The failure phenomenon of overlaid concrete structures, such as surface crack and peel-off failure in the contact zone, was investigated due to temperature shock(rainfall). To investigate this failure phenomenon, the surface tensile stress, and the shear stress, the vertical tensile stress in the contact zone were analysed using the non-linear stress-strain relationship of material such as strain-hardening- and strain-softening diagrams. Rainfall intensity, overlay thickness and overlay material were the main variables in the analyses. It is assumed that the initial temperature of overlaid concrete structures was heated up to 55$\^{C}$ by the solar heat. With a rain temperature 10$\^{C}$ and the rainfall intensity of nR=1/a, tR=10min, 60min, the stress states of overlaid concrete structures were calculated. The result shows that only fictitious cracks occurred in the overlay surface and no shear bond failure occurred in the contact zone. The vortical tensile stress increasing with overlay thickness was proved to be the cause of peel-off failure in the contact zone. The formulae for relationship between the vertical tensile stress and overlay thickness, material properties were derived. Using this formulae, it is possible to select proper material and overlay thickness to prevent failure in the contact zone due to temperature shock caused by rainfall.

In the recent construction industry, Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers(CFRPs) have been highly considered as innovative strengthening materials for civil structures due to their superior material properties. This paper is to offer design data and strengthening efficiency of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with CFRP Plate. Static tests were carried out to evaluate failure modes and strengthening capacity. Displacements and strains of steel and CFRP plates were obtained and analyzed through a series of fatigue tests. Also, Those evaluated the energy dissipation. Results of the tests showed increase in strengthening ratios caused debonding failure at the end of beams. For the beams wrapped with CFRP sheets around the end of the plates, debonding failure mode that was induced from flexural cracks was indicated. Through the fatigue tests, it was observed that displacements, strains of steel and CFRP plates converged into certain values. It is also proved that the beams strengthened with CFRP plates are able to resist fatigue loading under serviceability.

It is necessary to predict the deformation and stresses on soils to establish the nonlinear stress-strain relationship of geomaterials at various strain levels. Especially, a need exists to establish the pre-failure nonlinear characteristic of cemented granular geomaterials used in road constructions. In this paper, therefore, conventional granular soils were mixed with various cementing materials, such as cement and fly ash from coal combustion by-products. Then, the normalized nonlinear behavior of cemented geomaterials was assessed using unconfined compression test. In addition, various constitutive models of soils were evaluated for estimating pre-failure non-linear behavior of cemented geomaterials from the test results.

Reinforced concrete (RC) structures strengthened with FRP materials would cause the loss of the reinforcing effect and the sudden failure of the structure due to the debonding of FRP. The debonding fracture strength of the FRP-strengthened concrete structures has been evaluated using the same strength method as applied in RC structures based on the debonding strain of FRP. However, the values of the FRP debonding strain are different according to design guidelines. Thus, this study carried out an experimental study on RC beams reinforced with GFRP and evaluated the debonding fracture strength of the strengthened beams from each design guideline. Since the debonding failure occurs prior to reaching the ultimate value of concrete compressive strain, this study accounts for the nonlinear stress distribution of concrete. This study also proposed equations that can evaluate the debonding strength of GFRP-strengthened RC beams with similar safety to the ultimate flexural strength of non-strengthened RC beams.

휨을 받는 철근콘크리트 부재 단면의 연화현상은 구조물의 파괴하중 해석시 중요한 인자로 작용한다. 일반적인 탄-소성 이론에 근거한 소성한계해석법을 사용할 경우 철골 구조물에는 적합하지만 철근콘크리트 구조물에는 최대하중 이후의 연화현상으로 인하여 이 이론은 부적합하게 된다. 따라서 본 논문의 주목적은 변위제어방법을 사용하여 철근콘크리트 구조물이 파괴될 때까지의 완전한 거동을 이끌어 내는 것이다. 프로그램을 사용한 계산결과를 보다 빠르고 경제적으로 이끌어 내기 위하여 단면의 성질인 모멘트-곡률, 축력-축\ulcorner향 변형률, 그리고 전단력 변형률 곡선 등을 여러개의 직선적으로 단순화한 모델식을 사용하여 해석한다. 또한 연화현상을 고려한 유한요소의 해석결과는 사용된 요소의 크기에 따라 결과가 매우 다르게 나타나기 때문에 이를 방지하기 위하여 파괴에너지 개념을 도입하여 모멘트-곡률 곡선을 보정하여 구조계산에 적용시킨다. 이와 같이 단면을 층으로 나누어 해석하지 않고 직접 단면의 성질을 나타내는 곡선들을 적용한 본 프로그램으로 보와 골조를 해석한 결과는 실제적인 실험결과와 비교하였을 경우 거의 일치하게 나타난다.

