This study concerns crack effect on concrete anchor system and prediction of tensile capacity, as governed by concrete cone failure, of single anchors located at center of concrete specimen. To Investigate crack effect three different types of crack such as crack width of 0.2mm and 0.5nm, crack depth of loom and 20cm, and crack location of center and biased point were simulated. The static tensile load was subjected to 7/8 in. CIP anchor embedded in concrete of strength 280kg/$cm^{2}$. Tested pullout capacity was compared to prediction value by each current design method (such as ACI 349-97, ACI 349 revision and CEB-FIP which is based on CC Method), In these comparison CC Method and ACI revision showed almost same value in uncracked concrete specimen, however in cracked concrete CC Method showed conservativeness. Therefore the design by ACI 349 revision is recommended for the safe and economic design.

The fracture energy evaluated from the previous experimental results can be simulated by using the modified singular fracture process zone (S-FPZ) model. The fracture model has two fracture properties of strain energy release rate for crack extension and crack close stress versus crack width relationship $f_{ccs}(w)$ for fracture process zone (FPZ) development. The $f_{ccs}(w)$ relationship is not sensitive to specimen geometry and crack velocity. The fracture energy rate in the FPZ increases linearly with crack extension until the FPZ is fully developed. The fracture criterion of the strain energy release rate depends on specimen geometry and crack velocity as a function of crack extension. The behaviors of micro-cracking, micro-crack localization and full development of the FPZ in concrete can be explained theoretically with the variation of strain energy release rate with crack extension.

Measuring crack length in concrete fracture test is not a trivial problem due to high speed crack propagation. In this study, mechanoluminascent (ML) material, which emits visible light under stress condition, was employed to visualize crack propagation during concrete fracture test. Three-point bending test was conducted with a notched concrete beam specimen. The cracking images due to ML phenomenon were recorded by using a high speed camera as a function of time and external loadings. The experimental results successfully demonstrated the capability of ML material as a promising visualization tool for concrete crack propagation. In addition, an interesting cracking behavior of concrete bending fracture was observed in which the crack propagated fast while the load decreased slowly at early fracture stage.

A theory is proposed to predict the response of the load-deformation relationship of the reinforced concrete structures under the service state after cracking. The crack direction and concrete strains through the loading history before failure can be estimated by this theory based on the rotating crack model, which considers equilibrium, compatibility conditions, and average stress-strain relationship. The proposed crack direction and deformation show good agreement with test results under service state. The behavior of a variety of concrete structures, such as shear walls, deep beams and the web of box girders, can be predicted by this proposed theory under service state.

Crack on concrete surface allows more rapid penetration of chlorides. Crack width and depth are dominant parameters for chloride behavior, however their effects on chloride penetration are difficult to quantify. In the present work, the previous anisotropic (1-D) model on chloride diffusion in concrete with single crack is improved considering crack shape and roughness. In the previous model, parallel-piped shape was adopted for crack shape in steady-state condition. The previous model with single crack is improved considering wedge shape of crack profile and roughness. For verifying the proposed model, concrete samples for nuclear power plant are prepared and various crack widths are induced 0.0 to 1.2 mm. The chloride diffusion coefficients in steady-state condition are evaluated and compared with simulation results. The proposed model which can handle crack shape and roughness factor is evaluated to decrease chloride diffusion and can provide more reasonable results due to reduced area of crack profile. The roughness effect on diffusion is evaluated to be 10-20% of reduction in chloride diffusion.

다공질성 특성을 갖는 콘크리트는 충분한 다짐과 양생 조건에서 장수명을 갖으며, 유해 물질의 주요 경로는 공극이다. 그러나 균열이 발생한 콘크리트의 경우, 균열은 염소이온과 같은 유해 물질의 우선적인 침투 경로가 된다. 균열이 염소에 미치는 영향은 균열폭과 균열 깊이의 크기에 의존한다. 본 연구는 미세균열이 콘크리트의 염소이온 침투에 미치는 영향을 다룬 실험적 연구로서, 연구 목적은 균열폭과 균열 깊이 등의 균열 크기 효과가 염소이온에 미치는 영향을 고찰하는 것이다. 균열을 통한 염소이온의 침투를 시각화 하기 위하여, 급속 염소이온 침투 실험인 RCM (rapid chloride migration) 실험을 수행하였다. 균열폭과 균열 깊이는 전자 현미경으로 관찰하였고, 평균적인 균열폭을 산정하기 위하여 균열 개구 변위가 측정되었다. 다양한 균열 크기에 따른 염소이온의 침투 깊이 및 염소이온 확산계수의 변화율로부터 염소이온이 침투되지 않는 균열 깊이 및 이에 대응한 균열폭이 도출되었다.

Cracks of concrete structure must be analyzed and estimated synthetically in order to have a maintenance and to insure the safety and the durability of structure. Concrete cracks have to be surveyed with respect to depth, width, shape and direction etc, but crack depth among these items is not measured easily. Occasionally, it needs to measure the crack depth of concrete structure for the purpose of evaulating the safe capacity and the necessity of repair. Therefore, this research is performed to verify the applicability and the accuracy of Ultra-sonic Pulse Velocity Technique(Tester), in non-destructive testing methods of concrete crack depth.

The objective of this study is to determine crack depth located under steel reinforcement in concrete specimens using ultrasonic method. Experimental studies were performed on concrete specimens containing vertical and inclined surface-opening cracks with known depths. The other studies were carried out on specimens with flexural crack. Experimental results have shown that the crack depth is effectually measured when the distance between the probes is less than the crack depth. The effect of steel on crack depth estimation is studied through a model by considering P-waves diffaction at the tip of crack and steel. In addition, experimental results show that the ultrasonic method is one of useful methods to evaluate the crack depth in reinforced concrete.

Concrete is a material popularly used in construction. Due to the load-bearing and external environmental factors during utilization or manufacturing, its surface is prone to flaws, such as crack and leak. To repair these superficial defects and ultimately and avoid the deterioration of the concrete's durability, numerous concrete surface protective coatings and crack repair products have been developed. Currently, studies are endeavoring to exploit the mineralization property of microbial strains for repairing concrete cracks be the repairing material for crack rehabilitation. This research aims to use bacteria, specifically B. pasteurii, in crack rehabilitation to enhance the flexural and compression strength of the repaired concrete. Serial tests at various bacterial concentrations and the same $Urea-CaCl_2$ medium concentration of 70% for crack rehabilitation were executed. The results prove that the higher the concentration of the bacterial broth, the greater the amount of calcium carbonate precipitate was induced, while using B. pasteurii broth was for crack rehabilitation. The flexural and compression strengths of the repaired concrete test samples were the greatest at 100% bacterial concentration. Compared to the control group (bacterial concentration of 0%), the flexural strength had increased by 32.58% for 1-mm crack samples and 51.01% for 2-mm crack samples, and the compression strength had increased by 28.58% and 23.85%, respectively. From the SEM and XRD test results, a greater quantity of rectangular and polygonal crystals was also found in samples with high bacterial concentrations. These tests all confirm that using bacteria in crack rehabilitation can increase the flexural and compression strength of the repaired concrete.
