This paper predicts premature failure load of reinforced concrete beams by epoxy-boned partially steel plates. A parametric study is conducted to estimate premature failure load of beams such as with or without stirrups, unplated length ratio, steel and reinforcement ratio, shear span to depth ratio of reinforcement beam. By results of finite element analysis, it turned out that the unplated length played a dominant role in partially plated beams but reinforcement ratio and shear span to depth ratio effected the premature failure load. The approximate expression with regard to combined design variables is compared with experimental results. It shows closely agreement.

It has been an always issue for the blasting or the impact analysis to consider the strength characteristics of the rock materials associate with loading rate dependency. Due to the nature of transient loading, the dynamic rock test requires a careful technique to achieve the stress equilibrium state of the specimen. In this study, to investigate the relationship between the rock dynamic strength and the stress equilibrium state, a series of dynamic uniaxial compression tests for Pocheon granite were performed. As a result, the unbalanced stress state on the specimen can lead to the premature failure on the specimen and the less estimation of dynamic strength characteristic as well as the overestimation of strain rate. Consequently, a careful consideration of rock fracture process to achieve the dynamic force balance on the specimen should be required to make an reasonable evaluation of rock dynamic strength.

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CRFP) materials are well suited to the rehabilitation of civil engineering structures due to their corrosion resistance, high strength to weight ratio and high stiffness to weight ratio. Their application in the field of the rehabilitation of concrete structures is increased due to the vast number of bridges and buildings in need of strengthening. However, RC members, strengthened with externally bonded CFRP plates, happened to collapse before reaching the expected design failure load. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the new strengthening method to overcome the problems of previous bonded strengthening method. This problems can be solved by prestressing the CFRP plate before bonding to the concrete. In this study, a total of 21 specimens of 3.3 m length were tested by the four point bending method after strengthening them with externally bonded CFRP plates. The CFRP plates were bonded without prestress and with various prestress levels ranging from 0.4% to 0.8% of CFRP plate strain. All specimen with end anchorage failed by a plate fracture regardless of the prestress levels while the specimen without end anchorage failed by the separation of the plate from the beam due to premature debonding. The cracking loads was proportionally related to the prestress levels, but the maximum loads of specimens strengthened with prestressed CFRP plates were insignificantly affected by the prestress levels.

Both strength and stiffness of RC structures strengthened by a steel plate greatly increase and however, their ductility might not be sufficient because premature failures usually occur at the adhesive-concrete interface. In this study, Mohr-Coulomb criterion was adopted to examine the bonding failure mechanism, and the diagonal shear bonding test, the direct shear bonding test, and the flexural test on RC beams strengthened by a steel plate were carried out to measure the bonding properties. It is found from the experimental and numerical results that the cohesive strengths of epoxy-concrete interfaces are ranging from 50 kgf/㎠ to 70 kgf/㎠ when the friction angle is 45°. Bonding failure loads can be predicted by applying the bonding properties to the structural analysis of RC beams strengthened by steel plate. By considering them in the design of strengthened beams, the premature failure would be effectively prevented.

골수염은 조기에 적절한 치료를 하지않으면 중대한 후유증이 초래되므로 신속한 진단과 치료가 요구된다. 골수염을 진단하기 위해서는 구강검진, 방사선검사, 병리조직학적 검사, 혈액 및 세균배양검사와 골스캔등이 필요하다. 골수염의 감염과정은 골에 파괴적 및 재생적 변화의 양자를 모두 일으키지만 X선사진소견에서는 임상증상이 발현된 후 약 10내지 14일이 경과되어야만 골변화를 관찰할 수 있으며 그 이전에는 대체로 비특이적 연조직의 종창만을 보인단. 반면에 골스캔을 이용하면 급성염증기의 골질환을 감견하기가 용이하다. 골스캔제의 국소골섭취의 증가는 골의 어떤 부위에서 대사능이나 혈류가 증가된 경우에 일어나기 때문에, 실제로 임상증상이 발현된 후 24시간정도의 조기에 골스캔상은 양성반응을 보인다. 즉 골의 국소적 병변은 어느정도 신생골 형성과 골파괴가 같이 수반되어있고 이러한 신생골은 골스캔제와 친화력이 강하므로 골형성반응을 야기하는 어떠한 병변이라도 골스캔에 의하여 발견될 수 있다. 임상적으로 골수염에 대하여 골스캔을 시행하는 경우는 골수염의 조기진단, 골수염과 봉와직염과의 감별진단, 만성 공수염의 악화여부 및 치료에 대한 반응을 monitoring하기 위해서 시행된다.

