The flexural strength of composite HSB hybrid I-girders under positive moment is investigated by the moment-curvature analysis method to evaluate the applicability of the current AASHTO LRFD design specification to such girders. The hybrid girders are assumed to have the top flange and the web fabricated from HSB600 steel and the bottom flange made of HSB800 steel. More than 6,200-composite I-girder sections that satisfy the section proportion limits of AASHTOL RFD specifications are generatedby the random sampling technique to consider a statistically meaningful wide range of section properties. The flexural capacities of the sections are calculated by the nonlinear moment-curvature analysis in which the HSB600 and HSB800 steels are modeled as an elastoplastic, strain-hardening material and the concrete as CEB-FIP model. The effects of ductility ratio and compressive strength of concrete slab on the flexural strength of composite hybrid girders make of HSB steels are analyzed. Numerical results indicated that the current AASHTO-LRFD equation can be used to calculate the flexural strength of composite hybrid girders fabricated from HSB steel.

홍수터에 식재된 수목에 의한 운동량 교환은 흐름의 추가적인 흐름저항으로 작용한다. 따라서 수목으로 인한 통수능의 감소로 부분적인 유속 상승이 발생하기도 하지만, 전반적으로 평균유속이 감소하며 수위는 상승하게 된다. 실무적 사용목적으로 홍수터 수목의 저항은 통합 매개변수인 합성조도계수가 사용되고 있으나, 정량적인 조도계수의 추정은 매우 어려운 문제이다. 본 연구에서는 경험적으로 추정되는 비정량적 합성조도 계수의 한계를 극복하고, 실무적으로 사용이 용이하도록 수목에 의한 흐름저항 항을 분리한 1차원 상류이송 음해기법이 개발되었다. 개발된 기법의 평가를 위하여 균일한 단면에서 수행된 수리실험에 적용하였으며, 다양한 유량규모 및 식재조건에서 제안된 기법의 적용성 및 정확성을 확인하였다. 불규칙한 단면형상을 가진 실제 하천의 홍수터에 식재된 수목군의 경우를 가정하여 1/25 정상축척의 수리실험을 실시하였고, 100년 빈도 홍수량에서 수목식재 전후의 실측결과를 개발된 수치기법으로 계산하여 비교하였다. 개발된 기법은 모든 경우에서 사용자의 주관적인 판단 없이 정확하면서 안정적인 해를 제공하였으므로, 흐름의 2차원 효과가 상쇄될 수 있는 광폭의 자연하천에서 수목의 식재기준 분석을 위한 대안으로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

The design comparison and flexural reliability analysis of continuous span composite plate girder bridges are performed. The girders are designed by the methods of allowable stress design (ASD) and load and resistance factor design (LRFD). For the LRFD design, the design specification under development mainly by KBRC, based on AASHTO-LRFD specification in case of steel structures, is applied with the newly proposed design live load which has been developed by analyzing domestic traffic statistics from highways and local roads. For the ASD based design, the current KHBDC code with DB-24 and DL-24 live loads is used. The longest span length for the 3-span continuous bridges with span arrangement ratio of 4:5:4 is assumed to be from 30 m to 80 m. The amount of steel, performance ratios, and governing design factors for the sections designed by the ASD and LRFD methods are compared. In the reliability analysis for the flexural failure of the sections designed by two methods, the statistical properties on flexural resistance based on the yield strength statistics for over 16,000 domestic structural steel samples are applied.

Recently, most of the international design code for concrete structures are trying to develope performance-based design specification with the limit state concept. To accomplish this object, it is necessary to define required performance and to measure the performance level of structure. The reliability index is one of the most attractive indexes to express the level of performance. In this paper, prestressed concrete beam is designed following member resistance factor and material resistance factor format and the reliability indexes are obtained and compared for different sets of resistance factors. Compatible sets of safety factors could be calibrated for given level of target reliability index applying the similar method presented in this paper.

본 연구에서는 영국 환경청의 지원 하에 HR Wallingford에서 2003년에 개발한 Conveyance Estimation System(CES)을 이용하여 하천 조도계수를 산정해보고자 하였다. CES프로그램은 하천지형 정보인 단면 형상, 하상경사, 하상재료, 식생 상태 등의 정보를 바탕으로 임의 단면내 각 저항요인에 따라 프로그램에서 제시하고 있는 조도계수를 적용함으로써 수위변화에 따른 단면적, 유량, 통수능, 동수반경 등의 계산 결과를 제공한다. 이러한 계산 결과들을 Manning식에 대입함으로 써 유량 변화에 따른 조도계수를 산정할 수 있다. 섬진강 곡성 지점에 CES프로그램을 적용하여 계산된 조도계수를 실측 조도계수, 하천정비기본 계획에 제시된 조도계수와 비교하였다. 산정된 조도계수는 모두 유량 증가에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보이며, 약 $1,000m^3/s$이상의 고유량에서 실측자료를 이용하여 산정된 조도계수와 유사한 값에서 수렴하는 결과를 나타내고 있다. 섬진강 곡성지점 외에 추가 지점을 분석한 결과에서도 실측 조도계수와 CES를 이용한 조도계수가 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 따라서 CES프로그램을 이용하면 하천의 지형 정보만을 가지고도 조도계수, 수위-유량 관계식 등의 추정이 가능하기 때문에 실무적으로 유용하게 사용될 것이다.

