The purpose of this study is to investigate the steel bar corrosion and degree of reinforced concrete bridge, and analyze the cause of corrosion occurrence. Therefore they could ensure the durability and stability as to suggest the corrosion prevention of reinforced concrete structure. To study the corrosion state reinforced concrete structure, We investigate the cover of concrete, the compressive strength by schmidt hammer, the neutralization test of site, the compressive strength of core and the measurement of neutralized depth. As the results of test, the corrosion-grade of reinforced concrete structure which the degree of corrosion is 3, 4 degree get to 18% in the used time of 40 years and the time elapsed of 25 years. Therefore the corrosion of steel bar give rise to public discussion. The degree of corrosion is serious, and the neutralization come to the cover of concrete.

The correlation between sensor output and corrosion rate of reinforcing steel was evaluated by laboratory electrochemical tests in saturated $Ca(OH)_2$ with 3.5 wt.% NaCl and confirmed in concrete environment. In this paper, two types of electrochemical probes were developed: galvanic cells containing of steel/copper and steel/stainless steel couples. Potentiodynamic test, weight loss measurement, monitoring of open-circuit potential, linear polarization resistance (LPR) measurement and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to evaluate the corrosion behavior of steel bar embedded in concrete. Also, galvanic current measurements were conducted to obtain the charge of sensor embedded in concrete. In this study, steel/copper and steel/stainless steel sensors showed a good correlation in simulated concrete solution between sensor output and corrosion rate of steel bar. However, there was no linear relationship between steel/stainless steel sensor output and corrosion rate of steel bar in concrete environment due to the low galvanic current output. Thus, steel/copper sensor is a reliable corrosion monitoring sensor system which can detect corrosion rate of reinforcing steel in concrete structures.

This paper presents the application of multi-gene genetic programming (MGP) technique for modeling the bond strength of ribbed steel bars in concrete. In this regard, the experimental data of 264 splice beam tests from different technical papers were used for training, validating and testing the model. Seven basic parameters affecting on the bond strength of steel bars were selected as input parameters. These parameters are diameter, relative rib area and yield strength of steel bar, minimum concrete cover to bar diameter ratio, splice length to bar diameter ratio, concrete compressive strength and transverse reinforcement index. The results show that the proposed MGP model can be alternative approach for predicting the bond strength of ribbed steel bars in concrete. Moreover, the performance of the developed model was compared with the building codes' empirical equations for a complete comparison. The study concludes that the proposed MGP model predicts the bond strength of ribbed steel bars better than the existing building codes' equations. Using the proposed MGP model and building codes' equations, a parametric study was also conducted to investigate the trend of the input variables on the bond strength of ribbed steel bars in concrete.

Reinforced concrete structure resist to external load caused by integration of steel bar and concrete and this integration is obtained from bond stress between steel bar and concrete. Researches of bond stress between steel bar and concrete have been performed by many researcher, but existent researches of bond stress are concerned with compression strength of well cured concrete and insufficient study of bond stress according to early material. The secure regular strength of concrete in early age is caused by rapid velocity of early hardening process, but questionable bond stress in early age is proportion to strength of that. So this study performed experiments to compare bond stress according to material age and compression strength. The result is showed that bonding strength in early material age compare the ratio of concrete compression strength with the ratio of maximum bond stress the later inferior on the former.

콘크리트 표면에 4개의 전극배열을 이용한 비파괴 표면측정법을 통하여 철근의 피복을 벗겨내지 않고도 콘크리트 내 철근의 부식상태 및 철근의 배치상태를 추정할 수 있다. 표면측정법 모델링은 부식된 철근과 주위 콘크리트사이의 계면 임피던스가 콘크리트 표면에서 측정된 임피던스와 어떤 관련이 있는지를 보여준다. 본 연구에서는 콘크리트에 매립된 철근 크기와 콘크리트 피복두께 등의 탐지를 위하여 철근부식 표면측정 모델링을 이용하였다. 모델링 결과 철근 크기가 D10에서 D35로 커짐에 따라 표면임피던스 변화가 나타났으며, 또한 콘크리트 피복두께가 0.02 m에서 0.1 m로 커짐에 따라 그 변화에 대한 영향이 표면측정 임피던스를 통해 나타났다. 그러므로 표면측정법 모델링을 통하여 콘크리트 내 철근부식반응을 시뮬레이션 할 수 있으며, 동시에 철근직경과 매입 깊이 등에 대한 정보도 얻을 수 있음 알 수 있다.

