This study aimed to develop a Structural Health Monitoring System for steel beams in the manner of suggesting and verifying a theoretical formula for displacement estimation using strain gauges, and estimating the loading points and magnitude. According to the results of this study, it was found that when a load of 160kN (56% of the yield load) was applied, the error rate of the deflection obtained with a strain gauge at the point of maximum deflection compared to the deflection measured with a displacement meter was within 2%, and that the estimates of the magnitude and points of load application also showed the error rate of not more than 1%. This suggests that the displacement and load of steel beams can be measured with strain gauges and further, it will enable more cost-effective sensor designing without displacement meter or load cell. The Structural Health Monitoring System program implemented in Lab VIEW gave graded warnings whenever the measured data exceeds the specified range (strength limit state, serviceability limit state, yield strain), and both the serviceability limit state and strength limit state could be simultaneously monitored with strain gauge alone.

본 연구에서는 표면부를 에폭시 폴리머 모르터로 하고 , 중심부를 발포 폴리스티렌으로 하는샌드위치 패널을 제조하여, 표면부를 용접철강으로 보강한 경우와 보강하지 않은 경우에 대하여 4강 단순지지 조건에서의 정적 차 통해 하중-처짐, 휨모멘트-변형률, 파괴양상 등을 구명하였다. 단위중량, 극한가중, 휨모멘트는 중심부의 두께보다 표면부 두께에 더 큰 영향을 받으며 극한처짐은 보강안된 경우 표면부 보다 중심부 두께의 영향이 월등히 컸으마 보당된 경우는 표면부나 중심부 두께의 영향이 비슷하였다. 그러나 용접철망의 보강은 샌드위치 패널의 처짐억제 보다 인성증가에 기여도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 샌드위치 패널의 파괴양상은 보강하지 않은 경우 선형파괴가 일어난데 비해 보강한 경우에는 방사상의 파괴가 일어났다.

이상에서 potential energy의 극소조건을 각종경우에 적용하여 재료역학의 해 또는 변형의 근사 해를 응용 예들을 통하여 구해 보았다. 이 해법은 을 받은 부재, 보(beam) 또는 순수 비틀림을 받는 엔형봉재의 경우, 부정정 문제에서 그 지지점들에서의 반력요소를 생각할 필요가 없기 때 문에 재료 역학적인 해법보다 더 간편하게 구해지고 있는 것을 볼 수가 있다. 또 보의 처짐 곡 선이 길이의 중앙면에 대하여 좌우 대칭형일 때에, 중앙단면에서의 최대처짐을 구하는데 삼각 함수의 근사처짐 곡선을 설정하므로써 실제 엄밀해에 가까운 근사값이 간단하게 구해질 수 있는 것을 보였다. 이 극소에너지 정리는 엔형단면이 아닌 각종 단면봉재의 비틀림 문제에서도 비틀림 응력함수를 도입하고, 경제조전을 만족하는 근사공력 함수방정식을 가정함으로써 간단하게 그 근사해를 구하는 데까지 직장할 수가 있다.

When cracks occur in reinforced concrete structures, a steel carries all tensile force at crack section, while the concrete between cracks carries a part of the tensile force due to bond, so that the steel is less elongated. This is called the tension-stiffening effect, that plays an important role in verification of a serviceability limit state. But it is a complicated work to use a complex strain distribution between cracks, therefore an average strain is used to calculate deflection and crack width. In Eurocode 2, tension-stiffening effect expressed in the first order form or the second order form is used in calculating an average curvature for deflection. In this study for a flexural member deflection and crack width are calculated using various models for the tension-stiffening effect and the results are compared with the values of Eurocode 2 and KCI provisions. As results, the predicted values using the second order form are appeared to be well agreed with the experimental values and it could secure more analytical consistency.

Experimental and analytical studies are performed on the mechanical behavior of concrete-filled tubular(CFT) truss girders for different f/L ratios. Bending tests are conducted on two CFT truss girder specimens to determine fundamental structural characteristics such as the strength and deformation properties. Nonlinear material models for CFT members subjected to an axial compressive force are compared in this paper by using the nonlinear finite element program, ABAQUS. Previous researchers have proposed several nonlinear stress-strain models of confined concrete. In this study, the nonlinear analyses are performed applying several stress-strain models for confined concrete proposed by Mander, Sakino, Han, Susantha and Ellobody, and the results are compared with the experimental results in terms of load-deflection and load-strain relationships. Based on the comparisons of the load-deflection relationships, the models proposed by Mander and Susantha provide a maximum load about 12.0~13.8% higher and that by Sakino gives a maximum load about 7.6% higher than the experimental results. The models proposed by Han and Ellobody give a maximum load only about 0.2~1.2% higher than the test results, showing the best agreement among the proposed stress-strain models. However, the load-strain relations predicted by the existing models generally provide conservative results exhibiting larger strains than the experimental data.

The study for curling control of plain concrete in underground parking lot was conducted in this study. The shrinkage reducing agent(SRA) was used to minimize the curling deformation of plain concrete in underground parking lot. For the quantitative curling control, the simplified prediction method applying the deflection theory of cantilever beam was proposed too, and the validity of prediction method was examined through the comparison between the experimental values and predictive values. In result, the curling of SRA 1.0% concrete was about 30% less than that of SRA 0.0% concrete, and the possibility of curling estimation by the simplified prediction method was confirmed through the comparison between the experimental values and predictive values.

This paper presents a preliminary study to monitor the lateral behavior of pile foundation using multiplexed fiber Bragg grating(FBG) sensors. In the Preliminary study, an 1.7 meter long cantilever beam with the shape of square hollow box was fabricated and tested under the static loading. Four FBG sensors were multiplexed in a single optical fiber and installed into the top and bottom of the cantilever beam. The strains are directly measured from FBG sensors followed by curvature calculations based on the plane section assumption. Vertical deflections are then estimated using the regression analyses based on the geometric relationships. It has been found that excellent correlation with conventional sensing system was observed. The success of the test encourages the use of the FBG sensing system as a monitoring system for pile foundations. However, further consideration should be given in the case of the sensor malfunction for the practical purpose.

An analytical method to predict the time dependent flexural behavior of composite girder is presented based on sectional analysis. The time dependent constitutive relation accounting for the early-age concrete properties including maturing of elastic modulus, creep and shrinkage is derived in an incremental format by the first order Taylor series expansion. The sectional analysis calculates the axial and curvature strains based on the force and moment equilibriums. The deflection curve of the girder approximated by the quadratic polynomial function is calculated by applying to the proper boundary conditions in the consecutive segments. Numerical applications are made for the 3-span double composite steel box girder which is a composite bridge girder filled with concrete at the bottom of the steel box in the negative moment region. The calculated results are compared with those by finite element analysis results. Close agreement is observed between the two approaches.

Deflection in terms of serviceability of reinforced concrete structures is considered as one of significant factor. Domestic concrete specification offers a procedure to evaluate deflection using effective moment of inertia at cracked section, which has been known as Branson's equation in ACI. Branson's equation was derived from statistical analysis of maximum deflection of flexural members, but is somewhat weak in no reflection of bond characteristics between reinforced bars and concrete, such as tension stiffening effect. Therefore, present code creates difference from actual deflection. In this study, experiments about deflection of RC beams was completed to compare domestic standard and Eurocode 2, which calculates deflection considering tension stiffening effect. Four RC beams were built and tested, and initial modulus of elasticity and tensile strength of concrete used in the test was calculated by each design standard.
