Abstract

The intention of this paper is to provide realistic values of design thermal loads applicable to composite box girder bridges on the basis of the statistical analysis of long-term measured temperature data. For this purpose, temperatures were recorded at a newly constructed composite box girder bridge during about 20 months. Before analyzing the extreme values, major thermal loading parameters that characterize the temperature profile are defined, and a seasonal behavior of those is examined in detail. The limit distributions of the thermal loading parameters are then determined by the tail-equivalence method, and the thermal loading parameters corresponding to selected return period are calculated. Finally, the results are compared to the specifications suggested in a current design code for thermal loads, and it is concluded that the current design code is unsuitable for representing the self-equilibrated thermal stresses in composite bridges, and the horizontal temperature difference which is not suggested in current design code should be taken Into account in particular cases.

본 논문에서는 장기온도측정자료의 통계해석에 바탕을 두고, 합성박스형교량에 작용하는 설계온도하중의 적절한 값을 제안하고자 한다. 이를 위해, 최근에 건설된 합성박스형교량에서 약 20개월간 온도측정을 수행하였다. 극치해석에 앞서, 온도분포특성을 나타내는 주요 매개변수를 정의하고, 이의 계절별변화에 대해 상세히 검토하였다. 이 온도하중매개변수의 극치분포를 Tail-Equivalence법에 의해 결정하고, 주어진 재현기간에 해당되는 온도하중매개변수의 극치값을 계산하였다. 끝으로, 이 결과들을 현 시방서에서 온도하중에 대해 제안하고있는 규정들과 비교하였다. 비교결과로부터, 현 시방서는 합성박스형교량의 온도응력을 나타내는데 불충분하며, 특별한 경우에 있어서 현 설계규정에 포함되지않은 수평방향온도변화를 고려해야만 된다는 결론에 도달하였다.
