TitlePlanning and Design of AnShin Bridge, the Ankeng LRT System Xindian River Crossing Bridge
AuthorTeo Eng-Huat, Chang Jhih-Bin, Chang Jung-Tzu
KeywordsCable-Stayed Bridge, Steel Truss Bridge, Wind Tunnel Test
Abstract    Ankeng LRT, located in New Taipei City, is a part of the “3 ring & 6 line railway project”. The route goes through Xindian and Ankeng area, and the section crossing Xindian River is the AnShin Bridge. Since the route crossing Xindian River has a skew with the river channel in 41 degrees, and there is a big turn in the Xindian side in order to enter the K9 station, it makes distance crossing river over 500 m. Moreover, there is a restriction which allows only 2 piers in the Xindian river reservation. In order to fulfill the requirement of the hydrographic as well as the railway system, a cable-stayed and truss composite bridge is used, which is the first in Taiwan and are seldom used in the foreign as well. AnShin Bridge crosses the deep trench area with a big span, a three-span continuous truss girder is used (225m+150m+127m=502m) for the bridge, not only can fulfill the deflection restriction of the railway structure, but also can keep the deformation continuity of the rail and structure at the curve route section. Since the location of the pier is restricted, the A-shaped inclined tower with single pier and the arrangement of the cable was well designed to surmount the imbalanced force due to unbalanced span. Last but not least, the analysis and modeling of the cable-stayed bridge with truss girder, the design detail of the curve and gradient steel truss, and the extra consideration for the railway bridge are some of the design features of AnShin Bridge which is different from the usual. The Anshin Bridge are special not only in the scale, span and design features, but also in the steel details and construction challenge. The design of AnShin Bridge is carried out in this article, some railway bridge design feature including seismic design, wind resistance design as well as the structural detail are also introduced, provide as a reference for the future engineering related project.
TitlePlanning, Design and Construction of the Sanying Second Bridge in New Taipei City
AuthorKang-Yu Peng, Ming-Sing Wu, Tien-Jen Hsiao
KeywordsAdjacent precast PC inverted T-beam, Accelerating Bridge Construction, Construction crossing over the railroad
Abstract

    In recent years, New Taipei City Government has made great efforts to develop various constructions and promote tourism. The rapid growth of traffic volume in Tucheng District, Shulin District, Sanxia District and Yingge District must be actively responded and improved, facing the factors such as urgency of transportation construction, road safety requirements, bottleneck section improvement and the demands for access roads to tourism-developing districts. Among other things, the Sanying Bridge is an important one connecting Yingge and Shulin to Sanxia City Road No.110 and Sanying Interchange of National Highway No. 3. As the current service level of traffic has reached F-level during peak hours, in order to actively improve the traffic bottleneck, New Taipei City Government promotes the construction of the Sanying Second Bridge (hereinafter referred to as this project) to connect the 40m road (Dayi Road) in the Designated Area of Taipei University to share the traffic flow of City Road No. 110 and the Sanying Bridge.

    The planned route of the Sanying Second Bridge connects City Road No. 114 in a turning manner after crossing National Highway No. 3, the Dahan River and the track of Taiwan Railway. It adopts the first domestic inverted T-shaped, precast and prestressed beam to strive for the clearance under the bridge and to boost construction to ensure maintaining smooth traffic of national highway. By using large-span steel box girder for the bridge to cross the Dahan River and the track of Taiwan Railway, the design overcomes the risks of construction during the flood season and railway adjacency. This article aims to provide the design considerations and construction experience of this project which is expected to give a constructive reference to the domestic construction community.

