This paper investigated the structural capacity of the CT shear connectors, which is a kind of the perfobond rib and functions as an anchor transferring the tension force in the joint between a composite PHC wall pile and a bottom slab. The direct pull-out test was performed for various specimens. From failure modes and load-displacement curves, it was found that transverse rebars should be placed to holes in a web to restrict pull-out failure of CT shear connectors. The results of additional tests for specimens with transverse rebars and various support lengths indicated that all specimens were failed by the tension failure of PHC pile before pull-out failure of CT shear connector and concrete pull-out failure. Thus, the CT shear connector could endure the tension force between the PHC wall pile and the bottom slab.

PSC 연속 평판슬래브의 설계는 부정정 평판슬래브에 대한 정확한 해석의 어려움 등으로 등가보이론과 등가골조이론에 의한 근사식을 수정없이 사용하거나 컴퓨터를 이용한 해석에 의존하고 있으나 해석결과를 간단하게 정확히 평가할 수 있는 기법은 없는 실정이다. 또한 PSC 연속 평판슬래브의 부재력은 긴장재의 곡선형태에 따라 변하므로 실제 설계시 PS 긴장재의 정확한 곡선식을 찾는 것은 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 비부착 PSC 연속 평판슬래브를 설계할 때 기둥과 기둥을 연결하는 PS 긴장재의 기하학적 곡선형태를 결정하는 방법과, PS 긴장력으로 인해 발생하는 평판슬래브의 기둥부 휨모멘트에 대하여 판이론을 기초로 간편하게 계산하는 방법을 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 이론으로 계산된 PSC 연속 평판슬래브에 대한 해석값과 유한요소 해석에 의한 지점 부모멘트를 비교 검토하여, 본 논문에서 제시한 기법의 타당성을 입증하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 설계자에게 컴퓨터의 해석결과를 간단하고 정확하게 검증할 수 있도록 하였다.

An experimental investigation was conducted with half-scale representations of the reinforced concrete shear walls with the opening subjected to cyclic loads. Specimens were half scale representations of a one-story wall in the apartment built in 1980. The area ratio of the opening section, as well as the size and critical section of coupling slabs, were decided based on results from a previous researches. The test result of WS-0.23 specimen, which has artificial damages to install the opening, the strength of the wall decreased due to the opening. It is apparent that influence of cutting reinforcing bars and decrease of effective section area lead to early first yield of the reinforcing bars before the allowable limit of drift ratio of the shear walls was reached. Therefore, proper reinforcing method is needed to prevent this. The decrease of strength of the shear walls by installation of openings shows a great deal of difference compared to previous researches. This is because flexural capacity of the slabs is working as coupling elements for the shear walls. The critical section of coupling slabs that works as coupling elements for shear walls was a little different from the results of previous researches.

The slab-type precast modular bridge consists of the precast slab bridge modules which are connected in the transverse direction. The longitudinal joints between the precast slab bridge modules are filled with cast-in-place mortar. The construction of the slab-type precast modular bridge is completed by applying the prestressing force on the longitudinal joints. In this study, 4-points bending tests and 3-points bending tests were conducted to examine the effects of the prestressing force and the shape of joint on the flexural strength and crack serviceability of longitudinal joint. The results of 4-points bending tests showed that the flexural strength is affected by the prestressing force but not by the shape of join. From the results of 3-points bending tests by which the bending moment and the shear force are simultaneously applied on the joints of the specimens, it is observed that the shape of joint affects on the flexural strength and the crack behavior. The results of two types of bending tests confirmed that the prestressing force according to the design code is appropriate and the joint with two shear keys gives the better performances against the crack of joint.

