This paper introduces a new steel jacketing method for reinforced concrete columns with lap splice and evaluates its performance by a series of axial tests of concrete cylinders. At first, 45 concrete cylinders were fabricated with varying the design compressive strengths of 21, 27 and 35 MPa and, then, the part of them was jacketed with two-split-steel jackets under lateral confining pressure. The parameters in the first test were the steel jacket's thickness and the existence of adhesive between steel and concrete surface. In the second test, whole steel jackets were used to wrap cylinders with lateral pressure. Also, a double-layer jacket consisted of two steel plates was introduced; a cylinder was jacketed by two steel plates one after another. The effect of the new method was verified through comparing the results of the compressive tests for plain and jacketed cylinders. The steel jacket built following the new method showed good results of increasing the compressive strength and ductility of the jacketed cylinders with respect to the plain cylinders. The thicker steel jackets showed the more increased compressive strength, and the ductility at failure depended on the welding quality on steel jackets. The adhesive between steel and concrete surface reduced the confining effect of the steel jackets. The whole jacket showed more ductile behavior than the two-split jackets. The double-layered jackets were estimated to possess an equal performance to that of a single steel jacket having the same thickness of the double-layered jacket. Finally, the experimental results were compared with the constitutive model of steel-jacketed concrete; which showed a good agreement between the experimental results and the models.

In recent years, concrete-filled box or tubular columns have been commonly used in high-rise buildings. However, a number of fire test results show that there are significant differences between high strength concrete (HSC) and normal strength concrete (NSC) after being subjected to high temperatures. Therefore, this paper presents an investigation on the fire resistance of HSC filled steel tubular columns (CFTCs) under combined temperature and loading. Two groups of full-size specimens were fabricated to consider the effect of type of concrete infilling (plain and reinforced) and the load level on the fire resistance of CFTCs. Prior to fire test, a constant compressive load (i.e., load level for fire design) was applied to the column specimens. Thermal load was then applied on the column specimens in form of ISO 834 standard fire curve in a large-scale laboratory furnace until the set experiment termination condition was reached. The results demonstrate that the higher the axial load level, the worse the fire resistance. Moreover, in the bar-reinforced concrete-filled steel tubular columns, the presence of rebars not only decreased the spread of cracks and the sudden loss of strength, but also contributed to the load-carrying capacity of the concrete core.

The imperfect steel-concrete interface bonding is an important deficiency of the concrete-filled double skin tubular (CFDST) columns that led to separating concrete and steel surfaces under lateral loads and triggering buckling failure of the columns. To improve this issue, it is proposed in this study to use longitudinal and transverse steel stiffeners in CFDST columns. CFDST columns with different patterns of stiffeners embedded in the interior or exterior surfaces of the inner or outer tubes were analyzed under constant axial force and reversed cyclic loading. In the finite element modeling, the confinement effects of both inner and outer tubes on the compressive strength of concrete as well as the effect of discrete crack for concrete fracture were incorporated which give a realistic prediction of the seismic behavior of CFDST columns. Lateral strength, stiffness, ductility and energy absorption are evaluated based on the hysteresis loops. The results indicated that the stiffeners had determinant role on improving pinching behavior resulting from the outer tube's local buckling and opening/closing of the major tensile crack of concrete. The lateral strength, initial stiffness and energy absorption capacity of longitudinally stiffened columns with fixed-free end condition were increased by as much as 17%, 20% and 70%, respectively. The energy dissipation was accentuated up to 107% for fixed-guided end condition. The use of transverse stiffeners at the base of columns increased energy dissipation up to 35%. Axial load ratio, hollow ratio and concrete strength affecting the initial stiffness and lateral strength, had negligible effect of the energy dissipation of the columns. It was also found that the longitudinal stiffeners and transverse stiffeners have, respectively, negative and positive effects on ductility of CFDST columns. The conclusions, drawn from this study, can in turn, lead to the suggestion of some guidelines for the design of CFDST columns.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the performance of Lightweight Aggregate Concrete Filled Steel Tube (LWCFST) columns experimentally and compare to the behavior of Self-Compacted Concrete Filled Steel Tube (SCCFST) columns under axial loading. Four different L/D ratios and three D/t ratios were used in the experimental program to delve into the compression behaviours. Compressive strength of the LWC and SCC are 33.47 MPa and 39.71 MPa, respectively. Compressive loading versus end shortening curves and the failure mode of sixteen specimens were compared and discussed. The design specification formulations of AIJ 2001, AISC 360-16, and EC4 were also assessed against test results to underline the performance of specification methods in predicting the compression capacity of LWCFST and SCCFST columns. Based on the behaviour of the SCCFST columns, LWCFST columns exhibited different performances, especially in ductility and failure mode. The nature of the utilized lightweight aggregate led to local buckling mode to be dominant in LWCFST columns, even the long LWCFST specimens suffered from this behaviour. While with the SCCFST specimens the global buckling governed the failure mode of long specimens without any loss in capacity. Considering a wide range of column geometries (short, medium and long columns), this paper extends the current knowledge in composite construction by examining the potential of two promising and innovative structural concrete types in CFST applications.

