In this study, a thermomechanical numerical model was developed to evaluate the stability of energy slabs. First, a wall-type energy slab was installed in a residential underground parking lot, and thermal performance tests were conducted. Based on the tests, a numerical thermohydraulics model of the energy slab was developed to accurately simulate the thermal behavior in thermal performance tests. Finally, utilizing the temperature data acquired using the developed model, a thermomechanical numerical model of the energy slab was established. The thermomechanical model was then used to simulate the thermal stresses induced by operating the energy slab. The results demonstrated a maximum thermal stress of 5,300 kPa, which highlights the need to utilize cement mortar with sufficient tensile strength to realize stable operation of the energy slab.

In this study, an improved energy-based nonlinear static analysis method are proposed to be used for more accurate evaluation of progressive collapse potential of steel moment frames by reflecting the contribution of a double-span floor slab. To this end, the behavior of the double-span floor slab was first investigated by performing material and geometric nonlinear finite element analysis. A simplified energy-absorbed analytical model by idealizing the deformed shape of the double-span floor slab was developed. It is shown that the proposed model can easily be utilized for modeling the axial tensile force and strain energy response of the double-span floor slab under the column-removal scenario.

본 논문에서는 파일형 선박충돌 방호공에 선박이 충돌하였을 때 방호공의 거동을 해석하였다. 방호공의 구조는 상부슬래브, RCP 말뚝 및 이를 지지하는 지반은 비선형 지반스프링으로 모델링 하였다. 상부슬래브 8절점요소로 모델링 하였으며 철근과 콘크리트로 구성되어있다. RCP 말뚝은 철근망과 충진콘크리트로 구성되어있으며 충돌 시 파괴거동을 표현할 수 있는 Damaged Plasticity로 모델을 사용하였고 Shell 요소로 모델링 하였다. 선박충돌 시 선박의 강성에 따른 거동 특성을 파악하기 위해 선박을 강체모델과 실제모델에 대한 해석을 수행하였다. 선박과 교량의 충돌은 정면충돌로 고려하였으며, 충돌속도는 3.3m/sec로 가정하였다. 선박과 방호공과의 충돌 해석은 비선형 해석 프로그램인 ABAQUS/Explicit을 이용하여 수행하였으며, 이를 통하여 선박 충돌 시 방호공의 에너지 거동을 분석하였다. 해석결과 선박의 강성이 커질수록 슬래브의 변형 및 소산 에너지량이 커지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

최근 국내외에서 친환경건축물에 관한 관심이 매우 높아짐으로 인해 콘크리트의 물량을 절감하여 이산화탄소량을 줄이는 중공슬래브는 다양한 형태로 세계적으로 개발이 되고 있는 추세이다. 특히 이방향 중공슬래브는 환경적인 측면에서 이방향 중공슬래브는 중공부 생성에 재생플라스틱을 활용하여 폐자원을 재사용하고, 콘크리트와 철근의 사용량 절감에 따른 화석에너지 및 이산화탄소 발생량을 감소한다는 장점이 있다. 또한 시스템 측면에서 이방향 중공슬래브는 기존의 철근콘크리트 플랫플레이트 바닥구조 시스템의 자중을 절감하여 구조체를 경량화 시키고, 이에 따라 장스팬 구현이 가능하며, 단열효과가 뛰어나다. 이와 같이 이방향 중공슬래브는 장점이 많지만 플랫플레이트 슬래브의 취약점인 뚫림전단 파괴에 주의해야 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 선행으로 실시된 이방향 중공슬래브-기둥 접합부 뚫림전단 성능평가 실험을 바탕으로 하여 경량체가 이방향 중공슬래브-기둥 접합부 뚫림전단 성능에 미치는 영향을 살펴보기 위해 범용 유한요소해석 프로그램인 ABAQUS를 사용하여 경량체량 및 위치를 주요변수로 한 해석적인 변화를 검토하였다. 본 연구를 통해 경량체가 삽입된 이방향 중공슬래브의 뚫림전단 성능에 대해, 해석결과 경량체 량과 위치에 따라 최대 뚫림전단강도는 기준 실험체에 비해 74.3%, 73%의 강도저하를 나타내는 것으로 알 수 있었다. 이는 실험상의 강도저하 값인 84.1%, 56.4%와 다소 차이가 있으며, 해석에서 중공부 주위의 응력집중 현상이 제대로 반영되지 않은 것으로 판단된다. 또한 이방향 슬래브에 경량체를 삽입 할 경우 경량체가 시작하는 부분에서 응력이 급격히 감소하는 현상이 나타났으며, 이러한 급격한 응력감소는 기둥 주위 위험단면의 변화를 가져오는 것으로 추정된다. 즉, 위험단면의 변화는 기둥으로부터 경량체 사이의 거리에 따라 달라지며, 위험단면 내의 콘크리트 단면 손실은 뚫림전단 강도를 감소시킨다. 본 연구에서는 이방향 중공슬래브의 뚫림전단강도를 산정할 수 있는 근사식을 제안하였으며, 보다 정확한 이방향 중공슬래브의 뚫림전단강도의 산정식을 위해서는 위험단면의 변화와 콘크리트 단면손실로 인한 전단강도 저하의 관계에 대한 추가적인 연구가 필요하다.

