This study evaluate the characteristics of stainless steel for the use of stainless steel tubes as structural members. The strength of stainless steel tube was compared with that of steel tube stub-columns through tensile experiment and compressed experiment. The selected experimental parameters were diameter (width)-thickness and section shape. The results of tests showed that stainless steel tubes could be predicted as superior to steel tubes in terms of tensile strength, yield ratio, elongation percentage, and absorption ability of energy. The yield strength of stainless steel tubes were found to be higher than the Korean Standards ($Fy=2.1tf/cm^2$) and the design strength of SIJ-ASD($Fy=2.4tf/cm^2$). It was also higher then the yield strength of steel tubes. The plastic deformation of stainless steel tubes was found to beto that of steel tubes.

Space truss is a rational system which forming large span in spatial structure and the steel tube is used well as a structure member in truss system. This study includes coupon test and Stub-column compression test on the structural steel tube. The compression test of Stub-column was performed to characterize and quantify the material characteristic and strength of column. In this study, we also researched the matter of compatibility, in which we compared the experiment formula and the abstract formula by the application of the LSD standard formula, SSRC and ECCS multiple column curve.

The use of imported structural steel tubes has been increased in domestic construction field because of its low price, but the mechanical properties of those steel tube are not verified exactly. This study includes coupon test and stub - column compression test on the structural steel tube. The compression test of stub - column was performed to characterize and quantify the material characteristic and strength of column compatibility, in which we compared the experiment formula and the abstract formula by the application of the LRFD standard formula and multiple column curve.

In this study, This study investigates the axial load behavior of concrete-filled steel columns using seismic rectangular steel tube with the width-to-thickness and slenderness ratio. Due to cold-roll forming and cold-press forming of steel tube, the flat part and the corner part of the rectangular steel tubes are changed in the material properties compared to SN-steel plate. It was showed the tendency to increase yield strength, tensile strength and upper limit of yield ratio This phenomenon affects the nonlinear behavior after local buckling of the steel tube. Therefore, the coupon test was performed by the processing of rectangular steel tube, in order to assess forming performance. And a total of 6 CFT-columns were tested under monotonic loading condition. Main parameters were the width-thickness ratio and the slenderness ratio.

Corrosion resistance steel has been widely used for port and offshore structures exposed to harsh coastal and oceanic environments, due to lower corrosion rate. New higher strength corrosion resistance steel tubes named STKM500 in KS D 3300 were recently developed by domestic technology and expected to replace foreign ASTM A690 steel. In this study, tensile test results are included to show higher yield and tensile strength of STKM500. Then, buckling test results obtained from 2m, 6m, and 12m steel tubes are demonstrated, based on which an allowable axial compressive stress curve for STKM500 steel tubes is suggested.

With building structures becoming higher and having longer spans, new structural steel with better strength, thicker plate, and performance may be required rather than conventional structural steel. TMC steel is widely used in building structures largely due to its excellent seismic performance, superior weldability, and design strength that is not affected by plate thickness. To make use of TMC steel in pipe structures with large diameter and heavy wall, however, the this study, the degradation of material properties in submerged are welded SM520TMC steel pipes and tubes was evaluated using variable fabrication process and material change. Degradation test results showed that the yield and ultimate strength increased and elongation decreased regardless of the mode of fabrication, i.e., through roll bending or press forming, or steel used, i.e., domestic SM520TMC steel or SM520TMC steel from Japan.

Because the framed wall system using steel studs and runners with square steel tubes as structural elements is reinforced by the horizontal members called runners, it has more strength and load bearing capacity than the steel house wall system. Also, this system improves adiabatic and sound insulation performance by filling up the autoclaved lightweight concrete. We need to evaluate load bearing capacity according to the axial load and lateral load in case this system is applied in the housing system with 3~5 stories through variations in intervals for the runners under the placement effect of autoclaved lightweight concrete. Therefore, this study seeks to analyze axial and shear behavior of the framed wall system according to the placement effect of autoclaved lightweight concrete, and to secure safety for the vertical and lateral loads.

부하가 밀집된 도심지의 배전전주는 고저압 배전선로용은 물론 주상변압기, 개폐기 등 배전기기의 설치를 위하여 필요불가결한 설비 중의 하나이다. 그러나 도심지에서는 미관저해 및 건물의 가치하락을 우려하는 민원으로 인하여 신규 건주에 어려움을 쥐고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하고자 일반전주의 2배인 최대 6대의 주상변압기, 2대의 개폐기 및 특고압 인입설비를 설치할 수 있도록 2개의 상부 구조를 가지는 Y형 강관전주를 개발하였다.

