Avec le vieillissement des infrastructures routières au Québec, plusieurs ponts de courte portée devront être reconstruits à neuf au cours des prochaines années. La pratique usuelle est de les concevoir entièrement en béton ou en systèmes mixtes acier-béton. Toutefois, avec l’avancement de la recherche dans le domaine du bois, le système hybride bois-béton est envisageable. Le but est de tirer profit des avantages de chaque matériau en les disposant aux endroits appropriés. Le tablier du pont est constitué d’une dalle de béton qui agit en compression et protège des intempéries les poutres en bois lamellé-collé qui résistent en traction. L’enjeu est la capacité de lier efficacement ces deux matériaux pour qu’ils puissent reprendre les efforts dus aux charges de conception avec un glissement d’interface minimal. De nombreux chercheurs ont proposé diverses méthodes pour répondre à cette problématique. Les connecteurs locaux (vis, clous) sont moins rigides et se déforment beaucoup à l’ultime. À l’inverse, les connecteurs continus offrent une rigidité très élevée, de petits déplacements à rupture sans négliger la plasticité du système. Pour cette raison, le connecteur choisi est le HBV Shear, une mince bande d’acier de 90mm de hauteur perforée de trous de 10mm. Sa moitié inférieure est collée dans une fente pratiquée dans la poutre et la partie supérieure est immergée dans le béton. Pour caractériser le comportement du connecteur, dix essais en cisaillement simple ont été effectués. Ils ont permis de quantifier la rigidité et d’apprécier la ductilité qui s’installe dans le système par l’ajout de l’acier. Par la suite, six poutres hybrides simple de 4 m, deux systèmes à poutres double de 4m et deux poutres hybrides de 12m de portée ont été amenées à la rupture en flexion. Ces essais ont montré que le connecteur se brisait sous l’effort de manière ductile avant la rupture fragile de la poutre en bois. Les résultats ont aussi prouvé que les méthodes de calculs utilisées estiment correctement la séquence de rupture ainsi que le comportement du système avec une très grande efficacité. Finalement, un tablier de pont composite a été conçu pour résister aux efforts à l’ultime, en service et à long terme.

Abstract: Highway bridges have great values in a country because in case of any natural disaster they may serve as lines to save people’s lives. Being vulnerable under significant seismic loads, different methods can be considered to design resistant highway bridges and rehabilitate the existing ones. In this study, base isolation has been considered as one efficient method in this regards which in some cases reduces significantly the seismic load effects on the structure. By reducing the ductility demand on the structure without a notable increase of strength, the structure is designed to remain elastic under seismic loads. The problem associated with the isolated bridges, especially with elastomeric bearings, can be their excessive displacements under service and seismic loads. This can defy the purpose of using elastomeric bearings for small to medium span typical bridges where expansion joints and clearances may result in significant increase of initial and maintenance cost. Thus, supplementing the structure with dampers with some stiffness can serve as a solution which in turn, however, may increase the structure base shear. The main objective of this thesis is to provide a simplified method for the evaluation of optimal parameters for dampers in isolated bridges. Firstly, performing a parametric study, some directions are given for the use of simple isolation devices such as elastomeric bearings to rehabilitate existing bridges with high importance. Parameters like geometry of the bridge, code provisions and the type of soil on which the structure is constructed have been introduced to a typical two span bridge. It is concluded that the stiffness of the substructure, soil type and special provisions in the code can determine the employment of base isolation for retrofitting of bridges. Secondly, based on the elastic response coefficient of isolated bridges, a simplified design method of dampers for seismically isolated regular highway bridges has been presented in this study. By setting objectives for reduction of displacement and base shear variation, the required stiffness and damping of a hysteretic damper can be determined. By modelling a typical two span bridge, numerical analyses have followed to verify the effectiveness of the method. The method has been used to identify equivalent linear parameters and subsequently, nonlinear parameters of hysteretic damper for various designated scenarios of displacement and base shear requirements. Comparison of the results of the nonlinear numerical model without damper and with damper has shown that the method is sufficiently accurate. Finally, an innovative and simple hysteretic steel damper was designed. Five specimens were fabricated from two steel grades and were tested accompanying a real scale elastomeric isolator in the structural laboratory of the Université de Sherbrooke. The test procedure was to characterize the specimens by cyclic displacement controlled tests and subsequently to test them by real-time dynamic substructuring (RTDS) method. The test results were then used to establish a numerical model of the system which went through nonlinear time history analyses under several earthquakes. The outcome of the experimental and numerical showed an acceptable conformity with the simplified method.
