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 $jv_u=(2.935{\times}10-3\;{\rho}jw{\cdot}fy\;+\;0.365){\sqrt{f_{ck}}}$

When the behavior of a prototype concrete structure is studied through small-scale model experiments, it is necessary to reproduce all significant physical characteristics on either an one-to-one basis or a specific similitude relationship. Any distortion of similitude must be understood and its effect must be predictable. This paper focuses on improved physical modeling techniques for small-scale reinforced concrete structures. Particular emphasis is placed on the development of a model concrete mix to accurately model the important properties of full-scale prototype concrete. Four types of model reinforcement with different bond characteristics are also studied by testing twenty simple beams. The information obtained will be of immediate use to engineers contemplating small-scale modeling of reinforced concrete structures.

이 논문에서는 패널, 깊은 보 그리고 전단벽과 같이 평면응력상태하에 있는 철근콘크리트 구조물의 비선형 유한요소해석에 있어서의 직교이방성 콘크리트 구성 모델의 적용성을 보여준다. 등가의 일축 변형을 개념을 토대로 콘크리트의 구성 관계가 주변형률 축과 일치하고 하중이력에 따라 회전하는 직교하는 축에 대해 제시된다. 제안된 모델은 이축 압축응력상태와 인장-압축 응력상태에서 각각 압축강도의 증가와 인장 저항력의 감소효과를 보여주는 이축 파괴영역의 정의를 포함한다. 인장균열이 발생한 후, 콘크리트의 압축강도의 감소효과가 제시되고, 인장강화효과로 알려진 철근에 의해 지지되는 콘크리트의 인장응력이 고려된다. 평균응력과 평균변형률 개념을 사용하여 힘의 평형, 적합조건 그리고 철근과 철근을 둘러싼 콘크리트 사이의 부착응력-슬림 관계를 토대로 인장강화효과를 모사하기 위한 모델이 제안된다. 유한요소 모델에 의한 예측은 유용한 실험자료와의 비교에 의해 입증된다. 이 논문에서는 해석결과와 이상화한 전단 패널실험으로부터 얻어진 실험값의 비교연구가 수행되고, 제안된 모델의 타당성을 보여주기 위해 서로 다른 응력상태하의 전단 패널 보와 벽체의 힘-변위 관계를 평가하였다.

In this paper the method for repair LCC evaluation of reinforced concrete structures deteriorated by chloride attack was constructed. Also, the FEM analysis for chloride ion penetration into concrete was conducted to evaluate the repair LCC which was decided by the number of repair times including early stages of construction and repair construction during the service life of structures. As a result, the number of repair times is obtained from the comparing the concentration of the chloride ion in a rebar position, and the critical chloride ion concentration of rebar corrosion through the FEM analysis considering the kind of repair materials and methods. Also, the repair LCC could be calculated by the number of repair times during the service life of structures.

Corrosion products of reinforcement in concrete induce pressure to the adjacent concrete due to the expansion of steel. This expansion causes tensile stresses around the reinforcing bar and eventually induces cracking through the concrete cover The cracking of concrete cover will adversely affect the safety as well as the service life of concrete structures. The purpose of the this study is to examine the critical corrosion amount which causes the cracking of concrete cover. To this end, a comprehensive experimental and theoretical study has been conducted. Major test variables include concrete strength and cover thickness. The strains at the surface of concrete cover have been measured according to the amount of steel corrosion. The corrosion products which penetrate into the pores and cracks around the steel bar have been considered in the calculation of expansive pressure due to steel corrosion. The present study indicates that the critical amount of corrosion, which causes the initiation of cracking, increases with an increase of compressive strength. A realistic relation between the expansive pressure and average strain of corrosion product layer in the corrosion region has been derived and the representative stiffness of corrosion layer was determined. A concept of pressure-free strain of corrosion product layer was introduced to explain the relation between the expansive pressure and corrosion strain. The proposed theory agrees well with experimental data and may be a good base for the realistic durability design of concrete structures.

Korea Infrastructure Safety and Technology Corporation (KISTEC) specifies that the safety inspection and precise safety diagnosis of concrete structures shall be conducted in accordance with the 'Special Law on Safety Management of Infrastructure'. The detailed safety inspection and precise safety diagnosis guidelines presented by KISTEC, however, gives only the grade of members and structures, and thus it is impossible to quantify remaining service life (RSL) of the structures and to quantitatively reflect the effect of differential settlements on the RSL. Therefore, this study aims to develop a RSL evaluation model considering the differential settlements. To this end, a simple equation was proposed based on the correlations between differential settlements and angular distortion, by which the angular distortion of structures was then reflected in nominal strengths of structural members. In addition, the effects of the differential settlements on the RSL of structures were analyzed in detail by using the safety diagnosis results of actual concrete structure.

This paper presents the characteristics of flexural behavior of RC beam strengthened with CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer Plate). Experimental variables included the strengthening length, width, reinforcement ratio, end anchorage and preloading corresponding to 75 percent of ultimate capacity and the effects according to each experimental variables were analyzed. To study, a total 21 RC beams were constructed, tested and the response of the beams in terms of ultimate load, deflection, strain of CFRP, failure mode were examined.
