There is concern that the slip coefficient of high-strength bolted joints with different faying surfaces may be lower than that of conventional joints, and it has been reported that the slip coefficient is improved by inserting friction shims. In this study, shims were modified to be disk-shaped, which can be inserted into each bolt hole, for application to arbitrary bolted joints, and their slip resistance was evaluated by slip resistance tests. As a result, it was confirmed that a slip coefficient of 0.6 or higher could be expected with the insertion of shims. Failure modes of the contact surfaces were also investigated by dismantling the specimens after the test and observing the contact surfaces.

Bolt axial force of high-strength bolted joints decreases due to deterioration. One of the conventional methods to evaluate the bolt axial force is ultrasonic testing. However, quantitative evaluation of the bolt axial force is controversial in terms of accuracy, and some problems remain for practical use. This study attempts the accurate evaluation of the bolt axial force by ultrasonic testing. The time zone analysis of the ultrasonic waves indicated that the waveform in the initial time zone includes bolt axial force information. The parasitic discrete wavelet transform (P-DWT) was applied to improve the evaluation accuracy. As a result of targeting bolts manufactured in the same lot, machine learning using linear regression evaluated the unknown bolt axial force within an error of 6% or less. Therefore, it was shown that the proposed method of this study corresponds to the existing bolt and can evaluate the bolt axial force with high accuracy.

<p> Recently, inorganic zinc-rich paints have been increasingly applied to the faying surfaces of high-strength bolted friction joints. The coating thickness of the faying surface is said to affect the slip coefficient of the bolted joint. If the coating thickness on faying surfaces of bolts in existing joints can be measured without disassembly the joints, it is possible to evaluate the structural performance of bolted joints on the basis of the current coating thickness on the faying surfaces and the slip coefficient. Furthermore, if it becomes possible to measure areas of high contact pressure, where the coating thickness changes after joining, this information could be useful for discussing the mechanism of structural performance of bolted joints. In this study, the construction of an ultrasonic measurement method with machine learning showed the feasibility of evaluating the coating thickness on the backside of a single steel plate. Subsequently, an attempt was made to evaluate the coating thickness on faying surfaces of bolts in existing joints without disassembly.</p>

<p> In frictional type pretensioned bolted joints, one specification is employed for contact faces in each joint in principle. Meanwhile, in some cases such as protection works of existing bridges and fabrication of box girders made of weathering steel without coating, introduction of usage of different contact faces in one joint might often allow labor-saving and accelerated works.</p><p> In present study, bolted joints including different contact faces are defined as a hybrid faying surfaces joint, and 33 bolted joint specimens were used in bolt pretension relaxation test and slip test. This paper reports these results and compares degree of pretension loss and slip resistance in hybrid faying surface joints with homogeneous (i.e. normal) joints. Finally, also on the basis of previous research, the applicability and slip coefficient for designing of hybrid faying surfaces joints are discussed regarding.</p>

Trial for improving the accuracy of spatial superimposition in bridge inspection support system using marker-type Augmented Reality Display

In bridge proximity visual inspections, work is often required in dark and cramped spaces. In addition, since many members have similar appearances, there is a possibility of misidentifying the name of a member or its current location. Therefore, there is a need to develop an augmented reality (AR)-based bridge inspection support system to reduce the workload of on-site inspectors, however, the accuracy of the system is a problem and the system has not yet been widely used in the field. In this study, a combination of marker-type AR and a unique system was tried to achieve high accuracy. The performance of the system was also evaluated inside a steel box girder of a road bridge. As a result, it was confirmed that the system developed in this study ensures practical accuracy.
