As few multi-tower single-box multi-cell cable-stayed bridges with corrugated steel webs have been built, analysis is mostly achieved by combining single-girder model, beam grillage model and solid model in support of the design. However, such analysis methods usually suffer from major limitations in terms of the engineering applications: single-girder model fails to account for spatial effect such as shear lag effect of the box girder and the relevant effective girder width and eccentric load coefficient; owing to the approximation in the principle equivalence, the plane grillage model cannot accurately capture shear stress distribution and local stress state in both top and bottom flange of composite box girder; and solid model is difficult to be practically combined with the overall calculation. The usual effective width method fails to provide a uniform and accurate "effective length" (and the codes fail to provide a unified design approach at those circumstance) considering different shear lag effects resulting from dead load, prestress and cable tension in the construction. Therefore, a novel spatial grid model has been developed to account for shear lag effect. The theoretical principle of the proposed spatial grid model has been elaborated along with the relevant illustrations of modeling parameters of composite box girder with corrugated steel webs. Then typical transverse and longitudinal shear lag coefficient distribution pattern at the side-span and mid-span key cross sections have been analyzed and summarized to provide reference for similar bridges. The effectiveness and accuracy of spatial grid analysis methods has been finally validated through a practical cable-stayed bridge.

Korea and Japan have done a lot of research on composite girders with corrugated steel webs and built many bridges with corrugated steel webs due to the significant advantages of this type of bridges. Considering the demanding on the calculation method of such types of bridges and lack of relevant reinforcement design method, this paper proposes the spatial grid analysis theory and tensile stress region method. First, the accuracy and applicability of spatial grid model in analyzing composite girders with corrugated steel webs was validated by the comparison with models using shell and solid elements. Then, in a real engineering practice, the reinforcement designs from tensile stress region method based on spatial grid model, design empirical method and specification method are compared. The results show that the tensile stress region reinforcement design method can realize the inplane and out-of-plane reinforcement design in the top and bottom slabs in bridges with corrugated steel webs. The economy and precision of reinforcement design using the tensile stress region method is emphasized. Therefore, the tensile stress region reinforcement design method based on the spatial grid model can provide a new direction for the refined design of composite box girder with corrugated steel webs.

많은 나라에서 기 시공된 교량의 보수 보강에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있고 많은 보고서와 인쇄물에서 이에 대해 강조되고 있다. 국내의 1960년대와 1970년대 사이에 시공된 교량은 상대적으로 적은 차량크기, 속도, 중량으로 설계되어 현재의 교통조건에 부적절하다. 다소의 설계오류와 함께 이는 많은 교량의 여러 결함을 유발한다. 보수 보강의 한 방법으로 많은 잇점을 가진 external post-tension tendon을 사용하는 것이고 본 논문에서 external post-tension을 이용한 3경간 연속 합성교량의 보강방안에 대해 기술한다.

Up to now, Japan has more than 200 corrugated steel web composite beam bridges which are under construction and have been constructed, and China has more than 30 corrugated steel web composite beam bridges. The bridge type includes the simply supported beam, continuous beam, continuous rigid frame and cable stayed bridge etc. The section form has developed to the single box and multi-cell box girder from the original single box and single chamber. From the stress performance and cost saving, the span range of 50~150 m is the most competitive. At present, the design mostly adopts the computational analytical method combining the spatial bar system model, plane beam grillage model and solid model. However, the spatial bar system model is short of the refinement analysis on the space effect, such as the shear lag effect, effective distribution width problem, and eccentric load factor problem etc. Due to the similarity of the plane beam grillage method in the equivalence principle, it cannot accurately reflect the shearing stress distribution and local stress of the top and bottom plates of the box type composite beam. The solid model is very difficult to combine with the overall calculation. Moreover, the spatial grid model can achieve the refinement analysis, with the integrity of the analysis and the comprehensiveness of the stress checking calculation, and can make up the deficiency of the analytical method currently. Through the example verification of the solid model and spatial grid model, it can be seen that the calculation results for the stress and the displacement of two models are almost consistent, indicating the applicability and precision of the spatial grid model.

곡선교의 경우 구조적인 기능이나 미관을 고려하여 강상자형교의 사용이 증가하고 있다. 강상자형교는 비틀림에 대한 강성이 뛰어나고 폐합단면을 가지므로 개단면에 비해 부식에 대해서 유리하며 가설 시에도 안정성을 갖는 장점이 있다. 곡선 강상자형교의 설계는 관용적으로 가로보의 강성을 이용하여 윤하중 횡분배를 유도하는 격자해석으로 실시되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 곡선강상자형교에 대하여 유한요소 해석을 실시하여 곡률, 가로보 및 다이아프램이 윤하중의 횡분배에 미치는 영향에 분석하였다. 해석결과 곡선교에서 곡률은 횡분배에 큰 영향을 미쳤으며 곡률이 증가할수록 분배계수가 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 지점부 다이아프램 외에 지간 중앙에 설치되는 다이아프램 1개는 윤하중의 횡분배와 구조적 안정성에 크게 기여하였으나 추가적인 다이아프램의 설치는 하중의 횡분배에 크게 영향을 주지 못하였다. 콘크리트 슬래브 강성은 가로보에 의한 횡분배 효과보다 크게 나타난 것으로 곡선 강박스교 설계 시에는 콘크리트 슬래브 강성의 횡분배 효과를 고려하여야 할 것이다.

본 논문에서는 압연형강(H형강)을 이용한 강합성 교량에 대한 3차원 유한요소 해석을 실시하여, 가로보가 활하중 횡 분배에 미치는영향에 대해 검토하였다. 고려된 주요 변수는 주형과 가로보의 단면2차모멘트비, 가로보의 설치 여부, 가로보의 개수 등이다. 유한요소 해석을 통한 활하중 횡분배 계수와 함께 관용적인 격자해석에 의한 활하중 횡분배 계수도 비교하였다. 분석결과에서 가로보는 활 하중 횡분배에 별다른 영향을 미치지 못하며, 콘크리트 바닥판이 활하중 횡분배에는 가장 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 활하중 횡분배를 목적으로 설치하는 가로보는 제거가 가능한 것으로 판단된다.
