Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Çelik Köprü I-kirişlerine Yanal Destek Sağlayan Trapez Sac Kalıpların Mukavemeti(Turkish Chamber of Civil Engineers, 2009) Eğilmez, Oğuz Özgür; Alkan, DenizTrapez Sac Kalıplar (TSK) hem çelik bina hem de çelik köprü sektörlerinde beton döşemenin kalıp sistemi olarak sıklıkla kullanılmaktadırlar. TSK’ler her ne kadar bina inşaatlarında çelik I-kirişlere yanal destek sağlayıcı elemanlar olarak işlev görseler de, çelik köprü sektöründe trapez sac kalıplardan destek elemanları olarak yararlanılmasına izin verilmez. Ancak, önceki çalışmalar birleşim detayının geliştirilmesi durumunda TSK sisteminin kirişin yanal kararlılığına belirgin şekilde destek sağlayabildiğini göstermiştir. Bu makale halen devam etmekte olan ve TSK’lerin mukavemetinin incelendiği analitik bir çalışmanın ara sonuçlarını içermektedir. Geçmişte, TSK sistemleriyle desteklenen köprü kirişlerin genel burkulma davranışını irdeleyen basit sonlu elemanlar modelleri (SEM) kullanılmıştır. Bu çalışmada TSK’leri hem birbirlerine hem de kirişlere bağlayan vidalardaki kararlılık destek kuvvetlerini belilemek için kullanılan geliştirilmiş bir sonlu elemanlar modelinin sonuçlarına yer verilmiştir. Bu çözümleme sonuçları TSK’lerin içermesi gereken mukavemet ihtiyacını belirleyecek olan bir tasarım yönteminin geliştirilmesinde kullanılacaktır.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Strength Requirements of Permanent Metal Deck Forms Used for Lateral Bracing of Steel Bridge Girders(2006) Eğilmez, Oğuz Özgür; Helwig, T.A.; Herman, R.S.Permanent metal deck forms (PMDF) are often used in steel bridges to support the weight of the wet concrete during deck construction. Although the PMDF also has the potential to provide bracing to steel bridge girders during construction, the stiffness of the PMDF system as a lateral brace is drastically reduced by the eccentric support angle connection detail used to attach the forms to the girders. Laboratory tests have shown that a simple modification to the connection detail can substantially increase the stiffness of these PMDF systems and allow utilization of the PMDF for girder bracing. This paper presents results from a parametrical study conducted to determine stability and strength requirements for PMDF used to provide lateral bracing to steel bridge girders. Detailed FEA models were used to determine the stability bracing strength requirements for the fasteners that are used to connect the PMDF along the sidelaps of the sheets and to the girders. Design expressions are presented as well as an example demonstrating the use of the design equations.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Cyclic Behavior of Steel I-Beams Modified by a Welded Haunch and Reinforced With Gfrp(Techno Press, 2009) Eğilmez, Oğuz Özgür; Alkan, Deniz; Özdemir, TimurFlange and web local buckling in beam plastic hinge regions of steel moment frames can prevent beam-column connections from achieving adequate plastic rotations under earthquake-induced forces. Reducing the flange-web slendemess ratios (FSR/WSR) of beams is the most effective way in mitigating local member buckling as stipulated in the latest seismic design specifications. However, existing steel moment frame buildings with beams that lack the adequate slendemess ratios set forth for new buildings are vulnerable to local member buckling and thereby system-wise instability prior to reaching the required plastic rotation capacities specified for new buildings. This paper presents results from a research study investigating the cyclic behavior of steel I-beams modified by a welded haunch at the bottom flange and reinforced with glass fiber reinforced polymers at the plastic hinge region. Cantilever I-sections with a triangular haunch at the bottom flange and flange slendemess ratios higher then those stipulated in current design specifications were analyzed under reversed cyclic loading. Beam sections with different depth/width and flange/web slendemess ratios (FSR/WSR) were considered. The effect of GFRP thickness, width, and length on stabilizing plastic local buckling was investigated. The FEA results revealed that the contribution of GFRP strips to mitigation of local buckling increases with increasing depth/width ratio and decreasing FSR and WSR. Provided that the interfacial shear strength of the steel/GFRP bond surface is at least 15 MPa, GFRP reinforcement can enable deep beams with FSR of 8-9 and WSR below - to maintain plastic rotations in the order of 0.02 radians without experiencing any local buckling.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 7Lateral Stiffness of Steel Bridge I-Girders Braced by Metal Deck Forms(American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2009) Eğilmez, Oğuz Özgür; Herman, Reagan S.; Helwig, Todd A.The lateral-torsional buckling capacity of steel bridge girders is often increased by incorporating bracing along the girder length. Permanent metal deck forms (PMDF) that are used to support the wet concrete deck during bridge construction are a likely source of stability bracing; however, their bracing performance is greatly limited by flexibility in the connections currently used with the formwork. This paper outlines results from a research study that assessed and improved the bracing potential of metal deck forms used in bridge applications. The research study included shear tests of PMDF panels, and also lateral displacement and buckling tests of twin girder systems braced with PMDF. This paper will provide key results from the shear panel tests and then focus on the lateral displacement tests. Parametric investigations of PMDF bracing behavior were conducted using finite-element analyses and the results from the lateral displacement tests served a critical role in calibrating the finite element models. This paper documents key results from lateral load tests of 17 girder-PMDF systems using a variety of bracing details and PMDF thickness values. © 2009 ASCEArticle Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 15Stiffness and Strength of Metal Bridge Deck Forms(American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2007) Eğilmez, Oğuz Özgür; Helwig, Todd A.; Jetann, Charles A.; Lowery, RichardLight gauge metal sheeting is often utilized in the building and bridge industries for concrete formwork. Although the in-plane stiffness and strength of the metal forms are commonly relied upon for stability bracing in buildings, the forms are generally not considered for bracing in steel bridge construction. The primary difference between the forming systems in the two industries is the method of connection between the forms and girders. In bridge construction, an eccentric support angle is incorporated into the connection details to achieve a uniform slab thickness along the girder length. While the eccentric connection is a benefit for slab construction, the flexible connection limits the amount of bracing provided by the forms. This paper presents results from the first phase of a research study investigating the bracing behavior of metal bridge deck forms. Shear diaphragm tests were conducted to determine the shear stiffness and strength of bridge deck forms, and modified connection details were developed that substantially improve the bracing behavior of the forms. The measured stiffness and strength of diaphragms with the modified connection often met or exceeded the values of diaphragms with conventional noneccentric connections. The experimental results for the diaphragms with the modified connection details dramatically improve the potential for bracing of steel bridge girders by metal deck forms.