TitleDevelopment of Computer-aid Design System for Prestressed Concrete Bridges Considering Weight-minimum
AuthorGuan-Chun Chen, Po-Hsin Lee, Guan-yu Sung, Jia-Hsuan Li, Chih-Hsing Peng, Zheng-Hong Chen, Yu-Chi Sung
KeywordsPrestressed concrete bridges; Weight-minimum design; Program development
Abstract    Based on the specifications of railway bridges and highway bridges, this study developed the computer-aid design system for weight-minimum of prestressed concrete railway bridges. Creep, shrinkage, and relaxation would cause variation of the prestress tendons and deflection of the structure, leading to a lot of analyses in design. Through the computer-aid design system, complicated analysis can be performed quickly to obtain results, reduce human errors, and improve design efficiency.The results show that the optimized section is valid for reducing the superstructure section area by around 20 % and reducing the area of the pier section by around 2.5%.”
TitleSeismic Performance Design of New RC Bridges subjected to Near-Fault Earthquakes
AuthorKuang-Yen Liu, Chen-Yang Wu
Keywordshigh-strength concrete, bridge column, near-fault earthquake, strain rate, seismic performance assessment
Abstract    This study adopts the stress-strain relationship of localized high-strength reinforced concrete to explore the effect of replacing general-strength concrete with high-strength concrete on the reduction of the cross-sectional dimensions of the bridge column and the amount of steel under the same superstructure load. Case analysis shows that the increase in material strength reduces the crosssection of the bridge column, resulting in an extension of the structural period and a decrease in seismic force, which further achieves the dual goal of reducing the main reinforcement of the bridge column. In addition, when the bridge site is located near the fault, if conventional and high-strength reinforced concrete materials are used, and the contribution of the speed pulse to the high strain rate and the enhancement of the material strength is incorporated, it can also effectively reduce the cross-section of the bridge column and save the amount of main reinforcements. The design results adopt the ATC-40 capacity seismic spectrum method and the Fu-R-T strength and ductility reduction method, and the seismic performance assessment are consistent, verifying that the crosssectional size and the amount of steel reinforcement of the high-strength concrete bridge column are more economical.
TitleEffects of Longitudinal Reinforcement and Aspect Ratios on Deteriorated Hysteresis Behaviors of Reinforced Concrete Bridge Columns
AuthorPing-Hsiung Wang, Wei-Chung Cheng, Kuo-Chun Chang
Keywordsreinforced concrete, bridge column, longitudinal reinforcement, aspect ratio, hysteresis behavior, deteriorations
Abstract    To study the effects of longitudinal reinforcement and aspect ratios on the deteriorated hysteresis behaviors of reinforced concrete (RC) bridge columns, five rectangular RC column specimens with hoop and tie reinforcements are tested under cyclic loading considering longitudinal reinforcement ratios of 0.75%, 1.5%, and 3.0% and aspect ratios of 3, 6, and 10. Furthermore, another five circular RC columns with spiral reinforcement and similar test scheme obtained in the literature are included to further compare the differences of deterioration characteristics resulting from various confining mechanisms. Test results show that the stiffness degradation and pinching severity of column would increase as its longitudinal reinforcement decreases. The pinching severity of column would also increase with decreasing aspect ratio, but the stiffness degradation is barely affected by the aspect ratio. Moreover, due to the well confinement effects, the severity of deteriorations of circular columns are less than those of rectangular columns with the same longitudinal reinforcement ratio and the minimum transverse reinforcements required by seismic design codes. Besides, the failure of rectangular columns is mainly caused by the loosening of transverse reinforcements at seismic hooks, leading to gradually deteriorated confinement and strength. In contrast, the failure of circular columns is primarily induced by the fracture of spirals, resulting in destruction of confinement mechanism and sudden strength loss.
TitleRecommendations of Pushover Analysis and 𝑭𝒖- 𝑹- 𝑻 method for Bridge Seismic Capacity Evaluation and its Algorithm
AuthorDzong-Chwang Dzeng, Dzong-Chwang Dzeng, Ching-Yu Liu, Tsan-Hsiang Chou
Keywordsdynamic time history analysis, pushover analysis, capacity curve, capacity spectrum curve, bilinearization, EPA (Effective Peak Acceleration)
Abstract    While the approach combined pushover analysis with 𝐹௨- 𝑅- 𝑇 process is universally adopted in examination and evaluation of seismic capacity for domestic bridge, there are still many aspects to be reviewed, clarified, expanded and improved to further recognize its applicability and variation and to ensure the reliability of the analyzed results. This work presents an algorithm expanding the period 𝑇଴ at the end of constant spetral design acceleration plateau to obtain the 𝐸𝑃𝐴 (effective peak acceleration) corresponding to any spectrum displacement 𝑆ௗ ), establishing the continuous 𝐸𝑃𝐴 and load condition curve (e.g. displacement and plastic hinge ductility ratio) and verifying its applicability and reliability by comparing the results of simplified regular bridge model analysis with nonlinear dynamic time-history analysis. Combining this continuous EPA and load condition curve with seismic hazard at bridge site, it could be the basis for quantified calculation of bride seismic risk costs and the benefits of retrofit. In addition, this work also studies and reviews the bilinearization method of capacity spectrum curve. It proves that a much greater seismic capacity would be obtained by the “non-elastoplastic bi-linearization method” than the “elastoplastic bi-linearization method” . It should be cautious in practical applications.
TitleHysteretic Model Parameters with Using Support Vector Regression
AuthorTzu-Kang Lin, Tzu-Hui Yang, Hao-Tun Chang, Ping-Hsiung Wang, Kuo-Chun Chang
Keywordssupport vector regression, smooth hysteretic model, pinching, stiffness degradation
Abstract    This study developed artificial intelligence–based models for predicting smooth hysteretic model (SHM) parameters. Recently, an SHM based on the Bouc–Wen model was developed to determine damage accumulation and path dependence of reloading. The model comprises five main parameters that describe the seismic behavior of ductile, flexure-dominated reinforced concrete (RC) bridge columns. However, each time-variant parameter can be derived only through practical experiments and cannot be tested on actual structures; therefore, the SHM is not very practical. In this study, support-vector regression (SVR) was adopted to capitalize on the advantages of the developed SHM, which exhibits superior performance to other existing hysteresis models. Nine different RC bridge columns were tested under displacement time histories, and a total of 119 samples were acquired. Of the samples, 80% were used for training and the remaining 20% were used for testing. The longitudinal reinforcement ratio, aspect ratio, and displacement or residual displacement of individual columns were set as the inputs to the SVR models, and the pinching and stiffness degradation parameters were set as the model output. Time-variant parameters could be predicted accurately with low deviation and error percentages. Moreover, hysteresis loops were generated using the identification parameters, and the SVR prediction results were compared with experimental data. The results indicated that the seismic behavior of the RC bridge columns could be estimated with high reliability using the proposed method without the support of experimental progress and support the SHM to predict the degree of damage. “

