프리캐스트 콘크리트 바닥판 교량의 적용이 2거더 교량이나 개구제형 강박스 교량으로 확대되고 있다. 소수거더교에 프리캐스트 바닥판 교량의 적용에서 가장 어려운 점은 완전합성을 확보하기 위해 필요한 전단연결재의 배치이다. 좁은 영역에 많은 연결재를 배치해야 하기 때문에 프리캐스트 바닥판의 단면 손실이 커서 철근의 배치가 어렵게 된다. 이 논문에서는 현재 설계 기준에서 제시하고 있는 스터드 전단연결재의 최소 간격보다 좁은 연결재 간격을 가질 경우의 극한 강도 특성을 정적 실험을 통해 평가하였다. 실험결과로부터 최소 간격보다 좁은 간격으로 배치할 경우에 현재의 설계기준 강도보다 낮은 극한 강도를 발현하는 것으로 나타났고 프리캐스트 슬래브의 보강 혹은 포켓부의 부분보강의 효과로 인해 강도 증진이 나타났다. 그룹 스터드 전단연결부의 설계는 연결재 전단강도와 콘크리트 슬래브의 강도의 상대적인 비로부터 파괴모드를 예측하고 연결재 파괴를 유도할 수 있도록 이루어져야 한다. 실험결과로부터 스터드 간격을 고려한 그룹 스터드 전단연결부의 극한강도에 대한 경험식을 제안하였다. 피로실험을 수행한 결과로부터 이 연구의 실험범위내에서는 그룹스터드 전단연결부의 피로강도 감소가 나타나지 않는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 연구결과를 활용하여 프리캐스트 바닥판의 상세를 개선하였다.

Existing design codes for steel-concrete composite structures give only general information about the shear connection provided by headed studs in group arrangement. Grouting of the openings in prefabricated concrete slabs, where the grouped headed studs are placed in the deck pockets is alternative to cast-in-place decks to accomplish fast execution of composite structures. This paper considers the possibility to reduce the distance between the studs within the group, bellow the Eurocode limitations. This may lead to increased competitiveness of the prefabricated construction because more studs are placed in the group if negative effectives of smaller distances between studs are limited. The main purpose of this work is to investigate these limits and propose an analytical calculation model for prediction of the shear resistance of grouped stud arrangements in the deck pockets. An advanced FEA model, validated by results of push-out experiments, is used to analyze the shear behavior of the grouped stud with smaller distance between them than recommended by EN 1994-1. Calculation model for shear resistance, which is consistent with the existing Eurocode rules, is proposed based on a newly introduced equivalent diameter of the stud group, $d_G$. The new calculation model is validated by comparison to the results of FE parametric study. The distance between the studs in the longitudinal direction and the number of stud rows and columns in the group are considered as the main variables.

강합성교량 상부 구조의 단면 단순화 경향과 더불어 프리캐스트 교량과 같이 전단연결재를 위한 전단포켓의 등간격 배치를 필요로 하는 전단연결부의 설계를 위해서 대직경 스터드가 제안되었다. 25mm 이상의 직경을 가진 스터드 전단연결재에 대한 push-out 실험 결과를 바탕으로 합성보에서의 거동을 평가하기 위하여 40% 합성정도를 가진 부분합성보를 제작하여 정적실험을 수행하였다. 전단연결재의 직경과 배치를 변수로 설계된 부분합성보의 극한 강도 및 수평전단력의 재분배를 평가하고 전단지간내의 스터드들의 그룹파괴를 확인하였다. 전단연결부의 강도가 부분합성보의 강도를 지배하기 때문에 이로부터 전단연결재의 전단강도를 평가하였는데 push-out 실험결과에 비해서 상당히 높은 수준의 강도 증가를 보여주었다. 하중-상대변위 곡선으로부터 대직경 스터드의 합성보에서의 충분한 연성과 하중재분배 능력을 확인하였다. 대직경 스터드를 적용하여 등간격 배치를 할 경우에 정적 거동에는 문제가 없는 것으로 나타났다.

경간 40m~100m 정도 경간에 대해 일반적으로 강 박스 거더교에 대한 설계가 이루어지고 있다. 상부구조의 자중을 줄이기 위해서 복합트러스 교량에서 복부의 콘크리트 웹 대신에 강 사재가 사용되고 있다. 이러한 복합트러스 교량의 설계 시 가장 중요한 부분 중의 하나가 콘크리트 상 하부를 연결하는 연결부의 형태이다. 이러한 접합부는 외부에서 작용하는 조합하중을 분담해야하는데, 아직 이러한 접합구조에 대한 명확한 설계기준이 없는 실정이다. 한계상태에서 격점부의 하중전달에 대한 명확한 연구와 설계방법에 대한 조사가 필요하다. 콘크리트 상 하부를 연결하는 격점부 사재는 다양한 연결형태가 있다. 이번 논문에서는 거셋 플레이트에 용접되어진 그룹 스터드 연결재에 관한 연구가 수행되었다. 25mm 절곡 스터드를 사용하여 수행된 전단실험을 통하여 현재의 스터드 간 최소기준 간격을 만족하는 상태에서는 현재의 설계 규정을 사용할 수 있음을 밝혔다. 휨-전단 실험을 통해서는 조합하중이 작용하는 격점부의 상세를 개선하였다. 격점부의 인발강도를 증진시키기 위해서 절곡 스터드가 제안되었고 그룹 스터드의 최 외측 스터드에 적용되었다. 이러한 결과들을 바탕으로 복합 트러스 교량의 개선된 격점부 상세가 개선되고 설계 방안이 제안되었다.

