This study is to investigate the flexural performance of Near Surface Mounted (NSM) strengthening method using Fiber reinforced Polymer (FRP) materials to concrete structures. For this study, the inverse-shaped trapezoid CFRP composite material which has been registered as New Excellent Technology (NET) 351 was adopted to the concrete structure. In this study, two types of the CFRP types were considered; Type A ($15{\times}13{\times}6mm$) and Type B ($4{\times}3{\times}10mm$) with different strengthening ratio. In the result of the test, it was proved that NSM strengthened specimens had more flexural performance of 20-100% than that of the unstrengthened specimen. With this test result, the structural efficiency was investigated based on the coefficient of ductility and coefficient of crack resistance.

This research investigated the mechanical performance of slurry infiltrated high performance fiber reinforced cementitious composite (SI-HPFRCC) with high volume blast furnace slag powder. Hooked-end steel fibers (volume fraction of 6.4%) were used for the fabrication of SI-HPFRCC. A series of mechanical performance test was conducted including strength and toughness of SI-HPFRCC in compressive and flexural mode at four different ages. Compressive and flexural strength tests of the slurry matrix at the same ages were also conducted in order to evaluate fiber reinforcing effect on the mechanical performance. The flexural response of SI-HPFRCC shows an increasing brittleness with age. The compressive response also shows an increasing brittleness with age but the degree of brittleness is much lower than the flexural case. In terms of strength, SI-HPFRCC shows about 140~190% of compressive strength improvement and 440~500% flexural strength improvement comparing to the slurry matrix.

This paper present a study on the flexural behavior of composite slabs using the flat-type profiled(ACE-DECK) steel deck plate which are developed recently. Forty eight composite slabs with different thickness, span, shear span and deck profile were tested to evaluate the flexural capacity and compared to the existing traperzodial deck profiles (KEM, ALPHA-DECK) According to the experiment results, flat-type profiled steel deck plate indicates more excellent capacity than existing traperzodial deck profiles in strength, stiffness, and ductility. The equation proposed by ASCE code for the effective moment of inertia are more acceptable than the equation proposed by ACI code. Thus, in this paper, test results are summarized by strength, stiffness, and deformation capacity for the specimens.

Recently, it is really concerned about corrosion and aging of reinforced concrete bridges. Corrosional steel reinforcing in concrete affects not only safety of bridges structure but also bending strength of reinforced concrete's member. Rate of corrosion, characteristic of bending strength, and economical evaluation aren't clear in reinforced concrete, considering performance evaluation. The purpose of study is as follows. It studies about ability of resistance's strength and cost of life cycle according to reduction of steel reinforcing's corrosion. Moreover, it shows calculating formula of bending strength with corrosion of current rate and exactly evaluates about the rest life at corrosional reinforced concrete bridges.

This study was carry out to evaluate the effect of flexural behavior according to steel fiber type in UHPC. The results is showing that the steel fiber type have remarkable influence flexural strength Addition to it is showing that steel fiber type made little difference in the first cracking strength but considerable gap in the ultimate flexural strength to use the steel fiber of wave type.

In this study, Multi-Layer Perceptron(MLP) among models of Artificial Neural Network(ANN) is used for the development of a model that evaluates the bending capacities of reinforced concrete beams strengthened by FRP Rebar. And the data of the existing researches are used for materials of ANN model. As the independent variables of input layer, main components of bending capacities, width, effective depth, compressive strength, reinforcing ratio of FRP, balanced steel ratio of FRP are used. And the moment performance measured in the experiment is used as the dependent variable of output layer. The developed model of ANN could be applied by GFRP, CFRP and AFRP Rebar and the model is verified by using the documents of other previous researchers. As the result of the ANN model presumption, comparatively precise presumption values are achieved to presume its bending capacities at the model of ANN(0.05), while observing remarkable errors in the model of ANN(0.1). From the verification of the ANN model, it is identified that the presumption values comparatively correspond to the given data ones of the experiment. In addition, from the Sensitivity Analysis of evaluation variables of bending performance, effective depth has the highest influence, followed by steel ratio of FRP, balanced steel ratio, compressive strength and width in order.

In this study, it was developed eco-friendly alkali-activated slag fiber reinforced concrete using ground granulated blast furnace slag, alkali activator (water glass, sodium hydroxides), and steel fiber. Eight reinforced concrete beam using alkali-activated slag concrete were constructed and tested under monotonic loading. The major variables were mixture ratio of alkali activator, mixed/without of steel fiber. Experimental programs were carried out to improve and evaluate the flexural performance of such test specimens, such as the load-displacement, the failure mode, the maximum load carrying capacity, and ductility capacity. All the specimens were modeled in scale-down size. The reinforced concrete beams using the eco-friendly alkali-activated slag fiber reinforced concrete was failed by the flexure or flexure-shear in general. In addition, the maximum strength increased with the adding the mol of sodium hydroxide, and the specimen reinforced the steel fiber showed the value of maximum strength which is increased by 15.8% through 25.9%. It is thought that eco-friendly alkali-activated slag fiber reinforced concrete can be used with construction material and product to replace normal concrete. If there is applied to structures such as precast concrete member and production of 2nd concrete product, it could be improved the productivity and reduction of construction duration etc.

The potential shear strength of reinforced concrete beams decreases after flexural yielding due to the decrease of the effective compressive strength of concrete in plastic hinge zone. A truss model considering shear deterioration in the plastic hinge zone was proposed in order to evaluate the ductile capacity of reinforced concrete beams failing in shear after flexural yielding This model can determine the potential shear strength of the beam by using a truss model. The potential shear strength gradually decreases as the increase of the axial strain of member. When the calculated potential shear strength decreases up to the flexural yielding strength, the corresponding rotation angle is defined as the ductile capacity of the beam. The predicted ductile capacity of reinforced concrete beams is shown to be in a good agreement with experimental results.
