Steel pipe piles have been used as various deep foundation materials for a long time. Recent increase in steel material cost has made engineers reluctant in using it even with its good quality and ease of construction. Therefore when constructing with steel pipe pile, the decision to reuse the excessive pile length that is cut off from the designed pile head elevation after pile driving can be cost saving. This has caused many constructors to reuse the pile leftovers with new piles, but the absence of quantitative structural capacity behaviors of steel pipe pile after pile driving or appropriate countermeasures and standards in reusing steel pipe pile has resulted in wrong applications, pile structural integrity problems, inappropriate limitation of reusable pile length, etc. The structural performance analysis between a new pile and a pile that has undergone working state and ultimate state stress level during pile driving was performed in this research by means of comparing the results between the dynamic pile load test, tensile load test, charpy energy test and fatigue test for high strength steel of $440N/mm^2$ yield strength. Test results show that under working load conditions the yield strength variation is less than 2% and for ultimate load conditions the variation is less than 5% for maximum total blow count of 3000. The results have been statistically analyzed to check the sensitivity of each factors involved. From the test results, reusability of steel pipe pile lies not in the main pipe yield strength deviation but in the reduction of absorb energy, strength changes and quality control at the welded section, shape deformation and local buckling during pile driving.

In the existing method to design geosynthetic reinforced embankment, the required strength of reinforcements is determined by vertical stress only rather than strain. This strength is not in accord with tensile strength that behaves as reinforcement in earth structures. The reinforcement and adjacent soil on the failure plan behave in one unit at the initial stress phase but they make a gap in strain as stress increases. This issue may cause a big impact as a critical factor on geosynthetic reinforcement design in earth structures. The quantitative analysis on strain behavior was performed with a PET Mat reinforced embankment on soft ground. From this study, several outstanding discussions are found that tensile strength of reinforcement governs the failure of embankment when the soil stress is greater than failure stress. Also the optimum required tensile strength of geosynthetic reinforcement(Tos) should be determined by stress, displacement, displacement gap and safety factor of soil-PET Mat at the location of PET Mat.

This paper was composed with fatigue test of the cruciform specimens, as load carrying and non-load carrying type. It also has performed computational analyses for geometric condition of the fillet welding bead. As test results, the effect of stress ratio in the specimen was insignificant. Stress ranges were varied with R=0.1~0.2. The fatigue cracks that were found in the load carrying type specimens and most specimens welded with contact were developed at the end of welds. The fatigue strength of specimen that have fractured in maternal plate was found about ${\Delta}\sigma_c$=63.5MPa. It's about 24% less than that of the non-load carrying type specimens having about ${\Delta}\sigma_c$=83.8MPa. A category of the Fatigue design specifications which provide for cruciform details was defined grade C as a stress of the maternal member. And then, the fatigue strength to be transformed into the maternal stress was found about 78.27 MPa, it tends to be less than that of allowable fatigue strength.

The structural reliability assessment can be used to improve the reliability in the asset integrity management of the pipeline by using a geometric variation, mechanical characteristics, load change and operating condition as evaluation factors. When evaluating structural reliability, the failure probability of the natural gas pipe is evaluated by the relationship of the resistance of the pipe material to external loads. The failure probability of the natural gas pipe due to the combined stresses such as the internal pressure, thermal stress and bending stress was evaluated by using COMREL program. When evaluating the failure probability of the natural gas pipe, a buried depth of 1.5 to 30 m, a wheel load of 2.5 to 20 ton, a temperature difference of 45℃, an operating pressure of 6.86MPa, and a soil density of 1.8 kN/㎥ were used. The failure probabilities of the natural gas pipe were evaluated by the Von-Mises stress criterion as the maximum allowable stress criterion under the combined stresses.

본 논문은 국내의 비보강 조적조에 대해 내진성능을 조사하기 위하여 재료측성 평가를 위한 실험연구를 수행하였다. 실험결과를 바탕으로 조적용 모르터의 압축강도식을 제안하였다. 또한 조적용 모르터의 배합비에 따른 조적조 프리즘의 압축강도 특성을 비교하였다. 조적조 프리즘의 압축강도로써 조적조의 탄성계수를 구할 수 있는 약산식을 제시하였으며, 약산식을 사인장 조적조 실험을 통하여 구한 전단탄성계수값과 비교하여 볼 때 타당성을 가지고 있다고 판단된다. 실험결과로써 나온 재료특성 값을 바탕으로 2층 조적조 다세대 주택에 대한 유사동적해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과로 얻은 전단응력과 전단파괴가 나타난 사인장 조적조의 허용전단응력은 유사한 것으로 확인되었다.

