This study examined the structural behaviors and ultimate loads of assembled system scaffolds by load tests. Considering the number of bay and bracing installation, four specimens were tested. The bays were divided into 1 bay and 2 bays, with and without the bracing member installed. Failure modes and horizontal displacements show that the whole column buckled without showing no point of inflection in the column, regardless of whether or not braces were installed. Thus, the current design method of selecting the vertical spacing between the horizontal members of the system scaffold as the effective buckling length underestimates the effective buckling length. In case of 1 bay specimens, the ultimate loads between specimens with and with bracing members are similar. However, in case of 2 bay specimens, the specimen with bracing members shows the increased ultimate load of 36% compared with that without bracing members. In addition, as the number of bays in the system scaffold increases, the ultimate load of the unit vertical column increases in case of the specimen with bracing installation. However, in the specimen without bracing members, the ultimate load of the unit column reduces with the increment of the number of bays due to the torsional buckling. Therefore, it is essential to install bracing members to increase the whole strength of system scaffolds and the ultimate load of the unit column.

This study performs reliability analysis of three-dimensional temporary shoring structures with three different models. The first model represents a field model which does not have diagonal bracing members. The installation of bracing members is often neglected in the field for convenience. The second model corresponds to a design model which has the bracing members with the hinge connection of horizontal and bracing members at joints. The third model is similar to the second model but the hinge connection is replaced with partial rotational stiffness. The reliability analysis results revealed that the vertical members of the three models are safe enough in terms of axial force, but the vertical and horizontal members exhibit a big difference among the three models in terms of combination stress of axial force and bi-axial bending moments. The field model showed significant increase in failure probability for the horizontal member, and thus the results demonstrate that the bracing member should be installed necessarily for the safety of the temporary shoring structures.

For the reason of economy, farmers and structural engineers prefer the vinyl house frame members that have the lightest cross sections. Therefore, in order to reach this aim, rod bracing system is the best method for multiple vinyl house frames. In this study, wire rods (tension members) are used to be bracing members in multiple vinyl house frames. The effects of additional wire rods in the frames are investigated by the variations of the bending moments, axial forces, displacements and combined stresses in the main frames that are reinforced by different shapes of rod bracing system. Vinyl house frames are usually made by steel pipe members and collapsed by the excessive wind and snow loads. Two kinds of bracing models are used for wind and snow loads separately in this study. The effective bracing models for each load are finally figured out.

To minimize the compliance of frame, a method to optimize the topology of bracing system in a frame is presented. The frame is first filled uniformly with a truss-like continuum, in which there are an infinite number of members. The frame and truss-like continuum are analysed by the finite element method altogether. By optimizing the distribution of members in the truss-like continuum over the whole design domain, the optimal bracing pattern is determined. As a result, the frame's lateral stiffness is enforced. Structural compliance and displacement are decreased greatly with a smaller increase in material volume. Since optimal bracing systems are described by the distribution field of members, rather than by elements, fewer elements are needed to establish the detailed structure. Furthermore, no numerical instability exists. Therefore it has high calculation effectiveness.

The primary purpose of using bracings is to improve tile lateral rigidity of main structural system, i.e., columns and beams, by reinforcing them with much smaller members. Conventional design methods consider bracings as tension-only mambers, since difficulties arise in the analysis to consider the P - effects and post-buckling behaviour of the bracing members. This is particulary true for X-bracings. Recently, however, both analytical and experimental studies have been conducted to investigate the more precise and real behaviour of bracing members, especially for the nonlinear un plastic behaviour under cyclic loads. In this study, an analytical model is proposed to investigate the nonlinear behavior of steel bracing members subjected to cyclic loads. Results of tile analysis were compared with previous experimental results, and good agreements were obtained between these results.

