Recently, the concrete-steel hybrid extradosed bridge has been proposed as alternative bridge type at long span site. The hybrid extradosed bridge adopts light orthogonal deck girder instead of heavy concrete deck girder at the center span of bridge, and it enables to construct long-span bridge. And also, for this bridge type the decrease of self-weight of girder enables to reduce girder depth and side span length of extradosed bridge, so its type has more efficient structural behavior and makes it possible to perform optimal bridge design. Therefore, it is very important to set up the procedure and parameters of optimal design for concrete-steel hybrid extradosed bridge. In this study, the effects of design parameters (the variation of pylon height, bridge deck depth and orthogonal deck girder length) are discussed. And numerical analysis and sensitivity analysis are carried out according to these parameters. And design weight values about these parameters are quantitatively suggested to reflect characteristics of concrete-steel hybrid bridge.

Although a limited number of experimental investigations and finite element analyses revealed that a curved web panel in practical design has a considerable reserve strength after the elastic buckling as a straight girder web panel, the current Guide Specifications for Horizontally Curved Steel Girder Highway Bridges (AASHTO, 2003) do not consider the postbuckling strength in the ultimate shear strength due to lack of a comprehensive study. In this study, the ultimate shear strength behavior of horizontally curved steel web panels was investigated through nonlinear finite element analysis and experimental test. It was found that curved web panels used in practical designs are able to develop the postbuckling strength that is equivalent to that of straight girder web panels having the same dimensional and material properties.

가공배전선로는 야외에 시설되어 하계의 태풍 및 동계의 설해와 같은 자연재해에 상시 노출됨에 따라 지지물 절손 피해가 발생할 우려가 높다. 따라서 직선으로 시설되는 전주가 절손되지 않도록 설계지역의 기상조건을 감안하여 전주강도가 충분한지 여부를 검토하여야 한다. 그러나 현업에 종사하는 설계원들이 어떠한 방법으로 전주강도를 검토하는지에 대한 이해가 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 고에서는 전주강도 계산과 관련하여 연구된 이론을 설명하였고, 그 이론을 바탕으로 장경간개소와 표준경간에 설치되는 전주에 대한 설계방안을 연구한 결과를 사례를 통해서 설명하였다. 본 고에서 제시한 방법에 따라 설계를 시행한다면 직선으로 시공되는 전주들의 강도가 태풍 및 설해에 대비하여 충분히 확보됨에 따라 재해 시에도 이로 인한 전주 절손 피해가 예방될 수 있을 것으로 기대되며, 또한 전기고장 예방을 통한 고품질 전력확보에도 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

In the present study, a new seismic retrofitting method that employs both a stainless steel wire mesh and a permeable polymer concrete mortar was proposed for reinforced concrete bridge piers with nonseismic design details. For this purpose, a total of six nonseismically designed bridge piers were tested under lateral load reversals. The test results reveal that nonseismically designed piers with lap splices need to be retrofitted to resist earthquake induced forces. In addition, it was proven that the proposed retrofitting method can be useful in improving the strength, stiffness, and energy dissipation capacities of bridge piers designed nonseismically. It is thus expected that the proposed method may provide an improved ductility capacity without sudden softening of strength for bridge piers excursing inelastic displacement range.

Most steel frame structures are constructed to one side without considering the arrangement of major-minor axis of column and bracing. This research presents more safety and economic efficiency can be obtained by just rearrangement of major-minor axis. Because most of steel-frame structures are excessively designed with Allowable Stress Design, and it needs to be changed to other specifications. The arrangement of major-minor axis of column is partly referred in AISC-LRFD, but still insufficient. This study compared with the each result from rearrangement of major-minor axis of column, arrangement of bracing, the connecting method of bracing, and consequence with different specifications. Moreover it demonstrated the direction of more economically optimized design.

This paper is a study about application of recently proposed Performance Based Mixture Design (PBMD) for design of high strength concrete (HSC) to obtain HSC mix proportion that satisfies required performances. The PBMD method which uses Satisfaction curve based on a Bayesian method is a performance oriented concrete mix proportion design procedure easily applicable to any condition and environment for a possible replacement to the current prescriptive design standards. Based on extensive experimental results obtained for various materials and performance parameters of HSC, the application feasibility of the developed PBMD procedure for HSC has been verified. Also, the proposed PBMD procedure has been used to perform application examples to obtain desired target performances of HSC with optimum concrete mixture proportions using locally available materials, local environmental conditions, and available concrete production technologies. The validity and precision of HSC mix proportion design obtained using the PBMD method is verified with the experimental and ACI presented results to check the feasibility for actual design usage.

본 논문은 관측기 기반 시스템에 대한 강인 디지털 재설계 방안을 제안한다. 디지털 재설계란, 기존의 안정화된 연속시간 플랜트와 이산 시간에서 설계된 디지털 제어기와의 상태 접합 및 안정도 분석을 통해 전체 시스템을 재구성 하는 것을 말한다. 그리고 전 역적 접근을 위한 방안으로서 문제를 볼록 최적화 관점으로 변환 후, 에러가 가질 수 있는 놈의 영역을 최소화 하여 상태 접합을 이루고자 하였다. 본 논문에서는 관측기 기반 시스템에 대한 디지털 재설계를 목표로 하되, 추가적인 파라미터 불확실성을 고려한 강인 디지털 재설계를 구성하게 된다. 파라미터 불확실성은 이산화 과정에서 구조적 형태가 변화하기 때문에, 이를 고려하여 주어진 식을 선형 행렬 부등식 형태로 나타내게 된다. 이 조건들을 통해 디지털 재설계의 상태 접합 및 안정도가 유도 가능하다는 것을 본 논문에서 증명하게 된다.

In general, the strength and stiffness of laminated composite cylindrical shells are very sensitive to the variation of slenderness parameters, some coupling-stiffness parameters, lamination angles, stacking sequence and number of layers. In this paper, the effects of these factors on the strength and buckling reliabilities of GFRP laminated cylindrical shells are investigated based on the proposed strength and buckling limit state models. As these factors have various and complicated effects on the strength and buckling reliabilities of GFRP laminated cylindrical shells, the results should be incorporated into the design formula such that optimum design technique and design code which provide uniform consistent reliability for balanced design in practice

Dynamic analyses were carried out to study the seismic response of high-rise steel moment-resisting frames in sixteen story buildings. The frames are intentionally designed by three different design procedures; strength controlled design. strong column-weak beam controlled design. and drift controlled design. The seismic performances of the so-designed frames with vertical mass irregularities were discussed in view of drift ratio. plastic hinge rotation, hysteretic energy input and stress demand. A demand curve of hysteretic energy inputs was also presented with two earthquake levels in peak ground accelerations for a future design application.

According to the Korean Building Code (KBC), the validity of the application of 800MPa grade steel(HSA800) to composite column should be verified by experimental or analytical method. Thus, stub column tests for encased and filled composite members with HSA800 steel were conducted, and axial strength and the validity of design compressive strength equations in KBC were evaluated. The test results show that the equation of the compressive strength of encased composite column member in KBC should be modified in order to use HSA800 steel without any reduction of specified minimum yield strength. For this purpose, it is suggested that the interval of hoop should be narrowed and the effective concrete area should be used. The equation of the compressive strength of filled composite column member in KBC is applicable to filled composite column with HSA800 steel without any modification.