The main objective of this study is to develop a continuity of double tee slab with two modified dap-ends to solve the problems of excessive moment, slab depth, deflection, and joint cracking in the original simply supported double tee slab systems. The modified joint is produced in a combination with two slabs with modified dap and one rectangular beam. The modified joint can be justified as following different merits. The span capacity for a design load is increased, while the deflection of the slab is decreased due to the decrease of positive moment at the center span of the slab. The joint cracking between slab and beam, which occur frequently in the original slab systems of double tee will be reduced. No more additional form work is needed to cast topping concrete for continuity. Three point loading tests are performed on the specimens with a variable of an amount of main longitudinal reinforcement to evaluate flexural and shear behavior. Following conclusions are obtained from the experimental investigation. The continuity of double tee slab effectively is provided by placing longitudinal steel reinforcement in the topping concrete over the connection, and generally leads to an increase in span capacity of double tee slabs with reduced deflection. It is more effective to control the initial cracking at the connection than that of some simply supported double tee slab systems.

This study was conducted to investigate the feasibility of the expedite construction of new pavement systems using precast concrete slabs and to develop the design and construction guide based on the results of the experimental construction. Half scale concrete slabs were designed and fabricated and the optimal reinforcement design, linkages between the slabs in the longitudinal and transverse directions, and the grouting methods were investigated. The experimental construction was performed fast and easily by assembling two slabs in the longitudinal direction and the other two in the transverse direction. The slabs were leveled and the pockets and the space between the slab bottom and the underlying layer were grouted. From the experimental construction, details about the design and construction of the precast pavements were acquired. Finally, the design and construction guide for the newly constructed precast concrete pavement systems was developed.

현재 원전의 내진해석 절차에는 수직방향의 동적해석모델을 집중질량-보요소 모델로 나타내고 있으나, 층슬래브이 동적유연성을 합리적으로 고려할 수 있는 기준이 마련되어 있지 않다. 본 연구에서는 벽체로 지지된 4변고정 슬래브를 유한요소모델 및 집중질량모델로 이상화한 후 고유치해석 및 시간이력해석을 수행한 결과, 현재 층슬래브의 수직응답을 얻기 위해 통상적으로 사용되는 일련의 단자유도계 모델은 이에 상응하는 유한요소모델의 각 모드에 대한 평균응답밖에 주지 못함을 확인하였고, 각 모드 층슬래브의 최대응답을 얻기 위해서는 각 고유진동수가 최소한 이자유도계로 모델링되어야 하며, 이때 이자유도계에 분배할 질량 및 연결보의 강성크기가 각각 1:5와 1:6일때 잘 일치함을 확인하였다. 또한 이렇게 결정된 모델링 방법은 실제 전단벽 구조물의 해석을 통해 그 적용성이 입증되었다.

In the composite beam subjected to the hogging moment it is very difficult to evaluate the influence of the reduction of slab stiffness due to cracks and their development on the horizontal shear behavior of shear connection. In this study, a 3D FE model is developed by which one can analyze the composite action in the composite beam subjected to the hogging moment. In this FE model, each structural member and shear connection are modeled as similar as possible to details of the composite beam. Bending behaviour, and composite action which could not be analyzed using the existing 1D or 2D FE model are investigated by the 3D model. Analysis results show that the reinforcement ratio and crack behaviour of the slab are main factors which exert a strong influence on the composite action. According to the analysis results about load-slip behavior, initial crack of slab and yielding of rebars have a influence on the slip stiffness of shear connection. The existing experimental results, that the design of partial interaction can be more efficient in designing of shear connection of the composite beams, are indirectly verified by the FE analysis.

This paper is a preliminary study to apply the lightweight concrete slabs reinforced with GFRP (glass fiber reinforced polymer) bars to the bridge deck slabs or some other concrete structures. So, some different behaviors between the conventional steel reinforced concrete slab and the lightweight concrete slab reinforced with GFRP bars were investigated. For this purpose, a number of slabs were constructed and then the three point bending test and numerical analysis for these slabs were performed. The flexural test results showed that the lightweight concrete slabs reinforced with GFRP bars were failed by the shear failure due to the over-reinforced design. The weight and failure load of the GFRP bar reinforced lightweight concrete slabs were 72% and 58% of the steel reinforced concrete slab with the same dimensions, respectively. Results of the numerical analysis for these slabs using a commercial program, midas FEA, showed that the load-deflection curve could be simulated well until the shear failure of the slabs, but the applied loads and the deflections continuously increased even beyond the shear failure loads.
