This study is a fundamental research in order to establish the design code of recycled aggregate concrete structure. The structural properties of recycled aggregate concrete such as flexure, shear, fatigue, compression, and bond development are experimentally investigated and confirmed. In this study, laboratory-scale reinforced concrete beam, column, and pull-out test specimens using recycled coarse aggregate are manufactured. Then, the structural performances of recycled aggregate concrete according to replacement ratios of recycled coarse aggregate are evaluated. Also, finite element analysis using commercial code DIANA is carried out to predict the test results and the analysis results are compared with test results in this study. Structural test results showed that the structural performances of recycled aggregate concrete specimens with 60% replacement ratio are reduced by approximately 15-20%. These results indicated that the replacement ratio of recycled coarse aggregate within 30% is a suitable to use for structural members. The results of finite element analysis showed that the specimens with 30% replacement ratio possessed similar or more excellent structural performance than normal concrete specimens. However, recycled aggregate concrete with 60% replacement ratio of recycled coarse aggregate must be carefully considered for structural applications due to significant decrease of the failure loads.

The growing use of unprotected or partially protected steelwork in buildings has caused a lively debate regarding the safety of this form of construction. A good deal of recent research has indicated that steel members have a substantial inherent ability to resist fire so that additional fire protection can be either reduced or eliminated completely. A performance based philosophy also extends the study into the effect of structural continuity and the performance of the whole structural totality. As part of the structural system, thermal expansion during the heating phase or contraction during the cooling phase in most beams is likely to be restrained by adjacent parts of the whole system or sub-frame assembly due to compartmentation. This has not been properly addressed before. This paper describes an experimental programme in which unprotected steel beams were tested under load while it is restrained between two columns and additional horizontal restraints with particular concern on the effect of catenary action in the beams when subjected to large deflection at very high temperature. This paper also presents a three-dimensional mathematical modelling, based on the finite element method, of the series of fire tests on the part-frame. The complete analysis starts with an evaluation of temperature distribution in the structure at various time levels. It is followed by a detail 3-D finite element analysis on its structural response as a result of the changing temperature distribution. The principal part of the analysis makes use of an existing finite element package FEAST. The effect of columns being fire-protected and the beam being axially restrained has been modelled adequately in terms of their thermal and structural responses. The consequence of the beam being restrained is that the axial force in the restrained beam starts as a compression, which increases gradually up to a point when the material has deteriorated to such a level that the beam deflects excessively. The axial compression force drops rapidly and changes into a tension force leading to a catenary action, which slows down the beam deflection from running away. Design engineers will be benefited with the consideration of the catenary action.

The effect of structure size on the nominal strength of unidirectional fiber-polymer composites, failing by propagation of a kink band with fiber microbuckling, is analyzed experimentally and theoretically. Tests of novel geometrically similar carbon-PEEK specimens, with notches slanted so as to lead to a pure kink band (without shear or splitting cracks), are conducted. The specimens are rectangular strips of widths 15.875, 31.75. and 63.5 mm (0.625, 1.25 and 2.5 in and gage lengths 39.7, 79.375 and 158.75 mm (1.563, 3.125 and 6.25 in.). They reveal the existence of a strong (deterministic. non-statistical) size effect. The doubly logarithmic plot of the nominal strength (load divided by size and thickness) versus the characteristic size agrees with the approximate size effect law proposed for quasibrittle failures in 1983 by Bazant This law represents a gradual transition from a horizontal asymptote, representing the case of no size effect (characteristic of plasticity or strength criteria), to an asymptote of slope -1/2 (characteristic of linear elastic fracture mechanics. LEFM) . The size effect law for notched specimens permits easy identification of the fracture energy of the kink bandand the length of the fracture process zone at the front of the band solely from the measurements of maximum loads. Optimum fits of the test results by the size effect law are obtained, and the size effect law parameters are then used to identify the material fracture characteristics, Particularly the fracture energy and the effective length of the fracture process zone. The results suggest that composite size effect must be considered in strengthening existing concrete structural members such as bridge columns and beams using a composite retrofitting technique.