摘要    為了解縱向鋼筋比及高寬比對鋼筋混凝土橋柱遲滯衰減行為之影響, 本研究規劃五座矩形橫箍筋橋柱之反覆載重試驗,考慮之縱向鋼筋比為 0.75%、1.5%及3.0%,橋柱之高寬比為3、6及10。再加上文獻相關圓形螺箍 筋橋柱之試驗結果,以綜合探討不同斷面圍束型式及設計參數對多項結構 性質之衰減特性,如強度衰減、勁度折減及束縮行為之影響。試驗結果顯示 ,橋柱之勁度折減程度及加載路徑之束縮嚴重程度,皆會隨著縱向鋼筋比的 降低而趨於嚴重;而高寬比對勁度折減之影響不甚明顯,但加載路徑之束縮 效應則是會隨著高寬比的降低而趨於嚴重。此外,在相同的縱向鋼筋比及滿 足耐震設計規範最低橫向鋼筋用量的前提下,圓形螺箍柱因有較好的圍束 作用,其衰減幅度會比矩形橫箍柱來的輕微。在試體破壞模式的比較方面, 矩形橫箍柱主要因其箍繫筋之彎鉤外撐鬆脫以致圍束失效,而產生漸進式 的強度衰減破壞;圓形螺箍柱則為螺箍筋發揮至極限應變斷裂以致圍束機 制崩解,而發生急遽的強度損失破壞。

Abstract    To study the effects of longitudinal reinforcement and aspect ratios on the deteriorated hysteresis behaviors of reinforced concrete (RC) bridge columns, five rectangular RC column specimens with hoop and tie reinforcements are tested under cyclic loading considering longitudinal reinforcement ratios of 0.75%, 1.5%, and 3.0% and aspect ratios of 3, 6, and 10. Furthermore, another five circular RC columns with spiral reinforcement and similar test scheme obtained in the literature are included to further compare the differences of deterioration characteristics resulting from various confining mechanisms. Test results show that the stiffness degradation and pinching severity of column would increase as its longitudinal reinforcement decreases. The pinching severity of column would also increase with decreasing aspect ratio, but the stiffness degradation is barely affected by the aspect ratio. Moreover, due to the well confinement effects, the severity of deteriorations of circular columns are less than those of rectangular columns with the same longitudinal reinforcement ratio and the minimum transverse reinforcements required by seismic design codes. Besides, the failure of rectangular columns is mainly caused by the loosening of transverse reinforcements at seismic hooks, leading to gradually deteriorated confinement and strength. In contrast, the failure of circular columns is primarily induced by the fracture of spirals, resulting in destruction of confinement mechanism and sudden strength loss.

Abstract    While the approach combined pushover analysis with 𝐹௨- 𝑅- 𝑇 process is universally adopted in examination and evaluation of seismic capacity for domestic bridge, there are still many aspects to be reviewed, clarified, expanded and improved to further recognize its applicability and variation and to ensure the reliability of the analyzed results. This work presents an algorithm expanding the period 𝑇଴ at the end of constant spetral design acceleration plateau to obtain the 𝐸𝑃𝐴 (effective peak acceleration) corresponding to any spectrum displacement 𝑆ௗ ), establishing the continuous 𝐸𝑃𝐴 and load condition curve (e.g. displacement and plastic hinge ductility ratio) and verifying its applicability and reliability by comparing the results of simplified regular bridge model analysis with nonlinear dynamic time-history analysis. Combining this continuous EPA and load condition curve with seismic hazard at bridge site, it could be the basis for quantified calculation of bride seismic risk costs and the benefits of retrofit. In addition, this work also studies and reviews the bilinearization method of capacity spectrum curve. It proves that a much greater seismic capacity would be obtained by the “non-elastoplastic bi-linearization method” than the “elastoplastic bi-linearization method” . It should be cautious in practical applications.

摘要    本研究開發一套以人工智慧為基礎的模型,將其用於預測平滑遲滯模 型(Smooth Hysteretic Model, SHM)的相關參數。近年來以Bouc-Wen模型為 基礎的平滑遲滯模型常被用於判定損害累積與遲滯迴圈的加載路徑,該類 模型包含五種主要參數,這些參數用以描述受撓曲為主的鋼筋混凝土 (Reinforced Concrete, RC)橋柱之耐震性能。其中,與時間變化相關的參數, 僅能透過實驗取得,但實際上無法頻繁使用真實結構物進行試驗,進而影響 平滑遲滯模型的實用性。雖然平滑遲滯模型的方便性有待商榷,但其性能表 現優於其他現有的遲滯模型,因此本研究試以支持向量回歸法(supportvector regression, SVR),結合人工智慧與平滑遲滯模型的優勢,開發一套更 加完善之遲滯模型,以利橋梁震損與耐震性評估。研究資料取自近年來進行 實驗之九座不同RC橋柱,樣本資料共有119筆勁度衰減參數與81筆束縮參數資料。並以80%資料進行訓練,其餘20%資料用於測試。將各橋柱的主筋比 、高寬比、位移及殘餘位移做為輸入參數,透過支持向量回歸法,預測出該 橋柱之勁度衰減與束縮參數。該方法能在低誤差的情況下,精準預測各項時變參數。最後,將分別以支持向量回歸法預測之參數,與實驗數據識別之參 數繪製之遲滯迴圈進行比較。分析結果表明,利用本研究所提出之方法,可 以進行可靠的橋柱耐震性預測,無須進行繁雜的實驗流程,即可達成協助平滑遲滯模型預測橋柱之震損程度與耐震特性。

