The confining effect of concrete was studied when a steel tube is set at the inside face of a hollow reinforced concrete column. To investigate the confining effect by a steel tube, 36 specimens were tested and compared. Test results show that the inserted steel tube provide sufficient confinement to the confining effect depends on the thickness of the steel tube. And also, test results show that the provided confinement by a steel tube increase the strength of concrete.

A double-skinned composite tubular (DSCT) column, which consists of concrete and inner and outer tubes, was finally developed to overcome the weaknesses of concrete filled tube columns by reducing the self-weight of the column and confining the concrete triaxially. Research pertaining to the stiffness and strength of the column and the confining effect in a DSCT column has been carried out. However, detailed studies on the confining stress, especially the internal confining stress in a DSCT column, have not been carried out. Internal and external confining stresses should be evaluated to determine the effective confining stress in a DSCT column. In this paper, the confining stresses of concrete before and after insertion of an inner tube were studied using finite element analysis. The relationship between the internal or external confining stresses and the theoretical confining stress was investigated by parametric studies. New modified formulae for the yield and buckling failure conditions based on the formulae suggested by former researchers were proposed. Through analytical studies, the modified formulae were verified to be effective for economic and reasonable design of the inner tubes in a DSCT column under the same confining stress.

공용상태 포장에서 노상토 및 보조기층 재료가 경험하는 구속응력 범위는 150㎪ 이내이다. 따라서 포장 시스템 설계 및 해석에서 낮은 구속응력 단계의 변형특성은 매우 중요한 물성치이다. 실제 포장시공 현장에서 노상토 및 보조기층 재료를 채취하였으며, 낮은 구속응력 단계에서 탄성계수에 대한 구속응력 영향 평가를 위하여 공진주시험(RC) 및 자유단공진주시험(FFRC)을 수행하였다. 흥미롭게, 낮은 구속응력 단계에서는 구속응력과 탄성계수의 관계가 대수공간보다는 선형공간에서 더욱 적합한 관계를 나타내었다. 이러한 결과를 근거로 낮은 구속응력단계에서 구속응력의 탄성계수에 대한 영향을 평가하는 새로운 모델을 제안하였다.

단주영역에서 정사각형 콘크리트 충전 강관기둥의 단순 누가강도, 설계식 강도는 실험강도에 비해 약간 과소하게 평가하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문은 주요 요인이 되는 콘크리트의 구속효과를 고려하여 평가하고자 하였다. 콘크리트의 구속효과를 검토하기 위해 3차원 유한요소모델을 사용하여 강관의 폭-두께비(b/t), 콘크리트의 압축강도($f_c$'), 강재의 항복응력($f_y$)에 따른 영향을 검토하였고 이 세 변수를 조합한 제안된 강도식은 기존의 실험값과 비교, 검토되었다. 또한 하중 재하상태에 따른 콘크리트의 구속효과도 살펴 보았다.

본 연구에서는 새로이 제안된 콘크리트의 강판 보강기법 및 GFRP 튜브의 구속효과를 분석하고 평가하였다. 새로이 제안된 강판 보강기법은 기존의 강판 보강기법과 설치 및 거동에서 차이가 있으므로 이 기법의 구속효과를 평가할 필요성이 있으며, GFRP 보강기법과 상호비교를 통해서 장단점을 분석하였다. 강판 보강기법에 의한 콘크리트의 구속효과는 기존의 연구자들이 제안한 식과 일치하는 결과를 보여주었다. 그러나 GFRP 보강기법은 보강두께 및 콘크리트의 압축강도에 따라 구속효과가 없는 경우가 나타났기 때문에 기존의 구속효과 추정식을 그대로 사용할 수 없었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 새로이 추정하는 기법을 제시하였으며, 이를 통해서 구속효과가 발생하는 최소 보강두께를 결정하는 기법을 제시하였다. 마지막으로, 두 기법으로 보강된 콘크리트의 파단변형률 비교하여 연성거동 능력을 평가하였다.