철골-콘크리트 합성 기둥(이하 SC 합성 기둥)은 철골 플랜지 사이를 연결재로 용접하고, 이런 플랜지 사이에 콘크리트를 채워 시공성과 경제성을 얻을 수 있는 새로운 합성 부재이다. 이 연구의 전단계로서 비조밀단면을 사용한 SC 합성 기둥의 축력 실험을 통해 구조 내력이 우수하다는 것을 입증하였으나, 기둥의 특성상 축력과 휨을 동시에 받고 있기 때문에 후속 실험 연구가 필요하게 되었다. 따라서 일정 축력을 받는 비조밀단면을 가진 SC 합성 기둥의 휨 성능을 강축 및 약축 방향으로 실험을 실시하여 각국 기준식과 비교하여 분석하였다. 실험 결과 모든 방향에 대해서 각국 기준식에서 제시하고 있는 축력-휨 모멘트 내력식을 만족하는 결과를 보이고 있었다. 특히 AISC-LRFD 기준식은 합성 기둥의 내력을 지나치게 안전측으로 고려하고 있다. 또한 추후 SC 합성 기둥의 축력-휨 모멘트 내력식은 EC4 기준식으로 산정하는 것이 철골과 콘크리트의 적합 조건을 고려하지 않은 일본 기준식과 약축 방향 내력을 산정하기 어려운 ACI 기준식보다는 바람직하다.

A mechanical model was developed to predict the behavior of point-loaded RC slender beams (a/d > 2.5) without stirrups. It is commonly accepted by most researchers that a diagonal tension crack plays a predominant role in the failure mode of these beams, but the failure mechanism of these members is still debatable. In this paper, it was assumed that diagonal tension failure was triggered by the concrete cover splitting due to the dowel action at the initial location of diagonal tension cracks, which propagate from flexural cracks. When concrete cover splitting occurred, the shape of a diagonal tension crack was simultaneously developed, which can be determined from the principal tensile stress trajectory. This fictitious crack rotates onto the crack tip with load increase. During the rotation, all forces acting on the crack (i.e, dowel force of longitudinal bars, vertical component of concrete tensile force, shear force by aggregate interlock, shear force in compression zone) were calculated by considering the kinematical conditions such as crack width or sliding. These forces except for the shear force in the compression zone were uncoupled with respect to crack width and sliding by the proposed constitutive relations for friction along the crack. Uncoupling the shear forces along the crack was aimed at distinguishing each force from the total shear force and clarifying the failure mechanism of RC slender beams without stirrups. In addition, a proposed method deriving the dowel force of longitudinal bars made it possible to predict the secondary shear failure. The proposed model can be used to predict not only the entire behavior of point-loaded RC slender shear beams, but also the ultimate shear strength. The experiments used to validate the proposed model are reported in a companion paper.

In this paper, a Performance Based Design (PBD) approach is validated for multi-storey concentrically braced frame (CBF) systems. Direct Displacement Based Design (DDBD) procedure is used and validated by designing 4- and 12-storey CBF buildings. Nonlinear time history analysis (NLTHA) is used to check the performance of the design methodology by employing different accelerograms having displacement spectra matching the design displacement spectrum. Displacements and drifts obtained from NLTHA are found to fall within the design displacement limits used in the DDBD procedure. In NLTHA, both tension and compression members are found to be resisting the base shear, $F_b$, not only the tension members as assumed in the design methodology and suggested by Eurocode 8. This is the reason that the total $F_b$ in NLTHA is found to be greater than the design shear forces. Furthermore, it is found that the average of the maximum ductility values recorded from the time history analyses for the 4-and 12-storey buildings are close to the design ductility obtained from the DDBD methodology and ductility expressions established by several researchers. Moreover, the DDBD is compared to the Forced Based Design (FBD) methodology for CBFs. The comparison is carried out by designing 4 and 12-storey CBF buildings using both DDBD and FBD methodologies. The performance for both methodologies is verified using NLTHA. It is found that the $F_b$ from FBD is larger than $F_b$ obtained from DDBD. This leads to the use of larger sections for the structure designed by FBD to resist the lateral forces.