Abstract    This study developed artificial intelligence–based models for predicting smooth hysteretic model (SHM) parameters. Recently, an SHM based on the Bouc–Wen model was developed to determine damage accumulation and path dependence of reloading. The model comprises five main parameters that describe the seismic behavior of ductile, flexure-dominated reinforced concrete (RC) bridge columns. However, each time-variant parameter can be derived only through practical experiments and cannot be tested on actual structures; therefore, the SHM is not very practical. In this study, support-vector regression (SVR) was adopted to capitalize on the advantages of the developed SHM, which exhibits superior performance to other existing hysteresis models. Nine different RC bridge columns were tested under displacement time histories, and a total of 119 samples were acquired. Of the samples, 80% were used for training and the remaining 20% were used for testing. The longitudinal reinforcement ratio, aspect ratio, and displacement or residual displacement of individual columns were set as the inputs to the SVR models, and the pinching and stiffness degradation parameters were set as the model output. Time-variant parameters could be predicted accurately with low deviation and error percentages. Moreover, hysteresis loops were generated using the identification parameters, and the SVR prediction results were compared with experimental data. The results indicated that the seismic behavior of the RC bridge columns could be estimated with high reliability using the proposed method without the support of experimental progress and support the SHM to predict the degree of damage. “

摘要跨越多樓層之挫屈束制支撐在高層建築結構中的抗震應用漸趨廣泛,桁架圍束式挫屈束制支撐(truss-confined buckling-restrained brace, TC-BRB) 為較新型之 BRB,TC-BRB 於圍束鋼管外部再配置一桁架圍束系統,由任意數量、方向與尺寸之桁架構架所構成,並與圍束鋼管共組成圍束單元來提供所需之撓曲剛度;因此其圍束鋼管與內灌水泥砂漿的撓曲剛度與斷面需求得以大幅下降。當安裝為具長跨與高軸力容量之斜撐構件時,更得以發揮減少材料用量、自重及初始凹曲等優點。本研究提出一全新型 TC-BRB,將桁架圍束系統之斷面高度由過去的等斷面改為沿 BRB 軸向變化,於跨中央最高並以正弦函數曲線向兩端漸縮,更有效率地使用材料並獲更優美之外觀。為使此新創型 BRB 方便實際工程應用,本研究建立穩定性理論模型與耐震設計方法並進行相關實驗與數值驗證。先提出桁架圍束系統等效撓曲剛度與剪力剛度計算方式,再建立穩定性理論模型。考量剪力效應計算 TC-BRB 之整體彈性撓曲挫屈強度(Pcr);並再考量初始缺陷與材料非線性行為來計算整體挫屈破壞強度(Plim)。本研究並藉 ABAQUS 有限元素模型分析進行數值驗證,結果顯示理論模型在圍束單元的 Pcr 計算上,誤差小於 10%;而於整體 TC-BRB 的 Pcr 計算上,誤差更小於 3%。為驗證理論並評估 TC-BRB 之實際遲滯消能行為,本研究第一階段設計並新造兩組具不同桁架圍束系統型態、1/5 縮尺總長 6.3 米、100 噸級之 TC-BRB 試體,利用國家地震工程研究中心多軸向試驗系統執行反覆加載試驗。理論模型考量殘餘應力的效應後,預測所得 Plim 與試驗結果的誤差小於 6%;實驗證實本研究所建理論模型於穩定性預測之準確性,更證實本研究所提之設計方法與檢核程序的可靠性。為觀察 TC-BRB 更嚴峻的耐震消能與穩定性表現,本研究第二階段再設計兩組 TC-BRB 試體並提高其整體穩定性容量,理論預測的 Plim 與試驗所得結果兩者誤差小於 7%,再次確認所提理論模型之準確性;本文提供 TC-BRB 之耐震設計流程與範例以供參考。

