In this study, the nonlinear time history analysis of seismic retrofitted structures with TS damper for seven ground motion records was conducted for the purpose of verifying the seismic strengthening effect of TS seismic retrofitting method. Through comparison of the interstory drift ratio and the energy dissipation amount of the non - reinforced structure obtained and those of retrofitted structures with TS damper from the nonlinear time history analysis, the interstory drift ratio was reduced by about 30% and the amount of energy dissipation through the structure was halved. As a result, it was confirmed that the damping performance of the TS seismic retrofitting method is excellent.

Aging and severe environments are major causes of damage in reinforced concrete (RC) structures such as buildings and bridges. Deterioration such as concrete cracks, corrosion of steel, and deformation of structural members can significantly degrade the structural performance and safety. Therefore, effective and easy-to-use methods are desired for repairing and strengthening such concrete structures. Various methods for strengthening and rehabilitation of RC structures have been developed in the past several decades. Recently, FRP composite materials have emerged as a cost-effective alternative to the conventional materials for repairing, strengthening, and retrofitting deteriorating/deficient concrete structures, by externally bonding FRP laminates to concrete structural members. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) in predicting behavior of circular type concrete column retrofitted with FRP. To construct training and testing dataset, experiment results for the specimens which have different retrofit profile are used. Retrofit ratio, strength of existing concrete, thickness, number of layer, stiffness, ultimate strength of fiber and size of specimens are selected as input parameters to predict strength, strain, and stiffness of post-yielding modulus. These proposed ANFIS models show reliable increased accuracy in predicting constitutive properties of concrete retrofitted by FRP, compared to the constitutive models suggested by other researchers.

Recently, research about Near-Surface-Mounted Rertofit (NSMR) method has been being widely performed as a method for retrofit of RC structure using FRP. This method requires additional work to make grooves during retrofit but makes it possible to improve retrofit effect and reduce the attack by environment. In this paper, the retrofit effect of NSMR method, especially the method using FRP plate instead of bar is investigated through experiment. Six RC beams were made and retrofitted using by FRP plate following the planned methods; Surface-Bonding Retrofit (SBR), NSMR without debonding region and NSMR with debonding region. Flexural capacity of all specimens was evaluated by beam test with simple support condition. As a result, NSMR method with FRP plate had more improved structural capacity than SBR method. The calculation process of ACI 440-2R can be used to predict the member retrofitted by NSMR with FRP plate with consideration on the three anchorage failure mechanism.

This study is to investigate the flexural performance of Near Surface Mounted (NSM) strengthening method using Fiber reinforced Polymer (FRP) materials to concrete structures. For this study, the inverse-shaped trapezoid CFRP composite material which has been registered as New Excellent Technology (NET) 351 was adopted to the concrete structure. In this study, two types of the CFRP types were considered; Type A ($15{\times}13{\times}6mm$) and Type B ($4{\times}3{\times}10mm$) with different strengthening ratio. In the result of the test, it was proved that NSM strengthened specimens had more flexural performance of 20-100% than that of the unstrengthened specimen. With this test result, the structural efficiency was investigated based on the coefficient of ductility and coefficient of crack resistance.

The deteriorated PSC Beam bridge is necessary improved reinforcement method. In the study, it is proposed the box reinforcing method which could make the stiffness of the PSC Beam bridges increase more stably through the secondary composition effect of open type PSC Beam bridge's girder which is converted into the consolidation box type and the half panel is formed between the lower flange of the PSC Beam about the deteriorated PSC Beam bridge suffering the capacity decline. In case the proposed reinforcement method combine with the existed external prestressed method, the close analysis depending on the time is conducted by the construction stage because of searching the effect of reinforcement quantitatively. The reinforcement method of the box type which is proposed an efficiency improvement in objective in application case, by a reinforcement method after proposing the whole and bend sectional reinforcement method, against a each reinforcement method evaluated the upward camber which it follows in secondary composite effect and a member stress characteristics. Also, the structural safety of PSC Beam bridge is evaluated quantitatively by examining of rating factor through load carrying capacity evaluation.

The tensile and bond performance of GFRP rebar are different from those of conventional steel reinforcement. It requires some studies on concrete members reinforced with GFRP reinforcing bars to apply it to concrete structures. GFRP has some advantages such as high specific strength, low weight, non-corrosive nature, and disadvantage of larger deflection due to the lower modulus of elasticity than that of steel. Bridge deck is a preferred structure to apply FRP rebars due to the increase of flexural capacity by arching action. This paper focuses on the behavior of concrete bridge deck reinforced with newly developed GFRP rebars. A total of three real size bridge deck specimens were made and tested. Main variables are the type of reinforcing bar and reinforcement ratio. Static test was performed with the load of DB-24 level until failure. Test results were compared and analyzed with ultimate load, deflection behavior, crack pattern and width.

Development of underground space is actively performed globally for better life in the surface, and the scale of the space is increasing. Extreme care should be taken in the construction of the underground space in urban areas in order to avoid damage of adjacent structures and interference with existing underground space. In case of shallow tunnels, reinforcement of ground and structures is necessary to minimize the damage to structures due to excavation but any standard for optimum range of the reinforcement has not been established yet. In this paper, a series of numerical analyses have been performed for a 20 m diameter tunnel excavated underneath a structure to investigate the degree of damage of the structure according to vertical and horizontal spacing between the tunnel and structure. In addition to that, optimum range of reinforcement is presented for each case where reinforcement is required. It has been observed that the reinforcement is necessary for the ground condition adapted in the analyses as follows: (1) if horizontal spacing ($S_{H}$) approaches to 0D (D: equivalent diameter of tunnel) for vertical spacing (Sv) of 0.5D, and (2) if tunnel exists underneath the structure for vertical spacing (Sv) of 0.75D. The reinforcement is not necessary for Sv of 10 regardless of $S_{H}$. It also has been obtained that the optimum ranges of the reinforcement around structure foundation are 7 m in depth and whole width of the structure and 5 m beyond tunnel sidewall. These reinforcememt ranges have been confirmed to be enough for stability of the structure if types of reinforcement method is appropriately selected.