최근 기둥의 구속효과에 대한 연구가 많이 연구되어지고 있다. 주로 철근 콘크리트 기둥과 CFT(Concrete Filled Tube)기둥과 같이 중실 기둥에 대한 연구로 한정되어 있는 반면 중공 기둥에 대한 구속효과 연구가 매우 미비한 실정이다. 중공 기둥의 외부 구속력에 대한 연구가 주로 연구되고 있고 내부 구속력을 외부 구속력과 동일하게 가정하고 구속 콘크리트의 구속효과를 평가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 중공 CFT 기둥에 내부 튜브를 삽입하여 구속 콘크리트 3축 구속 상태로 놓이게 하여 연성 및 강도를 상승 시킨 내부 구속 중공 CFT 기둥(Internally Confined Hollow CFT, ICH CFT)의 최적 구속메커니즘을 도출하기 위한 연구를 하였다. 내부튜브 두께, 중공비, 기둥의 직경, 콘크리트와 외부튜브의 휨강성비를 매개변수로 삼아 범용 FEM 프로그램으로 비선형 해석 연구를 수행하여 최적 내부 구속력 도출을 통하여 수정 파괴 조건식을 제안하였다. 수정 파괴 조건식은 최적 내부 튜브의 두께를 산정하여 기둥이 경제성을 확보하도록 하였다.

Because of several advantages of mortar-filled sleeve splice in reinforced concrete buildings, this method is being applied increasingly at construction sites and various methods of the splice have been developed in Korea and other countries. In order to apply this system in the field, studies on mortar-filled sleeve splice have been mainly experimental research focused on overall structural performance. However, for understanding the structural characteristics of this splice more accurately, we need to study the confining effect of sleeve, which is known to affect bond strength between filling mortar and reinforcing bar, the most important structural elements of the bar splice. Thus, in order to examine the confinement effect of mortar-filled steel pipe sleeve splice, the present study prepared actual-size specimens of steel pipe sleeve splice, and conducted a loading. Using the test results, we analyzed how the confining effect of steel pipe sleeve affects the bond strength of this splice and obtained data for developing more reasonable methods of designing the splice of reinforcement.

Estimation of representative elementary volume (REV) of jointed rock masses is critical to predict the mechanical behavior of field-scale rock masses. The REV of jointed rock masses at site is strongly influenced by stress state. The paper proposed a method to systematically studied the influence of confining stress on the REV of jointed rock masses with various strengths (weak, medium and strong), which were sourced from the water inlet slope of Xiaowan Hydropower Station, China. A finite element method considering material heterogeneity was employed, a series of two-dimensional (2D) models was established based on the Monte-Carlo method and a lot of biaxial compressive tests were conducted. Numerical results showed that the REV of jointed rock masses presented a step-like reduction as the normalized confining stress increased. Confining stress weakened the size effect of jointed rock masses, indicating that the REV determined under uniaxial compression test can be reasonably taken as the REV of jointed rock masses under complexed in-situ stress environment.

Based on the dynamic tests of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) short columns confined by the hoop reinforcement, the dynamic failure mechanism and the mechanical parameters related to the constitutive relation of confined recycled aggregate concrete (CRAC) were investigated thoroughly. The fracturing sections were relatively flat and smooth at higher strain rates rather than those at a quasi-static strain rate. With the increasing stirrup volume ratio, the crack mode is transited from splitting crack to slipping crack constrained with large transverse confinement. The compressive peak stress, peak strain, and ultimate strain increase with the increase of stirrup volume ratio, as well as the increasing strain rate. The dynamic confining increase factors of the compressive peak stress, peak strain, and ultimate strain increase by about 33%, 39%, and 103% when the volume ratio of hoop reinforcement is increased from 0 to 2%, but decrease by about 3.7%, 4.2%, and 9.1% when the stirrup spacing is increased from 20mm to 60mm, respectively. This sentence is rephrased as follows: When the stirrup volume ratios are up to 0.675%, and 2%, the contributions of the hoop confinement effect to the dynamic confining increase factors of the compressive peak strain and the compressive peak stress are greater than those of the strain rate effect, respectively. The dynamic confining increase factor (DCIF) models of the compressive peak stress, peak strain, and ultimate strain of CRAC are proposed in the paper. Through the confinement of the hoop reinforcement, the ductility of RAC, which is generally slightly lower than that of NAC, is significantly improved.

This study was carried out to investigate the liquefaction behaviour of saturated silty sand under monotonic loading conditions. The undrained soil tests were conducted using a modified triaxial cell and specimens were prepared using the moisture tamping method. Undrained triaxial compression tests were performed at different confining pressures, void ratios and overconsolidation ratios and the samples were sheared to axial strains of about 20% to obtain monotonic loading conditions. It is shown that increasing confining pressures, void ratios and overconsoildation ratios increases the deviator stress, but it has no effect on increasing the dilatant tendencies. It is shown that complete static liquefaction was observed regardless of increases in the confining pressure, void ratio and overconsolidation ratio. Therefore, the confining pressure, void ratio and overconsoildation ratio does not provide significant effects on the liquefaction resistance of the silty sand. The presence of fines in the soil was shown to greatly increase the potential for static liquefaction and creates a particle structure with high compressibility for all cases.
