This research studies the behavior of the FRP-concrete interface subjected to two environmental substances. Frist is to investigate the behavior by the application of different bonding materials at the interface between FRP and concrete, second is to understand a long-term performance at the interface by Freeze-thaw actions. The parameters considered in this research are the maximum bonding strength and the effective bonding length at the FRP-concrete interface. In the first experimental phase, three types of specimens are fabricated and tested considering the number of applied bonding materials and the Freeze-thaw tests are performed to evaluate the behavior of the interface in the cycle range of 0 to 300 cycles. Finally, it is known that there is a 5~7% difference of the effective bonding length between applied bonding materials and the values for the maximum stress and the effective length under Freeze-thaw action are varied randomly as the freeze-thaw cycle is increased even though initial reduction of their capacities are occurred.

External bonding of carbon fiber reinforced plastic sheets has recently emerged as a popular method for strengthening reinforced concrete structures. The behavior of CFRP-strengthened RC structure is often controlled by the behavior of the interface between CFRP sheets and concrete. In this study, a review of models on bond strength, bond-slip, and interfacial stresses has been first carried out. Then a new bond-slip model is proposed. The proposed bond-slip model has bilinear ascending regions and exponential descending region derived from modifications mode on the conventional bilinear bond-slip model. The comparison of the results with those of existing experiment researches on bond-slip models indicate good agreements.

일반적으로 콘크리트와 철근간의 경계면을 나타내는 유한요소법에는 균열의 부근에서 발생하는 부착열화 현상을 고려하지 않고 있다. 이것은 균열 부근에서 과도한 부착을 초래하고 , 국소 변형과 균열의 진전에도 영향을 준다. 본 연구에서는 철근콘크리트 구조물의 균열부근에서 일어나는 부착거동의 변화를 고려한 비선형 부착응력-미끄럼 모델을 제안하였다. 철근과 콘크리트간의 경계면에는 링크요소를 이용하였고, 링크의 특성은 철근을 가로지르는 균열의 상태에 따라 변하도록 조정하였다. 균열의 형성상태를 정량화하고, 부착거동을 두 포락선 1) 균열로부터 충분히 떨어진 위치에서의 부착상태를 모델링한 외연포락선, 2)횡균열면에 있어서의 부착상태를 모델링한 내연포락선의 사이에 변이시키기 위하여 비국소적 손상도 개념을 도입하였다. 이 방법의 유효성을 알아보기 위하여 편재하중을 받는 T형 교각의 실험 및 해석결과를 제시하였다. 제안된 모델의 결과를 실험결과와 비교하여 본 모델의 유용성을 검증하였다.

경계면 요소를 이용하여 철근콘크리트 구조물의 접촉면 문제를 유한 요소법으로 해석하는 기법에 대하여 연구한다. 본 연구에서는 경계면 요소의 수치해석의 이론과정을 전개하고, 실험 관찰된 부착 시험체에 적용하여 이형철근과 콘크리트 부착기구의 접촉면을 해석한다. 경계면은 특별한 연결요소를 이용하여 재현하며 Mohr-Coulomb의 마찰 이론을 응응한다. 해석의 주요점으로 하중상태에 따라 변화되는 경계면의 접촉상태, 즉 고정(stick), 미끄러짐(slide), 분리(separation)를 묘사하여 경계면 재료의 비선형 거동을 관찰한다. 부착모델의 해석결과는 실험실의 결과와 대체로 일치되며 따라서 철근콘크리트 접촉면의 응력해석을 위해 경계면 요소가 활용될 수 있음을 보여준다.

This paper studies the lateral response of reinforced concrete columns strengthened with carbon fiber reinforced polymer sheet (CFRP) subjected to static loading analytically by comparing with experimental results. For interface behavior between RC columns and CFRP, and interface element in FEM was applied and verified its performance by analyzing lateral behavior of RC columns strengthened with CFRP. The comparison shows that the proposed analytical method is effective for nonlinear analysis of RC columns strengthened CFRP.

External bonding of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets has been widely accepted as a popular method for strengthening of deteriorated RC structures. The long-term behavior of CFRP-strengthened RC structure is often affected by that of the interface between CFRP sheets and concrete. This study aims at applying a viscoelastic model to describe the creep behaviour of the adhesive layer bonding CFRP sheet to concrete, the CFRP-concrete interface. Reviews of available models on concrete creep behavior have been first carried out and then new FE analysis model is proposed. The proposed FE analysis model based on the maxwell model has been verified by previous experimental results. It is shown that the creep effect of interfacial adhesive layer is very important on the long-term behavior of concrete structures strengthened with CFRP.

In this study, an analysis technique of hybrid girder considering nonlinearity of steel-concrete contact surface is presented. Steel-concrete hybrid girder shows partial-interaction behavior due to the deformation of shear connectors, slip and detachment at the interface, and cracks under the applied loads. Therefore, the partial-interaction approach becomes more reasonable. Contact surface is modeled by interface element and analyzed nonlinearly because of cost of time and effort to detailed model and analysis. Steel and Concrete are modeled considering non-linearity of materials. Material property of contact surface is obtained from push-out test and input to interface element. For the constitutive models, Drucker-Prager and smeared cracking model are used for concrete in compression and tension, respectively, and a von-Mises model is used for steel. This analysis technique is verified by comparing it with test results. Using verified analysis technique, various analyses are performed with different parameters such as nonlinear material property of interface element and prestress. The results are compared with linear analysis result and analysis result with the assumption of full-interaction.

Carbon fiber sheet has been used to rehabilitate many types of reinforced concrete members with its superior characteristics such as their lightweight, high strength, corrosion resistance, and easy execution. But the failure behavior of reinforced concrete members show a high variation by the bond characteristics between carbon fiber sheet and concrete surface. In this study, a bond stress-slip model, which accounts for changes in bonding behavior between concrete and carbon fiber sheet with some link elements, is proposed. The link elements are used to represent the concrete-carbon fiber sheet interface. To investigate the efficiency of this method, the analytical solutions for the behavior of reinforced concrete beam strengthened with carbon fiber sheet are compared with experimental ones. Results from the proposed model comparatively well agree with the experimental results.

This paper deals with the experimental analysis of the flexural behaviour of encased composite beams with hollow core slabs and channels. The shear force between steel beams and hollow core slabs are transferred by channels. Three full-scale specimens were constructed and tested with different steel beam heights, which were compared with those of previous studies. Based on observation of the experiments, the encased composite beams exhibited full shear connection behaviour without any other shear connectors due to their inherent mechanical and chemical bond stress. Experimental results show a behaviour similar to steel-concrete composite beams with classical connectors: elastic and yield domains, great ductility, flexural failure mode (plastic hinge), low relative movement at steel-concrete interface and all specimens failed in a very ductile manner. Consequently, this study enables the validation of the proposed connection device under static loading and shows that it meets modern structural requirements.
