Recently, a high strength concrete of more than 40 MPa has been increasingly used in practice. However, use of the high strength concrete may influence on design parameters, particularly stress distribution. This is very true since the current everyday practice employs equivalent rectangular stress distribution that is derived from normal strength concrete. Subsequently, the stress distribution seems to be reevaluated and then a new distribution with new parameters needs to be suggested for the high strength concrete. For this purpose, linear and multiple regression analyses have been carried out in term of using experimental data for the high strength concrete of 40 to 80 MPa available in literatures. Accordingly, new parameters associated with the stress distribution have been proposed and employed for the design of flexural and compressive members. Comparative design examples indicate that designs with new parameters reduce section dimensions compared to those with the current code parameters for concrete strengths of 40 to 70 MPa. In particular, for compressive members, design with new parameters exhibit conservative compressive force compared to those with the current code parameters.

본 연구에서는 콘크리트 강도에 미치는 양생온도의 영향이 양생시점에 따라 어떻게 변하는지에 대한 실험과 기존의 모델식을 이용하여 분석을 수행하였으며, 양생시점의 영향을 고려한 수정된 등가재령식을 제시함으로써 새로운 강도예측식을 개발하기 위한 기초연구이다. 이를 위해 2종류의 물.시멘트비에 대하여 각각 11종류의 양생이력을 고려한 실험을 수행하였다. 실험변수로는 3종류의 양생온도 (5 $^{\circ}C$, 20 $^{\circ}C$, 4$0^{\circ}C$)와 4종류의 양생시점(0~1일. 1~2, 2~3, 6~7일)을 선정하였다. 또 기존의 Saul 및 Arrhenius 모델식을 이용하여 실험결과를 분석하여 양생시점의 영향을 도입한 각각 수정된 등가재령식을 제시하였다. 실험결과에서 초기재령에서 고온 양생한 경우에는 초기에는 높은 강도를 나타내지만 재령이 증가할수록 오히려 낮은 강도를 나타내었다. 또 초기에 저온으로 양생한 콘크리트는 그 반대의 경향을 보였다. 기존의 등가재령식에서는 같은 등가재령에서도 압축강도는 양생시점에 따라 달라짐을 알 수 있었다. 기존의 모델식은 특히 초기재령에서의 강도예측결과가 실험결과와 잘 맞지 않았으나 이 논문에서 제시된 수정된 등가재령식은 실험결과와 잘 일치하는 결과를 보여 주었다.

Effects of crushed coal bottom ash (CBA) with maximum size of 1 mm on the properties of mortar with various water-to-binder ratios (w/b) were evaluated. The present work is a fundamental study to establish a method of mix proportion design for mortar and concrete with CBA. The workability, air contents, and compressive strength of mortar were measured. Efficiency of CBA on the compressive strength at 28 days, which was adopted for mix proportion design, was evaluated based on concepts of 'equivalent strength' in CEN/TR 16637. It was found that the CBA could be contributed as a binder in mortar in some cases, while in other cases act as at aggregates. The efficiency of CBA was influenced by types of CBA and their replacement ratio, and w/b of mortar.

The cold-formed steel stud, which has been used as a load-bearing member of wall panels for steel houses, poses a significant problem in insulation due to heat bridging of the web. Therefore, some additional thermal insulating materials are required. In order to solve this problem, the cold-formed steel thermal stud with slits in the web was developed. However, estimating the structural strength of thermal studs is very difficult because of the arrangement of perforations. In this paper, an analytical and experimental research on thermal studs is described. Three types of studs with different length, pitch and arrangement of slits were tested to failure. A simple design approach was proposed based on the test results. The proposed method adopted the direct strength method, based on the elastic local and distortional buckling stress of plain studs with equivalent thickness in the web instead of thermal studs. The predictions using the proposed method were compared with test results for verification and the adequacy of the proposed method was confirmed.