Asphalt pavement tends to rut in high temperature and to crack in cold temperature. The performance of asphalt pavement can be deteriorated by korean weather condition which has the four distinct seasons. In this study, the typical sections that may minimize rutting and fatigue were analyzed through the numerical model tests. The layered elastic theory , finite element method and visco elastic theory were utilized for these numerical model tests. From the various numerical model tests, it is found that an optimum design procedure was recommended. It was increasing the thickness of asphalt stabilized base with fixing the wearing course as 5cm the minimum specified thickness. The section was most beneficial in resting rutting and fatigue. From the analysis of the relative index on tensile strain and cost analysis, it was recommended that the thickness ratio of subbase and asphalt concrete is 1.0$\sim$2.5.

In this paper, we proposed a numerical model based on moment-curvature, to evaluate the resistance of reinforced concrete (RC) members subjected to blast loading. To consider the direct shear failure mode, we introduced a dimensionless spring element based on the empirical direct shear stress-slip relation. Based on the dynamic increase factor equations for materials, new dynamic increase factor equations were constructed in terms of the curvature rate for the section which could be directly applied to the moment-curvature relation. Additionally, equivalent bending stiffness was introduced in the plastic hinge region to consider the effect of bond-slip. To verify the validity of the proposed model, a comparative study was conducted against the experimental results, and the superiority of this numerical model was confirmed through comparison with the analytical results of the single-degree of freedom model. Pressure-impulse (P-I) diagrams were produced to evaluate the resistance of members against bending failure and direct shear failure, and additional parametric studies were conducted.

This study develops the module to find the lateral stiffness influence matrix of each story and performs the displacement sensitivity analysis by virtual load method for the efficiency of optimal design using lateral stiffness influence matrix. Also, resizing technique based on the estimated lateral stiffness increment factors is developed to apply directly the results of optimal design. To this end, resizing technique is divided into the continuous and discrete section design methods. And then the relationships between section properties and section size are established. Specifically, an initial design under strength constraints is first performed, and then the lateral load resistant system is designed to control lateral displacements yet exceeding the drift criteria. Two types of 45-story three dimensional structures we presented to illustrate the features of the lateral drift control and resizing technique for tall buildings proposed in this study.

Tetrapod has been used as the armor blocks of most rubble mound breakwaters constructed in Korea. The Hudson formula has been widely used in the design of breakwater armor blocks in Korea. In the present study, we calculate the load and resistance partial safety factors of the Hudson formula for Tetrapod armors. The partial safety factors were calculated for the typical breakwater cross-sections of 12 trade harbors and 8 coastal harbors in Korea. The mean and standard deviation of them were also calculated. The mean values were compared with the partial safety factors of US Army (2006). The load and resistance factors are slightly smaller and larger, respectively, than the US Army values. However, the overall safety factors obtained by multiplying the load and resistance factors are close to the US Army values. The result of the present study could be used as the basic data to propose authorized partial safety factors in the future.

본 연구에서는 국내하천을 대상으로 하상재료에 따른 조도계수 변화를 분석하였다. 조도계수 분석은 수위, 유량, 하천 단면 등을 직접 측정하여 미지질조사국에서 개발한 ncalc모형을 이용하였고 하상재료 분석은 ISO4364, ISO9195 기준으로 실시하였다. 조사 대상하천은 총 17개 하천으로 거석, 호박돌, 자갈, 모래 등 다양한 하상재료 특성을 반영할 수 있는 지점으로 선정하였다. 하상 재료 크기 $D_{50}$을 기준으로 하여 모래 자갈 혼합 하천이라 할 수 있는 2mm${\sim}$32mm 구간, 자갈 하천인 32mm${\sim}$64mm 구간, 호박돌 하천인 64mm${\sim}$128mm, 거석 하천인 128mm 이상으로 구분하였다. 분석 결과 실측 자료를 이용하여 계산된 조도계수는 유량에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 고유량에서 0.04이하로 수렴하는 결과를 보였다. 이를 하상재료 크기에 따라 구분 지을 경우 입경이 커질수록 유량에 따른 변화 폭이 커지는 것으로 나타났다. 하상재료 입경의 크기가 64mm 이하인 하천의 경우 조도계수 변화 범위가 최대 0.02 로 나타난 반면 입경크기가 64mm이상인 하천에서는 최대 0.20 까지 나타나는 결과를 보였다. 조도계수는 일반적으로 수위 증가에 따라 흐름에 저항을 주는 요인들이 침수되면서 감소한다고 보고되었다. 하천의 하상재료 입경이 클 경우 저수위에서 하상재료에 의한 저항요인이 크게 발생되어 수면경사, 흐름 특성 등 조도계수에 영향을 주는 요인들이 생기는 것으로 판단된다.