Casting Ultra High-Performance Concrete (UHPC) on an orthotropic steel deck and forming a composite action by connectors could improve the steel deck fatigue performance. This study presents the mechanical performance of a proposed post-combination connection between UHPC and steel, which had a low constraint effect on UHPC shrinkage. A total of 10 push-out tests were conducted for static and fatigue performance investigations. And the test results were compared with evaluation methods in codes to verify the latter's applicability. Meanwhile, nonlinear simulation and parametric works with material damage plasticity models were also conducted for the static and fatigue failure mechanism understanding. The static and fatigue test results both showed that fractures at stud roots and surrounding local UHPC crushes were the main failure appearances. Compared with normally arranged studs, group arrangement could result in reductions of static stud shear stiffness, strength, and fatigue lives, which were about 18%, 12%, and 27%, respectively. Compared with the test results, stud shear capacity and fatigue lives evaluations based on the codes of AASHTO, Eurocode 4, JSCE and JTG D64 could be applicable in general while the safety redundancies tended to be smaller or even insufficient for group studs. The analysis results showed that arranging studs in groups caused obviously uneven strain distributions. The severer stress concentration and larger strain ranges caused the static and fatigue performance degradations of group studs. The research outcome provides a very important basis for establishing a design method of connections in the novel post-combination steel-UHPC composite deck.

A perforated shear connector group is commonly used to transfer shear in steel-concrete composite structures when the traditional shear stud connection is not strong enough. The multi-hole perforated shear connector demonstrates a more complicated behavior than the single connector. The internal force distribution in a specific multi-hole perforated shear connector group has not been thoroughly studied. This study focuses on the load-carrying capacity and shear force distribution of multi-hole perforated shear connectors in steel-concrete composite structures. ANSYS is used to develop a three-dimensional finite element model to simulate the behavior of multi-hole perforated connectors. Material and geometric nonlinearities are considered in the model to identify the failure modes, ultimate strength, and load-slip behavior of the connection. A three-layer model is introduced and a closed-form solution for the shear force distribution is developed to facilitate design calculations. The shear force distribution curve of the multi-hole shear connector is catenary, and the efficiency coefficient must be considered in different limit states.

Cyclic response of "shear" connections between steel outrigger beams and reinforced concrete core walls is presented in this paper. The connections investigated in this paper consisted of a shear tab welded onto a plate that was connected to the core walls through multiple headed studs. The experimental data from six specimens point to a capacity larger than the design value. However, the mode of failure was through pullout of the embedded plate, or fracture of the weld between the studs and plate. Such brittle modes of failure need to be avoided through proper design. A capacity design method based on dissipating the input energy through yielding and fracture of the shear tab was developed. This approach requires a good understanding of the expected capacity of headed studs under combined gravity shear and cyclic axial load (tension and compression). A model was developed and verified against test results from six specimens. A specimen designed based on the proposed design methodology performed very well, and the connection did not fail until shear tab fractured after extensive yielding. The proposed design method is recommended for design of outrigger beam-wall connections.

Current codes recommend large amounts of shear reinforcement for reinforced concrete beam-column joints that causes significant bar congestion. Increase in congestion of shear reinforcement in joint core (connection zone), leads to increase accomplishment problems. The congestion may also lead to diameter limitations on the beam bars relative to the joint dimensions. Using double headed studs instead of conventional closed hoops in reinforced concrete beam-column joints reduces congestion and ensures easier assembly of the reinforcing cage. The purpose of this research is evaluating the efficiency of the proposed reinforcement. In this way, 10 groups of exterior beam-column joints are modeled. Each group includes 7 specimens by different reinforcing details in their joint core. All specimens are modeled by using of ABAQUS and analyzed subjected to cyclic loading. After verification of analytical modeling with an experimental specimen, 3D nonlinear specimens are modeled and analyzed. Then, the effect of amount and arrangement of headed studs on ductility, performance, ultimate strength and energy absorption has been studied. Based on the results, all joints reinforced with double headed studs represent better performance compared with the joints without shear transverse reinforcement in joints core. The behavior of the former is close to joints reinforced with closed hoops and cross ties according to the seismic design codes. By adjusting the arrangement of double-headed studs, the decrease in ductility, performance, ultimate moment resistant and energy absorption reduce to 2.61%, 0.90%, 0.90% and 1.66% respectively compared with the joints reinforced by closed hoops on the average. Since the use of headed studs reduces accomplishment problems, these amounts are negligible. Therefore, use of double-headed studs has proved to be a viable option for reinforcing exterior beam-column joints.
