As concrete is most usable material in construction industry it's been required to improve its quality. Nowadays, nanotechnology offers the possibility of great advances in construction. For the first time, the nonlinear buckling of straight concrete columns armed with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) resting on foundation is investigated in the present study. The column is modelled with Euler-Bernoulli and Timoshenko beam theories. The characteristics of the equivalent composite being determined using mixture rule. The foundation around the column is simulated with spring and shear layer. Employing nonlinear strains-displacements, energy methods and Hamilton's principal, the governing equations are derived. Differential quadrature method (DQM) is used in order to obtain the buckling load of structure. The influences of volume percent of SWCNTs, geometrical parameters, elastic foundation and boundary conditions on the buckling of column are investigated. Numerical results indicate that reinforcing the concrete column with SWCNTs, the structure becomes stiffer and the buckling load increases with respect to concrete column armed with steel.

Concrete in a CFT(Concrete Filled Tube) column has enhanced strength and ductility because it is triaxially confined by a steel tube. But CFT columns are designed based on linear analyses by stress block method without the confining effect or the nonlinearity of the concrete. These make the significantly difference between the analysis results and the experimental results. Thus in this study, a nonlinear CFT column model was developed considering the confining effect on the concrete in a CFT column. This developed model was verified by experimental results from other researchers and compared with the results of various specifications. With the developed model, parametric studies were performed and the developed column model showed reasonable and accurate results.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the cause of an error of prefounded column straightness and to measure the error during Top-Down construction. There are several causes of an error of prefounded column : (1) The columns are connected by welding or other methods. (2) concrete and aggregates are put in columns. (3) The columns are constructed during the construction. The error of column straightness is different for each column, and the tilting of columns is shown in one or two directions between floors. The additional loads caused by the error of straightness may give damage to buildings.

The effective length factor of a framed column may be determined by means of the alignment chart procedure. This method is based on many unrealistic assumptions, among which is that all columns have the same stiffness parameter, which is dependent on the length, axial load, and moment of inertia of the column. A new approximate method is developed for the determination of effective length factors for columns in unbraced frames. This method takes into account the effects of inelastic column behaviour, far end conditions of the restraining beams and columns, semi-rigid beam-to-column connections, and differentiated stiffness parameters of columns. This method may be implemented on a microcomputer. A numerical study was carried out to demonstrate the extent to which the involved parameters affect the K factor. The beam-to-column connection stiffness, the stiffness parameter of columns, and the far end conditions of restraining members have a significant effect on the K factor of the column under investigation. The developed method is recommended for design purposes.

The purpose of this study is to measure the straightness of prefounded columns during underground construction stages. There are several causes of an error of prefounded column: (1) columns connected by welding or bolting, (2) by placement of concrete and aggregates around columns, (3) movement during construction, and (4) load applied during construction. The error of column straightness is different for each column, and the tilting of columns is shown in one or two directions between floors. The additional loads caused by the error of straightness may give damage to buildings. This paper presents the measurement results of column straightness, and thus providing a basis for further analysis.

Sand drain as a vertical drainage is widely used in soft ground improvement. Recently, sand, the principal source of sand drain, is running out. A laboratory model test was carried out to utilize gravel as a substitute for sand. Though which the characteristics of gravel are compared to those of sand for engineering purpose. Two cylindrical containers for the model test were filled with marine clayey soil from the west coast of Korea with a column in the center, one with sand, the other with gravel. Vibrating wire type piezometers were installed at the distance of 1.0D, 1.5D and 2.0D from the center of the column. D is the diameter of the column. The transient process of pore water pressure with loading and the characteristics of consolidation were studied with the data gained from the measuring instrument place on the surface of the container. The parameter study was performed for the marine clayey soil before and after the test in order to check the effectiveness of the improvement. The clogging effect was checked at various depth in gravel column after the test. According to the test, the settlement was found to be smaller in gravel drain than in sand drain. The increase in bearing capacity by gravel pile explains the result. The clogging effect was not found in gravel column. As a result, it is assumed that gravel is relatively acceptable as a drainage material.

주각부는 상부의 강구조와 철근콘크리트조 기초의 접합부로써 매우 중요한 부분이다. 현재 국내외 강구조 골조 공사에서 사용되는 주각부의 형식은 크게 구분하여 노출형 주각부 근권형 주각부, 매입형 주각부라고 할 수 있다. 이 중에서 부재의 재사용 및 재활용을 최우선으로 고려한다면 노출형 주각부가 가장 유리하다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 노출형 주각부의 시공 성능 및 역학적 성능을 획기적으로 개선할 수 있는 형태의 강구조 선형상 노출형 주각부를 개발하고, 구조 성능 평가를 위한 탄소성 재하실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 개발된 신형상 노출형 주각부는 수평 방향과 수직 방향의 시공 오차를 현장에서 간단히 흡수하여 기존 노출형 주각부의 시공 불량을 사전에 방지함으로써 구조 성능을 발휘한다. 또한 에너지 흡수형 고력볼트를 사용함으로써 변형 성능이 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

Seismic performance of structures depends on the force flow mechanism inside the structure. Discontinuity regions, like beam-column joints, are often affected during earthquake event due to the complex and discontinuous load paths. The evaluation of shear strength and identification of failure mode of the joint region are helpful to (i) define the strength hierarchy of the beam-column sub-assemblage, (ii) quantify the influence of different parameters on the behaviour of beam-column joint and, (iii) develop suitable and adequate strengthening scheme for the joints, if required, to obtain the desired strength hierarchy. In view of this, it is very important to estimate the joint shear strength and identify the failure modes of the joint region as it is the most critical part in any beam-column sub-assemblage. One of the most effective models is softened strut and tie model which was developed by incorporating force equilibrium, strain compatibility and constitutive laws of cracked reinforced concrete. In this study, softened strut and tie model, which incorporates force equilibrium equations, compatibility conditions and material constitutive relation of the cracked concrete, are used to simulate the shear strength behaviour and to identify failure mechanisms of the beam-column joints. The observations of the present study will be helpful to arrive at the design strategy of the joints to ensure the desired failure mechanism and strength hierarchy to achieve sustainability of structural systems under seismic loading.

본 연구의 목적은 실험적 방법을 통하여 P-${\Delta}$ 효과를 고려한 기둥항복형 강구조 골조의 안정성을 고찰하는데 있다. 이를 위하여 3개의 1층 1스팬 기둥항복형 강구조 비가새 골조에 대한 가력실험을 실시하였다. 실험의 변수로는 기둥의 강성과 축력비를 적용하였다. 실험결과 기둥의 강성 감소는 P-${\Delta}$효과를 증가시켜 골조의 안정성에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 특히 보항복형 골조와 비교하여 최대내력 도달 이후의 내력자하 현상이 다소 급격하게 나타났다. 이것은 기둥의 강성이 낮은 기둥항복형 골조의 경우 P-${\Delta}$효과의 영향이 골조의 안정성에 미치는 영향이 증가되어 나타난 현상으로 사료된다.