AbstractLong span buckling-restrained braces (BRBs) are getting popular for applications in seismic tall buildings. Recently, a novel type of BRB, namely the truss-confined BRB (TC-BRB) with a constant-depth truss built into the restrainerhas been investigated. The TC-BRB’s restrainer is constructed by attaching an additional truss system composed of several steel open-web truss frames outside the central steel casing in order to develop the overall restraining rigidity. Thus, the cross-sectionof the central steel casing and the weight of the infilled mortar in the TC-BRB can be significantly reduced in comparison with the conventional BRBs. The initial crookedness caused by the BRBs’ self-weight can also be reduced in the cases of long-span and large axial capacity BRB designs. This study investigates a new type of TC-BRB using a varying-depth truss system in the restrainers. This type of TC-BRB could save construction material and achieve the structural aesthetic more effectively than those using the constant-depth trusses. In this study, stability analytical model and seismic design procedures are developed and verified. Key mechanical properties including equivalent flexural rigidity and shear rigidity of the truss system are firstly presented. It is illustrated that the TC-BRBs’ elastic flexural buckling strength (Pcr) can be satisfactorily computed by incorporating Timoshenko shear effect into the classical stability theory. TC-BRBs’s buckling failure strength (Plim) can be further computed by considering the initial imperfections and inelastic material property.Abaqus finite element model (FEM) analysis results indicate that the proposed analytical model can satisfactorily predict the restrainers’ Pcr with errors less than 10%; and predict the TC-BRBs’ Pcr with errors less than 3%. In the first phase experiment, two 1/5-scale TC-BRB specimens, each of 6.3m long with the 1016-kN nominal yield strength anda constant- or varying-depth truss design, were tested in NCREE. Cyclic test results confirm that the Plim of the two TC-BRB specimens can be accurately predicted using the proposed analytical model with errors less than 6% when the effects of residual stresses in the truss members are considered. In the second phase experiment, two additional specimens were fabricated with significantly increased stability capacities. Cyclic test results show that the Plim of these two specimens can also be accurately predicted with the errors less than 7%, further confirm the reliability of the proposed analytical model. The TC-BRBs’ experimental performance also suggests that the proposed design procedures are generally conservative and practical. This study concludes with the recommendations, produres and examples on the seismic design of the proposed TC-BRBs using the constant- or varying-depth trussses.

TitleThe seismic performance of reinforced concrete columns using the lap-spliced crosstie with various axial load

Keywordslap-spliced crosstie, lap splice length, axial tension, RC columns, seismic performance
AbstractA lap-spliced crosstie consists of two J-shaped steel bars (rebars) that have a straight end and an end featuring a 180° hook. In this study, the cyclic lateral load test of four large-scale reinforced concrete columns with axial force proportional to the lateral force was conducted to discuss the seismic performance of RC columns with lap-spliced crossties and investigate the axial tension load effect. The research results are presented as follows: (a) The seismic performance of the specimens that adopted lap-spliced crossties is superior to that of the specimen using conventional crossties and worse than that of the specimen using crossties featuring a 180° hook on the two ends. (b) The ductility of RC columns comprising lap-spliced crossties, crossties featuring a 180° hook on the two ends and conventional crossties under axial tension is superior to that under axial compression. (c) For RC columns under axial compression, when the axial force ratio is less than 30%, lap-spliced crossties can be used instead of conventional crossties. (d) The inner columns of the building structure are subjected to large axial compression. When the columns are only subjected to axial compression during the earthquake, and the column axial force ratio is greater than 30%, the use of lap-spliced crossties can not only meet the ACI design requirements, but also facilitate the construction. (e) When the columns are subjected to repeated axial forces (axial compression and axial tension) during the earthquake, generally speaking, the column axial force ratio in this case is less than 30%. In this case, lap-spliced crossties can be used to replace conventional crossties.

Keywordswater supply facilities, seismic evaluation, liquid storage tank
AbstractWhen carrying out the seismic evaluation and analysis procedure of the liquid storage tank, the static load, live load, soil load, fluid load, temperature load and seismic load must be estimated first. The seismic load can be divided into earthquake-induced fluid dynamic load, dynamic load of the soil and the seismic force induced by the self-weight of the structure. Firstly, the dynamic load of the fluid caused by the earthquake can be further divided into the fluid impulsive modal load, the fluid convective modal load, and the horizontal dynamic load caused by the vertical vibration of the fluid. Secondly, the soil dynamic load caused earthquakes can also be divided into active soil pressure and passive soil pressure. In addition, the vertical seismic force of the liquid storage tank and the lateral inertial force of the tank wall should also be considered. This study focuses on load demand assessment methods and seismic evaluation process for the common pool-like water tank structure in Taiwan to make the seismic evaluation and analysis procedures more feasible and reasonable.

關鍵字跨斷層橋梁、非線性動力歷時、多支承輸入、地表位移輸入
摘要目前橋梁耐震規範主要是透過放大係數來考慮近斷層效應,對於跨斷層 橋梁並無相關的規定。然而跨斷層橋梁在斷層線兩側由於會因地表相對錯動而導致不同的變形趨勢,因此在數值模擬上必須採用多支承非同步輸入,計算橋梁模型在地震作用下的結構地震反應。本研究之目的在建立以地表位移輸入法為基礎之多支承地震輸入方式,用以探討跨斷層橋梁受地震作用之反應。首先以近斷層地震的地表加速度歷時經數值積分得到對應的地表位移歷時,利用多支承位移輸入方式進行非線性動力歷時分析來模擬跨斷層橋梁的地震反應。並進一步比較地表位移分配方式、斷層穿越角度、橋面板支承形式等對於跨斷層橋梁受震反應之影響。數值模擬結果顯示非同步輸入地震歷時會使橋梁結構產生局部較大變形與內力;同步輸入地震歷時則會使橋梁結構產生較大的絕對加速度。此外,本文就位移的分配方式區分為絕對錯位和相對錯位兩種,數值結果顯示在內力計算的部分,相對錯位與絕對錯位所得之最大值差異不大;但變形的部分,絕對錯位所得之最大值往往高於相對錯位所得之最大值。模擬同時顯示斷層水平角45度的作用下,對於柱底扭矩會產生較明顯的放大,但其餘物理量會小於斷層水平角90度的作用。最後,本文依主梁與柱頂接合處不同的邊界條件,將橋型分為連續橋、簡支梁橋和構架橋等三種。構架橋與連續橋的最大歷時反應相當接近,簡支梁橋各項物理量的最大歷時反應相較於連續橋可能增大或減少。
TitleSeismic Performance of Crossing–fault Bridges

