최근 ACI Joumal에는 12,000 psi(약 840Kg/㎠)의 콘크리트를 현장에서 비벼 넣어 지은 건물이 소개되었다. 그러니까 우리나라에서 고작 210㎏/㎠ 콘크리트로 아파트를 짓는 것은 후진국의 틀에서 벗어나지 못한 증거라면서 고강도 콘크리트의 도입을 부추기게 되었는데 문제는 그 자체가 나쁘게 아니라 이를 기회로 품질관리도 제대로 못하는 주제에 외형만 본받는 아파트 설계를 하게 된 데에 있다는 것이다.

현재 구조해석의 컴퓨터 응용과 건축설계도면작성의 컴퓨터 응용이 개별적으로 개발되는 경우가 많은데 한꺼번에 모든 시스템을 일련으로 연결하는 것은 쉬운 일이 아니므로, 우선 구조해석의 자료를 그대로 이용할 수 있는 골조도면작성의 컴퓨터 응용프로그램을 개발함으로써 앞으로 건축설계도면작성 프로그램과 연결도 고려할 수 있다고 본다. 본 CAD시스템은 현재에는 국내에서 통용되고 있는 건설부 규준에 의거하여 개발되었고, ACI의 극한강도 설계법으로 sub-program을 수정하여 이용할 수 있겠다.

Presented is a study on the determination of crack width and crack spacing in the reinforced concrete flexural members. The derivation of crack width and crack spacing is based on the recently developed cracking theory. The new prediction formulas for the crack widths and crack spacings are proposed. An experiment for the reinforced concrete beams was conducted to compare with the proposed formulas. The comparisons of the present prediction formulas with our tests and other test data show good agreement. The present crack width formula has been also compared with the well-known ACI formula originally proposed by Gergely & Lutz. It was found that the present crack width formula shows better correlation with test data than that of Gergely & Lutz.

An analytical model was developed for predicting the pullout behavior of straight beam longitudinal bars anchored at exterior beam-column connections. The model incorporates a local bond constitutive simulation capable of considering the effects of anchored bar diameter, yield strength and the spacing, concrete compressive strength, and column pressure on the bond characteristics of deformed bars in confined conditions of exterior joints. The analytical techniques adopted in this study were shown to satisfactorily predict the results of pullout tests on straight bars embedded in confined concrete specimens. An evaluation of the ACI-ASCE Committee 352 development length requirements in exterior joint conditions was made using the developed analytical approach. The results of this analytical evaluation are indicative of the conservatism of the current development length requirements in the confined conditions of exterior joints.

Investigations of low-rice unbounded reinforced concrete shear walls with or without openings are performed with comparison of analytical and experimental results. Theoretical analysis is based on nonlinear finite element algorithm, which incorporates concrete failure criterion and nonlinear constitutive relationships. Studios focus on the effects of height-to-length ratio of shear walls, opening ratio, horizontal and vertical reinforcement radios, and diagonal reinforcement. Analytical solutions conform well with experimental results. Equations for cracking, yielding and ultimate loads with corresponding lateral displacements are derived by regression using analytical results and experimental data. Also, failure modes of low-rise unbounded shear walls are theoretically investigated. An explanation of change in failure mode is ascertained by comparing analytical results and ACI code equations. Shear-flexural failure can be obtained with additional flexural reinforcement to increase a wall's capacity. This concept leads to a design method of reducing flexural reinforcement in low-rise bounded solid shear wall's. Avoidance of shear failure as well as less reinforcement congestion leer these walls is expected.

The aim of this study is to provide experimental data regarding the compressive, shear and torsional strength of self-compacting concrete (SCC) used in rectangular beams, and then comparing the results with the equations presented by the CSA A23.3-04 and ACI 318-11. In fact, the gathered information in this field is quite useful for calibrating the computer models of other researchers. The other goal of this study was to investigate the effects of silica fume and superplasticizer dosages on the mechanical properties of SCC. In this research, SCC is made based on 16 different type mixing layout. Also two normal concrete (NC) or vibrating concrete are constructed to compare the results of SCC and NC. This work concentrated on concrete mixes having water/binder ratios of 0.45 and 0.35, which contained constant total binder contents of $400kg/m^3$ and $500kg/m^3$, respectively. The percentages of silica fume that replaced cement were 0% and 10%. The superplasticizer dosages utilized in the mixtures were 0.4%, 0.8%, 1.2% and 1.6% of the weight of cement. Beam dimensions used in this test were $30{\times}30{\times}120cm^3$. The results of this research indicated that shear and torsional strength of SCC beams to be used in computer models can be calculated utilizing the equations presented in CSA A23.3-04 and ACI 318-11.

