전자기파가 콘크리트 교량 바닥판을 통과할 때 에너지 손실 메카니즘에 의해 신호의 감쇠가 발생하며, 이는 콘크리트의 상대유전율과 전도도, 그리고 지리적 산란 손실의 영향에 따른 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 건전한 콘크리트에 대해서는 레이더파의 감쇠가 상부철근의 깊이와 선형관계에 있다는 점에 착안하여, 일체식 콘크리트 교량 바닥판에서 상태평가 지표로서의 레이더파의 신호감쇠를 실 교량에 적용하여 그 유용성에 대해 검토하였다. 연구결과, 손상된 콘크리트 교량 바닥판에서는 건전한 상태에 비해 상대적으로 큰 감쇠가 일어나며, 레이더 수신파의 총감쇠량에서 반사체의 깊이에 대해 선형적 관계인 부분을 제거하고 난 보정감쇠량은 일체식 콘크리트 교량 바닥판의 상태평가에 유용한 것으로 나타났다. 실제 공용 중인 손상 교량 바닥판에 적용한 결과, 제안된 방법은 교면에서 상부철근까지의 콘크리트 상태를 신뢰성 있게 평가할 수 있으며, 특히, 일체식 바닥판의 주손상요인인 상부철근의 부식환경을 간접적으로 평가할 수 있는 것으로 판단된다.

Fatigue cracks of rib-to-deck (RD) joints have been frequently observed in the orthotropic steel decks (OSD) using conventional U-ribs (CU). Thickened edge U-rib (TEU) is proposed to enhance the fatigue strength of RD joints, and its effectiveness has been proved through fatigue tests. In-depth full-scale tests are further carried out to investigate both the fatigue strength and fractography of RD joints. Based on the test result, the mean fatigue strength of TEU specimens is 21% and 17% higher than that of CU specimens in terms of nominal and hot spot stress, respectively. Meanwhile, the development of fatigue cracks has been measured using the strain gauges installed along the welded joint. It is found that such the crack remains almost in semi-elliptical shape during the initiation and propagation. For the further application of TEUs, the design curve under the specific survival rate is required for the RD joints using TEUs. Since the fatigue strength of welded joints is highly scattered, the design curves derived by using the limited test data only are not reliable enough to be used as the reference. On this ground, an experiment-numerical hybrid approach is employed. Basing on the fatigue test, a probabilistic assessment model has been established to predict the fatigue strength of RD joints. In the model, the randomness in material properties, initial flaws and local geometries has been taken into consideration. The multiple-site initiation and coalescence of fatigue cracks are also considered to improve the accuracy. Validation of the model has been rigorously conducted using the test data. By extending the validated model, large-scale databases of fatigue life could be generated in a short period. Through the regression analysis on the generated database, design curves of the RD joint have been derived under the 95% survival rate. As the result, FAT 85 and FAT 110 curves with the power index m of 2.89 are recommended in the fatigue evaluation on the RD joint using TEUs in terms of nominal stress and hot spot stress respectively. Meanwhile, FAT 70 and FAT 90 curves with m of 2.92 are suggested in the evaluation on the RD joint using CUs in terms of nominal stress and hot spot stress, respectively.

교량을 건설함에 있어 물의 흐름에 영향을 받는 교량 하부 구조물에 대한 토질 및 구조역학적 기초 분석은 충분하지만 수리현상으로 발생하는 세굴의 안정성 검토는 미흡한 실정이다. 또한 교각세굴심 산정에 있어 해외 교각세굴심 산정식을 활용하고 있기에 국내 하천의 유역 특성을 반영한 교각세굴심을 정도 높게 산정하는데 미흡하다. 본 연구에서는 현재 우리나라 하천설계 기준에 적용되고 있는 CSU(1993)공식 뿐만 아니라 세굴심 산정에 있어 불확실성을 고려하기 위하여 다른 교각 세굴심 산정식을 추가로 적용하여 세굴심을 산정한 후 각각의 공식들 간에 적용성을 검토하였다. 검토 결과 기존 사용되고 있는 9개의 교각세굴심 산정식으로 산정된 교각 세굴심 깊이와 수리 모형실험을 바탕으로 측정된 세굴심과 비교하였을 경우 SSE(%)는 최소 2.08%, 최대 91.23%, SSEn(%)은 최소 0.19%, 최대 415.91%의 차이를 보이고 있음을 확인하였다. 그 결과, 교각세굴심 산정식 간에도 많은 차이가 있음을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 향후 하천설계에 있어 정도 높은 세굴심을 산정함에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Objectives: The objective of this study is to assess relative safety level of the decompression tables in Ministry of Employment and Labor Public Notice No. 2014-28 in comparison with overseas decompression tables. Methods: Decompression tables in the Public Notice No. 2014-28 were compared with examples from Japan, the USA, Canada, and France in terms of ascent rate, surface intervals after exceptional exposures, oxygen decompression and allowable partial pressure, depth limits in air diving, no-decompression limits, and decompression time and methods. Results: Public Notice No. 2014-28 does not include air diving depth limits, exceptional exposure limits, mandatory surface intervals after exceptional exposures, oxygen decompression, and surface decompression schedules. Its decompression time was found to be the shortest among the five decompression tables. Conclusions: Public Notice No. 2014-28 has the lowest safety level in comparison with overseas decompression tables. Deck decompression chambers are not applicable due to no regulations on surface interval and oxygen use in the chamber for decompression.

