The purpose of this study was to investigate the performance of precast segmental PSC bridge columns with precast concrete footings. The proposed system can reduce work at a construction site and makes construction periods shorter. The precast concrete footings is intended to support precast segmental PSC bridge columns and provides an alternative to current cast-inplace systems, particularly for areas where reduced construction time is desired. Shortened construction time, in turn, leads to important safety and economic advantages when traffic disruption or rerouting is necessary. A model of precast segmental PSC bridge columns was tested under a constant axial load and a cyclically reversed horizontal load. In the companion paper, the experimental and analytical study for the performance assessment of precast segmental PSC bridge columns with precast concrete footings is performed.

The panels are used as a composite part of the completed deck. They replace the main bottom transverse deck reinforcement and also serve as a form surface for the cast-in-place concrete upper layer that contains the top of deck reinforcement. In this paper, three types of the detail for joints was selected and their structural performance in terms of strength and crack contral was investigated through static tests on composite beams. Form the results, the validity of loop joints for continuity of half-depth precast deck was observed and especially an overlapping length of loop joint and transverse reinforcement were checked. The results suggest that increasing the loop overlapping length increases the flexural strength of half-depth precast deck with loop joints. In terms of crack contral, the loop joint with transverse reinforcement showed better performance.

콘크리트내에 짧은 길이를 갖고 임의의 방향으로 배향된 강섬유는 콘크리트가 인장응력을 받을 때 일반콘크리트에 비하여 인장강도와 연성을 증가시키며 이는 콘크리트모체내 강섬유의 균열억제메카니즘에 기인한다. 본연구에서는 기존의 각기다른 spacing 개념들에 의하여 SFRC의 인장강도를 예측하고 정확한도를 실험치와 비교하여 평가하였는데 시험체의 경계조건 및 타설시의 진동으로 인한 콘크리트내 강섬유의 재향성을 고려한 단위면적당 섬유수(N1)개념이 실행결과와 가장 좋은 상관관계를 나타내었다. 또한 SFRC의 강도후 영역에 대한 이론적인 해석이 고려되었으며 본 해석은 시험체의 경계조건, 진동효과, 콘크리트모체와 강섬유의 강섬유의 접촉면의 비선형부착특성 고려 및 특히 위험단면에서 매입길이가 다른 각 강섬유의 적합조건을 고려하였다.

A small scale impact apparatus, pressuremter and soil chamber were used to investigate horizontal behavior and bearing capacity of the steel guardrail post installed in compacted soil. A useful test and data reduction method for pressuremter was developed to evaluate soil parameters of surrounding soil and stability of the post. From the analyses of the PMT, horizontal bearing capacity of the post impacted by a boggie was 12.7% bigger than that of the post with static loading. The increased horizontal bearing capacity is due to generated inertia force that is dependent on the shape of failed soil wedge around the post. P-y curves were obtained from the pressuremeter test and were applied to a finite difference program which predicted a load-deflection and a bending moment contours along the post.

건축물의 에너지 이용을 효율화하기 위하여 단열기준 등을 기존보다 20% 이상 강화하는 것을 골자로 하는 건축물의 에너지절약 설계기준(건설교통부 고시 제2001-118호)이 지난해 6월 1일부터 시행되고 있다. 개정 기준의 가장 큰 특징은 단열기준의 적용 부위를 외기에 직접 면한 부위와 간접 면한 부위로 구분하고, 지역을 중부와 남부, 제주도로 구분$\cdot$설정하여 부하조건과 에너지 소비특성에 따라 건축물의 단열기준을 세분화한 것이다. 특히, 종래에는 최하층 바닥에만 적용하였던 거실 바닥(온돌)의 단열기준을 중간층까지 확대$\cdot$적용하였고, 여기에 온돌시스템의 열적 특성을 고려하여 단열기준의 적용 부위를 보다 구체적으로 설정하고 있다. 따라서 종래의 온돌시스템에서 채움층으로 일반적으로 사용하고 있는 현장 타설식 경량기포콘크리트의 열전도율이 0.13W/mK 내외임을 고려한다면 현행 습식온돌시스템의 열관류율은 $1.0W/m^{2}K$ 이상이 될 것으로 예상됨으로서 앞으로 온돌시스템의 배관층 하부에 $1.0m^{2}K/W$ 이상의 열전도저항을 지닌 단열층이 구성되어야만 개정기준에서 정하는 열관류율 $0.81W/m^{2}K$(기준층 기준)의 성능과 배관하부의 열전도저항값 적용비율을 만족할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Since the allowable bearing capacities of piles in weathered/fractured rock are mainly governed by settlement, the load-displacement behavior of pile should be known accurately. To predict pile head settlement at the design stage, the exact understanding of the load-transfer mechanisms is essential. Therefore, in this research, the load-transfer mechanism of drilled shaft socketed into weathered rock was investigated. For the investigation, five cast-in-place concrete piles with diameters of 1,000 mm were socketed into weathered gneiss. The static axial load tests and the load-transfer measurements were performed to examine the axial resistant behavior of the piles. A comprehensive field/laboratory testing program on weathered rock at the Held test sites was also performed to describe the in situ rock mass conditions quantitatively. And then, the effect of rock mass condition on the load transfer mechanism was investigated. The f-w (side shear resistance-displacement) curve of the pile in moderately weathered rock reached to yielding point at a for millimeter displacements, and after yielding point, the rate of resistance increment dramatically decreased. However, the f-w curve in the highly/completely weathered rock did not show the obvious yielding point, and the resistance gradually increased showing the hyperbolic pattern until relatively high displacement (>15 mm). The q-w (end bearing resistance-displacement) curves showed linear response at least until the base displacement of approximately 10 mm, regardless of rock mass conditions.

