Hollow slab is a floor system which reduces the load of vertical structural members and earthquake load by decreasing self-weight of slab. Although hollow slab can reduce self-weight of slab remarkably, flexural strength and shear strength reduce due to the hollow section inside the slab, so it is very important to predict structural behavior. In spite of plenty of domestic and foreign studies on hollow slab, there is a shortage of research on shear performance according to shear reinforcement of one-way hollow slab. Therefore, this study aims to verify the need for shear reinforcement of one-way hollow slab by analyzing failure modes of one-way hollow slab depending on the state of shear reinforcement and comparing shear strengths of estimation formula and experimental value with one another.

This paper presented an structural efficiency of steel coupling beam jointed single plate shear connections with seat and top angle. Parameters for the test specimens were are seat and top angle, reinforcing of concrete, embedded length, section loss. Steel coupling beam with angle showed excellent strength, stiffness, energy dissipation capacity. The specimen with no reinforcement around the embedded steel plate showed slightly low deformation capacity because of early failure in the precast concrete walls. However, the specimen with reinforcement around the embedded steel plate showed good deformation capacity. Deformation capacity was not decrease despite short embedded length. The specimen with section loss showed excellent deformation capacity. Because shear strength of steel coupling beam was lesser than of connections. These results showed that for workability and cost efficiency, the proposed system is promising for one of steel coupling beam.

As a new system of steel pipe pile cap reinforcement, the application of perforated flat bar bolted to the steel pipe pile head was suggested for the improvement of structural performance of footing structure. This study investigates the structural characteristics of perforated flat bar shear connectors according to shape and diameter of hole, number of rebars passing through the hole and the depth of settlement. The result shows several requirements to ensure sufficient pull-out resistance and ductility such as that the hole diameter excluding diameter of rebar should exceed the size of aggregates; the hole should be perforated with diameter as the half of plate height; and the adequate depth of settlement should be ensured for the optimal performance.

Purpose: Recently, As the size of the structure increased, the necessity of reducing its weight was raised. To reduce weight In concrete structures, a hollow slab is proposed as an alternative for weight reduction effect. Method: It is difficult to construct the hollow body due to buoyancy, and the shear performance is insufficient due to the decreased cross section. Slabs were fabricated using unidirectional hollow bodies such as PVC pipes, and experiments were conducted about construction performance and structural performance. Results: The buoyancy preventive device has been improved the construction performance by preventing floating hollow body, it has been confirmed that it has adequate performance to be used as a hollow slab system because it has enough expected shear performance. Coclusion: Hollow ratio has a little connection with bending performance, but after the yielding load, it is necessary to consider the secondary stiffness of structure, and is is supposed that the decrease of shear performance with the increase of hollow core ratio can be complemented with shear reinforcement.

The behaviors of steel-plate shear panels were investigated through an experimental and analytical study, using mild steel (S40). Steel-plate shear panels buckle at small loads, and their strength is based on the shear panel's postbuckling strength due to tension field action. In design practice, however, the capacity of steel-plate shear panels is limited to the elastic buckling strength of shear panels. Th e National Standard on Limit States Design of Steel Structures, CAN/CSA-S16.1-94 (1994) contains a guideline for the analysis of thi n, unstiffened, steel-plate shear walls using the strip model. In this paper, the structural capacity of shear panels was evaluated using the results of the experiment and of the strip model analysis.

According to the development of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC), its mechanical performance have been known as superior than normal and/or high performance concrete. However, its construction and structural safety must have studied with revisions and supplements. In this study, tests have been performed on UHPC precast segment joint with different levels of joint types and lateral forces under direct shear. From the results of the experimental tests, it can be concluded that the properties of the referred joints are significant for the resistance of shear behavior, and the increase of lateral force in these joints may suggest as critical lateral stress on that behavior.

In the NRC (New paradigm Reinforced Concrete) beam, steel forms, main angles used as main reinforcements, and shear angles used as basic shear reinforcements are welded and assembled in the form of vierendeel truss structures in a steel factory. After the NRC truss frame is installed at the site, additional main reinforcement and shear reinforcement are distributed. In this study, the shear performance evaluation of the NRC beam was conducted through shear tests in accordance with the type of shear reinforcement of the NRC beam (shear angle, inclined shear reinforcing bar, and U-type cover bar). As a result of the test, the initial stiffness was similar before the initial cracking of each specimen, and all specimens were shear fractured.The shear reinforcements of the specimens exhibited a yielding behavior at the time of the maximum sheat force, and the shear strengths of the specimens increased as the amount of reinforcement of the shear reinforcement increased. These results show that NRC shear reinforcements exhibit shear performance corresponding to their shear strength contribution. As a result of calculating the nominal shear strengths according to KDS 14 20 22, the experimental shear strengths of the NRC beam specimens with shear reinforcement was 37~146% larger than the nominal shear strengths, so It was evaluated as a safety side.

The purpose of this study is to experimentally investigate the shear behavior of flat plate that reinforced by embedded GFRP(glass fiber reinforced polymer) plate with openings. Shape of the GFRP shear reinforcement is a plate with several openings to ensure perfect integration with concrete. The test was performed on 7 specimens to check shear strength of flat plate that reinforced by GFRP plate. The parameters include the spacing of the shear reinforcement and amount of the shear reinforcement. The result of test showed that when amount of shear reinforcement was increased, shear strength improved. The result of test showed that maximum shear strength was confirmed when spacing of shear reinforcement was 0.3d. The calculation of the shear strength of reinforced flat plate with GFRP plate based on the KCI was compared with the test results.

This paper deals with the shear capacity of corrugated rib as the shear connector in composite structures. Corrugated rib is modified as perfobond rib shear connector type to evaluate the shear capacity. A total 12 push-out specimens with stud, perfobond rib, and corrugated rib connector were fabricated. Then, the influences of hole-crossing bars, concrete dowel, depth of corrugated panel and height of rib on the shear capacity were evaluated experimentally. As the results of these tests, the failure mechanisms of corrugated rib and perfobond rib specimens were associated with the bearing failure of the concrete slabs, but the failure of weld zone did not occur. The shear capacity of corrugated rib specimens improved as high to 96% compared to the perfobond rib shear connectors. Also, the hole-crossing bars were effective on the improvement of concrete dowel action, and consequently, shear capacity increased by 48%. It was also proven that the increment of the depth of corrugated panel and the height of rib increased the concrete bearing resistance, therefore increasing the shear capacity.

In this study, push-out and static loading tests were conducted to evaluate the behavioral characteristics of composite beams with a perfobond rib shear connector. The shear capacity of the perfobond rib was found to be proportional to its concrete strength, which is in turn affected by the increase in the concrete end-bearing strength and concrete dowel action to resist the shear force. The relative slips of the push-out specimen, however, which was used to assess the ductility of the shear connector, increased to some extent, but it no longer increased when it reached the critical concrete strength because of the flexibility of the transverse rebar in the rib hole. The static-loading-test results revealed a crack on the concrete slab in the composite beam with a perfobond rib on the side of the rib hole and transverse rebar for the applied moment and shear force to the rib hole, depending on the static loading. The shear resistance characteristics of the perfobond rib shear connector were found to resist the shear force from the relative slip on the interface of the composite beam. Thus, the sectional effect of the shear connector to the composite beam with a perfobond rib should be considered when designing the composite beam because the behavior of the composite beam can change owing to the shear connector.