An experimental investigation of composite beams composed of wide flange steel and precast concrete is presented. The bottom flange of the steel section is encased in precast concrete. The composite beams tested in this study were designed to reduce the depth of the slab and beam. The slabs are constructed on top of the edges of the Structural Composite Hybrid System, instead of on top of the steel flange, decreasing the depth of the beams. When concrete is cast on the metal deck plate located on the edges of the precast concrete, the weight of the concrete slabs and other construction loads must be supported by the contacts between the steel and the precast concrete. This interface must not exhibit bearing failures, shear failures, and failures caused by torque due to the loading of the precast concrete. When the contact area between the concrete and the bottom flange of the steel beam is small, these failures of the concrete are likely and must be prevented. The premature failure of precast concrete must not also be present when the weight of the concrete slabs and other construction loads is loaded. This paper presents a load carrying capacity of Structural Composite Hybrid System in order to observe the failure mode. The symmetrically distributed loading that caused the failure of the composite beam was found. The paper also provides design recommendations of such type of composite structure.

Significant improvements in bond strength between new and existing concrete can be achieved through the modification of the new concrete by latex modification. But, no test method has been adopted as a standard to measure the bond strength between the concrete used to repair and the substrate being repaired. The performance of old and the new concrete construction depends upon bond strength between old and the new concrete. Current adhesion strength measurement method ignores the effect of stress concentration by shape of specimens. Therefore, this research calculates stress concentration coefficient using finite element analysis and direction tensile strength test (pull-off test). The result shows that the required core depth is 2.5cm. Elastic modulus and overlay thickness do not influence in stress concentration.

This paper deals with behaviors of PSC-Beam bridges according to continuity of spans. To analyze the long-term behavior of bridges, an analytical model which can simulate the effects of creep, the shrinkage of concrete, and the cracking of concrete slabs in the negative moment regions is introduced. To consider the different material properties across the sectional depth, the layer approach in which a section is divided into imaginary concrete and steel layers is adopted. The element stiffness matrix is constructed according to the assumed displacement field formulation, and the creep and shrinkage effects of concrete are considered in accordance with the first-order algorithm based on the expansion of the creep compliance. Correlation studies between analytical and experimental results are conducted with the objective to establish the validity of the proposed model. Besides, many uncertainties related to the continuity of spans are analyzed to minimize deck cracking at interior supports.

A very large floating structure has rather small motion characteristics as to the whole body, while the motion at end part of such structure becomes largest due to the elastic motion of the structure. This paper presents on the theoretical result on the relative motion characteristics and green water phenomena of VLFS in waves This phenomena affect not only to strength of the structure but also the determination of depth of structure. To predict motion responses of structure in regular waves, the source-dipole distribution method and F.E.M is used By irregular wave results, the probability of occurrence of green water and response of the structure were calculated.

This paper describes a three-dimensional approach to modeling the nonlinear behavior of partial-depth precast prestressed concrete bridge decks under increasing static loading. Six full-size panels were analyzed with this approach where the damage plasticity constitutive model was used to model concrete. Numerical results were compared and validated with the experimental data and showed reasonable agreement. The discrepancy between numerical and experimental values of load capacities was within six while the discrepancy of mid-span displacement was within 10 %. Parametric study was also conducted to show that higher accuracy could be achieved with lower values of the viscosity parameter but with an increase in the calculation effort.
