In this study, experimental research was carried out to evaluate steel reinforced ECC (Engineered Cementitious Composites) column, which exhibits excellent crack control property and highly ductile behavior. Ordinary portland cement and high volume fly ash were used as binding materials in the mixture proportions for the purpose of achieving a high level of multiple cracking property with the tightly controlled crack width. To compare with the cyclic behavior of steel reinforced ECC column specimen, a conventional reinforced concrete column was prepared and tested under reversed cyclic loading condition. Based on the cyclic load test, ECC column exhibited higher cyclic behavior, compared to the conventional RC column, in terms of load carrying capacity and energy dissipation capacity.

Thin bonded continuously reinforced concrete overlay(CRCO) was constructed on He existing jointed plain concrete pavement(HCP) surface at Seo-Hae-Ahn express highway in South Korea in order to evaluate its applicability and performance. Two sections of road were considered for this evaluation. In the first section, the concrete overlayer was placed and cut down to the existing layer to form transverse joints while CRCO was constructed on top of the existing layer in the second section. Early strength concrete(Type III) was utilized for both overlay sections. The depth of milling and the thickness of overlaid layer were 5 cm and 10 cm, respectively. Several vibrating wire gauges(VWG) were installed to evaluate the performance of CRCO with respect to curling, delamination, and crack propagation. As a result of the strength test, it was found that strength of the material reaches the design criteria within 1-3 days. Analysis with vibrating wire gauge(VWG) showed CRCO effectively restricts joint movement. High adhesive strength also was observed from the material regardless of length of aging. Meanwhile, transverse cracks were observed on the middle of the section where JPCP overlay was applied whereas arbitrarily cracks in transverse direction were observed on the section where CRCP was applied.

오염원과 취수장이 동일 구간 내에 공존하는 국내하천의 특성상, 하천 평면 내에서 오염물의 거동 및 혼합 특성을 보다 정확하게 해석하기 위해서는 2차원 이송-분산 모형의 적용이 필요하다. 이를 위해서는 2차원 모형의 주요 매개변수인 종분산계수와 횡분산계수의 적절한 입력이 매우 중요하다. 하지만 국내외적으로 횡분산계수에 대한 연구는 많이 진행된 반면, 현재까지 종분산계수에 대한 연구는 충분히 이루어지지 않은 실정이다. 분산계수를 결정하는 방법에는 실측된 농도 자료의 유무에 따라 크게 두 가지로 분류된다. 실측된 농도 자료가 없는 경우, 이론식이나 경험식을 이용하는 방법이 있다. 반면에 추적자 실험 등을 수행하여 실측된 농도 자료가 있는 경우, 모멘트법 또는 추적법을 적용하여 농도-시간 분포 곡선으로부터 분산계수를 계산하는 것이다. 모멘트법은 임의 지점에서 농도의 횡분포를 통해 얻을 수 있는 2차 모멘트의 종방향 변화율이 횡분산계수와 비례한다는 원리를 이용한 것이며, 추적법은 상류부의 관측된 농도를 입력자료로 하여 하류부의 농도를 계산한 후 계산된 농도와 실측된 하류부 농도의 비교를 통해 분산계수를 산정하는 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 불규칙한 단면 형상을 가지는 자연하천에서의 2차원 종 횡분산계수를 산정하기 위해서 Baek & Seo(2010)가 제안한 2차원 유관추적법(2D Stream-tube Routing Procedure)을 적용하였다. 본 연구에서는 국내 자연하천 중 다양한 사행형태를 갖으며 수질오염 사고의 위험이 높은 구간을 선정하고, 추적자로서 Rhodamine WT를 이용하여 현장실험을 수행하였다. 실험에서 수집된 수리량 및 농도자료로부터 추적자의 2차원적 거동을 분석하였으며, 2차원 유관추적법을 적용하여 종분산계수를 산정하였다. 그 결과 하폭 대 수심비(W/H)와 마찰손실관련 무차원변수(U/U*)의 증가에 따라 종분산계수가 증가됨을 확인 할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 산출된 종분산계수와 선행 연구에서 수집된 자료를 이용하여 추정식을 개발하였다. 차원해석을 통해 무차원 종분산계수에 영향을 미치는 무차원 인자를 선별하고 회귀분석을 이용하여 종분산계수 추정식을 유도하였다. 추정식을 이용하여 산정한 종분산계수의 범위는 Elder (1959)가 제안한 이론값보다 약 10배 정도로 크게 나타났다. 혼합 특성이 밝혀지지 않은 자연하천에 2차원 확산모형을 적용하고자 할 때 본 연구에서 개발된 추정식으로부터 계산된 종분산계수를 사용할 수 있을 것이다.

