A method to optimize the cost of R/C frames and an algorithm of the optimal limit state design for R/C frames subjected to dynamic loads are presented. The modal superposition method was used to find the dynamic responses of the frames. Each member of R/C frame is made up of more than two elements and the stiffness matrix and consistent mass matrix of three d.o.f in the node of each element was used to include axial, shear and flexural effects. The objective function to be minimized formulated the cost of materials, steel and concrete, and optimised to satisfy the behaviors of R/C frame and each constraint imposed by the limit state requirements. Both objective function and each constraint are derived in terms of design variables which include the effective depth, beam width, compression and tension steel area, and column shear steel area. A few applications are presented which demonstrate the feasibility, the validity and efficiency of the algorithm for automated optimum design of R/C frames where dynamic behavior is to be considered.

This paper presents the results of experimental investigations on the shear failure behaviors of reinforced concrete beams using ductile fiber reinforced cementitious composite (DFRCC). Total 10 RC beams of $150{\times}300{\times}1,000mm$ size were tested by 4-point bending under the displacement control. The main parameters of the experiment are surface treatment by grinding and preloading to the cracking point in the repair process. The load-displacement curves, diagonal tension cracking load, flexural cracking load, and shear strength were obtained. The test results showed that the DFRCC can be used effectively for restoring the shear strength approximately 99% to the original value under the condition that the appropriate thickness and surface treatment like grinding are assured. For further research, the specimens taken from real deteriorated structures will need to be tested after being repaired with DFRCC.

This study investigates elastic lateral-torsional buckling(LTB) of monosymmetric doubly stepped I-beams subjected to pure bending based on finite element analysis(FEA). The results from the FEA are used for new design stepped equation, Cst. The equations are compared with the results from the FEA. The comparison indicates that the new equation provides a good relation with the FEA results. The maximum difference between two results is of 11%. The new equation could be easily used to calculate the elastic lateral-torsional buckling moment resistance of monosymmetric stepped I-beams and to expand the new equation for developing LTB equations of monosymmetric stepped beams subjected to general loading conditions such as a concentrated load, distributed load, or a seres of concentrated load.

The aim of this study is to determine the flexural properties(Modulus of Rupture, Modulus of Elasticity) of Platanus occidentalis L. laminated beams fabricated with 1, 3, 5, 8, 15 lamination and Tension, Compression lamination. The results were as follows: 1. MOR increased with increasing number of lamination in 3, 5, 8, 15-beam and Tension lamination beam. MOR of Compression lamination beam was lower than that of 3-beam, MOR of vertical beam not having Tension or compression lamination was lower than that of horizontal beam, but MOR of vertical beam with tension or compression lamination was same or slightly higher than that of horizontal beam. 2. The allowable working stress showed the same tendency. This stress increased with increasing number of lamination. This value of Tension lamination beam was higher than that of compression lamination beam. 3. MOE of all laminated beams was higher than that of solid beam and Tension lamination beam was higher than that of 3-beam. MOE of Tension lamination beam was higher than that of Compression lamination beam. MOE of all vertical beam was higher than that of horizontal beam except for T-2, T-5, C-3. 4. Most beam failures appeared to begin in tension. These tension failures were classified into Splintering tension, Cross-grained tension, Simple tension, Brittle tension. All test beam failures could be classified into three categories. 1) Tension failure 2) Compression failure 3) Horizontal shear failure.

In this study, the stub columns of built-up H-section and square hollow section subjected to eccentrical loads are tested to evaluate the applicability of the structural members with 800MPa high-strength steel (HSA800) on current design specification. Analytical studies of FE model are conducted to validate the test results and then the verified FE models are used for extensive parametric studies for checking up the applicability of current design code. The parameters are width-to-thickness ratios and axial load ratios. From P-M correlations on parameter models, all stub columns with non-compact sections exceed the current design requirements about axial force and flexural strength ratios are sufficiently secured as the axial load ratios are decreased. The built-up hollow sections with slender section model do not satisfy the current design specification about axial force.

In this study, simplified analysis (discrete analysis of column and pile) of pile bent structures was performed on the basis of the equivalent base spring model. And the minimum reinforcement ratio in pile bent structures was evaluated by taking into account various factors. To obtain the detailed information, simplified analysis was performed for column-pile interactions and the behavior of a column-pile was estimated and highlighted. Based on this study, it is shown that previous design method based on virtual fixed point theory cannot adequately predict the physical behavior of pile bent structures. It is found that the maximum bending moment is located within craking moment of the pile when material non-linearity is considered. It is also found that the minimum reinforcement ratio (=0.4%) is appropriately applicable for the optimal design of pile bent structure under ultimate lateral loading.

In engineering practices, the superstructure was analyzed under a fixed boundary condition and the foundation was designed by considering the loading condition of superstructure. It may result in overestimation of forces, the bending moment, settlement of superstructure and foundation. In this study, an interactive analytical method is proposed for the interaction between the superstructure and the piled raft. The overall objective of this study is focused on the application of interactive analysis method for predicting behavior of entire structures. And a series of numerical analyses are performed to verify the interactive analysis routine in comparison to the unified analysis method. Through the comparative studies, it is found that the iterative and interactive analysis gave similar results of settlement and raft bending moment compared with those of finite element analysis. And it is also found that the proposed design method considering interaction between superstructure and foundation is capable of predicting reasonably well the behavior of entire structures. It can be effectively used to the design of a superstructure-piled raft foundation system.

Fibers play a role to increase the tensile strength and cracking resistance of concrete structures. The post cracking behavior must be clarified to predict cracking resistance of fiber reinforced concrete. The purpose of this study is to develop a realistic analysis method for the post cracking behavior of synthetic fiber reinforced concrete members. For this purpose, the cracked section is assumed to behave as a rigid body and the pullout behavior of single fiber is employed. A probabilistic approach is used to calculate effective number of fibers across crack faces. The existing theory is compared with test data and shows good agreement. The proposed theory can be efficiently used to describe the load-deflection behavior, moment-curvature relation, load-crack width relation of synthetic fiber reinforced concrete beams.

Compression stress block used to concrete structure design substitutes equivalent triangle, rectangle, trapezoid and parabola-rectangle stress block for actual concrete stress distribution. Its shape is different in design code of the major advanced countries. It reflects the material feature of each of country. Presently, compression stress block of korea concrete design code is equal to it of ACI code that doesn't reflect the material feature of the high strength concrete. So, many research conclusions showed that it is not reasonable. The study compares concrete stress blocks of the major advanced countries and does an experiment on concrete compression stress block to know the material feature of the concrete in korea. It obtains the operating load and the concrete strain in experiment and draw stress block parameters. It compares stress block parameters applied to design code with those by the experiment conclusion. In addition, It compares and analyses nominal axial force-moment diagram by the stress block of the major advanced countries.