전통적인 비선형 유한요소해석은 모델링이 복잡하고 어려운 해석기법이 필요로 한다. 게다가 해석결과가 응력-변형률 관계로 도출되므로 그 결과를 분석하거나 설계에 활용하기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 설계 지향적인 수치해석방법으로 트러스 모델을 이용한 비선형 해석방법을 개발하였다. 해석하고자 하는 철근콘크리트 부재를 길이방향, 직각방향, 대각방향의 트러스요소로 이상화한다. 기본적으로 각 요소는 철근과 콘크리트의 복합체이며, 주기해석을 위하여 철근과 콘크리트 요소를 위한 간략화된 비선형 주기이력모델을 적용하였다. 제안된 방법의 검증을 위하여 전단경간비, 하중조건, 철근량, 배근형태 등이 다른 다양한 전단지배 보와 벽체에 대하여 비선형해석을 수행하였고, 예측된 비탄성강도, 에너지소산능력, 변형능력, 파괴유형 등을 실험 결과와 비교하였다. 해석결과, 철근콘크리트 부재의 변형능력을 예측하기 위해서는 반복적인 인장-압축을 받는 콘크리트 스트럿에 사용되는 압축연화모델이 부재특성에 따라 수정되어야 함이 밝혀졌다.

The spectral analysis of surface waves (SASW) method, which is an in-situ seismic technique, has mainly been developed and used for many years to determine the stiffness profile of layered media (such as asphalt concrete and layered soils) in an infinite half-space. This paper presents a modified experimental technique for nondestructive evaluation of in-place cement mortar compressive strength in single-layer concrete slabs of rather a finite thickness through a correlation to surface wave velocity. This correlation can be used in the quality control of early age cement mortar structures and in evaluating the integrity of structural members where the infinite half space condition is not met. In the proposed SASW field test, the surface of the structural members is subjected to an impact, using a 12 mm steel ball, to generate surface wave energy at various frequencies. Two accelerometer receivers detect the energy transmitted through the medium. By digitizing the analog receiver outputs, and recording the signals for spectral analysis, surface wave velocities can be identified. Modifications to the SASW method includes the reduction of boundary reflections as adopted on the surface waves before the point where the reflected compression waves reach the receivers. In this study, the correlation between the surface wave velocity and the compressive strength of cement mortar is developed using one 36"x36"x4"(91.44$\times$91.44$\times$91.44 cm) cement mortar slab of 2,000 psi (140 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$) and two 36"x36"x4"(91.44$\times$91.44$\times$91.44 cm) cement mortar slabs of 3,000 psi (210 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$).

본 연구에서는 압축강도 1400 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ 를 갖는 불포화 폴리에스터 폴리머 콘크리트를 이용하여 제작한 C형 시험체에 대한 편심압축 시험을 통하여 폴리머 콘크리트 휨부재의 응력-변형률 관계를 구명하고 등가직사각형 응력블럭의 파라미터 $\alpha$, $\beta$1, ${\gamma}$를 산출하였다. 아울러 인장철근비를 달리하는 5종의 전단스팬비 4.0인 철근 보강 폴리머 콘크리트 보에 대한 휨시험에서 얻어진 극한모멘트 시험값과 C형 시험체 응력-변형률 곡선에서 산출되는 파라미터 $\alpha$=0.61, $\beta$1=0.73 를 이용하여 계산된 이론적인 극한모멘트 값을 비교하여 보았던 바, 인장철근비가 0.50 $\rho$b 이상일때 시험값과 이론값이 비교적 잘 부합됨을 확인 할 수 있었다. 그러나 폴리머 콘크리트 휨 부재에 대한 보다 정확한 설계기준의 마련을 위해서는 압축강도와 크기를 변수로 하는 C형 시험체에 대한 보다 많은 시험을 통한 파라미터의 체계적인 연구가 필요하다.
