The paper presents a model for analysing the shear-lag effect on the slab of twin-girder composite decks subjected to static actions, support settlements and concrete shrinkage, which are the main actions of interest in composite bridge design. The proposed model includes concrete creep behaviour and shear connection flexibility. The shear-lag in the slab is accounted for by means of a new warping function. The considered actions are then applied to a realistic bridge deck and their effects are discussed. The proposed method is utilised to determine the slab effective widths for three different width-length ratios of the deck. Finally, a comparison between the results obtained with the Eurocode EC4-2 and those obtained with the proposed model is performed.

The bridge slab of express railway was designed for high strength concrete (design strength 400kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$). In case the slab is made with the concrete using type I cement, used much amount of cement can cause cracks through concrete by hydration heat or dry shrinkage. In this study we targeted to solve above problems using type III cement. We could decrease the cement ratio in concrete using type III cement than type I cement. The concrete using type III cement showed good workability and compressive strength, and showed better properties in hydration heat and dry shrinkage than that using type I cement

본 연구에서는 3경간연속 탄성지지된 복합슬래브교량을 특별직교이방성 판이론을 응용하여 해석하였다. 불균등단면이나 임의의 경계조건을 가진 보나 타워구조물의 고유진동수를 계산하는 방법을 탄성지지된 3경간 연속 복합슬래브교량에 적용하여 연구하였다. 슬래브 상판은 특별직교이방성 판으로 취급하였다. 진동해석에 필요한 변위의 영향계수는 여러 가지 방법으로 구할 수 있으나 본 논문에서는 유한차분법을 사용하였다. 또한 휨강성에 대한 영향과 기초의 탄성계수에 대한 영향에 대하여 연구하였다.

PSC(Prestressed Concrete) box girder bridges have been widely applied in Korea. A number of these bridges have been built by the segmental construction method in the longitudinal direction and(or) vertically along the cross-sectional depth with MSS(Moving Scaffolding System). An actual 2-span continuous PSC box girder bridge of Kyeongbu high speed railway was selected and instrumented with 96 vibrating wire embedded type strain gauges and 2 thermocouples. The long-term behavior of the bridge was monitored through two major points located at mid-span of the first span and at the internal support. Data collection started just after the casting of the first segment (U section). Concrete strain and temperature data were gathered regularly by a data logger (CR10) during 600 days under and after construction. According to this measurement, the parabolic longitudinal strain distribution in the top slab at mid-span is shown. And also, the same distribution at the interior support is shown. The compressive strains at the cantilever region are larger than at the web position and the internal part in the top slab. Strain difference largely happened during the early construction period.

The purpose of this study makes a retrofit and rehabilitation practice trough the analysis and the improvement for the underlying problem of current retrofit and rehabilitation methods. Therefore, the deterioration process, the damage cause, the condition classification, the fatigue mechanism and the applied quantity of strengthening methods for slab bridge decks were analysed. Artificial neural networks are efficient computing techniqures that are widely used to solve complex problems in many fields. In this study, a back-propagation neural network model for estimating a management on existing slab bridge decks from damage cause, damage type, and integrity assessment at the initial stsge is need. The training and testing of the network were based on a database of 36. Four different network models werw used to study the ability of the neural network to predict the desirable output of increasing degree of accuracy. The neural networks is trained by modifying the weights of the neurons in response to the errors between the actual output values and the target output value. Training was done iteratively until the average sum squared errors over all the training patterms were minimized. This generally occurred after about 5,000 cycles of training.

이 연구에서는 이음부가 초고성능콘크리트 교량 바닥판의 정적 거동에 미치는 영향을 실험적으로 규명하고, 이음부 철근의 최소겹침이음길이를 제안하였다. 총 6개의 실험부재를 제작하였으며 4점 휨 실험에 의하여 성능을 평가하였다. 이음부는 UHPC의 높은 부착특성으로 인하여 단순하면서도 매우 효율적인 구조가 될 것으로 기대되는 철근겹침이음을 대상으로 하였다. 실험결과로부터 이음부의 설치에 의한 UHPC의 인장기여도 감소에 따라 약 30% 수준의 휨강도 감소가 발생되는 것으로 측정되었고, 150 mm 이상의 철근겹침이음길이를 확보하면 연속된 철근을 사용한 경우와 거의 유사한 강도와 연성을 확보할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

An experimental investigation on the ruined RC bridge with 30 years old has been conducted to estimate the durabilities. The ruined RC bridge estimated in this study was located at Kyung-Bu Express Way. First, concrete strength and durability characteristics such as concrete resistivity, chloride content were estimated. Second, it was to test reinforcing corrosion embedded in slab of bridge. And, third, tensile strength and yield strength of reinforcing bar corroded and not corroded were estimated. This bridge inspection provides the most common cause of defects and deterioration and the results of this inspections give more specific information than those of laboratory inspections do.

In steel and concrete composite girders, the load transfer between the steel beam and the concrete slab is commonly ensured by installing shear connectors. In this paper, to investigate the nonlinear behavior of perfobond connectors, a total of 60 push-out specimens were fabricated and tested with the variables for the hole diameter, the concrete strength, the thickness of concrete slab, the diameter, strength and existence of perforating rebar, the thickness, height and distance of perfobond ribs. The failure mode and the load-slip behavior of perfobond connectors were obtained. A theoretical model was put forward to express the load-slip relationship. Analytical formulas of shear capacity and peak slip were also proposed considering the interaction between the concrete dowel and the perforating rebar. The calculation results of the proposals agreed well with the experimental values.

Precast-cast insitu concrete bridge construction is widely practiced for small to medium span structures. These bridges consist of precast pre-stressed concrete beams of various cross-sections with a cast in-situ reinforced concrete slab. The connection between the beams and the slab is via shear links often included during the manufacturing process of the beams. This form of construction is attractive as it provides for standardisation, reduced formwork and construction time. The assessment of the integrity of shear connectors in existing bridges is a major challenge. A procedure for assessment of shear connectors based on vibration testing and finite element model updating is proposed. The technique is applied successfully to a scaled model bridge model and an existing bridge structure.

Recently, unexpected cracks in the concrete deck slab of composite steel bridges have been widely reported at an early age of concrete placing due to the concrete placing sequence and methods. Accordingly, the analytical research was carried out to verify the negative moment at an internal supports due to the several concrete pouring sequence and to determine the reasonable concrete placing method on the deck slab of composite steel bridge. The results show that the conventional concrete-placing method, which pours concrete first on the positive moment regions and then negative regions, leads to the minimum moment at an internal supports. However, the conventional method produces two impractical construction joints on every spans and makes field engineer to pour concrete continuously. In conclusion, this concrete-placing method was verified to be reasonable only when the construction joint was placed at the $\frac{5}{8}l{\sim}\frac{6}{8}l$ location of the middle span.
