In this work, an experimental research has been performed on Steel Fiber-Steel Reinforced Concrete (SFSRC)specimens subjected to four-point bending tests to evaluate the feasibility of mutual replacement of steel fibers and conventional reinforcement through studying failure modes, load-deflection curves, stiffness of characteristic points, stiffness degradation curves and damage analysis. The variables considered in this experiment included steel fiber volume percentage with and without conventional reinforcements (stirrups or steel fibers) with shear span depth ratios of S/D=2.5 and 3.5. Experimental results revealed that increasing the volume percentage of steel fiber decreased the creation and propagation of shear and bond cracks, just like shortening the stirrups spacing. Higher crack resistance and suturing ability of steel fiber can improve the stability of its bearing capacity. Both steel fibers and stirrups improved the stiffness and damage resistance of specimens where stirrups played an essential role and therefore, the influence of steel fibers was greatly weakened. Increasing S/D ratio also weakened the effect of steel fibers. An equation was derived to calculate the bending stiffness of SFSRC specimens, which was used to determine mid span deflection; the accuracy of the proposed equation was proved by comparing predicted and experimental results.

작금에 사용되고 있는 RC 구조물의 대개의 내진설계기법은 지진시 RC 구조물에 발생되는 손상의 분포상태를 고려치 않고 있다. 본 논문은 철근 콘크리트 구조물의 새로운 내진설계법 즉 Miner's 법칙을 수정한 지진 발생시의 흡수에너지(Dissipated Energy)를 변수로 하는 손상모델(3)를 사용하여 RC 프레임의 각각의 Node에서의 손상정도를 수치적으로 나타내고 이들 손상값의 크기가 전 부재에 고르게 분포토록 하기 위하여 각 부재의 주철근량을 설계변수로 채택한 설계기법을 소개하였다. 사용된 이력모델 및 손상모델의 정확성을 평가하기 위하여 해석적인 하중-변형곡선을 재생하여 실험곡선과 비교분석하였으며 제안된 내진설계법의 유용성은 3-bay 4-story 프레임 모델을 사용하여 입증하였다.

화재 피해 콘크리트 건축물의 기존 손상도 평가 방법은 명확한 손상 깊이를 정량적으로 추정하기가 어렵고, 특히 코아 압축강도 테스트는 콘크리트 깊이별로 수열온도 따라 손상도의 변화를 반영하지 못하고 손상 공시체의 압축강도를 구조체 압축강도 저하의 대표 값으로 사용하게 되어 손상 깊이의 판단이 어려운 불합리한 점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 화재 피해를 입은 철근콘크리트 슬래브나 벽체 부재의 손상 깊이를 정량적으로 평가하기 위해서, 공시체를 대상으로 전기로에서 일면 가열한 후, 2cm 두께로 절편화시켜 색조분석, 흡수율 및 할렬인장강도실험에 의한 압축강도를 분석함으로써 공시체 깊이별 손상 깊이를 정량적으로 평가하는 실험기법을 제안하고 고온에 노출된 콘크리트의 특성변화를 고찰함으로써 그 적용성을 검증하였다. 실험결과, 본 연구에서 제안한 손상도 평가기법은 가열조건 및 강도별로 공시체 깊이에 따른 잔존강도의 정량적 평가가 가능하였으며, 이 결과를 이용하여 화재를 경험한 슬래브나 벽체의 보수보강 범위를 선정하는 판단 기준으로 활용할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Residual capacity is defined as the load carrying capacity of an RC column after undergoing severe damage. Evaluation of residual capacity of RC columns is necessary to avoid damage initiation in RC structures. The central aspect of the current research is to propose an empirical formula to estimate the residual capacity of RC columns after undergoing severe damage. This formula facilitates decision making of whether a replacement or a repair of the damaged column is adequate for further use. Available literature mainly focused on the simulation of explosion loads by using simplified pressure time histories to develop residual capacity of RC columns and rarely simulated the actual explosive. Therefore, there is a gap in the literature concerning general relation between blast damage of columns with different explosive loading conditions for a reliable and quick evaluation of column behavior subjected to blast loading. In this paper, the Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) technique is implemented to simulate high fidelity blast pressure propagations. LS-DYNA software is utilized to solve the finite element (FE) model. The FE model is validated against the practical blast tests, and outcomes are in good agreement with test results. Multivariate linear regression (MLR) method is utilized to derive an analytical formula. The analytical formula predicts the residual capacity of RC columns as functions of structural element parameters. Based on intensive numerical simulation data, it is found that column depth, longitudinal reinforcement ratio, concrete strength and column width have significant effects on the residual axial load carrying capacity of reinforced concrete column under blast loads. Increasing column depth and longitudinal reinforcement ratio that provides better confinement to concrete are very effective in the residual capacity of RC column subjected to blast loads. Data obtained with this study can broaden the knowledge of structural response to blast and improve FE models to simulate the blast performance of concrete structures.