KeywordsCrossing-fault bridge, nonlinear time history, multiple excitation, ground displacement input
AbstractThe influences of near-fault earthquakes are taken into account only by the magnification factors in the seismic design code for highway bridges. There are no related specifications about crossing-fault bridges in the design code. However, cross-fault bridges which are subjected to different ground motions at opposite sides of the fault line suffer more attacks in earthquakes. In this study, the seismic responses of cross-fault bridges are simulated with the multiple-excitation method and solved by nonlinear dynamic time history analyses. The displacement time history of each excitation is obtained by integrating the acceleration time history of a near-fault ground motion. The influences of the velocity impulse and residual displacements of near-fault earthquakes on the seismic responses of cross-fault bridges are discussed. In addition, the effects of the boundary conditions of the bridge deck and the angle between the bridge and fault line on the seismic responses of cross-fault bridges are also elaborated here. Numerical results demonstrate that the multiple-excitation simulation obtained larger local deformation and internal forces. On the other hand, the single-excitation simulation obtained larger absolute acceleration. Moreover, the ground displacements from integration are further divided into absolute displacements and relative displacements, which are assigned to the ground motions at opposite sides of the fault line. Numerical results show that there are no obvious differences on internal forces between these two displacement distributions. However, the absolute displacement generates larger member deformation. Moreover, the torsions at the bottom of bridge columns are magnified when the fault angle is 45°. Finally, the influences of different boundary conditions between bridge slabs and columns on the seismic responses are investigated. The seismic responses of rigid connections are similar to those of pin connections while the seismic responses of simply supported bridges have different characteristics

摘要本研究探討既有群樁基礎橋梁,因沖刷導致基礎裸露前、後之耐震性能及倒塌機率。首先,針對土壤結構互制行為進行實驗與分析比較。根據群樁基礎單柱結構之雙軸向大型振動台實驗結果,比較美國石油協會(API )、日本道路橋示方書(JRA)及本研究之等值線性土壤彈簧法。研究結果顯示,在綜合考量時間成本與結果準確度下,API土壤彈簧法是較佳之樁土互制模擬方式。爰此,將API土壤彈簧應用至一座四跨全橋模型,採用增量動力分析法(IDA)並參考FEMA P58流程,探討不同橋基裸露程度之破壞模式、構件轉角韌性容量與不同等級地震之耐震能力與破壞機率,最後再與公路橋梁耐震評估與補強設計規範草案(2018年版)之靜力側推分析法進行比較。案例分析顯示,FEMA P58要求等級III地震作用下倒塌機率小於 10%,對於橋梁結構過於嚴格。短柱位置之樁基礎發生裸露時,對整體耐震性能有明顯降低。採用側推分析進行勁度不規則橋梁之耐震能力評估時, 其結構反應較動力分析有不保守的疑慮。

Last, pushover analysis for irregularly bridge may underestimate its reaction compare to nonlinear time history analysis. All in all, this simplified probabilistic procedure can be used as a reference for future seismic performance evaluation for bridges.

AbstractTo quantify the post-earthquake residual seismic capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) column members, the static-cyclic loading and dynamic loading experimental results obtained in previous work, and the “Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center Structural Performance Database (PEER)” are used to obtain reduction factors of strength, stiffness and energy dissipation. This work also applies the method of the modified nonlinear hinge and proposes the preliminary and detailed seismic performance assessment method for the residual seismic performance of earthquake-damaged RC buildings.

關鍵字校舍耐震補強、翼牆、擴柱、剪力牆、工程經費
摘要我國中小學校舍補強計畫從民國九十八年累積至今,已經普查了三萬多棟校舍建物,其中累積的補強案例資料具有相當大的分析價值。三萬多棟校舍所累積的評估資料及工程報告複雜且龐大,透過耐震補強資料庫得以妥善記錄補強各階段之資料。本研究依據校舍耐震補強資料庫,分析單價與地區、補強工法及耐震容量提升程度之關係,期能作為未來估算耐震補強工程經費之參考依據。
本研究針對校舍補強資料庫資料,在分析上分別藉由地區、工法以及耐震容量提升程度進行補強工程經費影響因素分析。影響補強工程經費的因素眾多,本文僅透過資料庫的資料探討單價與上述三種因素之間的關係。在校舍補強工法使用次數統計中,翼牆、擴柱及剪力牆為最常使用的補強方式,相較之下其它補強方式則為少數。本研究主要以翼牆、擴柱及剪力牆三種補強方式進行初步分析。

