This study investigated and compared the acoustic characteristics of the Korean stop sound [k'] in three different phonological environments: the tensified lenis stop [k'] as observed in /prek+kaci/, the fortis stop /k'/ as in /pre+k'aci/, and the fortis stop /k'/ following an obstruent as in /prek+k'aci/. The specific research question was whether or not the tensified lenis stop shares all the acoustic features with the other two kinds of fortis stops. The acoustic measures adopted in this study were H1*-H2*, VOT, length of stop closure, and $F_0$. The major findings were that the three stops showed no significant difference in all the acoustic measures except the length of stop closure. The fortis stop /k'/ following an obstruent showed significantly longer duration of stop closure than the other two stops, both of which showed no significant difference. Based on these phonetic results, this study argued that, for the proper phonological description of post-obstruent tensification, the phonological feature [slack vocal folds] of a lenis stop should be changed into [stiff vocal folds, constricted glottis] that the fortis stops should have.

A series of tests was performed to consider the behaviour of short composite columns under axial compressive loading, covering a range of S275 and S355 grade steel square hollow section filled with normal and high strength concrete. The interaction between the steel and the concrete component is considered and the results show that concrete shrinkage has an effect on the axial strength of the column. Comparisons between Eurocode 4, ACI-318 and the Australian Standards with the findings of this research were made. Result showed the equation used by the ACI-318 and the proposed Australian Standards gave better predication for the axial capacity of concrete filled SHS columns than the Eurocode 4.

In designing PSC box girder bridge, the dead load, prestressing force, creep and shrinkage of concrete are the main factors which influence the camber and deflection of segmental concrete structure under construction. Among these factors the creep and shrinkage are the functions of the time-dependent property which, therefore, must considered with time. The prediction model for estimating creep and shrinkage of concrete has been suggested by ACI, CEB/FIP, JSCE and KSCE design code. In this study the creep and shrinkage test were carried out for four curing ages of concrete which was applied to the pretressed concrete box-girder bridge at a construction site, and the results of test were compared to the values of prediction by the design code. Shrinkage test shows that the test results are similar to KSCE-96 and JSCE-96 but very higher than other prediction model and creep test results are generally similar to ACI-209 and DSCE-96 but lower than other prediction models in contrast to shrinkage test.

The PCS system, which consists of precast concrete column and steel beam, has been developed. The system is expected to achieve the effectiveness in the constructability and improve the structural performance under earthquake. New types of joint system for the panel zon and column connection has been developed in order to improve the shear strength capacity and rigidity of the of the system. The cyclic seismic test recommended by ACI was conducted to verify the structural performance of the system. As a test results, it is observed that the system satisfy most of the requirements by ACI criteria.

Steel encased composite columns are widely used due to their excellent structural performance in terms of stiffness, strength, and ductility. However, experimental studies were usually for the columns having higher steel ratio $(3-4\%)$. There are two different design concepts for SRC columns. ACI-318 specifies the design strength of the column using the same concept of reinforced concrete columns. AISC-LRFD specifies the P-M diagram using the concept of steel column. In this paper, SRC columns have the steel ratio of $0.53\%\;and\;1.06\%$. From the test results, ACI-318 specifications showed better evaluation of SRC columns having low steel ratio. H beam and steel tube partially filled with concrete were embedded in concrete. Flexural tests showed considerably high ductility.

In this paper, long term deflection of RC beam with variable substitution ratio of recycled aggregate is investigated. 6 RC beam specimens are designed using concrete made of coarse aggregate of 25mm size, mix strength of 21MPa, slump of 12cm and air content of $5.0{\pm}1.5%$. A few concrete blocks are made and used for long term loading. The loading and deflection instrumentation are conducted following the process codified in ACI 318-05 code. Test result shows that the deflection of specimens depends on the compressive strength of concrete. And it is concluded that the deflection of RC beam can be predicted like normal beam using ACI formula if certain level of compressive strength is acquired even recycled aggregate is used in making the beam.

Recently, many design standards recommend the use of a strut-tie model approach for design of structural concrete with D-region(s). However, since the design standards of the conventional strut-tie model approaches are suggested on the assumption of using a determinate strut-tie model, it is difficult to apply an indeterminate strut-tie model in the design of continuous deep beams. In this study, an indeterminate strut-tie model for continuous deep beams is proposed to resolve the problem, and the ultimate strengths of 35 continuous deep beams tested to failure are evaluated for the validity check of the proposed indeterminate strut-tie model. The analytical results by the proposed model are compared with those by the conventional approaches of ACI 318-99 and ACI 318-05.

지금까지 국내에서는 콘크리트의 크리프에 관한 실험적 연구가 많이 진행되지 못하여 해당 구조물의 설계기술 도입국의 규준에 따라 크리프를 예측해왔다. 그러나 예측된 크리프 모델이 국내 콘크리트 재료의 특성에 적합한지에 대한 실험적 검증은 제대로 이루어지지 않고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 국내에서 프리스트레스 콘크리트 구조물에 적용하는 실용 고강도 콘크리트의 크리프 값을 예측하기 위해 동일한 설계기준강도를 갖는 세 가지 배합에 대하여 재령별로 크리프 시험을 수행하고 이 실험결과를 ACI, CEB/FIB, KSCE, JSCE규준들의 크리프 예측식과 비교 분석하였다.시험결과와 이들규준들에 대한 비교분석에 의하면 CEB/FIB-90 크리프 예측식은 비교적 과대 평가되고 ACI 209-92와 JSCE-96의 경우는 과소 평가되었으나 콘크리트 표준시방서 KSCE -96 크리프 예측식은 비교적 시험결과에 근접하는 것으로 평가되었다. 그러나 구성재료의 양적 변동에 '따른 배합별 시험결과의 차이를 반영할 수 있는 점이 보완되어야 할 것으로 보며 향후 많은 실험결과를 바탕으로 국내에서 생산되는 콘크리트에 대하여 보다 정확히 크리프를 예측할 수 있는 연구가 필요하다.

In this paper, regulation for form work in standard specification among Korea and foreign countries are studied and compared. Within the scope of this paper, regulation regarding fabrication of form and form removal are mainly focused on. Standard specification prescribed by construction temporary equipment association provides detailed regulations and well arranged. ACI 347-04, CEB-FIP and BS EN 13670 had different style and scope compared to domestic specification. Especially, regulation for form removal in ACI prescribed in terms of minimum period.

Generally, a lot of reinforcements are used in nuclear power plant concrete structures in order to improve the structural safety, but it may cause several potential problems due to the overcrowded reinforcement, such as the degradation of concrete quality, the construction delay and the increase of construction cost. In order to resolve these problems, structural test researches and code change studies on using high-strength reinforcement (Gr.80) in unclear power plant structures are under way, and there is good progress in code change of ASM BPVC.III.2 and ACI 349. This purpose of this study is to review the code change status ASM BPVC.III.2, ACI 349 under way to use the high-strength reinforcement in nuclear power plant structures. Also I will introduce the design optimization of NPP structures with high-strength reinforcements in order to maximize the effect and minimize the problem when using the high-strength reinforcements in NPP structures.
