The cost for maintenance of bridge structures such as repair or reinforcement is increasing. In addition, the efforts for inspection of bridge structures is becoming more important since the proper repair or reinforcement should be performed to save the maintenance cost and ensure the safety for public infrastructure. Therefore, it is studied on this paper to estimate the repair or reinforcement cycles using probabilistic approach for the steel-box girders of bridge superstructure. In addition, a computer simulation program is uniquely developed based on probabilistic approach to calculate the cycles derived from the function of age of bridge and performance rating curve which were previously studied. In order to ensure the reliability of results and appropriateness of the model, statistical analyses were performed. Also, the results were compared and proved to be similar with ones from previous statistical data related to the repair or reinforcement cycles. The results from this study is expected to be useful for the determination of proper time to repair or reinforce the bridge structure and raise the safetyness of bridge structure in advance.

Repair and Reinforcement are subjected change to increasing of remodelling. The usage of carbon fiber sheets is increasing for the strengthening of reinforce concrete structures. Therefore experimental and analytical studies are carry out to investigate the flexural behaviors of the strengthened RC structures by the external bonding of the new reinforcement method. Also the aim of this study is to investigate reinforcing method of FRP panel deal with fatigue loading through experiments.

Purpose: In accordance with the increase in the number of buildings repaired and reinforced following deterioration from when a fire occurs in a previously reinforced building, the impact on the structure after the fire is analyzed to establish standards for repair and reinforcement measures. Method: After curing for 28 days, the process was to measure the compressive strength and induce destruction through a compressor, repair and reinforce it with epoxy, and conduct a re-compressive strength test on some specimens after curing for 3 days to understand the degree of strength restoration. The rest of the repaired and reinforced specimens as well as the unrepaired and unreinforced specimens were then put into an oven and heated according to the temporal and temperate conditions listed below, and then the compressive strength was tested to estimate the impact of fire. Result: After reinforcing the yielded specimen with epoxy, the process was to then put it in an oven and heat it at different temperatures over time. It was found that there was a decrease in the strength of the reinforcement more than that of the actual specimen. Conclusion: Based on this, it was found that a building repaired and reinforced with epoxy resin is actually more dangerous than a general unrepaired building when it is damaged by fire, and thus, that it must be prepared for fire vulnerabilities.

Steel materials, which are normally used in bridge structures, are prone to corrosion and have thin plate structures. Steel bridges that have been damaged through increased vehicle load and corrosion are frequently expected to be strengthened. Repair or strengthening methods generally include cutting, bolting, and welding. The basic characteristics of stress and deformation behavior generated by cutting and welding in the course of the repair work, however, are not yet understood. It is difficult to say whether the safety of the structure after welding conforms with existing safety evaluation methods.Therefore, to gain confidence in the material and to guarantee the safety of the structure after welding, the stress generated by heat, through welding and cutting, was generalized. The effect of additional loads with respect to stress generated by heat was also investigated.

본 논문에서는 최근 건축구조물의 보수보강에 사용되고 있는 복합재료보의 정확한 보강성능을 규명하기 위하여 다양한 실물 실험을 수행하였으며 실험 결과를 검토하여 실제 보강효과를 검증하였다. 콘크리트의 재료비선형을 고려할 수 있는 수치해석 기법으로 실험결과를 재현하여 보강효과를 수치해석적으로 검증하였으며 복합재료보를 이용하였을 경우 확보할 수 있는 보강효과에 대하여 연구하였다. 일반적인 철근콘크리트 구조물에 복합재료보를 이용하여 보강하였을 경우, 약 80% 내외의 하중 증가효과를 확보할 수 있었다. 또한 수치해석을 통하여 보강효과를 검토한 결과, 실물실험과 유사한 결과를 얻을 수 있었으며 복합재료보의 시공시 사용되는 전단연결재의 효과를 고려한다면 거의 동일한 결과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 현재까지의 연구결과, 복합재료보를 이용하여 구조물을 보강한 경우, 취성이 증가하는 것으로 알려져있으나 추가적인 연구를 통하여 연성을 확보할 수 있는 복합재료보의 연구개발이 가능할 것으로 예상된다.

As a typical construction material, concrete has been used in building all kinds of structures since the late $19^{th}$ century. Although it was recognized to secure durability as long as the regulations on design and construction have been reasonably complied, the trends of life-shortening and deterioration have frequently occurred due to all kinds of the external effects that have been experienced during the procedures of using the structures. To make matters even worse, deterioration of the concrete structures according to deterioration can not be controlled any more. Finally, the reality is that repair and maintenance are necessary in the maintenance aspect of the concrete structure. In this study, CRM(Chemical Resistance of Laminating Reinforcement Method), which had been developed to reinforce the surface of concrete and specially improve chemical resistance performance, has been applied to enhance the existing repairing and maintenance method. Therefore, the result has been drawn with comparison and analysis of the specimens applied with the general repairing and maintenance method and CRM through a variety of durability test in this study. With the result of the test, durability of the specimen applied with CRM has been more improved than the existing repairing and maintenance method, which is judged as because of the laminating effect due to reinforcement of epoxy impregnated of alkali-resistance fiber and double layered fiber reinforced seat.

철근콘크리트 구조물이 과소설계되어 있거나 과다 하중이 작용하게 되면 그 구조물의 구조성능을 파악하여 보수.보강을 시행하게 된다. 최근에 가장 맣이 사용되는 보수.보강 재료로는 특히 휨내력을 보강하는데 탄소섬유를 들 수 있다. 탄소섬유쉬트는 내열성과 내호염성에 있어서 회재가 발생할 경우 보강재료로서 충분한 성능을 가지고 있다. 그러나 이를 접착시키는데 사용되는 에폭시는 유기계 물질로서 화재시 유독가스가 발생하고 내열성능도 30$0^{\circ}C$정도에도 지탱하기 어려워 화재 발생이 가능한 구조물에 사용하기 어렵다. 이 연구에서는 무기계 폴리머 복합재료로 접착된 탄소섬유를 고온(약 800~100$0^{\circ}C$, 1시간)으로 가열한 후 가열된 섬유판의 인장, 휨 전단내력을 검토하여 내열성능을 파악하고 이 섬유쉬트로 보강한 철근콘크리트 부재의 휨 성능을 실험적으로 규명하여 화재의 위험이 있는 구조물에 구조적인 보강재료로 사용이 가능한가를 검토하였다. 연구 결과, 개발된 무기계 폴리머 복합체는 인장강도, 휨강도 및 접착강도가 유기계 접착제와 유사하게 나타났고 800~100$0^{\circ}C$ 정도로 1시간 가열한 이후에도 상온 시험체 휨내력과 전단내력의 63%, 33% 정도를 유지하여 화재의 위험이 있는 부위에도 사용이 가능한 것으로 판단되었다.
