인구밀도가 증가하고 매년 고층건물의 수가 늘어나고, 대부분의 사람들이 하루에 엘리베이터를 이용하는 시간이 많아짐에 따라 일상생활 속에서 엘리베이터는 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 매년 고층건물이 늘어남에 따라 고속 고층 승강기의 기술 요구 수준도 높아져 가고 있다. Carbon-fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRPs)는 높은 강성과 경량화 및 낮은 마찰력 등을 장점으로 하고 있으며, 엘리베이터용 wire rope에 매우 적합한 재료이다. 본 논문에서는 CFRP의 특성을 분석하기 위하여, wire rope와 CFRP UD의 인장 강도 및 수치 해석을 통한 벤딩 해석 비교를 진행하였다.

Wooden structures are widely used, particularly in earthquake zones, owing to their light weight, ease of application, and resistance to the external environment. In this study, we aimed to improve the mechanical properties of laminated timber beams using novel hybrid systems [carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) and wire rope]. Within the scope of this study, it is expected that using wood, which is an environmentally friendly and sustainable building element, will be more economical and safe than the reinforced concrete and steel elements currently used to pass through wide openings. The structural behavior of the hybrid-reinforced laminated timber beams was determined under the loading system. The experimental findings showed that the highest increase in the values of laminated beams reinforced with steel ropes was obtained with the 2N reinforcement, with a maximum load of 38 kN and a displacement of 137 mm. Thus, a load increase of 168% and displacement increase of 275% compared with the reference sample were obtained. Compared with the reference sample, a load increase of 92% and a displacement increase of 14% were obtained. Carbon fabrics placed between the layers with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) prevented crack development and provided significant interlayer connections. Consequently, the fabrics placed between the laminated wooden beams with the innovative reinforcement system will not disrupt the aesthetics or reduce the effect of earthquake forces, and significant reductions can be achieved in these sections.
