본연구는 축방향 변형 구속이 고강도 콘크리트 휨부재의 휨 전단거동에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위한 것으로, 수화열과 건조수축에 기인하는 축방향 변형과 재하에 의한 축방향 변형을 구속한 부재 및 무구속 부재에 대하여 휨파괴와 전단파괴 실험을 실시하였다. 타설 직후부터 축변형을 구속한 실험체의 재하시 강성은 재하전의 구속으로 발생한 관통균열의 영향을 받아 무구속 실험체의 강성보다 낮지만, 재하시의 축변형 구속에 따른 압축구속력의 상승으로 인하여 강성의 크기는 역전되었다 축변형이 완전히 구속된 휨부재의 휨강도는 무구속 부재보다 20%이상 상승하지만 변형능력은 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며, 재하전의 축변형 구속에 의한 관통균열(균열폭 0.1mm 미만)은 부재의 전단내력 및 전단균열 진전 형상에 영향을 미치지 않았다.

최근 세계적인 지진의 발생과 함께 구조물의 내진성능 평가 및 증진 방법에 대하여 많은 연구가 진행 되고 있다. 특히 교량 구조물의 교각의 경우에는 상부구조의 고정하중 및 활하중을 지반에 전달하여 주는 역할을 하기 때문에, 역으로 지진이 발생하였을 경우 교각의 내진성능에 따라서 교량의 안전도에 많은 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 또한 산악지역이 국토의 70%이상을 차지하는 우리나라의 지형적인 특성상 고교각을 이용한 장대교량의 건설이 필요하며 도시지역의 교통량 증가로 인한 도시고속도로의 건설 등 고가교의 필요성이 점차 증가하고 있다. 그러나 CFT(Concrete Filled Tube)부재의 경우에는 콘크리트가 3축 구속 상태로 존재하지만 자중이 크며 내진 성능이 떨어지는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위하여 CFT부재의 단면을 중공으로 만듦으로써 부재를 경량화하고 내부 튜브를 삽입하여 내부를 구속 시킨 내부 구속 중공 CFT 부재(Internally Confined Hollow CFT Member, ICH CFT)가 개발되었다. 이는 콘크리트가 내 외부 튜브에 의하여 구속되어 3축 구속 상태로 존재함으로써 콘크리트 중공부로의 취성파괴를 방지하여 연성도 및 강도를 향상시켜주며, 단면의 감소로 인해 재료비를 절감 할 뿐 아니라 자중 감소로 인해 내진 설계에도 유리하다. 현재 내부 구속 중공 CFT 부재에 대한 연구가 많이 진행되고 있지만, 튜브를 삽입함으로써 부재의 중공부로 발생하는 구속력의 특성을 해석적으로 정립한 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 압축을 받는 중공 CFT 부재에 내부 튜브를 삽입함으로써 발생하는 콘크리트의 구속력을 해석적 연구를 통하여 수행하였으며, 구속력을 파악하기 위한 평가 방법으로는 구속 콘크리트의 중공비와 직경, 외부튜브의 두께, 내부튜브의 두께 등으로 평가하였다. 해석적 연구 결과, 내부 튜브를 삽입함으로써 발생되는 외부 구속력은 이론적 수식에 의한 구속 응력값과 비슷한 값을 가지지만 내부로 발생하는 구속력은 이론적 수식에 의한 구속 응력값에 도달하지 못하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

There is a growing range of applications for concrete-filled steel tube (CFT) member because of its superior performance. But a CFT member may be uneconomical or has weight problems because it is fully filled with concrete. In this study, a new type of member, called internally confined hollow (ICH) CFT member, was developed to solve the high cost and weight problems of the CFT member. To determine stress-strain model of the concrete in an ICH CFT column, possible failure modes of an ICH CFT column were suggested and confining pressure was derived from equilibriums for each failure mode. From the derived equations, a computer program was coded and parametric studies were performed for some examples. Analytical results showed that internally confined concrete has enhanced strength and ductility compared with those of unconfined or biaxially confined concrete.