Keywordsschool building seismic retrofit, wing wall, RC jacketing, shear wall, construction cost
AbstractThe cases in the school building seismic retrofit have significant values for data analysis. The school building seismic retrofit data has been accumulated since 2009. More than 30,000 school building structures have been generally surveyed. More than 17,000 of them were preliminarily evaluated, and more than 10,000 of them which had significant risk of damage from earthquakes were evaluated. More than 6,000 of them have been retrofitted. As long as the analysis results are properly utilized, we will have more comprehensive understanding of construction cost, as well as potential for improving the administrative processes.
Based on the aforementioned database, this research analyzed the factors affecting the construction cost based on school locations, retrofit methods, and seismic capacity increment. In the statistics of the use of school building retrofit methods, it is found that wing walls, RC jacketing, and shear walls are the most commonly used retrofit methods. There are many factors that affect the project cost. This article studied the relationship between the retrofit cost and the above three factors through the data analysis.

關鍵字近斷層地震、隔震、鉛心橡膠支承墊、非線性動力歷時分析、強地動模型
摘要近斷層脈衝型震波因為含有中長週期速度脈衝,已為隔震結構之有效性帶來挑戰。然而台灣建築結構耐震設計規範並未提供具體作法來考慮脈衝型震波對隔震系統之影響,若因為脈衝型地震有可能造成隔震器過大位移而無法在近斷層區域採用,影響將十分重大。
本文提出一套流程將脈衝型地震的影響合理地納入隔震系統之設計,此設計流程不更動現行法規要求,建議以現行耐震設計規範公告之設計反應譜進行隔震系統之初步設計,再輔以定值法建立之脈衝地震檢核反應譜以及適當選取之脈衝型地震紀錄,透過非線性動力歷時分析進行隔震系統及上部結構之性能檢核。本文並以一棟位於臺北盆地的15層韌性抗彎鋼構建築為例,考慮山腳斷層發生規模7.3並產生長週期脈衝之地震,說明如何以本文提出之流程進行隔震系統之設計,包括檢核反應譜之建立、地震紀錄之選取與縮放、以及隔震系統及上部結構之性能檢核。

KeywordsNear-Fault Ground Motions; Base Isolation; Lead-Rubber Bearings; Non-Linear Response-History Analysis; GMPE
AbstractModernbuilding codes do not provide clearguidelineson the design of base-isolation systems against pulse-like ground motions, which may produce excessive displacement demand for isolators and endanger the systems. A procedureis proposed in this paper to address the impact of pulse-like ground motionson isolation systems. The procedure involves 1) the development of an “evaluation spectrum” using newly developed Taiwan ground motion prediction equations and a model for the ratio of spectral accelerations of pulse-like to non-pulse ground motions, and 2) selection and scaling of pulse-like records for nonlinear response-history analysis of the isolated building of interest. This paper presents an example of a 15-story steel special moment resisting frame isolated using lead-rubber bearings to demonstrate the proposed procedure.

關鍵字系統補強、隔震支承、換底工法 
摘要國內橋梁設計規範自民國76年版起,經過??耐震設計規範的改版更新,地震力多有提昇,為使既有橋梁符合現行規範之耐震能力標準,國道高速公路局自民國88年921集集地震後,持續推動橋梁耐震能力詳細評估,針對耐震能力不足者,分期辦理耐震補強工程。
橋梁基礎補強之工程經費較高,故優先採用「系統補強」的策略,研擬隔震或減震方案,當既有上部結構與橋墩之接合為故固接時,無法直接增設隔震支承,本文以國道3號高速公路「東山服務區跨越橋」為例,說明既有固接橋墩增設隔震支承之設計考量重點及方法。另外,部份橋梁有於河川行水區設置直接基礎的情形,因環境變遷與河床逐年下降,恐有基礎板底部承載層沖蝕疑慮,為一併辦理橋梁基礎耐震與耐洪能力的提昇,可考慮採用基礎置換工法(或稱換底工法),本文第二部份以國道3號高速公路「梅林溪排水橋」為例,說明直接基礎置換為樁基礎之施工步驟及方法。
TitleSeismic Isolation Retrofit and Foundation Replacement of Freeway Bridge

Keywordssystem of retrofit method, seismic isolator, foundation replacement method
AbstractTaiwan’s bridge seismic design specifications have evolved several version from 1987. In order to meet the seismic requirements under newest version specification. Freeway Bureau, MOTC has started existing bridge seismic capability evaluation and retrofitted after Chi-Chi Earthquake in 1999.
Because foundation retrofitting are expansive, we prefer to use “system retrofit method”. Conduct the feasibility studies on seismic isolation and damping devices. While the superstructure and pier are rigid connected, isolation bearing can’t install directly. An example of this is “Dong-Shan Bridge”. In this study, we explain the design considerations and methods of adding seismic isolation bearing to existing rigid piers. Furthermore, there are some cases where the spread foundation base will be scouring. An example of this is “Mei-Lin Bridge”. In order to increase earthquake and flood resistance at the same time. We use foundation replacement method to make spread foundation replace to pile foundation..

