Force-deformation modelling of cracked reinforced concrete is essential for a displacement-based seismic assessment of structures and can be achieved by fibre-element analysis of the cross-section of the major lateral resisting elements. The non-linear moment curvature relationship obtained from fibre-element analysis takes into account the significant effects of axial pre-compression and contributions by the longitudinal reinforcement. Whilst some specialised analysis packages possess the capability of incorporating fibre-elements into the modelling (e.g., RESPONSE 2000), implementation of the analysis on EXCEL is illustrated in this paper. The outcome of the analysis is the moment-curvature relationship of the wall cross-section, curvature at yield and at damage control limit states specified by the user. Few software platforms can compete with EXCEL in terms of its transparencies, versatility and familiarity to the computer users. The program has the capability of handling arbitrary cross-sections that are without an axis of symmetry. Application of the program is illustrated with examples of typical cross-sections of structural walls. The calculated limiting curvature for the considered cross-sections were used to construct displacement profiles up the height of the wall for comparison with the seismically induced displacement demand.

Recently, a novel cast-in specialty insert was developed in Korea as an anchor for lightweight pipe supports, including fire-protection pipes. As these pipe supports and anchors play a critical role in transferring loads of fire-protection pipes to structural members, it is crucial to evaluate their seismic performance before applying the newly developed insert. In this study, the seismic shear performance of the insert anchors was evaluated through cyclic loading tests based on the loading protocols of ACI 355.2 and FEMA 461. Initially, five monotonic loading tests were conducted on the insert anchors in cracked concrete, followed by cyclic loading tests based on the monotonic test results. The findings revealed that the insert anchors exhibited negligible decrease in shear strength even after cyclic loading. Furthermore, a comparison of the maximum load and displacement of the insert anchors obtained under the loading protocols of ACI 355.2 and FEMA 461 was performed to investigate the applicability of the FEMA 461 loading protocol for anchor performance evaluation.

철근콘크리트 보의 휨 및 전단파괴 예측을 위한 철근콘크리트 부재의 3차원 유한요소모델을 개발하였다. 다축구속응력 하에서의 콘크리트의 연성거동을 보다 정확히 예측하기 위해 변형률 공간에서의 콘크리트 파괴기준을 제시하였다. 3축하에서의 콘크리트 균열거동을 위해 균열발생 후 인장연화거동, 골재맞물림 및 다우얼효과를 고려한 균열면 전단전달특성을 고려토록 하였다. 휨 및 전단 파괴 양상을 갖는 보 시험체와의 비교 연구를 통하여 본 유한요소 모델은 저보강보의 연성 휨 파괴 뿐만 아니라 전단보강되지 않은 철근콘크리트 보의 취성 전단 파괴 양상을 갖는 부재의 거동 예측에도 유효한 것으로 판단되었다.

최근들어 내구성에 대한 사회적, 공학적 중요성이 부각됨에 따라, 염해 및 탄산화에 대한 연구가 집중되고 있다. 일반적으로 침지된 구조물의 경우를 제외하고는 염해와 탄산화는 동시에 발생하게 되는데, 탄산화 영역에서는 염화물 거동이 일반콘크리트에서의 염화물 거동과 다르게 평가된다. 그리고 콘크리트 구조에 발생된 균열은 단일열화 뿐 아니라 복합열화의 진전에도 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구의 목적은 염화물 확산과 침투 그리고 이산화탄소 유입에 따른 탄산화 거동을 고려하여, 복합열화에 노출된 건전부 및 균열부 콘크리트 구조물의 열화 해석을 수행하는데 있다. 먼저 초기재령 콘크리트의 다상 수화 발열 모델 및 공극 구조 형성 모델을 도입한 염화물 확산 및 침투를 고려한 염화물 이동 모델을 이용하였다. 이후 탄산화 해석을 통하여 탄산화 영역 진전에 따라 변화하는 공극 분포, 포화도 및 고정화 염화물의 해리를 모델링하여 복합 열화 모델을 개발하였으며 개발된 모델은 기존의 실태 조사 결과 및 실험 결과와 비교하여 그 적용성을 검증하였다. 한편 선행된 연구 결과인 균열부의 염화물 및 탄산화 거동을 고려하여, 보통포틀랜트시멘트 (OPC; ordinary portland cement) 및 혼화재 (슬래그)를 사용한 콘크리트에 대한 복합열화 거동을 시뮬레이션 하였다. 그 결과 건전부 및 균열부에 대하여 복합열화 저항성을 평가할 수 있는 복합열화 천이 영역 (CCTZ)를 제안하였으며, 혼화재를 사용한 콘크리트가 OPC를 사용한 콘크리트에 비하여 복합열화 저항성이 우수함을 해석적으로 구명하였다.

Cracks in reinforced concrete members are important element in structural analysis and design. It is clear from the test results that shear strength of cracked member is remarkably degraded compared with uncracked one. However, considerable amount of shear resistance by such mechanisms as aggregate interlock and dowel action is still active. There are various approaches to shear transfer estimation including finite element analysis, fracture mechanics, upper bound theory of plasticity, etc., but working out comprehensive and consistent models and manageable equations is rather difficult and remains to be improved. Shear transfer problems under cyclic loading and effective compressive strength of cracked concrete have not been adequately investigated and need further systematic research.

