By taking the Runyang Highway Bridge over the Yangtze River with 1490 m main span as example, structural response of the bridge under the horizontal and vertical seismic excitations is investigated by the response spectrum and time-history analysis of MIDAS/Civil software respectively, the seismic behavior and the influence of structural nonlinearity on the seismic response of the bridge are revealed. Considering the aspect of seismic performance, the suitability of employing the suspension bridge in super long-span bridges is investigated as compared to the cable-stayed bridge and cable-stayed-suspension hybrid bridge with the similar main span. Furthermore, the effects of structural parameters including the span arrangement, the cable sag to span ratio, the side to main span ratio, the girder height, the central buckle and the girder support system etc on the seismic performance of the bridge are investigated by the seismic response spectrum analysis, and the favorable earthquake-resistant structural system of suspension bridges is also discussed.

횡방향으로 프리스트레스가 도입된 장지간 PSC 바닥판의 정적 거동을 예측하기 위한 유한요소해석 모델을 구성하고, 해석결과를 선행연구에 의한 실험결과와 비교하였다. 유한요소해석에 의하여 서로 다른 콘크리트 강도와 프리스트레스 크기를 변수로 갖는 각각의 실험체에 대한 하중-처짐 관계 곡선을 비교적 근접하게 추정할 수 있었다. 또한, 변형률 분포와 변수에 따른 극한강도 변화로부터 펀칭전단에 의한 파괴형태와 손상범위 등을 간접적으로 예측할 수 있었다. 이 연구에서 활용된 유한요소해석 모델은 펀칭전단파괴에 의한 펀칭콘의 분리를 사실적으로 재현하기 위한 목적이 아니며, 실험연구를 위한 보조적 수단으로서 정적거동예측과 실험결과의 보완 등에 효과적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

To investigate the effects of central buckles on the dynamic behavior and flutter stability of long-span suspension bridges, four different connection options between the main cable and the girder near the mid-span position of the Aizhai Bridge were studied. Based on the flutter derivatives obtained from wind tunnel tests, formulations of self-excited forces in the time domain were obtained using a nonlinear least square fitting method and a time-domain flutter analysis was realized. Subsequently, the influences of the central buckles on the critical flutter velocity, flutter frequency, and three-dimensional flutter states of the bridge were investigated. The results show that the central buckles can significantly increase the frequency of the longitudinal floating mode of the bridge and have greater influence on the frequencies of the asymmetric lateral bending mode and asymmetric torsion mode than on that of the symmetric ones. As such, the central buckles have small impact on the critical flutter velocity due to that the flutter mode of the Aizhai Bridge was essentially the symmetric torsion mode coupled with the symmetric vertical mode. However, the central buckles have certain impact on the flutter mode and the three-dimensional flutter states of the bridge. In addition, it is found that the phenomenon of complex beat vibrations (called intermittent flutter phenomenon) appeared in the flutter state of the bridge when the structural damping is 0 or very low.

강합성 소수 거더교에 적용되는 장지간 프리스트레스트 콘크리트(PSC) 바닥판에 대해 정적재하실험을 수행하였다. 장지간 바닥판의 구조거동의 평가를 위해서는 바닥판 지간(교축직각방향 길이)이 긴 만큼 충분한 교축방향의 길이를 갖는 실험체 모델을 대상으로 해야 하는데, 이러한 실험체 크기는 운반, 실험공간 등의 제약으로 인해 실제 장지간 바닥판의 크기로 구조거동을 평가하는데 어려움이 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 바닥판 실험체의 교축방향 길이를 감소시키고, 실제 장지간 바닥판 크기에 대한 교축방향의 바닥판 강성을 실험체 모델에 모사하기 위해 보강재(H-beam)를 적용하는 방법을 제안하였으며, 이를 통해 장지간 바닥판의 파괴거동과 구조성능을 평가하였다.

한국건설기술연구원내에 테스트베드로서 UHPC 보도사장교(Super Bridge I)를 설계 및 완공하였고, 변형률, 가속도, 장력, 풍향풍속, 온도 등의 각종 데이터를 정기적으로 수집할 수 있는 장기계측시스템을 구축하였다. 이는 UHPC 부재의 역학적 특성 및 사용성 평가에 대한 기본 데이터를 제공하여 장대하이브리드사장교의 거동 특성을 추정하는데 큰 도움이 될 것으로 예상된다.

The Jiangyin Bridge is a suspension bridge with a main span of 1385 m over the Yangtze River in Jiangsu Province, China. Being the first bridge with a main span exceeding 1 km in Chinese mainland, it had been instrumented with a structural health monitoring (SHM) system when completed in 1999. After operation for several years, it was found with malfunction in sensors and data acquisition units, and insufficient sensors to provide necessary information for structural health evaluation. This study reports the SHM system upgrade project on the Jiangyin Bridge. Although implementations of SHM system have been reported worldwide, few studies are available on the upgrade of SHM system so far. Recognizing this, the upgrade of original SHM system for the bridge is first discussed in detail. Especially, lessons learned from the original SHM system are applied to the design of upgraded SHM system right away. Then, performance assessment of the bridge, including: (i) characterization of temperature profiles and effects; (ii) recognition of wind characteristics and effects; and (iii) identification of modal properties, is carried out by making use of the long-term monitoring data obtained from the upgraded SHM system. Emphasis is placed on the verification of design assumptions and prediction of bridge behavior or extreme responses. The results may provide the baseline for structural health evaluation.

Variation of temperature is a primary environmental factor that affects the behavior of structures. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms of normal temperature-induced variations of structural behavior would help in distinguishing them from anomalies. In this study, we used the structural health monitoring data of the Shanghai Yangtze River Bridge, a steel girder cable-stayed bridge, to investigate the mechanisms of thermally induced vertical deflection ($D_T$) at mid-span of such bridges. The $D_T$ results from a multisource combination of thermal expansion effects of the cable temperature ($T_{Cab}$), girder temperature ($T_{Gir}$), girder differential temperature ($T_{Dif}$), and tower temperature ($T_{Tow}$). It could be approximated by multiple linear superpositions under operational conditions. The sensitivities of $D_T$ of the Shanghai Yangtze River Bridge to the above temperatures were in the following order: $T_{Cab}$ > $T_{Gir}$ > $T_{Tow}$ > $T_{Dif}$. However, the direction of the effect of $T_{Cab}$ was observed to be opposite to that of the other three temperatures, and the magnitudes of the effects of $T_{Cab}$ and $T_{Gir}$ were found to be almost one order greater than those of $T_{Dif}$ and $T_{Tow}$. The mechanisms of the thermally induced vertical deflection variation at mid-span of a cable-stayed bridge as well as the analytical methodology adopted in this study could be applicable for other long-span cable-stayed bridges.

The cases of using new methods of big blocks are largely increasing on Recent large-scale bridge structures. So the accurate data of responses of bridges following environmental causes are required to be quickly recorded in order to predict. For this reason described above, the research on measuring system should be conducted for more knowledge of the details on application and stability of new methods. In this study, the new health monitoring system that can monitor the real behavior and damages of the bridge during all processes of construction is presented by analyzing cases of domestic and overseas bridge health monitoring system, and applied methods of following bridges.
