The effect of concrete strength on shear cracking strength in reinforced concrete beams is investigated analytically. The quantitative response of reinforced concrete beam-end-part with varing concrete stiffness, which is a function of concrete compressive strength, is examined utilizing a finite element mothod. The result indicates that the severer shear stress localization/concentration takes place in the beam having higher concrete strength. Thus the increase ratio of shear cracking strength with respect to concrete compressive strength decreases as the concrete strength becoms higher.

The effect of reinforcing bars embedded in concrete varies depending on the position of the electrode in the electrical resistivity measurement. In this study, the apparent resistivity according to the electrode arrangement is analyzed for each measurement angle. Through this, it is intended to be used to improve the accuracy of measurement in the concrete resistivity.

The current analytical techniques for R/C elements under severe dynamic repeated loads, like earth¬quake or impact, have two major problems; one is that the effects of strain rate are not considered and the other one is the current analytical model was developed based on flexural behavior only. This study develops computer software that can idealize the flexural and shear behavior of R/C elements using several parameters and also can consider the effects of strain rate. The analytical results using the developed technique were compared with serveral experimental results and they were generally satisfied.

일반적으로 동일한 배합에서 콘크리트의 강도를 증진시키는 방법중에서 혼화재를 넣는 방법이 일반적이다. 이는 첨가된 혼화재의 양만큼 생산비용이 증가하며, 본 실험에서 콘크리트 강도를 증진시키기 위해 사용한 자화수는 자석을 통과시켜 만든 물이며 제작방법 이 매우 간편하고 자석이라는 비소모성 및 무동력의 장치를 사용하여, 또한 화학물질을 사 용하지 않고 얻을 수 있다. 이때의 자화수는 외관상으로는 보통물과 아무런 차이가 없으며 무색무취이다. 즉 강력한 자장속에 보통 물을 통과시켜서 이온화된 자화수를 얻을 수 있을 것이다. 실례로 러시아 "샤프스쿠스크" 철근 콘크리트 제품공장에서는 자화수를 사용해서 매년 약 15%의 시멘트절약에 성공하고 있고, 모스크바의 철근콘크리트연구소에서 자주 자 화수의 전문회의가 열리며, 매번 좋은 결과를 서로 보고하고 있다고 한다. 본 실험에서는 자 화수에 의한 강도증진효과를 보기 위해서 동일배합에서 보통물과 자화수를 배합수로 하여 각각의 콘크리트 공시체를 제작해 압축강도를 비교하였다. 그 결과 보통물을 사용해 제작한 공시체 보다 4~13% 가량 강도증진효과를 보았다. 따라서 다른 혼화재를 사용하지 않고 오 직 자화수를 배합수로 하여 제작된 콘크리트 강도를 높임으로써, 동일한 배합강도를 얻기 위해서 보통물을 배합수로 제작된 콘크리트에 비해 시멘트 사용량을 줄일 수 있어 이에 따 른 경제적 효과를 얻을 수 있다고 본다. 이에 따라 본 연구는 여러 가지변수에 따라 자화수 가 콘크리트 강도증진에 어떠한 영향을 주는지를 알아보았다.는지를 알아보았다.

Three interior slab-column connections designed by equal static moments and by different distribution of end and midspan moments were tested. Each test specimen consists of a 4.2 m square slab and a 355 mm square column stub. The slab thickness is 152 mm. Test results showed not only that flat plate systems can undergo considerable redistribution of moments from the uncracked state to final maximum capacity, but also that the distribution of moments is controlled largely by the distribution of reinforcement adopted by the designer. Tests also indicated that the punching shear strength of slabs can be affected by the redistributed moments.

An enhanced version of the Roufaiel and Meyer model is developed for the simulation of the hysteretic response of reinforced concrete members. This model takes into account the finite size of plastic regions and considers the effects of stiffness degradation, strength deterioration, shear and axial force. A significant improvement is the way in which strength deterioration is simulated during inelastic cyclic loadings. The accuracy of this model has been demonstrated by analytically reproducing numerous laboratory experimental load-deformation curves.

Flash butt welding is applied in many industries. New technology was developed recently for joining billets which called "EBROS (Endless Bar Rolling System)". After reheating billets in furnace, two billets were joined using flash butt welding. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of alloying elements on mechanical properties of flash butt welded zone of hot rolled steel bar. The tensile properties on welded zone of Fe-Mn steel and Fe-Mn-V steel were dropped as compared with non-welded zone. Fe-Mn-Nb steel was opposed to the former. It was found that the white band at the welded zone had high ferrite volume fraction and large ferrite grain size. The vertical white band between flash butt welded billets was transformed into an arrowhead it of steel bar. According to this band, softening has been appeared. There was a interesting phenomenon with HAZ of Fe-Mn-Nb Steel, 40nm scale of particles were observed and hardness of HAZ was higher than non-welded zone.

The effect of the steel ratio on the behavior of continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) under moving wheel loads and environmental loads were investigated in this study. The CRCP sections having different steel ratios of 0.6, 0.7, and 0.8% were considered: (1) to evaluate the load transfer efficiency (LTE) at transverse cracks; (2) to investigate strains in CRCP when the system is subjected to moving vehicle loads; (3) and to investigate the time histories of the crack spacing variations. The LTEs were obtained by conducting the falling weight deflectometer (FWD) tests. The strains in the concrete slab and the bond braker layer under moving vehicle loads were obtained using embedded strain gages. The results of this study show that the LTEs at transverse cracks are very high and not affected by the steel ratio. The strains in CRCP under vehicle loads become smaller as the vehicle speed increases or as the wandering distance increases; however, the strains are not clearly affected by the steel ratio. However, the changes in the crack spacings are affected by the steel ratio.

Current design codes regarding compression lap splice dose not utilize merits of the improved strength of ultra-high strength concrete. Especially, a compression lap splice can be calculated longer than a tension lap splice according to the codes because they do not consider effects of strength of concrete and transverse reinforcement. Design equation is proposed for compression lap splice in 40 to 70 MPa of compressive strength of concrete. The proposed equation is based on 51 specimens. Through two-variable non-linear regression analysis of measured splice strengths, a splice strength equation is derived, which is converted into a splice length equation.

In this paper, systematic analyses for the shoring systems installed to support applied loads during construction are performed on the basis of the numerical approach introduced in the previous study. Structural behaviors require changes in design variables such as types of shoring systems, shore stiffness and shore spacing. In this paper, the design variable are analyzed and discussed. The time dependent deformations of concrete and construction sequences of frame structures are also taken into account to minimize structural instability and to improve design of shoring system, because those effects may increase axial forces delivered to shores. From many parametric studies, it can be recommended that the most effective shoring system is 2SlR(two shores and one reshore)