두개의 임플랜트로 지지되는 overdenture를 이용한 하악무치악환자의 치료법은 경제적이면서, 실용적인 치료로 인정을 받고 있다. 하지만 해부학적인 조건으로 임플랜트를 설측 혹은 후방에 식립해야 되는 경우에는 일반적인 bar설계는 bar가 구강저 상방을 지나게 되어 혀운동, 발음, 위생관리 등에 많은 문제점을 부여한다. 이에 대한 해결방법으로 전방부 치조제 상에 보철물의 회전을 허용하는 angular bar를 설계할 수 있다. 하지만 이 설계는 임플랜트에 불리한 moment를 유발한다. 그럼에도 불구하고 뛰어난 유지력과 지지능력, 경제적인 면 때문에 angular bar는 임상에서 많이 사용되고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 angular bar의 전방 cantilever양을 달리하여 임플랜트 및 주변조직에 미치는 영향을 삼차원 유한요소분석법을 통해서 알아보고자 하였다. 이공사이의 하악골을 단순화시킨 준하악골모형에 직경 3.75mm인 브로네마르크 임플랜트 2개를 길이가 13,15mm인 경우로 설정하여 제 1소구치 부위에 식립하였다. 두 임플랜트를 연결하는 bar는 전방부 cantilever양을 0-5mm, 1mm씩 하여 6가지 경우를 가정하고 제작하였다. 각각 bar 중앙부에 수직압 (90도) 35N, 경사압(120도) 70N, 수평압(0도) 10N을 가하였으며 이때 나타나는 응력 분산형태와 임플랜트의 골유착에 불리하게 작용하는 최대주응력(인장력)과 변위량을 살펴보았다. 연구결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. Cantilever양이 증가할수록 주변피질골과 임플랜트로 응력이 집중되었으며 상부 보철물의 변위량도 커졌다. 2. Cantilever양에 대한 수평압의 영향은 크지 않았으며 임플랜트 길이가 긴 것이 변위량과 응력이 작았다. 3. 경사압에 대한 응력의 변화는 cantilever양의 증가에 따라 급격히 증가하는 양상을 띠었으며 임플랜트길이가 응력 및 변위의 양에 미치는 영향은 없었다. 4. 수직압에 대한 응력의 변화는 초기에는 완만한 증가를 보이다가 일정 시점 지난 후에는 증가율이 커지는 경향을 띠었다. 증가현상이 두드러지기 전에는 길이의 증가가 응력의 분산효과는 가져왔으나 이후에는 길이의 응력분산 효과는 없었다. 5. 응력분포양상은 cantilever양이 증가할수록 골조직을 통한 분산정도는 작아지고 특정부위의 피질골과 임플랜트, 상부보철물에 집중되는 경향을 보였다. 6. 임플랜트와 주변 골조직으로의 응력분산능력이 예후를 좌우한다는 점에서 angular bar는 적합치 못하며 부득이한 경우는 임플랜트 길이를 길게 하고 최대한 3mm이내로 cantilever양을 제한하는 것이 추천된다.

This study investigates reliability based design criteria for the spiral R.C. columns, and proposes practical algorithm which is based on Ellingwood's algorithm for the reliability analysis and the derivation of reliability based design criteria. Cornell's MFOSM theory is used for the derivation of the algorithm for the evaluation of uncertainties associated with resistances, whereas the magnitude of the uncertainties associated with load effects are chosen primarily by considering our level of practice. And thus the uncertainties so obtained are applied for the relilability analysis and the derivation of reliability based design criteria. A target reliability (${\beta}_0=3.5$) is selected as an appropriate value by comparing the values used in foreign countries and by analyzing, the reliability levels of our current USD and WSD design standards. Then, a set of load and resistance factors corresponding to the target reliability is proposed as a reliability based design provision, and furthermore a set of allowable stresses for reinforcing steel and concrete having same level of reliability with the corresponding LRFD criteria is also propared for the current WSD design provision. It may be concluded that the proposed LRFD reliability based design provisions and the corresponding allowable stresses give more rational design than the current code for spiral R.C. columns.

This study is directed to propose a set of reliability based design provisions which gives more rational design for R.C. columns than the current WSD or USD standard design codes. Cornell's MFOSM theory is used for the derivation of the algorithm for the evaluation of uncertainties associated with resistances, whereas the magnitude of the uncertainties associated with load effects are chosen primarily by considering our level of practice. And thus the uncertainties so obtained are applied for the reliability analysis and the derivation of reliability based design criteria. A target reliability(${\beta}_0=4.0$) is selected as an appropriate value by comparing the values used in foreign countries and by analyzing the reliability levels of our current USD and WSD design standars. Then, a set of load and resistance factors corresponding to the target reliability is proposed as a reliability based design provision, and furthermoere a set of allowable stresses for reinforcing steel and concrete having same level of relibity with the corresponding LRFD criteria is also propared for the current WSD design provision. It may be concluded that the proposed LRFD reliability based design provisions and the corresponding allowable stresses give more rational design than the current code for R.C. columns and may be desirable to introdue into the current WSD and USD provision of R.C. column design.

Soils around a pile are highly constrained when the vertical load is applied to the pile. However, the conventional direct shear test cannot evaluate the shear strength of the soils under the normal confinement condition. The goal of this study is to evaluate the shear behaviors according to the normal displacement confinement condition including free normal displacement (FND) and constrained normal displacement (CND) during direct shearing. Jumunjin sands were prepared at the different relative densities and loaded at the different normal stresses. The specimens were sheared according to the normal confinement conditions. Experimental results show that shear strengths obtained by the CND tests are higher than those obtained by the FND tests. In addition, for the constrained normal displacement condition, the increment of shear strength increases with the increase of relative density, while the increment of shear strength decreases with the initial normal stress. This study suggests that the effect of confinement condition on the shear strength should be considered when the stability of constrained soils is analyzed.

The aim of this study is to investigate the inelastic buckling behavior of the beams under moment gradient using a line-type finite element method. The method is incorporated the non-uniform yielding of the cross-section caused by the presence of residual stress and accepted model of residual stress so called 'simplified' and 'polynomial' pattern is adopted in this study. The inelastic lateral-torsional buckling results obtained in this study is compared with the buckling results obtained from the design method based on the allowable stress method given in Korean Steel Designers Manual (KSDM 1995). This study have found that the design method in KSDM (1995) is conservative without and with intermediate bracing applied at the mid span of the beam, and there is some scope for improving the provisions of KSDM (1995)
