This paper experimentally evaluates the strength characteristics of precast column-R.C. foundation anchor joint subjected to the cyclic horizontal load. The study presents differences in accurate stress transfer path and destruction mechanism between the concrete structural body applying the precast column-R.C. foundation anchor joint and the concrete structural body applying the steel joint. the result from width load experiment on reinforcing steel under the cyclic horizontal load provides the necessary minimum insertion length to construct the precast column-R.C. foundation anchor joint. This study also presents the accurate stress transfer path and destruction mechanism on the anchor joint th meet the customer's requirements, comparing stress transfer path and destruction mechanism provided by the experiment and those provided by the product manual. Eventually, this study presents all the necessary fundamental data to provide the construction design with accurate number of reinforcing steel, diameter of the steel, fixation length of the steel, etc. to build the optimum precast concrete column.

This paper presents the test results of RCS(Reinforced Concrete Steel) beam-column joint with various types of transverse reinforcements such as small-column-type transverse reinforcements, four-piece ㄱ-shape assembled hoops and four-piece ㄱ-shape welded hoops. Five interior beam-column joint specimens were tested to examine the seismic performance and the shear strengths. From the test results, it was found that all the specimens sustained their strength at large levels of story drift(${\theta}$=0.035) without significant loss of strength and stiffness. Therefore it was concluded that the seismic performance and shear strength of the proposed RCS joint are at least the same as those of the specimen with conventional reinforcing details. Also, the contribution of the outer panel to the shear strength of the joint should be evaluated by the compression strut mechanism rather than compression field mechanism.

The divergence connection between steel circular tubes is widely used in such structures as factory facilities, steel circular hollow section truss, and off-shore tower. Steel circular hollow section (SCHS) have close section, and it makes their per-unit production expense higher than open sectioned products like L-shape, H-shape steels, but the sectional resistance of SCHS against vertical compression and torsion is very high. Despite the structural merits of SCHS, however, many engineers dislike to use them in their design because of uncertainty regarding the stress distribution and deformation behavior at their connections. Therefore, this thesis dealt with X-type connections, the most common forms of connection, and studied their load-deformation relationship. It observed how to show the load-deformation relationship at steel circular tube connections according to the diameter-thickness ratio (D/T) of the chord and diameter of branch-diameter of chord ratio (d/D) and suggested prediction yield load using by ring analysis method.

This paper is the first step on the study of the industrialization of the mid-story steel building structures. The purpose of this study is to investigate the structural behavior of concrete-filled square steel tubular column to H-beam connections using angles and high tension bolts. The tests are carried out with five types of specimens under static loading and the main parameter is the thickness of angles. Yield-line theory which obtains connection strength by way of the lowest value based on upper-limit theory is applied to predict strength formulas.

중량물 혹은 철골구조물 등을 고정시키는데, 건축구조물의 철골기둥, 터빈 제네레이터 기기등을 콘크리트 구조물에 부착시키기 위해 널리 쓰인다. 1990년대 들어 국내 건물의 리모델링, 보수 및 유지관리의 증가에 따라 앵커의 사용량도 현저히 증가하고 있으나 대부분 고가의 외국산제품을 수입하고 있다. 현재 국내외에 주로 시행되는 앵커타입은 마찰형 앵커이나 마찰형 앵커와 달리 지압형 앵커의 경우, 외국에서는 이미 그 유효성에 대한 인식이 널리 퍼져있으며 각국의 지반조건에 적합한 설계법이 개발되었다. 그러나 국내의 경우 이러한 연구가 미진한 실정이며 이에 대한 연구가 절실한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 중량물앵커(Heavy Duty Anchor)의 인장시험을 실시하여 내력을 규명하고 도출한 결과를 기존 시험연구 결과와 비교분석하여 기 제안된 이론식들과 사업경제성에대해 보다 깊이있고 정확한 적용성을 입증하는데 본 연구를 수행하였다. 시험을 통한 저강도 파괴시험의 결과 구조부재의 접합부에서 각 시험체마다 뽑힘파괴가 발생하였으며, 뽑힘파괴가 발생한 시험체는 앵커강재의 파괴력 또는 콘크리트의 콘파괴를 발생시키기에는 앵커슬리브의 확장력이 작게 작용되었다. 그 결과, 콘파괴 대신 구조부재의 접합부에서 뽑힘파괴가 발생되었으며 이를 통해 설계시, 앵커의 안정성을 증가시키기 위해 구조부재의 접합부를 연성적이며, 부가여력을 충분히 지니도록 설계하는 것이 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 고강도 파괴시험의 결과 콘파괴가 발생되었음을 알 수 있는데, 본 시험에 사용된 앵커의 경우 정착위치가 구조물의 연단 모서리 거리와 너무 근접하여 앵커의 내력이 감소하게 되어 콘크리트의 콘강도가 발생되기 전에 먼저 파괴되었다. 따라서 설계시, 앵커의 파괴강도를 증가시키기 위해 앵커의 정착위치를 고려한 설치를 통해 앵커체결과정에서 적정 연단거리를 확보하는 것이 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 앵커볼트 최소간격과 연단거리에 따른 파괴시험결과 앵커볼트의 간격이 허용범위 내에서 넓어질수록 불균등 부반력의 차는 감소하였으며, 최대 부반력도 감소하였다. 따라서 앵커의 파괴저항강도를 증가시키기 위해서는 허용범위 내에서 앵커볼트의 설치간격을 증가시키는 것이 효과적인 것으로 나타났다.