암반 구조체를 해석하기 위해서는 파괴전의 응력-변형률 거동뿐만 아니라 파괴를 구성하는 삼차원 응력 상태를 알아야 한다. 암반의 파괴를 지배하는 조건을 결정하기 위해서는 일반적인 삼차원 파괴기준이 필요하다. 암반의 파괴를 이루는 응력상태를 파악하기 위해 많은 실험적 연구가 수행되었으며 특히 장비의 사용에 있어서 하중 메카니즘과 시료의 경계조건의 개선에 많은 연구가 진행되었다. 암반의 파괴조건을 설명하는 데에는 이러한 기본적인 기준들 이외에도 경험적인 기준들이 사용되어 왔다. Hoek 와 Brown 은 비등방성 재료의 강도에 대해 연구하였고 순수암(intact rock)의 강도에 대한 경험적인 기준을 제안하였다. (중략)

A total of 22 sites around openings of limestone mine are chosen to assess rock mass classification schemes such as RMR, Q-system, and GSI. RMR and Q are modified to estimate the relationship with GSI. Q' is the modified Q with SRF=1.0 and $J_w=1.0$. Rock mass is assumed to be completely dry and very favorable discontinuity orientations are assumed to estimate ${RMR_{89}}^{\prime}$. Relationships of Q-Basic RMR, Q-Total RMR, ${GSI-RMR_{89}}^{\prime}$, and GSI-Q' are analyzed, in which a correlation of ${GSI-RMR_{89}}^{\prime}$ is found to be the highest. Failure strains are calculated using the modulus ratios and most measuring sites appear to be stable with low failure strain class.

It is well-known that the mechanical behavior of fiber-reinforced composites under hydrostatic pressure environment is different from that of atmospheric pressure environment. It is also known that the mechanical behavior of fiber-reinforced composites is affected by a strain rate. In this work, we investigated the effect of strain rate on the compressive elastic modulus, fracture stress, and fracture strain of carbon/epoxy composites under hydrostatic pressure environment. The material used in the compressive test was unidirectional carbon/epoxy composites and the hydrostatic pressures applied was 270㎫. Compressive tests were performed applying three strain rates of 0.05％/sec, 0.25％/sec, and 0.55％/sec. The results showed that the elastic modulus increased with increasing strain rate while the fracture stress was little affected by the strain rate. The results also showed that the fracture strain decreased with increasing strain rate.

Recently, fiber-reinforced plastic(FRP) wraps are blown as an effective material for the enhancement and rehabilitation of aged concrete structures. The purpose of this investigation is to experimentally investigate behavior of concrete cylinder wrapped with FRP materials. Experimental parameters include compressive strength of concrete cylinder, FRP material, and confinement ratio. This paper presents the results of experimental studies on the performance of concrete cylinder specimens externally wrapped with aramid, carbon and glass fiber reinforced Polymer sheets. Test specimens were loaded in uniaxial compression. Axial load, axial and lateral strains were investigated to evaluate the stress-strain behavior, ultimate strength ultimate strain etc. Test results showed that the concrete strength and confinement ratio, defined as the ratio of transverse confinement stress and transverse strain were the most influential factors affecting the stress-strain behavior of confined concrete. More FRP layers showed the better confinement by increasing the compressive strength of test cylinders. In case of test cylinders with higher compressive strength, FRP wraps increased the compressive strength but decreased the compressive sham of concrete test cylinders, that resulted in prominent brittle failure mode. The failure of confined concrete was induced by the rupture of FRP material at the stain, being much smaller than the ultimate strain of FRP material.

본 논문에서는 발전소의 소재로 많이 쓰이고 있는 304 스테인리스강(앞으로는 304SS로 표기함)과 316스테인리스강(앞으로는 316SS로 표기함)의 크립 균열 발생 거동 을 각각 600.deg. C와 625.deg. C에서 조사한다. 이 온도는 발전소의 반응기(reactor)에 사용 되는 304SS와 316SS이 받는 온도이다. 즉 304SS와 316SS의 크립 균열 발생을 지배 하는 파괴 매개변수가 무엇인지가 크립 파괴 실험을 통하여 조사된다. 실험 결과는 이미 제안되어 있는 크립 균열 발생 모델에서 예측된 결과와 비교된다. 특히 304SS 와 316SS은 고온에서의 연성도가 변형률 속도에 따라 변하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 '변형률 속도에 따른 재료의 연성도의 변화에 근거한 균열 발생 모델' 을 제안하고, 그 모델에서 예측된 크립 발생 거동을 실험 결과와 비교한다.