이 연구는 원전 콘크리트 배합설계를 모사한 콘크리트 시험체에 대하여 염수침지 실험을 수행하였으며, 시험체 깊이에 따른 염화물량과 XRF 성분의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 원전 콘크리트의 표면부의 염화물량은 염수 침지기간이 증가함에 따라 소폭 증가하였으나, 깊이 5.5 mm 이상의 콘크리트 시험체 내부 염화물량은 염수 침지기간이 증가함에 증가하는 경향이 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 콘크리트의 염화물량과 XRF 성분의 상관관계 분석결과, OPC 배합과 비교하여 FA가 20% 치환된 배합은 XRF 성분분석을 통한 Cl 이온의 구성비율과 염해저항성 평가결과의 상관관계가 매우 높게 나타났다. 이에 따라 FA가 20% 치환된 원전 콘크리트 배합에서는 반복적인 데이터 누적을 통해 XRF 성분분석을 통하여 염소이온분석 및 염해저항성능 평가가 가능함을 확인하였다.

Over the past couple decades, externally bonded fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have emerged as a repair and strengthening material for many concrete infrastructure applications. This paper presents an analytical investigation of the use of carbon FRP (CFRP) for a specific problem that occurs in concrete bridge girders wherein the girder ends are damaged by excessive exposure to deicing salts and numerous freezing/thawing cycles. A 3D finite element (FE) model of a full scale prestressed concrete (PC) I-girder is used to investigate the effect of damage to the cover concrete and stirrups in the end region of the girder. Parametric studies are performed using externally bonded CFRP shear laminates to determine the most effective repair schemes for the damaged end region under a short shear span-to-depth ratio. Experimental results on shear pull off tests of CFRP laminates that have undergone accelerated aging are used to calibrate a bond stress-slip model for the interface between the FRP and concrete substrate and approximate the reduced bond stress-slip properties associated with exposure to the environment that causes this type of end region damage. The results of these analyses indicate that this particular application of this material can be effective in recovering the original strength of PC bridge girders with damaged end regions, even after environmental aging.

During the past few decades, several composite steel-concrete structural systems have been used and the demand of SRC (Steel Reinforced Concrete) structure increases on the construction of coping structures. But drying shrinking of concrete which is not uniform and the additional restraining effects of encased steel in concrete may cause the crack which leads to harmful damage to structure. In this study, specimens were made to show the restraining effects of embeded-steel in concrete and the differential drying shrinkage strains at various position of concrete were measured and analysed by Compensation Line Method. The results showed that there were remarkable difference in the drying shrinkage according to 속 depth of the concrete, and the tensile stress of the concrete near to encased steel showed the significant amount of stress contrary to 속 specimen which has no embeded-steel.

Surge overflow may cause damage on earthen levees. Levee strengthened on the levee crest and landward-side slope can provide protection against the erosion damage induced by surge overflow. In this paper, surge overflow of a roller compacted concrete RCC strengthened levee was studied in a purely Lagrangian and meshless approach, the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method. After verifying the developed model with analytical solution and comparing the results with full-scale experimental data, the roughness and erosion parameters were calibrated. The water thickness, flow velocity, and erosion depth at crest, landward-side slope and toe were calculated. The characteristics of flow hydraulics and erosion on the RCC strengthened levee are given. The results indicate that the RCC strengthened levee can resist erosion damage for a long period.
