Traffic flow capacity of some old road bridges is insufficient due to limited deck width. In such cases bridge deck widening is a common solution. For multi-girder reinforced concrete (RC) bridges it is possible to add steel-concrete composite girders as the new outermost girders. The deck widening may be combined with bridge strengthening thanks to thickening of the existing deck slab. Joint action of the existing and the added parts of such bridge span must be ensured. It refers especially to the horizontal plane at the interface of the existing slab and the added concrete layer as well as to the vertical planes at the external surfaces of the initially outermost girders where the added girders are connected to the existing bridge span. Since the distribution of the added concrete is non-uniform in the span cross-section the structure is particularly sensitive to the added concrete shrinkage. The shrinkage induces shear forces in the aforementioned planes. Widening of a 12 m long RC multi-girder bridge span is numerically analysed to assess the influence of the added concrete shrinkage. The analysis results show that: a) in the vertical plane of the connection of the added and the existing deck slab the longitudinal shear due to the shrinkage of the added concrete is comparable with the effect of live load, b) it is necessary to provide appropriate longitudinal reinforcement in the deck slab over the added girders due to tension induced by the shrinkage of the added concrete.

Tolerable vertical displacement of a bridge is dependent on the superstructure-type, slope, span, and etc.. In the design stage, however, resultant force of cross section is examined supposed that the settlement is 1 cm at the bearing point. And the 1cm is sometimes considered as if the criteria of allowable foundation settlement. It is needed to establish the criteria of the tolerable displacement for the small and middle bridges which are widely used in domestic area. The design data of domestic bridges including expressway bridges were collected and analyzed according to the types of superstructures and foundations. And numerical simulations were conducted for RC rigid frame bridges, PSC girder bridges, IPC girder bridges, PSC box girder bridges, and steel box girder bridges to examine the tolerable displacements.

The IPC(Incremental Prestressed Concrete) which is gradually introducing the tensile force by tendons has been recently developed for reducing the effective depth of PSC bridges. As well known, concrete experiences long-term deformation such as creep and drying shrinkage, and the prediction of the long-term behavior of concrete bridges is essential for both safety and serviceability aspects. This paper was analysed the long-term behavior of a continuous 2-span IPC girder bridge taking into consideration of creep, drying shrinkage and the time of tensile force introduction. As results, the shrinkage of slab concrete increases the negative moment at interior support, and the The difference of concrete ages between slab and girder increases the camber. The effect of initial tensile force is larger than the effect of secondary tensile force in the tendons.

The main objective of this study is to develope the PSC-I girder for long span bridge. This study investigates the structural behavior of Postcracking stage and efficiency of proposed PSC-I girder using 1/2 scaled prototype beam specimen. Three specimens are tested under three point static loading system. Ideally, the Load-displacement relationship is trilinear. The crack patterns and failure mode of each specimen are reported in this paper and they are compared to each other with ductility and strength.

A new type of bridge superstructures referred to as Steel-confined Prestressed Concrete Girder (SCP Girder) was developed, which is composed of concrete, steel plate, and prestressing tendon. The girder may maximize structural advantages of these components : thus, long span bridges with low height girder may be constructed. For the effective design and fabrication of the girder, the design software program was developed and the process of fabrication established. The experimental girder designed using the program was manufactured in actual size to confirm the fabric ability of the girder. Propriety of design, structural safety, and applicability of the girder were verified through the load test.

A new type of girder named as Steel-Confined Prestressed Concrete Girder(SCP Girder) has been developed, which is composed of concrete, steel plate, and prestressing tendon. This girder may maximize structural advantages of these components, therefore it can be used to construct the middle or long span bridge with low-height girder. To verify the propriety of design, structural safety, and applicability of this girder, static load test was carried out. In this study, a design program was developed for practical design of railway bridge using SCP girder. And to verify the applicability of SCP girder to railway bridge, structural performance and economic efficiency based on the construction cost were compared with conventional railway bridges.

2거더교를 위한 장지간 바닥판의 설계에서 바닥판의 안전성과 사용성을 만족시키면서 두께를 줄여 자중을 최소화하는 것은 중요한 요소 중의 하나이다. 이 논문에서는 2거더교를 위한 횡방향 프리스트레스트 콘크리트 바닥판의 설계 최소두께와 배근상세를 안정성, 사용성을 고려하여 제시하였다. 대상 교량은, 실용적인 2거더교를 대표할 수 있는 교량으로, 교량길이 40 m의 단순교이다. 대상교량의 바닥판의 지간을 4 m~12m로 변화시켜 가며 분석하였다. 바닥판의 이방성 거동을 고려하여 최소단면을 일방향 슬래브로 설계하고, 균열폭과 피로강도를 평가하였으며, 처짐제한을 충족시킬 수 있는 최소 수준의 두께와 비교하였다. 연구결과, 피로내구성의 확보를 위해서는 직경 16 mm이하의 철근을 사용하는 것이 좋으며, 지간이 8 m를 넘는 장지간 바닥판은 처짐에 대한 사용성이 두께 결정의 지배적 요소임을 확인하였다. 또한, 현행 도로교 설계기준의 배력 철근량 규정을 적용하면 지간 4 m 이상의 바닥판에서는 지간 3 m 이하의 바닥판에서 기대되는 정도의 교축방향의 구조적 연속성을 확보할 수 없는 것으로 나타났다.

It was previously introduced a new displacement measuring technique using terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) that remotely samples the surface of an object using laser pulses and generates the three-dimensional (3D) coordinates of numerous points on the surface. In this paper, for an assessment of the capabilities of the measuring technique about existing structures, the field tests for vertical displacement measurement of an existing long span steel box-girder are experimentally carried out. The performance of the technique is evaluated by comparing the displacements obtained from TLS system and displacements directly measured from linear variable displacement transducer (LVDT).

Serviceability resign is required to control the cracking at the joint of precast decks having longitudinal prestress in continuous composite bridges. Especially, details of twin girder bridges are complex not only due to main reinforcements and transverse prestress for the resign of long-span concrete slabs but also due to shear pockets for obtaining the composite action. This paper suggests the design guidelines for the magnitude of the effective prestress and for the selection of filling materials and their requirements in order to use precast decks for twin-girder continuous composite bridges. The necessary initial prestress was also evaluated through the long-term behavior analysis. From the analysis, existing design examples were revised and their effectiveness was estimated. When a filling material having bonding strength higher than the requirement is used in the region of high negative moment, uniform configuration of longitudinal prestressing steels along the whole span length of continuous composite bridges can be achieved resulting in simplification of details and enhancement of the construction costs.

This study was performed to evaluate the static strength of long-span PSC deck slabs. In the previous study, the minimum thickness of PSC deck slabs in the composite two-girder bridge was proposed. To examine the structural behavior and safety of the PSC deck slabs designed in accordance with the proposed minimum thickness, 1/3 scaled PSC deck slabs in the composite two-girder bridge were tested under the static loading. The test results were compared with the predicted values proposed by the code and Matsui. Test results showed ultimate static strength of the PSC deck slabs designed in accordance with the proposed minimum thickness have enough margin of safety. The static failure mode of each test specimen was punching shear mode.
