Abstract

Vehicle collision to bridges has been known as one of the causes of bridge collapse, and the emergency plans and disaster management has been recently emphasized to secure public safety. This study conducted risk assessment of vehicular collision to bridges for highway bridges in Korea. Risk assessment consists of three steps; preliminary risk analysis(PRA), simplified risk analysis(SRA) and detailed risk analysis(DRA). The PRA firstly screens out the possibility of occurrence of the event. The SRA identifies influencial factors to risk of the event and evaluates risk scores to determine risk levels and necessity of DRA that investigates the risk of the bridge in detail. This study focuses on the methodology of the risk assessment, especially the SRA, and the stratification methods which evaluate risk levels of vehicular collision. The analysis results were compared to the reported vehicular collision accidents. The proposed method can be utilized in similar disaster management area.

차량충돌은 가장 빈도가 높은 교량 붕괴의 원인 중 하나로 알려져 있으며, 최근 재해에 대하여 대책 수립 및 관리의 필요성이 공익 안전을 위해 제기되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 차량 충돌로 인한 교량 피해에 대하여 위험도 분석을 실시하였다. 위험도 분석 단계는 세 단계로 구분하였고, 예비위험분석 단계에서는 충돌의 발생가능성을 확인하며, 기본위험분석 단계에서는 발생가능성, 취약성, 중요도에 대한 위험도 점수평가를 통한 위험도 등급을 산정하였다. 마지막 상세위험분석 단계에서는 위험도가 높은 등급에 대하여 상세분석을 실시한다. 본 연구에서는 예비위험분석과 기본위험 단계에 집중하여 위험도 등급 구분을 위한 네 가지의 급간분류법을 적용하였다. 충돌 사례와 분석 결과를 비교하여 적절한 급간분류법을 결정하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서 사용된 위험도 분석법은 유사한 재난에 대한 대책수립을 위해 사용될 수 있을 것이다.