RC beam of existing structures often encounter shear problems for various reasons. The shear failure of RC beam is sudden and brittle. Strengthening technique jacketing with external bonding of steel plates(or CFRP and CFS) with epoxy is many use to in practice. This study presents test results on strengthening shear deficient RC beams by external bonding of slit type steel plates. Test parameters are width, interval, length, thickness and angle of slit in steel plates. The purpose was to evaluate the reinforcing effects, failure modes and shear capacities for RC beams of strengthened with various slit type steel plates. The test result confirmed that all slit steel plates improved the stiffness and strength of the specimens significantly. Failure modes of SV series and SD series showed shear fractures and flexure fractures at ultimate state respectively. SD series were ductile rather than SV series.

FRP는 비부식성 및 고강도의 뛰어난 성질에도 불구하고 콘크리트 구조에 사용하는 데 있어서 소성의 결핍 및 낮은 전단강도와 같은 몇가지의 기술적인 단점을 가지고 있다. 특히 이 두가지 성질은 프리스트레스트 콘크리트보에 있어서 다우얼 작용이 일어나는 전단균열 단면에서와 같이 인장과 전단의 복합효과가 일어날 때 텐던의 조기 파괴를 일으키기 쉽다. 본 논문에서는 탄소 FRP연선을 사용한 프리스트레스트 콘크리트보에서의 텐던파열에 의한 전단파괴를 연구하였다. 전단시험 결과에 의하면 전단 텐던 파괴는 FRP를사용한 프리스트레스트 보에서만 일어나는 유일한 파괴형식으로 보의 전단강도를 저감시키는 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 전단 텐던 파괴 과정을 규명하기 위하여 다우얼 시험을 실시하고 최초로 실용적인 시험장치 및 과정을 소개하였다. 다우얼 시험 결과에 의하면 FRP 연선은 인장과 전단의 상호작용에 의해 Tsai-Hill 파괴 기준에 따라 파괴되었다.

Bonded CFRP Plate method used murk in reinforcement method is very efficient for stress increment of reinforced members. But CFRP plate dosen't display enough its capacity and have the destruction characteristic of premature failure that reach failure by debond plate, because near-surface-bond using epoxy. Such destruction character of reinforced specimens take the influence at variables as steel reinforcement ratio, concrete strength, kind of reinforcement materials, reinforced length, property of epoxy used in binder and so on. In this study, performed experiment results are compared and considered on flexural performance of Near Surface Mounted Reinforcement used CFRP-Rod, as complement about structural behavior of RC beam reinforced flexural capacity in CFRP plate and premature failure of reinforcement material. Main variables of RC beam applied CFRP Plate external bond method are experimental variables as reinforcement length, reinforcement position (tension face and side face of beam) and existence of ironware in end parts. In case of CFRP-Rod, variable is reinforcement length.

Rehabilitations of reinforced concrete(RC) structures using advanced fibre-reinfored plastic(FRP) composites has become very popular in last few years. Typical method of strengthening strategy using FRP composite is bonding the CFRP plate or sheet on the surface of existing concrete structures. Many researches, however, have shown that bonding FRP plate or sheet on the surface of concrete has tendancy to debond prematurely induced by stress concentrations at the end of the plate. In order for overcoming the premature failure, the filling-up method which places FRP-rod into the existing concrete sawing groove has been developed. Through filling-up test results, aims of this research is to investigate the efficiencies of the filling-up method and is to determine the availabilities of traditional flexural theories that has provided all over the world.

Recently FRP (Fiber Reinforcement Polymer) is widely used for the strengthening of damaged RC beams. Although many tests were carried out to verify flexural capacity of RC beams strengthened with FRP sheet or plate, the behavior of strengthened RC beams has not yet clearly verified. To investigate the strengthening efficiency of the Near Surface Mounted Reinforcement (NSMR) technique experimentally and analytically, a total of 7 specimens have been tested. The experimental results revealed that specimens strengthened with NSMR improved the flexural capacity of RC beams. Also, while the NSMR specimens utilized CFRP reinforcement efficiently compared to the EBR (Externally Bonded Reinforcement) specimen, the NSMR specimens still have debonding failure between epoxy and concrete interface. This study has proposed the model to predict failure modes and failure loads. Good agreement was obtained between the predicted and the experimental results.