In this paper, to seek a solution of reducing autogenous shrinkage three types of bar restricted concrete specimens which have similar compressive strength were tested. The three type of concrete were plain concrete-P25 type, $10^{\circ}C$ fly-ash replaced concrete-F10 type, and $1^{\circ}C$ expansion admixture replaced concrete-SP1 type, and with the test result an experimental study was conducted to gain the tensile stress of concrete. From the result of P25, SP1, F10 tests, it was found that by the age of 14 the ratios of tensile stress to tensile strength of three specimens are $75^{\circ}C$, $47^{\circ}C$, $52^{\circ}C$ respectively. so we came to a conclusion that the SP1-type concrete has better capacity to reduce autogenous shrinkage than F10-type concrete at similar compressive strength condition.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the behavior and strength of prestressed concrete deep beams using nonlinear analysis. By using a sophisticated nonlinear finite element analysis program, the accuracy and objectivity of the assessment process can be enhanced. A computer program, the RCAHEST (Reinforced Concrete Analysis in Higher Evaluation System Technology), was used for the analysis of reinforced concrete structures. Tensile, compressive and shear models of cracked concrete and models of reinforcing and prestressing steel were used to account for the material nonlinearity of prestressed concrete. The smeared crack approach was incorporated. A bonded or unbonded prestressing bar element is used based on the finite element method, which can represent the interaction between the prestressing bars and concrete of a prestressed concrete member. The proposed numerical method for the evaluation of behavior and strength of prestressed concrete deep beams is verified by comparing its results with reliable experimental results.

Measurement of the strength of concrete is an important indicator of the safety of the fresh as well as old concrete structures. It is possible to evaluate the strength of the concrete by means of an ultrasonic velocity method which is a kind of non-destructive inspection method for safety diagnostic evaluation of the building structures with aging. Steel embedded in the concrete and age of the concrete may affect ultrasonic pulse velocity. In order to accurately assess the strength of the concrete, it is necessary to understand rebar embedded in the concrete, steel shapes in various forms which effect ultrasonic pulse velocity. In this study, by measuring the velocity of ultrasonic waves generated when the waves pass through the ultrasonic pulse in a direction perpendicular to the reinforcing bars embedded in concrete, the effect of reinforcing bars on ultrasonic velocity accurately was verified and used to estimate the strength of the concrete.

For the prediction of concrete-steel bond ability in reinforced concrete, many countries establish specifications for the pullout test. But these methods hardly to consider many parameters such as strength, shape, diameter and location of steel, concrete restrict condition by loading plate, strength of concrete and cover depth etc, and it is difficult to solve concentration and disturbance of stress. The purpose of this study is to propose a New Ring Test method which can be rational quantity evaluations of bond splitting mechanism. For this purpose, pullout test was carried out to assess the effect of several variables on bond splitting properties between reinforcing bar and concrete. Key variables are concrete compressive strength, concrete cover, bar diameter and rib spacing. Failure mode was examined and maximum bond stress-slip relationships were presented to show the effect of above variables. As the result, it appropriately expressed general characteristics of bond splitting mechanism, and it proved capability for standard test method.

최근 해양환경의 대형 SOC구조물 증가에 따른 구조물 내구성 증진에 관심이 증가되고 있다. 내구성 증진을 위해 개발된 FRP Hybrid Bar의 구조적 성능은 검증 되었으나 부식에 대한 저항성을 평가한 연구는 미흡하여 본 연구를 수행 하였다. 본 연구에서는 콘크리트 중의 철근 종류에 따른 철근부식 저항성을 평가하였다. 평가를 위하여 철근은 일반철근과 FRP hybrid Bar을 사용하였다. 시험방법은 갈바닉전류(Galvanic)와 반전지법(Half-Cell)을 사용하였으며, 철근부식 촉진을 위하여 콘크리트 내부에 염분을 0%, 1.5%, 3%, 6% 첨가하였다. 그 결과 갈바닉전류측정에서 FRP Hybrid Bar는 부식전류가 측정되지 않았다. 반면 일반철근에서는 시험 직후 부식이 발생하는 결과를 나타내었다. Half-Cell측정 결과에서도 4단계의 염분 함유량의 차이와 광물질혼화재료를 사용한 콘크리트와 일반콘크리트에 관계없이 FRP Hybrid Bar의 부식 저항성이 우수하게 나타났다. 따라서 FRP Hybrid Bar는 해양환경 및 철근부식이 예측되는 구조물용 대체 철근으로 사용이 가능하나 부착성능, 탄성계수, 절곡부의 강선 노출에 대한 처리 방법 등이 개선되면 염해로부터 철근부식 저항성 확보를 요구하는 구조물에 사용 할 수 있는 우수한 소재로 판단된다.