브레이싱재를 사용하는 목적은 본 골조체계 즉 기둥과 보에 비해 단면(강성)이 작은 부재로 보강하여 횡력에 대한 강성효과를 크게 향상시키기 위함이다. 브레이싱재의 단면이 기둥과 보의 단면에 비해 월등히 작기 때문에 압축력에 의한 좌굴의 위험성과 휨량의 크기에 비례하여 부재 중앙에 발생되는 추가 모멘트(P-.DELTA. Effect)에 의한 불리한 영향 및 해석상의 어려움 때문에 브레이싱의 설계에 있어서 브레이싱재는 압축력을 받지 않는 것으로 간주하여 왔다. 그러나 최근 들어 구조물 해석에 정확도가 요구되어짐에 따라 브레이싱재의 정확한 거동에 대한 연구가 실험을 통해 활발히 진행되어 왔고, 특히 탄성한계를 지난 소성상태에서 반복하중에 의한 거동 규명이 큰 관심을 끌고 있다. 본 논문에서는 반복하중을 받는 강재 브레이싱재의 비선형 거동을 해석적 방법에 의해 규명했고, 그 결과를 실험결과와 비교하였다.

Cable structures are lightweight structures of flexible type, cable members have only axial stiffness related to tension, they can carry neither bending nor compression. This study is the analysis of cable truss systems are composed of upper and low cables by connecting bracing cables, the structural principle is based on a tensegrity system by using bracing tension members, discontinuous compression members and continuous tension members. A hanging roof of cable truss system is too flexible against vertical loads, most cable members are stabilized by connecting the prestressed upper and lower cable by bracing cables. A cable truss roof system is formed by adding a set of cables with reverse curvature to the suspension cables. With the sets of cables having opposite curvature to each other, cable truss is able to carry vertical load in both upward and downward direction with equal effectiveness, and then a cable truss acts as load bearing elements by the assemble of ridge cables, valley cables and bracing cables. This paper will be shown the geometric non-linear analysis result of cable truss systems with various sag ratio for deflections and tensile forces, the analytical results are compared with the results of other researchers.

Steel -Concrete Composite two girder railway bridges applying high performance steel with extra thick plate have economic and aesthetic advantages due to the simplification of manufacturing and construction process. However, steel bridges are seldom adopted in domestic railway bridge, since steel bridges are not efficient as R.C bridges considering dynamic characteristics and noise, etc. While highway bridges do not have lower horizontal bracing and larger interval of diaphragm cross beam, railway bridges install lower horizontal bracings to control the torsion due to heavy eccentrical line load. Accurate finite element analysis were performed with the parameters of existence of bracing and bracing shape, with the cross beam interval and stiffness, etc. To find out the effects of secondary members such as horizontal bracings and diaphragms, static md dynamic analysis have been performed by using finite element method. In this study, few member plate-girder bridges are analyzed with variable span lengths to examine the dynamic behavior and limits of damping. And though lateral bracings are members against torsion, but lateral bracing's absence is no big problem. Time history analysis using mode superposition method makes proof of this result.

본 연구의 목적은 가새 골조에서 사용되는 가새 부재를 보강하여 가새 골조의 이력 거동을 향상시키는 것이다. HSS(Hollow Structural Section) 가새 부재는 국부 좌굴의 발생으로 인하여 인장측 성능에 비해 압축측 성능이 취약한 단점이 있다. 국부 좌굴의 심각성을 감소시키기 위하여 가새 부재에 콘크리트를 충전하는 방법이 사용되었다. Lee and Goel(1987)의 연구 결과에 따르면 콘크리트 충전은 HSS 가새 부재의 국부좌굴의 심각성을 감소시켜 파괴 수명을 증가시켰으나, 가새 부재 중앙부의 국부좌굴을 방지하지 못하여 지속적인 압축 강도의 저감이 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 가새 부재의 압축 강도를 증가시키고 중앙부의 국부 좌굴을 방지하기 위하여 콘크리트 충전 HSS 가새 부재의 중앙부를 리브로 보강한 실험체를 제작하여 실험하였다. 이를 위하여 리브 보강길이를 변수로 한 총 4개의 실물 크기의 가새 부재를 제작하였다. 하중은 압축과 인장이 대칭인 하중이력을 사용하였다. 본 실험에서 좌굴 모드, 사이클 최대 압축강도와 에너지 소산능력에서 나타난 리브 보강 가새 부재의 성능은 리브 보강길이에 따라 다르게 나타났으며, 63%의 길이로 보강한 실험체가 가장 우수한 성능을 나타내었다.

This study investigated the out-of-plane elastic buckling load and effective length factor of X-bracing system. The members of X-bracing system which are studied in this paper are rigidly attached to the structure at their end connections, and are pinned or rigidly connected at their point of intersection. The effective length factors are derived for the general case where the tension and compression brace have different material and geometrical properties.