Bi-directional pile load test (briefly called 'BDH PLT') cannot be performed at loading levels where ultimate bearing capacity could be assessed in field, it is not possible to precisely determine both ultimate load and yield load and under loading. Since the load is transmitted separately to the skin and the end unlike the static pile load test (briefly called 'SPLT') and the direction of loading on the skin is opposite, such methods could have a result different from actual movements of shafts. In this study, three-dimensional finite element method (briefly called '3D FEM') analysis was conducted from results of the BDH PLT, made with barret piles, which were large-diameter cast-in-place concrete piles, and the calculated design constants were applied to the 3D FEM analysis of the SPLT to interpret them numerically and then, actual behaviors of cast-in-place concrete piles were estimated. First, using the results of the BDH PLT with cast-in-place concrete piles, behaviors of the piles made by loading upwards and downwards were analyzed to calculate load-displacement. Second, the design constants, calculated by the 3D FEM analysis and the back analysis, were applied on the 3D FEM analysis for the SPLT, and from these results, behaviors of the SPLT through the BDH PLT was analyzed. Last, the results of the 3D FEM analysis of the SPLT through the BDH PLT was expressed in relationships as {A ratio of bearing capacity of the SPLT and of the BDH PLT (y)} ~ {A ratio of reference displacement and pile circumference (x)}, and they were all classified by reference displacement at 10.0 mm, 15.0 mm, and 25.4 mm.

The high capacity bi-directional pile load test is an optimum pile load test method for high-rised buildings. Especially, a high pressure and double-acting bi-directional pile load testing, a special type of the high capacity bi-directional pile load test, is the most practical way to overcome limitations of loading capacities and constraints of field conditions, which was judged to be a very useful test method for requiring high loading capacities. Total of 2 high capacity bi-directional pile load tests(P-1 and P-2) were conducted in high-rised building sites in Korea. Based on the field load test results, the sufficiency ratio of loading capacities to design loads for P-1 and P-2 were 3.3 and 2.1, respectively. For P-2, the load test could not verify the design load if 1-directional loads applied slightly smaller than the actual applied load. Also, high capacity bi-directional pile load tests were difficult to determine an ultimate state of ground or piles, although the loads were applied until their maximum loads. Hence, finite element analyses were conducted to determine their ultimate states by calibrating and extrapolate with test results.

A road curbstone is a structure installed at the boundary of the sidewalk and the street with the objectives of road drainage, drawing attention and such. The current general construction method of curbstones places foundation concrete for the curbstones first, waits until the concrete reaches the strength to support the curbstones, places the curbstones on top, and then places the gutter and rear filling concrete. Such method has the issues of poor compaction and weakened bond strength of concrete due to split placing of concrete, and causes the curbstones to easily separate due to vehicle impact or earth pressure, in turn creating maintenance costs and spoiling the aesthetics. To improve such conventional construction methods, an all-in-one method was developed using formwork rail and jig where both the curbstones and gutter can be worked at the same time, and to evaluate the structural performance, static tests of lateral loading test, pullout test, and bending test were executed, and dynamic tests such as pendulum test and actual vehicle impact test were executed. In all tests, the all-in-one construction method using formwork rail and jig was shown to be superior to the conventional construction method by the increase of construction quality and bond strength of concrete.
