Abstract

Although many studies have been performed for the structural details of orthotropic steel deck, most of them were focused on the trough rib of standard type, but not for orthotropic steel deck with longitudinal rib of open section used at beginning of the deck. In order to investigate the cause of fatigue crack for orthotropic steel deck bridge serviced 31 years with longitudinal rib of open section, in this study, the behavior characteristics of target structural details were analyzed based on measurement data under real traffic condition. Also the typical loading truck passing the target bridges was estimated with the structural analysis detailed, and the stresses and deformation patterns of target structural details were analyzed by performing the detailed structural analysis. Based upon the analysis, retrofitting methods of the fatigue crack were suggested and its validation was examined. From this study, it was clarified that fatigue crack of longitudinal rib with open section were affected with the stress increment by shear deformation in the rib and the occurrence of alternative stress due to moving vehicle. In addition, it was known that it is important to perform fatigue design reflected the local behavior of the structural details.

강바닥판의 구조상세에 대하여 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있으나, 대부분의 연구가 표준형의 U-rib를 대상으로 실시되었을 뿐, 강바닥판 건설초기의 개단면리브형식에 대한 연구는 미진한 것으로 조사되었다. 본 연구에서는 공용연수 31년된 개단면세로리브형식의 강바닥판 교량의 피로균열 발생 원인을 조사하기 위하여 실교통류하에서의 계측 데이터를 통하여 대상구조상세의 거동 특성을 분석하였다. 또한 상세구조해석을 통하여 대상교량을 통과하는 대표트럭하중을 추정하고, 상세영향면해석을 이용하여 대상구조상세의 응력 및 변형특성을 분석하였다. 이들 분석에 기초하여 피로균열이 발생된 대상구조상세의 보강방안을 제시하고, 이에 대한 타당성을 검증하였다. 연구결과, 개단면리브에서의 피로균열의 발생원인은 개단면부에서의 전단변형에 의한 응력증가 및 차량의 이동에 따른 교번응력의 발생에 기인하는 것으로 조사되었으며, 국부구조상세에 대한 피로설계에서는 구조상세의 거동특성이 충분히 반영된 상세해석에 근거한 설계를 실시하는 것이 중요하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.
