선박의 구조설계단계에서 최종붕괴강도를 설계기준으로 삼는 경우는 거의 없으나 최근에 각국 선급에서 최종붕괴강도를 의무적인 설계기준으로 삼기 위해 자체적인 해석법과 설계식을 제시 하고 규정화하는 작업을 진행시키고 있다. [12, 17, 31, 32]. 1994년 ISSC [1]에서도 토론된바와 같이 특히 새로운 구조방식을 가진 선박의 합리적인 구조설계를 위하여는 해상플렛폼의 구조설 계시와 마찬가지로 삼아야 할 것이다. 본고에서는 선각거더의 최종붕괴강도에 대한 해석법과 간이계산식에 관한 연구동향을 문헌조사를 통하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 순수굽힘모멘트가 작용 하는 문제의 경우 최종붕괴강도 해석법은 어느정도 확립되었다고 판단되지만 최종붕괴강도의 간이계산식은 아직도 정도 등의 면에서 개선의 여지가 남아 있다고 생각된다. 앞으로 순수 굽 힘모멘트뿐만아니라 조합하중을 받는 경우와 피로균열을 비롯한 초기구조손상을 가진 노후화된 선박에 대한 최종붕괴강도를 보다 정밀하게 해석하기 위한 해석법의 개발과 간이계산식의 도 출이 필요하다고 사료된다. 또한, 충돌, 좌초, 폭발 등에 기인된 선각거더의 붕괴강도 평가를 위한 해석법의 개발도 앞으로 남은 과제중의 하나이다.

Two octagonal RC bridge columns of small scale model were tested under cyclic lateral load with constant axial load. One in two specimens was solid cross section, the other was hollow cross section. The volumetric ratio of transverse spiral hoop of all specimens is 0.00206. The columns showed flexure-shear failure. Failure behavior and seismic performance were investigated. The test results showed that the structural performance of the hollow specimen such as initial crack pattern, initial stiffness, and energy dissipation performance was comparable to that of the solid specimen, but the lateral strength, ultimate displacement, energy dissipation performance of hollow specimen noticeably decreased after drift ratio of 3%.

Joint spacing is a potent influence in increasing the long term performance of jointed concrete pavement slabs through the control of tensile stress, sealant failure and Load Transfer Efficiency (LTE). Internal Joint Spacing is an empirical and fixed method therefore this study will present the optimum joint spacing considerations depending on various climactic conditions. Calculating the optimum joint spacing eliminates random cracking due to the effect of the environmental loads such as the early behavior of drying shrinkage and heat hydration. Optimum joint spacing is calculated so as not to cause pavement distress by the deterioration of LTE by long term pavement movement. This study shows that the provisional joint spacing is 6-8m. Pavement Distress Prediction Models show that pavement distress has no effect on joint spacing of 8m.

This study investigates experimentally flexural behavior and CFB(Carbon Fiber Bar) reinforcing effects of timber sleeper in traditional storied tower house. As a test result, standard sleepers without CFB(Carbon Fiber Bar) reinforcement show flexural cracks at the bottom member at the beginning of loading stage and leads to fracture. However, reinforced specimens with CFB show initial shrinkage at the upper part of specimen by compression, instead of flexural cracks at the bottom, and finally show compressive failure or fracture after failure of CFB and it proves that reinforcing effects by CFB are exerted from early loading. Reinforced specimens showed higher strength in yield strength by 6%~38%, and ultimate strength by 8%~17%, than those of standard specimens. Reinforced specimen is considered that specimen with flexural reinforcement using CFB can expect flexural deflection control effect. Reinforced specimen shows higher ductile coefficient increase of average 141% compared than standard specimens and it proves that higher structural ductile behavior can be expected in reinforced specimens.

The applicability of headed bars in exterior beam-column joints under reversed cyclic loading was investigated. A total of ten pullout tests were first performed to examine pullout behavior of headed bars subjected to monotonic and cyclic loading with test variables such as connection type between head and bar stem (weld or no weld), loading methods (monotonic or cyclic loading), and head shape (small or large circular head and square head). Two full-scale beam-column joint tests were then performed to compare the structural behavior of exterior beam-column joints constructed using two different reinforcement details: i.e. $90^{\circ}$ standard hooks and headed bars. Both joints were designed following the recommendations of ACI-ASCE Committee 352 for Type 2 performance: i.e. the connection is required to dissipate energy through reversals of deformation into inelastic range. The pullout test results revealed that welded head to the stem did not necessarily result in increased pullout strength when compared to non-welded head. Relatively large circular head resulted in higher peak load than smaller circular and square head. Both beam-column joints with conventional $90^{\circ}$ hooks and headed bars behaved similarly in terms of crack development, hysteresis curves, and peak strengths. The joint using the headed bars showed better overall structural performance in terms of ductility, deformation capacity, and energy dissipation. These experimental results demonstrate that the headed bars using relatively small head can be properly designed far use in external beam-column joint.