본 연구에서는 기존 지중열교환기용 뒤채움재인 벤토나이트 그라우트의 대안으로 시멘트 그라우트의 물리적 역학적 특성을 평가하였다. 실내 시험을 통하여 시멘트 그라우트의 배합비 및 첨가재에 따라 열전도도와 유동성, 일축압축강도에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 또한, 실제 지중열교환기용 파이프 내 순환유체의 온도변화가 시멘트 그라우트의 재료적 안정성에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위해 $-5^{\circ}C$와 $50^{\circ}C$를 한 주기로 하여 일축압축강도를 반복적으로 측정하였다. 냉난방 운전에 따른 시멘트 그라우트와 순환 파이프 접촉면의 양호한 부착성 유지 여부를 판단하기 위해 시멘트 그라우트에 HDPE 파이프를 삽입한 시료의 등가 투수계수를 Flexible wall permeameter를 이용하여 장기간 측정하였다. 순환유체의 온도변화 모사에 따른 일축압축강도는 주기가 반복될수록 강도가 감소하는 경향이 나타났다. HDPE파이프를 삽입한 시료의 등가 투수계수는 순환수의 온도에 따라 증감하다가 $1.02{\times}10^{-9}cm/sec$로 수렴하였다.

The current Concrete Structural Design Code (2007) prescribe the equivalent rectangular stress block of the ACI 318 Building Code as concrete compressive stress distribution for design of concrete structures. The rectangular stress block may be enough for flexural strength calculation, but realistic stress-strain relationship is required for performance verification at selected limit state in performance-based design. Moreover, the ACI rectangular stress block provides non-conservative flexural strength for high strength concrete columns. Therefore a new stress distribution model is required for development of performance-based design code. This paper proposes a concrete compressive stress-strain distribution model for design and performance verification. The proposed model has a parabolic-rectangular shape, which is adopted by Eurocode 2 and Japanese Code (JSCE). It was developed by investigation of experimental test results conducted by the authors and other researchers. The test results cover high strength concrete as well as normal strength concrete. The stress distribution parameters of the proposed models are compared to those of the ACI 318 Building Code, Eurocode 2, Japanese Code (JSCE) and Canadian Code (CSA) as well as the test results.

The compressive strengths of simply supported columns may be significantly increased by reinforcing them with an assemblage of cross-arms and stayed struts connecting both ends of the columns and the cross-arm members. The purpose of the stayed struts and cross-arms is to introduce partial restraints against translation and rotation, thereby decreasing the effective buckling length of the column. In this study, buckling strengths of the assembled column system have been quantitatively evaluated from the theoretical methods based on both the equivalent spring model and the stiffness matrix formulation. And the results were compared with those from elastic/inelastic analysis using a finite element analysis package program, ABAQUS, for verification purpose. Expected compressive strength curves have been proposed for the assembled column system as a function of slenderness ratio of the simply supported column.

A study for the structural strength evaluation on the doubler plate subjected to the biaxial in-plane compression has been performed through the systematic evaluation process. In order to estimate the proper static strength of doubler plate, elasto-plastic large deflection analysis is introduced including the contact effect between main plate and doubler. The characteristics of stiffness and strength variation are discussed based on their results. A1so, in order to compare the doubler structure with the original strength of main plate without doubler, a simple formula for the evaluation of the equivalent flat plate thickness is derived based on the additional series analysis of flat plate structure. Using this derived equation, the thickness change of a equivalent flat plate is analyzed according to the variation of various design parameters of doubler plate and some design guides are suggested in order to maintain the original strength of main plate without doubler reinforcement. Finally, correlation between derived equivalent flat plate formula and the developed buckling strength formulas by author et a1. is discovered and these relations are formulated for the future development of simple strength evaluation formula of doubler plate structure.

The present study proposed a k-value to determine the water-to-binder ratio of concrete using fly ash (FA) or ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) as a partial replacement of ordinary portland cement (OPC) with regard to an equivalent strength of OPC concrete. From the regression analysis using an extensive database including 7076 concrete mixes, k-values were determined for various water-to-binder ratios when the replacement ratio of OPC by the addition of FA or GGBS were below 50%. For deriving an equation to identify k-value, the relationship of concrete compressive strength and water-to-binder ratio was generalized by an exponential function. In general, k-values decreased with the increases in the addition of FA or GGBS for replacement of OPC and water-to-binder ratio. The rate in decreasing k-value against water-to-binder ratio was marginally affected by the addition of FA or GGBS, although a higher k-value was commonly obtained for GGBS concrete than for FA concrete at the same water-to-binder ratio. Consequently, the determined k-values were simplified as a function of water-to-binder ratio and the addition ratio of FA or GGBS as replacement of OPC.