The fragility curves of seismic retrofitted bridges by steel jacketing at bridge columns and restrainers at expansion joints after the 1994 Northridge earthquake are developed. Fragility curves are represented by lognormal distribution functions with two parameters (median and log-standard deviation) and developed as a function of peak ground acceleration(PGA). Two parameters in the lognormal distribution are estimated by the maximum likelihood method. The sixty ground acceleration time histories for Los Angeles area developed for FEMA SAC project are used for the dynamic analysis of bridges. The comparison of fragility curves of the bridges before and after column retrofit demonstrates that the improvement of the bridges with steel jacketing on the seismic performance is excellent for the damage states defined in this study. The comparison of fragility curves of the bridges before and after the installation of restrainers at expansion joints also shows the improvement in the seismic performance of restrained bridges for the severe damage state.

Concrete filled steel tube and concrete encased steel tube columns are expected to have confined effects of concrete by steel and reinforced effects of local buckling by concrete. On the basis of confined state concrete models of previous researches, stress-strain and load-displacement relations of RC, CFT and CET columns are analyzed by steel ratio. After comparing analysis results with experimental results, Modified stress-strain relations are derived through evaluation the influence upon confined effects of concrete in each cases. Also, the modified stress-strain models are carried out to be compared with specified strength of various countries.

In this paper, a stress-strain model for high-strength confined concrete is proposed using compressive fracture energy. In the compression test performed by author in Reference [6], an acrylic bar with strain gauges was embedded in the center of the specimen to measure the local strain distribution. It was found from the test that the local strain measurement by this acrylic rod is very effective. The local fracture zone length was defined based on the local strain distribution measured by the acrylic rod. Specifically, it was defined as the length where the local strain increases more than twice of the strain corresponding to maximum stress. In addition, the stress-strain relationship of confined concrete with compressive fracture energy is proposed on the assumption that the amount of energy absorbed by the compressive members subjected to the given lateral confining pressure is constant regardless of the aspect ratio and size. The proposed model predicts even results from other researchers accurately.

Concrete-filled steel tube columns are expected to have confined effects of the steel on the concrete and reinforced local buckling effects of the concrete. After comparing the results of existing studies with the experimental results from this study, the stress-strain relations were modified by evaluating the load-displacement with consideration of the confined effects. The effects of the parameters on the load-displacement and moment-curvature relationship according to the sectional and material properties were analyzed.

It is difficult to predict the early-age cracks of strain restrained concrete members due to environmentally sensitive parameters. A new method is proposed to predict the cracks by test of autogenous deformation and self-induced restrained stress of specimens which simulates early-age crack state by hydration heat of the'Wall-On-Foundation'members. For this purpose, thermal analysis of entire structure considering the environmental condition is performed at first, and the specimens are set up where hydration heat was electronically controlled according to the analysis results. By measuring free deformation and force to compensate the autogenous strain including relaxation, feasibility of cracks can be estimated. The proposed method can predict the occurrence of cracks better than the material test of the early age concrete which has large variance. The method of this study is particularly useful when it is used as a preliminary experiments to predict the crack more precisely before full-scale concrete placement in construction of large structures.

Experiments for circular unreinforced concrete beams confined by carbon fiber tubes (CFT) made of carbon fiber sheets were performed. Selected test parameter was thickness of carbon fiber tube: 1.5mm (3 layers), 2.0mm (4 layers), 2.5mm (5 layers), and 3.0mm (6 layers). Based on the test results, an equation for estimating moment capacity of the circular beams confined by carbon fiber tubes was proposed. Comparison results showed good agreement up to 2.5mm (5 sheets) of the CFT thickness.

When the columns of existing RC structures are repaired with FRP composites, the core concrete of the columns is confined by both materials of steel spirals (or steel hoops) and FRP composites because the FRP composites wrap the existing columns which have been already confined with steel spirals or hoops. As the stress-strain curves of steel and fiber are different to each other, the behavior of concrete columns confined with both steel spiral and FRP composites is also different to that of concrete columns confined with only steel spiral or FRP composites. Twenty four RC cylinders were tested in order to observe the behavior of RC cylinders confined with both materials. The observed results of the test showed that the behavior of the test cylinders confined with both materials was quite different to that of cylinders confined with only one material.
