This paper presents test results on reduced beam section (RBS)program addressed panel zone (PZ) strength as the key variables. PZ strength has been much debated issue for several decades. A desirable range of PZ strength has not yet been proposed despite the fact that a significant amount of RBS test data is available. Test results from this study and by others showed that panel zones could easily develop a plastic rotation of 0.01 radian without causing distress to the beam flange groove welds. At this deformation level, the amount of beam distortion (i.e., buckling) was about one half that developed in strong PZ specimens. A criterion for a balanced PZ strength that improves the plastic rotation capacity while reducing the amount of beam buckling is proposed.

In AASHTO LRFD (2007), a compact section is defined as a section in which no premature failure caused by local buckling of web and flange plate or later buckling occurs before the section reaches the plastic moment, Mp. The current AASHTO LRFD (2007) provides the compact section requirement by limiting the web slenderness only for webs without longitudinal stiffeners. The role of longitudinal stiffener is to increase the web buckling strength caused flexure. Although a web does not satisfy the compactness requirement without longitudinal stiffeners, the web buckling can be prevented by use of valid longitudinal stiffeners. Therefore, the web may be able to reach the plastic moment. However, the reason why a longitudinal stiffener may not be used to satisfy compactness requirement is not cleary explained in AASHTO LRFD (2007). In this study, the buckling and ultimate strength behaviors of stiffened webs subjected to bending are investigated through the linear buckling and nonlinear finite element analysis. It is found that steel plate girders having webs that do not satisfy the compactness requirement are able to reach the plastic moment if the longitudinal stiffeners have sufficient rigidities and are properly located. From a nonlinear regression analysis of the results, a new compactness requirement is suggested for webs stiffened with one longitudinal stiffener.

A double split tee connection is used as a connection that is suitable for ordinary moment frames or special moment frames according to the combination of variables of the thickness of the T-stub flange and the gauge distance of the high-strength bolts. In order to demonstrate safe structural behavior, a double split tee connection must meet the requirements for inter-story drift angles and the moment of connection, as defined in the Korea Building Code-Structural. In order to determine whether the these requirements are met, it is necessary to predict rotational stiffness and the ultimate plastic moment of the connection. Therefore, this study primarily aimed to propose an analytical model for predicting the rotational stiffness of a double split tee connection under a static load. Toward this end, a three-dimensional, non-linear finite element analysis was carried out. Then, the applicability of the proposed model was verified after comparing the test results of this study with other studies.

Moment redistribution problem that reflects plasticity concept is foundation of limit state design and it has been interested to design engineers and researchers for a long time, because it enables the reasonable estimation of strength of structures through amount of reinforcement control about negative moment in support. Many researchers find that moment redistribution closely related to ductility of degree of structure and there are a lot of difficulties in achieving the reliable experimental results because of a lot of restriction of experiment. So, studies are achieved for indirect estimate methods about ductility ability of structures. Each design standards limits that the degree of redistribution of bending moment is based on the measurement of ductility of structure, and it shows conservative results. In this study, with these results, present the basic data for reasonable strength estimation methods and allowed moment redistribution of reinforced concrete continuous beams.

In order to understand rotation behavior of high strength steel endplate connections under fire, this study is compared with existing studies conducted using FEA program. Eurocode 3 presents the three failure modes according to the prediction of bending resistance moment. The parameters of analysis model are temperature, thickness and steel materials of endplate. The rotation stiffness, and bending resistance moment are analyzed according to the parameters. The change of rotation stiffness and bending resistance moment are analyzed about the parameters, regression equations are suggested the change of high strength steel endplate connections. Consequently, the regression equations were proposed as the linear and quadratic equation. The moment ratio of high strength steel under fire was more reduced than the carbon steel, and was small effect about the thickness. When the high strength steel under fire was compared with at ambient temperature, the slope of initial rotation stiffness reduced, the increment ratio of moment was slow, and the change of plastic rotation stiffness wasn't effect by the thickness increase.

휨을 받는 철근콘크리트 부재 단면의 연화현상은 구조물의 파괴하중 해석시 중요한 인자로 작용한다. 일반적인 탄-소성 이론에 근거한 소성한계해석법을 사용할 경우 철골 구조물에는 적합하지만 철근콘크리트 구조물에는 최대하중 이후의 연화현상으로 인하여 이 이론은 부적합하게 된다. 따라서 본 논문의 주목적은 변위제어방법을 사용하여 철근콘크리트 구조물이 파괴될 때까지의 완전한 거동을 이끌어 내는 것이다. 프로그램을 사용한 계산결과를 보다 빠르고 경제적으로 이끌어 내기 위하여 단면의 성질인 모멘트-곡률, 축력-축\ulcorner향 변형률, 그리고 전단력 변형률 곡선 등을 여러개의 직선적으로 단순화한 모델식을 사용하여 해석한다. 또한 연화현상을 고려한 유한요소의 해석결과는 사용된 요소의 크기에 따라 결과가 매우 다르게 나타나기 때문에 이를 방지하기 위하여 파괴에너지 개념을 도입하여 모멘트-곡률 곡선을 보정하여 구조계산에 적용시킨다. 이와 같이 단면을 층으로 나누어 해석하지 않고 직접 단면의 성질을 나타내는 곡선들을 적용한 본 프로그램으로 보와 골조를 해석한 결과는 실제적인 실험결과와 비교하였을 경우 거의 일치하게 나타난다.

The reel-lay method of submarine pipelines a continuous string of pipe coiled onto a reel. Assembly of this pipe that is string is accomplished onshore by welding, and nondestructive testing is carried out prior to coiling the pipe. The total length of pipes on the reel depends on the reel and pipe diameters. Pipeline installation is accomplished by uncoiling, straightening the pipe, and laying out the pipe string onto the seabed as the barge moves forward. Installation associated with coiling and uncoiling is related to the bending moment and strain relationship of the pipeline, A highgrade pipe material is required when the reel-lay method is used. This paper is concerned with the highly plastic bending moment of the pipeline, including the effect of ovality. Moment calculation in the pipe is accomplished by the numerical method, including the variable ovalities during the plastic bending of the pipe string. The new calculation method of the high plastic bending moment was applied to the reel-lay method.

This study was programmed to fabricate a beam-to-column connection that is limited to a steel-welded moment connection with full-scale members, using SN steel. A cyclic seismic test was conducted of the nine specimens that were fabricated by choosing the test variable for the weld access hole geometry, connection design method, and RBS. From the test results, failure modes, the moment-drift behavior, and the strain distribution were provided. From the specimen material properties, the beam's nominal plastic flexural capacity and classified qualified connection as a special moment flame were calculated. By analyzing the skeleton part and the baushinger part, a range of strength-raising effects, and deformation ratios were provided, with which the seismic performance of the specimens were evaluated. The test results showed that the specimens eliminated their weld access holes that demonstrated higher seismic performance than the specimens' existing weld access holes, and that the WUF-W connection that was reinforced by the supplemental fillet weld around the shear tap that was fastened by five bolts demonstrated superior seismic performance.
