This paper presents compression capacity of transfer system in pilotis subjected to axial load. Recently, transfer system is usually used in low floors of wall-typed apartments when members' sections are suddenly changed between upper walls and bottom columns. It can help transfer loads from the walls to the columns. Especially, a transfer girder system is usually used as one of transfer systems applied to a pilotis. However, the transfer girder system has low constructability and economics. Therefore, the other transfer system with transfer slab was suggested and has been studied. In this paper, to evaluate the compression capacity of transfer slab, tests were conducted on pilotis transfer slab systems subjected to axial load. First of all, two specimens were determined by FEM. The main parameter is length of the bottom columns. The lengh of the bottom columns were 40% and 50% of length of upper walls in the tranfer slab specimens. Results showed that the compression capacity of piloti transfer systems subjected to axial load was affected by length of bottom columns. The compression capacity is 52% higher than design strength for specimen with the bottom column's length of 40% of length of the upper wall and 46% for specimen with the bottom column's length of 50% of length of the upper wall.

A numerical study, using the molecular dynamics simulation method, was carried out to investigate the wetting characteristics of water droplets on a solid square pillar surface with variable periodic edge length patterns at the nanoscale. In this study, the pillar plane was supposed to be rectangular or square shaped. In addition, the surface area was increased while the shape of the pillar plane was kept fixed. In the case of the square pillar, the edge length increased from $4.24{\AA}$ to $12.72{\AA}$. Also, the rectangular pillar had two types of length edges. In this case, one edge length was fixed at $8.48{\AA}$ and the other edge length was increased from $4.24{\AA}$ to $12.72{\AA}$. Through these length changes, the hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity of a water droplet on the variable pillar surfaces were analyzed.

In this paper, the 1/5 scale models of the reinforced concrete colunms were designed and fabricated. The influence of the number of blasting holes on the exposed length of steel bars and vertical load was investigated. The relation between the length of steel bar and the number of blasting holes was examined by performing the blast tests considering the vertical load on the scaled reinforced concrete columns. Weight of scaled column models by blasting and that of exposed was compared with the number of blasting holes. Finally, based on the exposed length of steel bars and vertical load, the number of blasting holes were calculated. Results shows that the number of blasting holes calculated in this study are suitable for scaled structure models test by blasting demolition.

The small height to depth ratio column dominated by shear after tension steel yielded and the energy dissipation capacity reduce remarkably due to the affection of axial force. This procedure incur in the plastic hinge region and not in all of the region at the same time but from somewhere where the energy was concentrated. This study was reported about the variation of length of the plastic hinge under cyclic loading of the RC columns through the test.

본 논문에서는 BIM(Building Information Modeling)의 핵심기술인 파라메트릭 기술을 기반으로 하여 철근콘크리트 구조물의 기둥부재 주철근 자동배근시스템을 구축함으로써 기존 프로그램에서 사용자가 직접 입력해야하는 변수의 수를 최소화하고 사용성과 정확성을 높이는 것을 목적으로 한다. 기존 철근배근 형상 자동 모델링에서 기둥철근의 자동 모델링은 기둥단면이 변하는 부분에서의 철근 배근과 정착 및 이음길이를 고려하지 않고 있다. 만약 고려하더라도 이용자가 직접 입력하는 방식이기 때문에 규모가 큰 건물일 경우 방대한 정보의 처리 미숙으로 인해 정확한 모델링을 기대하기 어려운 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 기둥 부재에 대하여 대상 건물을 선정하고 구조해석 모델링을 구축한 후 구조해석 결과 데이터베이스를 추출하여 얻은 정보와 건축구조설계기준에 따른 정착 및 이음 길이 산정에 관한 알고리즘을 구축하여 철근배근 형상 자동화 모듈에 적용하여 배근 자동 설계 및 자동 형상화 모듈을 생성하였다.

This study deals with the static and dynamic stability analyses of simple tapered columns with constant volume. The crosssections of column taper are the regular polygons whose depths are varied with the parabolic functional fashion. The hingedhinged end constraint is chosen as the boundary condition of the column. The non-dimensional ordinary differential equation governing free vibrations of such column subjected to an axial load is derived and solved numerically. From numerical results, the relationships between natural frequencies and section ratios are obtained, from which the configurations of dynamic optimal shapes of columns and the strongest columns are extracted.

The reinforced concrete members are designed to fail in flexural to lead ductile fracture. In the building structures, the failure is typically imposed on beams to prevent damages in columns. However, progression of plastic collapse mechanism may ultimately develop, a plastic hinge at the bottem end of the first floor column, which then can be subjected to shear or bond finally due to large axial force and small shear span-to-depth ratio. In this study, 10 RC column specimens failed in shear after flexural yielding was investigated to determine the factors affecting the plastic hinge length. The findings of this study showed that the most effective factor affecting the plastic hinge length was an axial force. As an axial force increase, an axial strain and a ductility ratio were decreased obviously. The test also shows the observed plastic hinge length was about 0.8~1.2d and the this result has difference compared with forward research.

The parameter study of buckling behavior of steel built-up column under compression force is presented in this study. The shear deformation effects due to the bending moment and shear forces are considered for the H-shaped main members along the entire built-up column and batten member connecting double H-shaped main members. The parametric study is performed according to the length of the built-up column, the distance of the H-shaped main members and the number and type of cover plate for battens, respectively. The applicability of AISC design specification of normal and high tension bolted built-up column is investigated. The buckling loads for built-up columns are compared with those obtained from the analytic solution developed in this study, AISC specification, and finite element method based on the beam and plate element, respectively.

Characteristics analysis and species identification of post were carried out in four old traditional wooden frame houses in Cheongdo-gun. The diameter and height of post, and distance between posts are related with each other. It was considered that the traditional wooden frame houses were constructed according to the diameter and height of post as a basic dimension in distance between posts. Of the wood member samples obtained in the site, softwoods in three old houses and hardwoods in one old house were separated through light microscopy. The hardwoods were found to be Castanea crenata. and softwoods were all identified as Pinus densiflora.