摘要隨著隔震技術的發展推廣,國內部分橋梁開始採用隔震支承作為其抗震的選擇,從早期第二高速公路的部份橋梁,到1999年921集集地震後遭到破壞的一些公路橋梁重建,隔震技術在國內橋梁工程的應用已將近三十年。交通部頒「公路橋梁設計規範」(97年)亦新增「隔震與消能設計」章節。由於鄰近活動斷層之地震,通常具有較長週期的脈衝震波,隔震橋亦具有較長振動周期特性,隨著經濟部中央地質調查所公告第一類活動斷層的增加,位於鄰近活動斷層之既有隔震橋,在近斷層地震波作用下,可能造成共振現象,產生超出原設計預期之較大變位。
本文以位在國3白河新化段的嘉南大圳北幹線一號排水橋為研究案例,利用隔震支承原型試驗結果,建立隔震橋梁分析模型,以探討一般遠域地震及近域地震對此隔震橋梁的影響與可行補強方法。研究結果顯示,因耐震規範地震力的改變,在一般遠域地震下,隔震支承即可能超出原設計位移量,而在近域地震下,當脈衝震波週期接近隔震橋梁振動週期時,位移將更加放大。經檢討研究,該橋之耐震補強方法,採用保留既有隔震支承,加裝液態黏滯性阻尼器(FVD),增加整體橋梁系統阻尼,以降低隔震支承位移反應。
TitleSeismic Evaluation and Retrofit of the Isolated Bridge near Active Faults: Chianan Irrigation, Beigan No. 1 bridge
AuthorChih-Siou Gao, Tien-Jen Hsiao, Ming-Shing Wu,Kang-Yu Peng,Guo-Long Chen
KeywordsIsolated bridge, Near-fault effect, Seismic Evaluation and Retrofit, Fluid Viscous Damper
AbstractWith the development of the seismic isolation technology in Taiwan, Seismic isolation bearing has been used in some bridges to resist earthquakes. Since the construction of freeway NO.3 and the reconstruction of the bridge damaged by Chi-Chi earthquake,isolation technology has been used in three decade.MOTC also added a chapter “Seismic Isolation and Energy Dissipation Design” to “Specification for Seismic Design of Highways and Bridges” (2008).But the pulses in the near fault ground motion have a large ­ displacement response which is exceed the design displacementon isolated bridges due to their long period property.
Take “Chia-nan Irrigation Channel No.1 Bridge” for example. We studied the effects of earthquakes near and far fault region on seismic behavior of isolated bridge, and suggest the retrofit method. This research shows that resultant displacement of the existing seismic isolated bearings may exceed the design displacement under the far-fault earthquake due to the seismic force increased.Furthermore, the resultant displacement will be much larger under the near-fault earthquake when the period of the isolated bridge is closed to the pulse period.Finally, we install fluid viscous damper (FVD) to increase the overall bridge system damping and to reduce the displacement response of the seismic isolated bearing.

摘要本研究統整台灣近40年的試驗資料並建立「台灣混凝土收縮與潛變資料庫」,並比較國內外資料庫後,發現台灣混凝土有漿體量高、低水灰比、低粒料勁度等特性,若直接套用國外預測式將不保守。故選用Bažant的Model B4為預測公式之基礎,對以上參數進行本土化修正,提出台灣普通混凝土之預測式。另外,近年來混凝土常添加卜作嵐材料,本研究將普通混凝土預測式延伸,針對添加卜作嵐材料之混凝土再進一步修正。混凝土潛變行為對於長跨預力橋梁長期變形影響甚鉅,為比較本土化與國外收縮潛變預測公式對橋梁長期變形的差異,本研究使用MIDAS Civil建立預力橋梁模型,套用國內外預測模型並比較分析結果,發現國外預測模型有嚴重低估變位與預力損失的現象,實務上若直接套用國外規範進行設計將會錯估使用年限與結構長期變位。
TitleRegression of Creep Prediction Formula of Concrete in Taiwan Basedon Database Analysisandits Applicationon Prestressed Concrete Bridge

AbstractThis research integrates the test data of the past 40 years in Taiwan and establishes the “Shrinkage and Creep Database in Taiwan”. After comparing the domestic and foreign database, it is found that concrete in Taiwan has high cementitious material content, low water-cement ratio, and low aggregate stiffness, and it is not conservative if the foreign prediction model is directly applied. Therefore, Bažant’s Model B4 was selected as the basis of the prediction model, and the above parameters were localized and revised, and the prediction model of Taiwan ordinary concrete was proposed. In addition, this study extends the prediction model of ordinary concrete and revises the concrete with pozzolanic materials. Creep of concrete has a great influence on the long-term deformation of long-span prestressed bridges. In order to compare the difference between the domestic and foreign shrinkage and creep prediction models on the long-term deformation of the bridge, this study uses MIDAS Civil to establish a prestressed concrete bridge, and compares the analysis results between domestic and foreign prediction models. It is found that the foreign prediction models have seriously underestimated the deformation and prestress loss.