In locations where the cost of concrete is relatively high or in situations where the weight of concrete members has to be kept to a minimum, it may be more economical to use hollow reinforced concrete vertic al members. Hollow reinforced concrete colun-ms with a low axial load, a moderate longitudinal steel percentage and a reasonably thick wall were found to perform in a ductile manner at the flexural strength, similar to solid columns. Hollow reinforced concrete columns with a high axial load, a high longitudinal steel percentage, and a thin wall were found, however, to behave in a brittle manner at the flexural strength, since the neutral axis is forced to occur away from the inside face of the tube towards the section centroid and, as a result, crushing of concrete occurs near the unconfined inside face of the section. If, however, a steel tube is placed near the inside face of a circular hollow column, the column can be expected not to fail in a brittle manner through the disintegration of the concrete in the compression zone. A design recommendation and example through the moment-curvature analysis program for curvature ductility are herein presented. A theoretical moment-curvature analysis for reinforced concrete columns, indicating the available flexural strength and ductility, can be conducted, providing that the stress-strain relation for the concrete and steel are known. In this paper, a unified stress-stain model for confined concrete by Mander is developed foi members with circular sections.

The selection of the support system is an important design parameter in design and construction of the tunnel using the new Australian tunnel method. It is a common practice to select the support based on the rock mass grade, in which the rock mass is classified into five rock groups. The method is applicable if the characteristics of the rock mass are uniform in the direction of tunnel excavation. However, such case is seldom encountered in practice and not applicable when the properties vary along the longitudinal direction. This study performs comprehensive three dimensional finite difference analyses to investigate the ground deformation pattern for cases in which the rock mass properties change in the direction of the tunnel axis. The numerically calculated displacements at the tunnel crown show that the displacement is highly dependent on the stiffness contrast of the rock masses. The results strongly indicate the need to select the support type $0.5{\sim}1.0D$ before the rock mass boundary. The paper proposes a new guideline for selecting the support type based the results of the analyses.

The behavior of the ground in crossed zone due to the excavation of new lower tunnel rectangularly crossed to that was studied by model tests and numerical analysis in shallow cover. Results of the model tests show that earth pressure of the ground in crossed zone were redistributed due to the longitudinal arching effect by the excavation of lower tunnel. By the numerical analysis, minimum principal stress in crown of single tunnel has more decrease than parallel tunnel or crossed tunnel. Vertical stress at rectangularly crossed tunnel decrease more than single tunnel by stress shadow.

This study pertains to damping device to reduce vibrational responses and shocks in multi-directions. To enhance the capability of disk spring damper which works for vertical vibration and shock, a multi-directional damper is proposed, which contains wedge system as well as disk spring stack. Wedge system converts horizontal load into vertical load. A mathematical model is proposed and investigated for the nonlinear behaviors of the disc spring damper containing wedge system. The results accord with the experimental results. Equivalent viscous damping in vertical and horizontal directions are found based upon energy dissipated.

The two dimensional behaviors of the existing upper tunnel and the ground at crossed area due to the excavation of a lower tunnel were studied experimentally, The model tests were conducted by changing the relative location of the existing upper tunnel and the lower tunnel. The results of the study show that a vertical earth pressure outside the loosened area was increased due to longitudinal arching effect same as a single tunnel. In case vertical distance between the upper and lower tunnel is 0.7 H and 1.0 H respectively (H is a height of the lower tunnel), vertical earth pressure increased in the loosened area behind the tunnel face. But when a vertical distance is 1, 3 H, ground behaviors appeared similarly to a single tunnel.

The object of this study is to propose a rate of vibration increase in the analysis of temporary rail non-fixed in the vertical direction and characterize the nonlinear dynamic behavior of temporary rail while considering longitudinal and latitudinal load, vibration and lifting. The rate of vibration increase is proposed through measurement of an actual structure that is largely affected by loading and vibration of the superstructure. Dynamic behavior was additionally characterized by the dynamic response resulting from nonlinear dynamic finite element analysis with vehicle loading, including the rate of vibration increase. As a result, the rate of vibration increase by the vibration of an Auto Bar Machine is determined as 7% and the maximum stress in the analysis of the nonlinear rail is increased 14.5% over that of linear rail, and temporary rail is shown to be very sensitive to the velocity of the superstructure.
