted weathering steel bridge with closed box girder structure. there are some serious local corrosion problems because of rain water or dew water which can not be solved by conventional maintenance method. These problems must be technically controled because of the influence on the safety of bridge. This study is the first stage of developing the economic corrosion control manual for these local corrosion problems. Through the injecting experiment of tar sealant into the crevice of mock-up equipment, it was proofed that the corrosive sealant can be useful to corrosion control at crevice of corrosion sensitive area.

The paper presents results of parametric studies, and an overall approach for the design of a modular bridge system which incorporates a steel-reinforcement free concrete slab cast on top of carbon FRP stiffened deck panels which act as both structural formwork and flexural reinforcement, spanning between hollow box type FRP girders. Results of the parametric studies are highlighted to elucidate important relationships between critical configurational parameters and empirical equations based on numerical studies are presented. Results are discussed at the level of the individual deck and girder components, and as a slab-on-girder bridge system. An overall design methodology for the components and bridge system including critical performance checks is also presented.

모듈형 CFT 부재를 이용한 연속 강박스 거더의 단면강성 증대 및 프리스트레싱 공법은 긴장재로 프리스트레싱된 CFT 모듈을 강박스 거더 하부플랜지와 일체화한 후 긴장재를 제거함으로써 발생하는 CFT 모듈의 복원력을 강박스 거더 하부플랜지의 프리스트레싱력으로 이용하고 일체화된 CFT 모듈이 강박스 거더의 단면 강성을 향상시킨다. 본 연구에서는 CFT 모듈을 이용하여 일체화된 강박스 거더에 대한 프리스트레싱 도입의 적용성을 검토하기 위하여 하부플랜지를 모사한 실험체를 대상으로 CFT 모듈을 이용하여 프리스트레싱 도입 실험을 실시하고 유한요소해석으로 도입 프리스트레스를 평가하였다. 또한 실제 강박스 거더에 대한 프리스트레스 도입과 CFT 모듈을 통한 단면강성 증대효과를 확인하기 위하여 연속지점부에 적용 가능한 강박스 단면에 대하여 CFT 모듈에 도입된 프리스트레싱력 및 CFT 모듈의 단면제원에 따른 유한요소해석을 실시하고 이를 비교하였다.

PSC 거더의 단면 개선과 장경간화를 위한 주요 영향 요소는 단면 형상과 콘크리트 강도이며, 이중 콘크리트의 강도에 의한 영향은 거더의 휨강도 증가보다는 거더 상하연의 허용인장강도 증가에 크게 기여한다. 본 연구에서는 60MPa급 고강도 PSC를 논산-전주간 고속도로 확장공사 1공구 원수교의 거더에 시험 시공하였고, 논산방향 4차선에 35m 단경간 IPC 거더 8본에 타설하였다. 거더 콘크리트 타설 기간 중 지속적인 표면수 관리와 생산시 에어미터법을 사용하여 단위수량을 보정하여 고강도 콘크리트의 품질관리를 실시하였다. 현장 거더 콘크리트의 압축강도는 목표 강도를 안정적으로 확보함을 확인하였고, 거더 콘크리트의 수화열을 측정하였다. 하지만 동일재료와 시공방법을 사용하였음에도 강도의 편차가 다소 크게 나타나 향후 고강도 콘크리트를 현장에서 타설하여 적용할 경우 이에 대한 대책을 반드시 마련해야 할 것으로 판단된다.