도로의 가드레일 지주 근입깊이의 부족에 의한 자동차의 전락사고 이 후, 일본의 국토교통성 등의 관계자들이 그 대책 세우기에 부심해 왔으나, 기설 지주의 근입깊이를 측정할 수 있는 방법은 아직까지 알려져 있지 않으며, 현재로서는 작업의 전 과정을 비디오로 촬영하여 그 기록을 남기도록 되어있다. 그러나 그것은 상당히 비효율적인 작업으로 엄밀한 감시기능을 다하지 못하고 있으며, 감독자와 시공자의 양자로부터 계측 도구의 개발이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 일부의 초음파 측정기 업자가 가드레일 지주의 근입깊이를 측정할 수 있다고 주장하고 있으나, 시장에는 아직 나타나지 않고 있으며, 그 측정시스템의 측정여부와 성능의 검증이 이루어지지 않고 있는 상황이다. 지금까지 충격탄성파법 또는 초음파법을 이용하여, 매설된 가드레일 지주의 근입깊이를 측정한 성공사례가 정식으로 보고된 바는 없으며, 같은 강관주인 눈사태 방지책의 지주 파이프에 대한 근입깊이의 측정은 본 연구그룹의 의해 행하여진 바가 있다. 검사봉이나 해머 등으로 대상물을 두드려서 탄성파를 발생시키고, 그것을 가속도계 또는 속도계의 진동센서로 감지하여 그 파형을 분석함으로써 대상물의 치수 등을 측정하는 충격탄성파법은, 특히 콘크리트를 대상으로 공동 및 매설물 등의 탐사, 균열깊이의 측정 등에 폭 넓게 사용되고 있다. 하지만 이 측정방법을 가드레일의 지주의 근입깊이 측정에 적용할 경우, 일반적으로 행하여지는 방법, 즉 진동센서를 대상물의 상단부(캡)에 설치하는 방법으로는 접합부에 의한 탄성파의 손실과 캡의 휨 진동에 의한 노이즈 등을 해결하기가 곤란해진다. 또한 지반의 존재로 인한 진동 모드의 변화와 진동에너지의 감소 등의 문제점을 해결하지 않으면 안 된다. 본 연구는 충격탄성파법을 이용하여 지반에 설치된 눈사태 방지책이나 가드레일의 지주와 같은 강관 구조물의 근입깊이를 측정하고자 하는 연구이다. 이를 위해 진동센서를 캡이 아닌 측면부에 취부장치를 이용하여 설치함으로써 길이방향의 탄성파를 측정할 수 있도록 하고, 실제 구조물에 대해 측정을 실시하여 그 측정시스템의 성능과 유용성을 검토하고자 한다. 또한 다양한 길이의 실험용 강관 파이프를 매설하고 측정실험을 실시하여 측정시스템의 적용성에 대해서도 검토하였다. 본 연구를 통하여, 수신센서를 파이프의 측면에 선접촉하게 함으로서 종파를 감지하여 근입깊이를 포함한 파이프의 전 길이를 측정하는 본 측정시스템은 매설된 강관 구조물의 길이 측정에 기본적으로 적용 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히 오거 굴착으로 시공된 경우에는 높은 정도의 측정성능을 보여주었다. 또한 항타관입 파이프에 대해서는 지반의 영향을 고려함으로써 길이의 측정이 가능하다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 즉, 오거 굴착 또는 항타 관입 등 시공방법에 따라 측정결과에 대한 지반의 영향 정도가 달라지며 파형 분석 및 길이 산정시 그 영향을 고려하여야 함을 확인하였다.

A connection composed of a circular hollow structural section (HSS) has complicated details, and exhibits a very complex local deformation when it reaches the yield stress. Given these circumstances, proposing a simple design equation considering local deformation is difficult. The design equations of the Korea Building Code (KBC 2009) for HSS joints are simple and are very similar to those of the AISC. These design equations limit the maximum yield stress up to 360MPa and yield ratio (yield strength/tensile strength) up to 0.8. This means that the material with yield strength exceeding 360MPa could be used after verification based on the test or rational analysis for the similar connection. This paper introduces an experimental program and finite element analysis (FEA) for the circular hollow section (CHS) with a transverse gusset plate made of high-strength steel (HSB600) or structural steel (SS400) when the joints are subjected to lateral force. Comparison of the design equations with the results of FEA and test may be used for the modification of the design equations.
