For the construction of open-topped steel box girder bridges, prefabricated concrete slab could offer several advantages over cast-in-situ deck including good quality control, fast construction, and elimination of the formwork for concrete slab casting. However, precast decks without reinforcements at transverse joints between precast slabs should be designed to prevent the initiation of cracking at the joints, because the performance of the joint is especially crucial for the integrity of a structural system. Several prestressing methods are available to introduce proper compression at the joints, such as internal tendons, external tendons and support lowering after shear connection. In this paper, experimental results from a continuous composite bridge model with precast decks are presented. Internal tendons and external tendons were used to prevent cracking at the joints. Judging from the tests, precast decks in negative moment regions have the whole contribution to the flexural stiffness of composite section under service loads if appropriate prestressing is introduced. The validity of the calculation of a cracking load fur serviceability was presented by comparing an observed cracking load and the calculated value. Flexural behavior of the continuous composite beam with external prestressing before and after cracking was discussed by using the deflection and strain data.

This study is to develop a strengthening method for slab bridges with external prestressing. There are so many different strengthening methods for damaged slab bridges, external prestressing method is the most effective, economical and durable strengthening method among them. But, its problem lies in anchoring devices, so recently, an effective anchoring method was developed and showed its improvements. In this study, a more improved method is suggested. Longitudinal tendons placed on both side of slab strengthens the whole bridge, and lateral tendons placed under the slab strengthens the middle of slab, and conveys the load at middle slab to both sides. Structural analysis for the tensile force for strengthening were analysed. Generally, 200-280tons for longitudinal tendon and 130-190 tons for lateral tendons are good enough to strengthen the damaged slab. This method has no upward roof work, so it is very convenient for installing. And no spaces under the slab are need, so it is good for shallow slabs which has less space under the slab.

외부강선으로 보강된 철근콘크리트 보에 대한 기존 연구 대상은 과보강 철근콘크리트 보가 대부분이다. 그러나 이러한 저보강 철근콘크리트 보에 대한 외부 강선 보강은 보강 텐던의 양이 아주 적어서 외부 강선의 보강 효과를 명확하게 분석할 수 없다는 문제점이 있다. 이러한 이유로 본 연구에서는 손상된 저보강 철근콘크리트 보를 외부강선으로 보강한 경우를 선택하여 연구를 수행하고자 하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 실험을 통하여 보강 효과를 평가하고 적절한 보강방법을 찾기 위해서 7개의 실험 부재를 제작하여 휨거동 실험을 실시하였다. 실험 결과에 의하면, 강선량이 증가할수록 보강효과는 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며, 특히 에폭시 레진으로 균열을 보수하면 그 효과는 더욱 커지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 외부 강선의 극한응력에 대한 AASHTO 1994와 ACI-318 설계식은 실험결과와 잘 일치하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 본 연구의 결과는 향후 손상된 철근콘크리트 보의 적정 보강 방법을 제시하는 데 효과적일 것으로 예상된다.

최근 사용되고 있은 구조물의 보강 방법 중 내력 및 사용성 향상효과가 타 공법에 비해 월등한 외부 긴장공법이 많이 사용되고 있다. 그러나 외부 긴장재로 보강된 구조물에 대하여 반복하중에 의한 피로 성능에 대한 평가가 부족하고 이에 대한 연구도 매우 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 FRP 긴장재로 외부 보강된 철근콘크리트 보의 반복하중에 따른 피로거동 특성을 분석함으로써 외부 긴장공법의 안전성 및 타당성을 평가하고자 하였다. 본 실험연구에서는 비교 변수로 외부 긴장재의 종류(FRP 긴장재, Steel 긴장재)와 하중범위를 채택하여 실험을 실시하였다. 하중은 FRP 보강 시험체의 항복강도를 기준으로 최소하중을 50%로 삼고 최대하중을 70~85%로 변경하여 4점 재하방식으로 sine파를 이용하여 3Hz의 주기로 실험을 실시하였다. FRP 긴장재로 외부 보강된 철근콘크리트 보에 대한 피로 실험연구 결과로부터 FRP 외부 긴장 공법은 FRP 긴장재, deviator에서의 절곡부, 정착장치 등에서 피로에 대한 충분한 안전성이 확인되었다.