Cracks due to low tensile strength in prestressed concrete (PC) beams may decrease rigidity and structural performance, resulting in excessive deflection. In an effort to solve this problem, in this research, prestressed dual concrete (PDC) has been proposed, consisting of normal strength concrete in compression zone, and high performance steel fiber reinforced concrete(HPSFRC) with a partial depth in tensile zone. Three PDC beams with different depths of HPSFRC and two PC beams were cast for experiments. Analytical models at each stage, i.e., precracking, postcracking, and ultimate, were proposed for analysis of flexural behavior in PDC beams. The experimental results agree well to the analytical ones. Crack formation and its propagation are controlled by the HPSFRC in PDC beams. The initial cracking and service limit loads are increased along with the load carrying capacity and flexural stiffness.

The biaxial tensile strength of concretes was measured by the Biaxial Flexure Test(BFT) which was recently developed to measure the biaxial tensile strength of concretes. From the test result, The circular specimen is generally fractured after 1${\sim}$3 of the initial crack were formed on the top of specimen. The direction and number of the initial crack was completely arbitrary. As the specimen was larger, the number of the crack increased. And, the strengths of the different radii and thickness of specimens were calculated by the commercial finite element program to study the size effect of the biaxial tensile strength like the uniaxial tensile strength. The parameters such as radii to the support and to the load point, were studied using the program. The results of the FE analysis were entirely consistent with the predictive solution, when b/a>0.4, and the thickness of the specimens were increased. On the other hands, those with lesser free length showed good results.

This research was conducted to analyze the behavior of PTCP (Post-Tensioned prestressed Concrete Pavement) under tensioning by performing field tests when the experimental PTCP slab was being constructed. The displacements in the slab under the environmental loading and tensioning were measured using temperature measurement sensors and displacement transducers. Tensioning was performed three times and appropriateness of tensioning could be determined by investigating the relationship between temperature and displacement, behavior of transverse crack, and daily change in displacement. The results of this study showed that under the first tensioning at very early age, large displacements were observed only near the joints because of the friction between slab and underlying layer and concrete inelasticity. Under consecutive tensioning, displacements were clearly observed all over the slab, but still affected by the friction. In addition, appropriate tensioning ensured the one-slab behavior of the PTCP slab even though cracks existed.

A single particle crushing test was carried out for recycled aggregates from waste concrete while demolishing various structures. When the recycled aggregates were used for backfill or road subbase materials, load-displacement and crushing characteristics were analyzed. The recycled aggregates with hydrates and aggregates were sorted into 40 mm size (75-40 mm) and 20 mm size (40-20 mm). At initial loading, their irregular surface was closed to and then crushed by loading plate. Such first crushing stage was called 'Surface crushing'. Further loading, some hydrate was crushed and detached from aggregate, and such process repeated several times. This state is called 'hydrate crushing'. The final state is called 'aggregate crushing' in which aggregate crushed and following load suddenly dropped down. As the load increased, such crushing cycle is repeated several times. The shapes of aggregates are round or square, and triangle or long shaped. Depending on their shapes and surface conditions, they crushed in different ways. The 63% of aggregates showed more than 50% load reduction due to aggregate crushing. The 90% load reduction occurred at 15% of aggregates. The 40 mm aggregate crushed at maximum load between 3.05-4.38 kN and 70% of crushed aggregates were less than 20 mm.

A new methodology of guided wave based nondestructive testing (NDT) is developed to detect crack damage in civil infrastructures such as steel bridges without using prior baseline data. In conventional guided wave based techniques, damage is often identified by comparing the "current" data obtained from a potentially damaged condition of a structure with the "past" baseline data collected at the pristine condition of the structure. However, it has been reported that this type of pattern comparison with the baseline data can lead to increased false alarms due to its susceptibility to varying operational and environmental conditions of the structure. To develop a more robust damage diagnosis technique, a new concept of NDT is conceived so that cracks can be detected without direct comparison with previously obtained baseline data. The proposed NDT technique utilizes the polarization characteristics of the piezoelectric wafers attached on the both sides of the thin metal structure. Crack formation creates Lamb wave mode conversion due to a sudden change in the thickness of the structure. Then, the proposed technique instantly detects the appearance of the crack by extracting this mode conversion from the measured Lamb waves even at the presence of changing operational and environmental conditions. Numerical and experimental results are presented to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed technique to crack detection.
