[미발표]무코핑 교량의 개념 및 기본단면 해석을 통한 단면력 분석

Continuous span bridges generally require bearings at supports. Consequently, bridge bearings should be carefully maintained to ensure their performance during bridge life time. In aesthetic point of view, bridge coping reduces space under bridge. This study presents an integral bridge that connects coping and girders by means of readily inserted prestressing bars. This bridge reduces the use of bearings and increases space under the bridge. In this study, the basic principle of the proposed bridge is discussed first. Then, finite element analyses are performed to compare the behavior of the proposed bridge against the conventional bridge.
