Abstract

In this paper, detailed safety inspection reports on the 915 expressway bridges which had been published from 1996 to 2010 are collected and condition of these bridges are analyzed. Damages are categorized into 'damage by defect', 'damage by physical force', and 'damage by deterioration' and the concept of damage possession rate is introduced to investigate the occurrence time and the characteristics of damages. Based on the top 10 damage patterns of expressway bridges and the deterioration characteristics of heavy snow and freezing cold area, reasonable improvement direction of inspection activity is suggested. From this study, it is known that improvement of inspection regularization during construction or at completion stage of bridges is needed. Since the deterioration progress of the heavy snow and freezing cold area is faster than that of general area, environmental characteristics should be considered in inspection activity. The results of present study can be widely used for improvement of inspection activity of expressway bridges.

이 논문에서는, 1996년부터 2010년까지 915개 고속도로 교량에 대해 실시된 정밀안전진단 보고서를 수집하여 이들 교량의 상태를 분석하였다. 분석시 손상을, 결함, 물리력 및 열화에 의한 손상으로 구분하여 손상이 많이 발생하는 시기를 조사하고, 유손상율의 개념을 도입하여 손상의 특징을 조사하였으며, 고속도로 교량의 10대 손상, 다설한랭지역 교량과 일반지역 교량의 열화특성을 비교하여 합리적인 점검활동 개선 방향을 제시하였다. 연구결과, 시공시 실시하는 점검 또는 초기점검 제도 개선이 필요하고, 다설한랭지역의 경우 열화진행 속도가 빠르므로 주변 환경의 특성을 고려한 점검 활동 개선이 필요한 것으로 판단되었다. 이 연구 결과는 향후 고속도로 교량의 점검 활동 개선을 위해 널리 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