The composite metal deck plate system has been widely used of late for office structures. However, composite floor decks are bored imprudently for installation in building equipment. In this study, experimental investigations of bored composite steel deck slabs were performed to evaluate the flexural capacity of each specimen. The variables set were the shapes and positions of the openings in the composite slabs. The results were analyzed in the form of load-displacement graphs and with respect to the ductility and energy dissipation capacity ofeach specimen to evaluate its structural capacity.

Geothermal heat pump system has been spotlighted as an efficient building energy system, because it has great potentials for reducing energy in building air conditioning and reducing $CO_2$ emissions. However, higher initial cost is a barrier to the promotion of its use. Energy-pile and energy-slab are known as low cost ground heat exchangers comparing with conventional ground heat exchangers, because they utilize building structures as ground heat exchangers. This paper presents the daily cooling performance of a geothermal heat pump system with energy-pile and energy-slab. The energy-piles and the energy-slabs are connected to heat pump units in parallel. The cooling capacity of the system was nearly constant due to the stability of the ground heat exchangers. The stability of the energy-pile was a little higher than that of the energy-stab as a heat sink.

In this paper, to intend anticorrosive effect and weight reduction of conventional reinforced concrete slab, lightweight concrete slab reinforced with glass fiber reinforced polymer(GFRP) bar was considered and some basic behaviour of the slab were investigated. Measurement of splitting tensile strength and fracture energy of the concrete, a number of flexural experiment of the slab, numerical analysis using nonlinear finite element analysis, and comparison of the experimental results to the numerical analysis, were conducted. As a result, even the weight of the lightweight concrete slab could be reduced by about 28% than the normal concrete slab, failure load of the lightweight concrete slab was 36% smaller than the normal concrete slab. Such a thing can be attributed to the lower axial stiffness and lower bond strength of GFRP bar. In the numerical analysis, to consider decreasing property of bond strength of the lightweight concrete, interface element was used between the concrete and the GFRP bar elements and this method was shown to be a better way for the numerical analysis to approach the experimental results.

Volume of concrete slab changes by temperature and moisture effects. At that time, tensile stress develops because the slab volume change is restrained by friction resistance between the slab and subbase, and then crack occurs occasionally. Accordingly, researchers have made efforts to figure out the friction characteristics between the slab and subbase by performing push-off tests. Lately, researches to analyze concrete pavement behavior by the friction characteristics have been performed by finite element method. In this study, The friction characteristics between the slab and subbase were investigated based on the friction test results for lean concrete, aggregate, and asphalt subase widely used in Korean concrete pavements. The energy method bilinearizing relation between nonlinear friction resistance and displacement were suggested. The friction test was modeled by 3-D finite element program, ABAQUS, and the model was verified by comparing the analyzed results to the test results. The bilinear model developed by the energy method was validated by comparing analysis results obtained by using the nonlinear and bilinear friction resistance displacement relation as input data. A typical Korean concrete pavement was modeled by ABAQUS and EverFE and analyzed results were compared to evaluate applicability of the bilinear model.

The suppression of residual settlement is required on earthwork sections as concrete track is introduced. Use of pile-slab structure is one of the settlement restraining methods applied on soft ground. The slab distributes the upper embankment load and piles transfer the load from the slab to the stiff ground. While this method is very effective in terms of load transfer, it has not yet been established for dealing with the vibration transfer effects and interaction characteristics between a structure and the ground. It is possible that vibration caused by a moving train load is propagated in the upper embankment, because the slab acts as a reflection layer and waves are multi-reflected. In this present paper, wave propagation generated by a moving train load is evaluated in the time and frequency domains to consider a roadbed structure using an artificial impact load and field measured train load. The results confirmed the wave reflection effect on the pile-slab structure, if the embankment height is sufficient, vibration propagation can be stably restrained, whereas if the height is not sufficient, the vibration amplitude is increased.
