The semi-rigid joint is the shape of middle that can supplement the defect of pin joints and accept the good point of rigid joints. Recently, a study on the pin joints is activated in the country, but because the study on semi-rigid joints is not many, this study tried to prove with producing test model of three shape. The test models are rigid joint HI-R, semi-rigid joint HI-S, pin joint HI-P. As a result of the test, respectively HI-R, HI-S, HI-P appeared shear failure of joint, flexure failure of the top fixing, flexure failure of the lower part slipping stair slab, and the maximum strength is measured to 51.74, 51.4, 24.63kN, the stiffness is appeared 1.58, 1.19, 0.37 respectively, The yield strength is respectively kept 44.5, 47.3, 24kN, and ductility ratio is appeared to 3.31, 2.32, 1.54, when is based on KBC code, sag of the acting service load is appeared that HI-P model is over the standard. When is based on distribution of bars strain ratio, HI-S seems similar behavior incipiently, but after the yield, the semi-rigid joint was able to be judged better than pin joint because of the stress allotment of joint internal elements.

Due to the pursuit of high function and international price increase in the field of construction, the application of the secondary product using cement is on the increase gradually in the construction industry in the pursuit of economic cost reduction by the shortening of the construction time like Expediting and the dry construction method at the same time. However, it is in very urgent situation of measures to improve the structural performance or durable performance because it is limited for use in terms of panel in interior exterior building or functional repair reinforce as yet. Accordingly, this study is to investigate applicability of permanent Formwork like mould with the structural performance or excellent durable performance in the field of construction, and to derive optimum mixture in the performance and quality of manufacture. As a result of analysis comparison with the dynamic and durable properties of vacuum extrusion molding high toughness cement panel according to the mixture of four conditions, this study has found that the test body of mixing ECC-DP3 using small filler and large granulated blast furnace slag and powder flame retardant had excellent relative hardness and bending stress strain. The durable performance has shown excellent tendency by the decrease of porosity and enhancement of water-tightness.

Theoretical, empirical and numerical methods are used to evaluate the rock load due to tunnelling. Theoretical and empirical methods do not consider ground conditions, tunnel shape, and construction conditions. However, through numerical analysis, it is possible to analyze the displacement and stresses around tunnel due to its excavation, and evaluate the rock load considering ground and construction conditions. The stress transfer ratio(e) which is defined as a ratio of the difference between the major and minor principal stresses to major principal stress is used in order to understand the stress transfer effect around the tunnel excavation using numerical analysis results. The loosend area around tunnel periphery was found based on this approach. The difference of rock load from stress transfer effect was found according to the ground grade. From comparison, rock load obtained from stress transfer effect (e = 10%) were somewhat larger than the results obtained from the critical strain method, but smaller than those obtained from theoretical and empirical methods. The stress transfer effect approach considers the ground condition, tunnel shape; therefore, it can be applied to evaluate the rock load in concrete lining design.

A pile is a type of medium for constructing superstructures in weak geotechnical conditions. A pretensioned spun high-strength concrete (PHC) pile is composed of high-strength concrete with a specified strength greater than 80 MPa. Therefore, it has advantages in resistance to axial and bending moments and quality control and management since it is manufactured in a factory. However, the skin friction of a pile, which accounts for a large portion of the pile bearing capacity, is only approximated using empirical equations or standard penetration test (SPT) N-values. Particularly, there are some poor research results on the pile-soil interface under the seismic loads in Korea. Additionally, some studies do not consider geoenvironmental elements, such as groundwater pH values. This study performs sets of cyclic simple shear tests using submerged concrete specimens for 1 month to consider pH values of groundwater and clay specimens composed of kaolinite to generate a pile-soil interface. 0.2 and 0.4 MPa of normal stress conditions are considered in the case of pH values. The disturbed state concept is employed to express the dynamic behavior of the interface, and the disturbed function parameters are newly suggested. Consequently, the largest disturbance increase under basic conditions is observed, and an early approach to the failure under low normal stress conditions is presented. The disturbance function parameters are also suggested to express this disposition quantitatively.

Previous test results showed that the current ASTM(American Standard for Testing and Materials) grip adapter for GFRP(Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer) rebar was not fully successful in developing the design tensile strength of GFRP rebars with reasonable accuracy. It is because the current ASTM grip adapter which is composed of a pair of rectangular metal blocks of which inner faces are grooved along the longitudinal direction does not take into account the various geometric characteristics of GFRP rebar such as surface treatment, shape of bar cross section as well as physical characteristics such as poisson effect, elastic modulus in the transverse direction and so on. The objective of this paper is to provide how to proportion the optimum diameter of inner groove in ASTM grip adapter to develop design tensile strength of GFRP rebar. The proportioning of inner groove in ASTM grip adapter is based on the force equilibrium of GFRP rebar between tensile capacity and minimum frictional resistance required along the grip adapter. The frictional resistance of grip adapter is calculated based on the compressive strain compatibility in radial direction induced by the difference between diameter of GFRP rebar and inner groove In ASTM grip. All testing procedures were made according to the CSA S806-02 recommendations. From the preliminary test results on round-type GFRP rebars, it was found that maximum tensile loads acquired under the same testing conditions is highly affected by the diameter of inner groove in ASTM grip adapter. The grip adapter with specific dimension proportioned by proposed method recorded the highest tensile strength among them.