본 연구는 비부착 긴장재를 갖는 부재에 대한 일련의 연구중 두 번째에 해당한다. 첫 번째 연구(1)에서는 기존연구의 제안식과 현행의 ACI 규준의 문제점을 고찰하고 기존의 총 167개 실험결과와 비교·분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 소성힌지 길이 개념과 변형도 적합조건에 의해서 비부착 긴장재의 응력을 평가할 수 있는 방법에 대한 검토를 통하여, 새로운 설계식을 제안하였다. 이는 이론적인 분석에 의한 변수설정과 기존 실험결과를 이용한 중회귀분석법을 사용하였다. 그리고 제안된 설계식을 기존의 식들과 비교하여 좋은 결과를 얻었으며, 제안된 설계식의 특성을 다음과 같이 설명하였다. (1)비부착 긴장재의 응력산정시 유효프리스트레스, 일반철근의 양, 작용하중의 형태 등은 중요한 변수로 작용할 수 있으므로 설계식에 고려하는 것이 바람직하다. (2)비부착 긴장재의 응력산정식은 현행 ACI 규준식과는 다르게 fc'/ p항의 제곱근과 비례하는 함수관계에 있다. (3)스팬-춤비가 비부착 긴장재의 응력에 미치는 영향은 소성힌지 길이의 개념에 의해서 역학적으로 타당하게 설명할 수 ldT다.

Optimization scheme is presented for the design of precast prestressed double-tee beams used as slabs in the parking or market structures. The objective considered is defined by a function that minimizes the hight of the double-tee beam, including the prefabricated element and the concrete topping poured in a second phase. The Sequential Quadratic Programming method is adopted to solve the problem. As an example 12 double-tee beams are designed with the design loads of the current design code of our country. The results from optimization process show that at least 29cm less in overall height than that designed by PCI design handbook. The section determined from the optimization process was refined for practical considerations. A MathCad 7.0 Pro Spreadsheet was prepared to verify all ACI requirements for flexure, shear and deflections. Flexural tests are performed on four full-scale 12.5m prototype models and show that all the specimens are fully comply the flexural strength requirements as specified by ACI 318-95. The present optimization scheme can be used for wider application of the design of precast prestressed double-tee beams with different materials and configurations particularly for in a large scale or for important designs.

In the previous study in relation to the current study, a test program for the verification of the proposed design equation was carried with fourteen prestressed concrete beams with unbonded tendons. Experimental results were compared with the computed results by the proposed design equations. The previous design equations are ACI code, AASHTO LRFD code, the analysis equation with the strain compatibility, Harajli/Kanj' design equation, Chakrabarti' design equation. As a result of comparative studies, it turned out that the proposed design equation could predict the ultimate tendon stress with comparatively high accuracy.

Prestressed concrete (PC) is the predominant material in highway bridge construction. The use of high-strength concrete has gained wide acceptance in the PC industry. The main target in the highway industry is to increase the durability and the life-span of bridges. Cracking of elements is one aspect which affects durability. Recently, nine 7.62 meter long PC I-beams made with different concrete strength were designed according to a simple, semi-empirical equation developed at the University of Houston (UH) (Laskar et al., ACI Journal 107(3): 330-339, 2010). The UH Method is a function of shear span-to-depth ratio (a/d), concrete strength $\sqrt{f^{\prime}_c}$, web area $b_wd$, and amount of transverse steel. Based on testing these girders, the shear cracking strength of girders with different concrete strength and different shear span-to-depth ratio was investigated and compared to the available approaches in current codes such as ACI 318-11 (2011) and AASHTO LRFD Specifications (2010).