Recently, the external prestressed concrete structures are increasingly being built. The mechanical behavior of prestressed concrete beams with unbonded tendon is different from that of normal bonded PSC beams in that the increment of tendon stress was derived by whole member behavior. By this reason, the ultimate stress of external tendon is smaller than that of bonded tendon or internal unbonded tendon. However, in the domestic and abroad code, the equation of ultimate stress of external tendon is not suggested yet, and the equation of ultimate stress of internal unbonded tendon is used instead of that of external tendon. Therefore, in this paper, after effective variables of ultimate stress of external tendon were analyzed, the analytical equation of ultimate stress of external tendon was proposed. And the reasonable coefficients were proposed by statistical work of test results of 25 beam with external tendon. Finally, the practical proposed equation of ultimate stress of external tendon was proposed with analytical and statistical model. The equation of ACI-318 and AASHTO 1994 were not matched with test results and had no correlations, and the proposed equation was well matched with test results. So the proposed equation in this paper will be a effective basis for the evaluation of external tendons in analysis and design.

The member with external unbonded tendon has two remarkable characteristics, i.e., eccentricity variation and slip by friction force at deviators, compared with internal bonded or unbonded member. An efficient numerical procedure for the nonlinear analysis of prestressed concrete beam with external unbonded tendon considering two remarkable characteristics is formulated and corresponding computer code is developed. On the basis of statistical process of parametric study results, strain compatibility method, eccentricity variation predictor and tendon stress predictor at ultimate state are proposed and verified with test results and existing Codes, which can evaluate flexural behavior at ultimate state. Finally, the proposed procedure and predictors can be efficiently used for the realistic and accurate analysis of prestressed concrete members with external unbonded tendons.

Flexural capacity prediction is a challenging problem for externally prestressed concrete beams (EPCBs) due to the unbonded phenomenon between the concrete beam and external tendons. Many prediction equations have been provided in previous research but typically ignored the differences in deformation mode between internal and external unbonded tendons. The availability of these equations for EPCBs is controversial due to the inconsistent deformation modes and ignored second-order effects. In this study, the deformation characteristics and collapse mechanism of EPCB are carefully considered, and the ultimate deflected shape curves are derived based on the simplified curvature distribution. With the compatible relation between external tendons and the concrete beam, the equations of tendon elongation and eccentricity loss at ultimate states are derived, and the geometric interpretation is clearly presented. Combined with the sectional equilibrium equations, a rational and simplified flexural capacity prediction method for EPCBs is proposed. The key parameter, plastic hinge length, is emphatically discussed and determined by the sensitivity analysis of 324 FE analysis results. With 94 collected laboratory-tested results, the effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed, and comparisons with the previous formulas are made. The results show the better prediction accuracy of the proposed method for both stress increments and flexural capacity of EPCBs and the main reasons are discussed.

The external, unbonded prestressed concrete(PSC) members exhibit very different structural behavior from that of internal bonded PSC members because of eccentricity change and slip occurrence during loading process. The purpose of the present study is to propose the ultimate failure stresses of prestressing (PS) steels for those external unbonded PSC members. To this end, a comprehensive analysis has been made using the nonlinear finite element analysis program developed recently for external unbonded PSC members by authors. A series of major influencing variables have been included in the analysis. It was found that the span-depth ratio, neutral axis depth-effective depth ratio, load geometry, amount of ordinary steel, and prestressing steel ration have great influence for the ultimate failue stress of PS steel is preposed and is compared with experimental dat as well as existing formulas for internal unbonded members. The Comparison indicates that the proposed equation agrees relatively well with experimental data and that existing formulas including ACI and AASHTO equations show some discrepancies from experimental ones. The present study allows more realistic analysis and design of prestressed concrete structures with external unbonded tendons.
