The purpose of this study is to evaluate seismic performance of reinforced concrete pier columns in Seohae Ground Bridge. Since the bridge was designed before preparing the seismic design specification the bridge columns of hollow hexagonal section were designed and constructed with insufficient seismic reinforcement details such as longitudinal and transverse reinforcement lap-splices. In order to take the necessary measures to improve its seismic performance experimental study was performed by small-scale test for the bridge columns, From the quasi-static test for small-scale column specimens the lap-splices were not critical for overall behavior of the column if sufficient lap-splice-length was provided. The test results of failure mode effective stiffness ductility and equivalent viscous damping ratio are presented.

It is an well-known fact that dynamic properties should be considered in design and maintenance of civil structures undergoing dynamic force such as rail track. For designing of the rail tack structures, dynamic properties of track bed soil such as shear modulus (G) and damping coefficients(D) obtained in small to medium range of shear strain must be known. In general, small size sample of D=5 cm and H=10cm has been used mostly for test convenience. However, ratio of largest particle diameter of the soil to sample diameter is very important and affects to the values of dynamic soil properties in track bed. In this study, an RC/TS test apparatus was built and was run for testing a medium size soil sample that can handle with compacted soil sample up to 10 cm diameter and 20 cm height.

In this study, for the evaluation of field application of low heat concrete using high volume mineral admixture, the characteristics of hydration heat generation and engineering properties of low heat concrete was investigated by mock-up test according to the replacement ratio of mineral admixture. Also, it was evaluated the compressive strength of low heat concrete with curing temperatures and ages for effective concrete mix design considering seasonal change.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the concrete shear strength and structural behavior of two general beams and eight shape memory alloys (SMAs)-reinforced beams under the flexural test. This work compares the existing reference formula for concrete shear strength with test result to provide the basic data for the design of highly intelligent reinforced concrete (hereinafter, HIRC) beams. The evaluation of the concrete shear strength was performed with effective depth (d=65, 70, 80), SMA diameter change (ø=2.0, 2.5) as the main variables of the specimens. For the relationship between the effective depth and the $V_{\exp}/V_{cal}$, the test result shows that the concrete shear strength gradually approaches 1.0 as the effective depth length increase. For the AIJ formula, the specimens are approached evenly for comparison between $V_{\exp}/V_{cal}$ and the by-product (garnet, fly-ash) reinforced specimen; however, other formulas indicate a deviation.

Nuclear reactor pressure vessel should be safety even in the case that hypothetical defects with allowable size are in vessel. Therefore, the materials should have excellent fracture resistance characteristics. The purpose of this study is to analyze the results of preirradiation baseline test of nuclear pressure vessel for Yonggwang Unit 5/6. In experiments, drop weight tests and impact tests are carried out to obtain nil-ductility transition reference temperature, $RT_{NDT}$ and static and dynamic fracture toughness tests are performed to compare with $K_{IR}$ curve in accordance with ASME Sec.III. The test results show that the materials had sufficiently fracture resistance characteristics for 40 years of design life.

This paper deals with the electric and thermal characteristics of the composite busbar composed of aluminum and copper. When AC current is flowing in Cu busbar used widely in conservative equipments like power cable, transformer, and switchgear & controlgear most current is concentrated on the surface of the busbar by the skin effect. Therefore, if the Cu region in the busbar having low current density is replaced with aluminum, we can largely reduce the product cost and weight of the busbar. To conform the performance of the composite busbar, we designed and fabricated a test Al/Cu composite busbar. Maximun temperature rise of the busbar was $35^{\circ}C$ when 1600 Arms of AC current was applied to the test composite busbar($120mm{\times}10mm$). Based on test results, we can expect to make the low-priced and light power equipments using the Al/Cu composite busbar.

This paper is prepared as a developmental study of tited axis pistion type hydraulic motor for military applications. The high power precision hydraulic motor requires more advanced techniques to design, analyze, manufacture, test and evaluate. We are trying to build a HW/SW technology base about hydraulic motor by accomplishing this study completsly. We manufactured four perproduction model and performed the test and evaluation with the developmental specifications and test equipments. These results will be used in performance analysis and estimation, and the advanced model development for the military and commercial hydraulic motors.

Mechanical properties of rubber material are very important in design procedure to assure the safety and reliability of the rubber components. In this paper, the material test and accelerated heat aging test were carried out. In order to investigate the effects of heat-aging on the material properties, hardness, elongation, stress-strain curves and dynamic characteristics were obtained from various test conditions. Also, rubber material coefficients were determined by both the uniaxical and equi-biaxial tensile tests.
