ACECC Workshop on Harmonization of Design Codes in the Asian RegionNovember 4, 2006

Taiwan


I. Current Status of Design Codes for Structures in Korea

Design Code for Highway Bridges- approved by MOCT

- developed by KRTA (Korea Road & Transportation Association)

- contains

1) General scope

2) Loads and others

3) Steel bridges (ASD)

4) Concrete bridges (Strength Design)

5) Substructures

6) Seismic Design

LRFD Code

- Developed in 1996, MOCT

- practically not in use

- AASHTO-LRFD: first being used for Incheon Grand Bridge



Design Code for Buildings- approved by MOCT

- Steel Building(LRFD) by KSSC and AIK (Architectural Institute of Korea)

- Concrete Building(LRFD) by KCI and AIK

Design Code for Steel Structures- approved by MOCT

- developed by KSSC (Korean Society of Steel Construction)

- based on Allowable Stress Design



Design Code for Concrete Structures- LRFD

- approved by MOCT

- developed by KCI (Korea Concrete Institute)

Design Code for Railway Bridges- ASD

- approved by MOCT

- developed by KSSC and KSCE (Steel Bridges)

KCI and KSCE (Concrete Bridges)


II. Development of New Design Codes

Demand on LRFD codes for highway and railway bridges

Demand on Performance-based design codes

- starts a preliminary research project to develop a design guideline

supported by MOCT (2006. 10 ~ 2009. 10)

- proposed a RFP to develop a performance-based design code for

steel highway bridges (5 years project)


• Most international bidding of construction projects in Asian market require internationally approved codes and standards.

• However, the international codes do not reflect the local natural conditions, socio-cultural environment, technology, and workmanship inthe Asian region.

• The need of Asian Steel Code is widely recognized to provide the basis for commonstandards for steel construction industry in Asia.

III. Code Harminization in the Asian Region- Steel Structures -


• The competition with concrete construction isgetting higher in construction market.

• In order to compete with concrete constructionand share the construction market in Asiancountries, more advanced, unified, globally acceptable codes and standards – a common performance-based standards – for steel construction is urgently required because the Asian Concrete Model Code based on the performance-based design has been developed already.

• Asian Concrete Model Code (ACMC 2001) hasbeen developed by International Committee onConcrete Model Code (ICCMC), whose membersare representatives from 13 Asian countriesand Australia.

7 professional organizations in Asian countriessupport the development of ACMC 2001:China – Japan – Korea, India, Indonesia, Philippines, SriLanka.



• International Committee on Asian Code for SteelStructures (ICACSS), needs to be established, as soon as possible, in order to implement the road map for further research and developmentas well as code writing works.



During PSSC98 held in Seoul, the first informaltalk was initiated by Prof. Fukumoto about thenecessity for organizing the ICACSS (International Committee on Asian Code of Steel Structures) and the need to have further talk.

The first official meeting on ICACSS was heldin Tokyo, June 2000, by the InternationalCommittee of JSSC under the leadership ofProf. Gato, Prof. Fukumoto, and Prof.Takanashi.

III. Code Harminization in the Asian Region- Current State of Progress for Asian Steel Code -


• 2nd formal meeting on Asian Steel Code during the 8th C-J-K symposium on Structural Steel Construction in Seoul, Oct. 2005.

• No agreement on further talks on Asian Steel Code.
