중앙버스전용차로는 일반 도로 대비 높은 교통량과 반복적인 축하중이 작용하는 구간으로, 정차 및 출발 과정에서 발생 하는 국부적인 응력 집중으로 인해 포장 파손이 빈번하게 발생한다. 그러나 기존 도로 설계에서는 정적인 교통량을 기준 으로 축하중을 산정하여, 실제 교통 환경에서의 버스 유형별 차이, 재차 인원, 시간대별 하중 변화 등 동적인 요소를 충 분히 반영하지 못하는 한계가 존재한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 대중교통 빅데이터를 활용하여 중앙버스전용차로의 버스 유 형 및 시간대별 재차 인원을 반영한 새로운 축하중 산정 모델을 개발하였다. 이를 위해 서울시 열린 데이터 광장의 교통 정보를 활용하여 버스 유형 및 시간대별 재차 인원 데이터를 수집하고, 카카오맵 및 네이버 로드뷰 데이터를 이용해 결 측치를 보완하여 데이터셋을 구축하였다. 구축된 데이터셋을 활용하여 기존 ESAL(Equivalent Single Axle Load) 방식과 비교 분석한 결과, 새로운 축하중 모델에서는 기존 방식 대비 평균 111.8% 높은 축하중이 산정되었으며, 일부 구간에서 는 최대 128.9%까지 차이가 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 기존 포장 설계가 중앙버스전용차로의 실질적인 교통 하중 을 충분히 반영하지 못하고 있음을 시사하며, 추가적으로 버스 중하중의 가·감속의 영향을 고려한다면, 시간대별·노선별 실시간 축하중 변화를 보다 정밀하게 분석할 수 있으며, 이를 통해 과소 산정된 설계 하중을 보완하고 포장 공용성을 향 상시킬 수 있는 최적의 설계 및 유지보수 전략 수립이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

The purpose of this study was to optimize the design of asphalt concrete pavements for Jeju Island by considering the regional characteristics of the island. This study employed an MEPDG program to determine the allowable traffic loads for class 4 vehicles by considering the axle loads, climate, and material properties. Samples of basalt asphalt concrete from Jeju were used to measure the dynamic modulus for material property estimation. The climate input was based on 30-year climate data from Jeju. The thicknesses and moduli of the subgrade, subbase, and asphalt layers were incorporated into the design. The regression-analysis program SPSS was used to develop a regression equation for the overlay design, factoring in the modulus and thickness ratios between the existing and overlay asphalt layers. A pavement-thickness design formula tailored to Jeju's characteristics was derived. An equivalent single-axle load factor (ESALF) formula was developed to facilitate traffic-load estimation for different roads, enabling the easy incorporation of varying traffic volumes into the design. The ESALF formula demonstrated a high correlation with the pavement thickness, subgrade conditions, and axle loads, whereas the pavementthickness design formula exhibited strong correlations with the pavement thickness, subgrade state, thickness ratios, and modulus ratios. The use of basalt aggregates in asphalt concrete pavements provides an economically viable and technically sound solution for Jeju. The proposed design methodology not only reduces costs but also enhances pavement performance and road safety. The developed formulas offer flexibility in adjusting designs based on specific traffic conditions, providing optimal pavement solutions for different road categories.

PURPOSES: The purpose of this article is to investigate the predicted life of jointed concrete pavement (JCP) with two variables effecting on axle load spectra (ALS). The first variable is different data acquisition methods whether using high-speed weigh-in-motion (HS-WIM) or not and the other one is spectra distribution due to overweight enforcement on main-lane of expressway using HS-WIM. METHODS : Three sets of ALS had been collected i) ALS provided by Korea Pavement Research Program (KPRP), which had been obtained without using HS-WIM ii) ALS collected by HS-WIM before the enforcement at Kimcheon and Seonsan site iii) ALS collected after the enforcement at the same sites. And all ALS had been classified into twelve vehicle classes and four axle types to compare each other. Among the vehicle classes, class 6, 7, 10 and 12 were selected as the major target for comparing each ALS because these were considered as the primary trucks with a high rate of overweight loading. In order to analyze the performance of JCP based on pavement life, fatigue crack and International Roughness Index (IRI) were predicted using road pavement design program developed by KPRP and each ALS with same annual average daily traffic (AADT) was applied to design slab thickness. RESULTS: Comparison ALS of KPRP with those of HS-WIM shows that the ALS of KPRP has a low percentage of heavy spectra such as 6~9 tonnes for single axle, 18~21 tonnes for tandem axle and 27~30 tonnes for tridem axle than other two ALS of HS-WIM in most vehicle classes and axle types. It means that ALS of KPRP was underestimated. And after the enforcement, percentage of heavy spectra close to 10 tonnes per an axle are lowered than before the enforcement by the effect of overweight enforcement because the spectra are related to overweight regulation. Prediction results of pavement life for each ALS present that the ALS of HS-WIM collected before the enforcement makes the pavement life short more than others. On the other hand, the ALS of KPRP causes the longest life under same thickness of slab. Thus, it is possible that actual performance life of JCP under the traffic like ALS of HS-WIM could be short than predicted life if the pavement was designed based on ALS provided by KPRP. CONCLUSIONS : It is necessary to choose more reliable and practical ALS when designing JCP because ALS can be fairly affected by acquisition methods. In addition, it is important to extend performance life of the pavement in service by controlling traffic load such as overweight enforcement.

본 연구는 현재 수행중인 "한국형 포장 설계법 개발과 포장성능 개선방안 연구"의 일환으로 역학-경험적 포장 설계법에 사용될 교통하중 입력변수를 정량화하기 위해서 실시하였다. 교통하중 정량화를 위하여 기존의 ESAL 개념이 아닌 축하중 스펙트럼을 이용하였다. 이를 위하여 교통량 통계 연보내 교통량 자료를 가지고 일반 국도에 대한 대표 축하중 조사지점을 차로별, 지역특성별 구분에 따라 33개 지점을 통계적 방법을 이용하여 선정하였다. 그리고 선정된 대표 지점을 대상으로 축하중 계측기를 이용하여 각 차종에 대한 축하중을 조사하였다. 측정된 축하중 자료는 각각 분류된 조건에 따라서 축하중 스펙트럼으로 표준화하였으며, 그 방법으로 누적밀도함수인 S-커브 곡선을 이용하여 각 조건별 계수를 제시하였다.

In this study, the validity of the current vehicle axle load restrictions, enforcement, and permit criteria established for the safety of the road structure were investigated. improvement of the current criteria based on the results of the review were proposed.