SN 강재를 건축구조용으로 사용하기 위해서는 설계기준강도가 제정되어야 한다. 선행 연구로써, SN400B/490B 후판재로 재판한 SN400B/490B 원형강관과 SPAP235/325 및 SPAR295 각형강관의 물성을 평가하였다. SN400B/490B 후판재와 비교했을 때 STKN400B/490B 원형강관의 항복인장 및 인장강도는 상승하였지만, 제조 프로세스에 무관하게 STKN400B/490B 원형강관의 규격을 만족 하였다. 그러나 SPAP235/325 각형강관 모서리부에서의 항복인장 및 인장강도는 규격을 벗어났다. 이것은 SPAP235/325 각형강관 규격에서 정하고 있는 값이 모서리부에서의 값이 아니라 변에서의 값이기 때문이다. STKN490B 원형강관에 발생한 최대 인장잔류응력은 모재 항복강도 수준이며, 최대 압축잔류응력은 모재 항복강도의 40% 수준이었다. 또한 SPAP325 각형강관에 발생한 최대 인장잔류응력과 최대 압축잔류응력은 모두 모재 항복강도의 80% 수준이었다. 중심압축실험을 한 결과 STKN490B 원형강관의 좌굴강도는 제조 프로세스에 관계없이 별 차이를 보이지 않았다. 그러나 각형강관의 경우는 SPAP325 각형강관이 SN490B로 built-up한 각형강관보다 좌굴강도가 높게 나타났다.

The initial buckling of thin walled structures does not result in immediate failure. This post buckling capability is used to achieve light weight design, and final failure of thin walled structure is called crippling. To predict the failure load, empirical methods are often used for thin walled structures in design stage. But empirical method accuracy depend on geometry. In this study, experimental, empirical and numerical study of the crippling behavior of I-section beam made of carbon-epoxy are performed. The progressive failure analysis model to simulate the crippling failure is evaluated using the test results. In this study, commercial software LS-DYNA is utilized to compute the collapse load of composite specimen. Six kinds of specimens were tested in axial compression where correlation between analytical and experimental results has performed. From the results, we have partially conclude that the flange width-to-thickness ratio is found to influence the accuracy of empirical and numerical method.

일반적으로 압축을 받는 판 구조는 종방향 보강재를 이용하여 보강된다. 이 때 보강재로서 U형 단면 리브를 사용하는 것이 보다 효과적이나, 현재 국내에서 이에 대한 명확한 설계지침이나 연구자료가 제시되지 못하고 있다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 U리브의 단면 크기 및 강성 등에 따른 보강판의 탄성좌굴강도를 살펴보고자 한다. 유한요소해석 프로그램인 ABAQUS를 이용하여 세 가지 타입의 U형 단면 리브를 적용한 해석모델을 수립하여 고유치 해석을 실시하였고, 양연지지된 판의 국부좌굴강도 이론식과 본 해석적 결과를 비교하였다. 이러한 분석 결과를 토대로 U형 단면리브에 의해 좌굴강도가 증진하는 보강 효과를 확인하였으며, 설계 파라미터에 따른 변수해석적 연구를 통해 그 영향을 분석하였다. 본 연구결과는 U리브 보강판의 적정 설계 방안을 제시하는데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구에서는 콘크리트 내에 강섬유를 혼입하여 기둥자체의 인성력을 확대시키는 방안을 구조실험을 통해 분석하고자 한다. 내부 앵커형 용접조립 각형 기둥에 강섬유 보강 콘크리트를 충전하여 구조 거동을 고찰하였다. 강섬유 혼입량과 가력조건을 변수로 하여 총 10개의 단주를 제작하여 단조재하 실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 휨 모멘트력이 발생될 때 강섬유 콘크리트는 특유의 성질인 균열 후 인장강도가 발현되어 내력 및 거동에 유리하게 작용되는 것으로 보인다. 미소 분량의 강섬유 혼입으로 축력과 휨내력이 향상 가능한 것은 매우 합리적인 단면설계가 가능하며 이를 적극적으로 설계에 반영될 필요가 있다.

Segmental Retaining Wall(SRW) has been variously applying in Civil and Architecture construction. Recently, the application of environmental element in all type's structures came to essential requirement, and the construction cases of retaining wall using reinforced soil and block are more increased than the past. But, this trend more widely was spread environmental element as landscape work for the backside of reinforced retaining wall as well as block itself. New environmental block, Greenstone Block, developed to apply of this tendency. The retaining wall system using Greenstone can be environmental constructing at both block itself and backside of retaining wall. The material tests, the axial compressive strength test of block and bending test of fiber-pipe, exercised to design and construction of vertical SRW, which were satisfied NCMA standard. Through this procedure, Rewall (ver 1.0) was developed, which can be automation design of SRW including internal stability, external stability and local stability. And these can be considered setback of retaining wall, as well the examples of vertical retaining wall using block presented to satisfying the follows; strength of reinforced geotextile, height of retaining wall, surcharge, types of backfill and groundwater level etc. Many problems investigated on after or before of construction were due to local failure, insufficiency of bearing capacity and groundwater level. Especially, the local failure was many occurred to during compaction or after construction, and the cases of SRW construction is similar to the results of model test on vertical SRW.