The current trends in steel construction involve the use of tapered sections to minimize the use of excess materials to the extent possible, by choosing cross-sections that are as economical as possible abandoning the classical approach of using prismatic members. In addition, snug-tightened connections, especially the end-plate type, have the advantage of fetching less construction costs and shorter assembly times as opposed to fully tightened joints. Although they have many merits, however, snug-tightened bolted end plates are extremely complex in their structural behavior. In this study, an experimental investigation of the snug-tightened flush end-plate connections of tapered beams were conducted. The primary test parameters were the torque for the clamping bolt, the loading pattern, the bolt type and the connection failure type. Using initial stiffness and load-carrying capacity as proposed by Silva et al. and AISC (2003), the moment-rotation curve of a linearly tapered member with a snug-tightened flush end-plate connection was predicted. Moreover, numerical and experimental data for moment-rotation curves were compared.

Two series of experiments on the performance of beam-column joints in High-Strength Reinforced concrete frames were carried out. Main experimental parameters were : concrete strength, column axial load and amount of joint hoop reinforcement. Test result showed that the ultimate shear strength of exterior joints increased of column axial compressive force and the amount of the joint hoop reinforcements. Through the regression analysis on the 24data, the following equation is obtained $jv_u=(2.935{\times}10-3\;{\rho}jw{\cdot}fy\;+\;0.365){\sqrt{f_{ck}}}$

In this study, details of NRC beam-column connections were developed in which beam and columns pre-assembled in factories using steel angles were bolted on site. The developed joint details are NRC-J type and NRC-JD type. NRC-J type is a method of tensile joining with TS bolts to the side and lower surfaces of the side plate of the NRC column and the end plate of the NRC beam. NRC-JD type has a rigid joint with high-strength bolts between the NRC beam and the side of the NRC column for shear, and with lap splices of reinforcing bar penetrating the joint and the beam main reinforcement for bending. For the seismic performance evaluation of the joint, three specimens were tested: an NRC-J specimen and NRC-JD specimen with NRC beam-column joint details, and an RC-J specimen with RC beam-column joint detail. As a result of the repeated lateral load test, the final failure mode of all specimens was the bending fracture of the beam at the beam-column interface. Compared to the RC-J specimen, the maximum strength of the specimen by the positive force was 10.1% and 29.6% higher in the NRC-J specimen and the NRC-JD specimen, respectively. Both NRC joint details were evaluated to secure ductility of 0.03 rad or more, the minimum total inter-story displacement angle required for the composite intermediate moment frame according to the KDS standard (KDS 41 31 00). At the slope by relative storey displacemet of 5.7%, the NRC-J specimen and the NRC-JD specimen had about 34.8% and 61.1% greater cumulative energy dissipation capacity than the RC specimen. The experimental strength of the NRC beam-column connection was evaluated to be 30% to 53% greater than the theoretical strength according to the KDS standard formula, and the standard formula evaluated the joint performance as a safety side.

In high multistory buildings, hybrid coupled shear walls can provide an efficient structural system to resist horizontal force due to wind and seismic loads. Hybrid coupled shear walls are usually built over the whole height of the building and are laid out either as a series of walls coupled by steel beams with openings to accommodate doors, elevator walls, windows and corridors. In this paper, the behavior characteristics of hybrid coupled shear wall system considering connection details is examined through results of an experimental research program where 5 two-thirds scale specimens were tested under cyclic loading. Such connections details are typically employed in hybrid coupling wall system consisting of steel coupling beams and reinforced concrete shear wall. The test variables of this study are embedment length of steel coupling beam and wall thickness of concrete shear wall. The results and discussion presented in this paper provide fundamental data for seismic behavior of hybrid coupled shear wall systems.

Steel-concrete composite rigid-frame bridge is a type of integral bridge having advantages in bridge maintenance and structural efficiency from eliminating expansion joints and bridge supports, the main problems in bridge maintenance. The typical steel-concrete composite rigid-frame bridge has the girder-abutment connection where a part of its steel girder is embedded in abutment for integrity. However, the detail of typical girder-abutment connection is complex and increases the construction cost, especially when a part of steel girder is embedded. Recently, a new type of bridge was proposed to compensate for the disadvantages of complex details and cost increase. The compensation are expected to improve efficiency of construction by simplifying the construction detail of the girder-abutment connection. In this study, a static load test has been carried out to examine the behavior of the girder-abutment connection using real-scale specimens. The results of the test showed that the girder-abutment connection of proposed girder bridge has sufficient flexural capacity and rebars to control concrete crack should be placed on the top of abutment.