Many composite girder bridges have been constructed for about thirty five years. Nowadays they are aged or deteriorated because of th increase in traffic and vehicle loads. In this study, the effect of strengthening with glass fiber sheet is investigated to estimate the possibility for appling for damaged prestressed concrete bridges. One normal and eight cracked specimens which had been preloaded were tested. The cracked specimens were strengthened with either external prestressing or bonding glass fiber sheet, or using both methods. The results showed that the maximum loads are almost same for both methods. So it seems that the strengthening with glass fiber sheet can be used for strengthening damaged prestressed concrete girders. It is important that proper devices should be selected to prevent glass fiber sheet from premature bonding failure below its maximum load, which is similar to end anchorage problem in external prestressing method. It is proved that the devices proposed in this paper have sufficient anchoring capability to increase load carrying capacity.

This paper presents a simple and reliable constitutive model for predicting the nonlinear response of reinforced concrete subjected to general membrane loadings. Based on the concept of equivalent uniaxial strain, constitutive relations of concrete are presented in the axes of orthotropy. The behavior of cracked concrete is described by a system of orthogonal cracks, which follows the principal strain directions and rotates according to the loading history. Simple hysteretic rules defining the cyclic stress-strain curves of concrete and steel are used. In addition, the stiffness and strength degradation of cracked concrete is included in the formulation. Correlation studies between analytical results and experimental values from idealized shear panel tests are conducted with the objective to establish the validity of the proposed model.

본 연구에서는 지진모의실험으로 비보강 선설치앵커의 전단에 대한 콘크리트 파열파괴강도를 평가하기 위한 실험 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 앵커 직경 30mm, 연단거리 150mm, 매입깊이 240mm인 비균열 시험체와 전단하중에 수직 및 수평 방향 균열콘크리트 시험체들에 대해 각각 실험을 수행하였다. 지진모의실험 시 동적 가력은 CSA N287.2, ACI 355.2와 ETAG 001 기준을 참조하여 결정하였으며 이후 파괴 시까지 정적 재하를 실시하였다. 비균열 및 균열콘크리트 모두 지진모의실험에 의한 저항강도는 각각 정적 강도와 거의 동등한 수준이었다. 한편, 콘크리트 파괴단면의 깊이는 $8d_0$에 모두 미치지 못하였으며 이로부터 기존 강도식에 비해 유효지압길이를 고려하지 않는 ACI 318-11의 수정강도식이 콘크리트 파열파괴강도를 적절하게 평가하는 것으로 분석되었다.

높은 수압에서 균열이 있는 콘크리트의 투수계수에 대한 연구를 수행하였으며, 이를 위해 기존의 균열이 있는 콘크리트 투수실험의 균열 유발 방법과 압력 조절 방법을 개선하였다. 실험체를 쪼갠 후 다시 붙이는 방법으로 확실한 관통 균열을 유발하였으며, 압력계와 감압계를 사용하여 압력조절을 간소화하였다. 균열폭을 측정할 때 균열폭 분류를 정하여 범위에 드는 실험체만 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 변수는 수압 (0.1$\sim$2 bar)과 균열폭 (30$\sim$100 ${\mu}m$)이다. 실험 결과, 균열폭과 수압이 증가함에 따라 투수계수가 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 자기 치유의 영향으로 시간에 따라 투수계수가 점차로 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 실험 초기의 투수계수는 균열폭에 많은 영향을 받지만, 최종 투수계수는 균열폭에 의한 영향이 상대적으로 작았다. 균열폭이 100 ${\mu}m$일 때는 균열폭이 30, 50 ${\mu}m$일 때에 비해 압력에 따른 투수계수의 변화가 컸는데, 수압이 0.1 bar에서 0.25 bar로 증가하면 투수계수가 약 190배로 크게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다.

The Self Compacting Concrete, SCC is the new generation type of concrete which is not needed to be compacted by vibrator and it will be compacted by its own weight. Since SCC is a new innovation and also the high strength self compacting concrete, HSSCC behavior is like a brittle material, therefore, understanding the strength effect on the serviceability performance of reinforced self compacting concretes is critical. For this aim, first the normal and high strength self compacting concrete, NSSCC and HSSCC was designed. Then, the serviceability performance of reinforced connections consisting of NSSCC and HSSCC were investigated. Twelve reinforced concrete connections (L = 3 m, b = 0.15 m, h = 0.3 m) were simulated, by this concretes, the maximum and minimum reinforcement ratios ${\rho}$ and ${\rho}^{\prime}$ (percentage of tensile and compressive steel reinforcement) are in accordance with the provision of the ACI-05 for conventional RC structures. This study was limited to the case of bending without axial load, utilizing simple connections loaded at mid span through a stub (b = 0.15 m, h = 0.3 m, L = 0.3 m) to simulate a beam-column connection. During the test, concrete and steel strains, deflections and crack widths were measured at different locations along each member. Based on the experimental readings and observations, the cracked moment of inertia ($I_{cr}$) of members was determined and the results were compared with some selective theoretical methods. Also, the flexural crack widths of the members were measured and the applicability for conventional vibrated concrete, as for ACI, BS and CSA code, was verified for SCCs members tested. A comparison between two Codes (ACI and CSA) for the theoretical values cracking moment is indicate that, irrespective of the concrete strength, for the specimens reported, the prediction values of two codes are almost equale. The experimental cracked moment of inertia $(I_{cr})_{\exp}$ is lower than its theoretical $(I_{cr})_{th}$ values, and therefore theoretically it is overestimated. Also, a general conclusion is that, by increasing the percentage of ${\rho}$, the value of $I_{cr}$ is increased.
