This study was carried out to evaluate the structural property of double shear bolted connections in Korean Larch. For the main member, sawn lumber and Glulam were used in which thickness of lumber is 39 mm, 89 mm, 139 mm, 189 mm and Glulam 80 mm, 140 mm, 170 mm. For the side member, sawn lumber and steel plate were used in which thickness of lumber is the same of the main member and steel plate is 6mm. And connections were jointed by M12, M16, M20 bolts which were usually used for wood constructions in Korea. Directions of loading to connections were perpendicular and parallel to grain of main and side member. First, through the dowel bearing test, the dowel bearing strength was evaluated and through the bolt bending tests, the bolt bending strength was evaluated. And then experiments for the connection were performed. Obtained results from experiments were compared with calculated values by EYM and analyzed. Strength of double shear bolted connections in Korean Larch was similar or higher than calculated value by EYM. Especially when the side member was made by the sawn lumber, it was similar to the calculated value. In failure mode, the mode was effected by the knot and the dry defect. In the thin main member, it was shown mode I and as the thickness of the main member was thicker, it was changed into mode III.

Wood and concrete show significantly different physical properties, and it need to be firstly understood for using wood-concrete composite. This study is performed for compensating this and effective hybridization of wood and concrete. This research in planned for wood-concrete composite after previous research which deals the shear performance with different anchorage length of steel rebar in wood. Yield mode and reference design value (Z) were derived using EYM (European Yield Model). And the yield mode changed before and after anchorage length of 10~15 mm - $I_s$ mode to IV mode. There was not increasing tendency of shear performance with increased anchorage length for over 20 mm of anchorage in concrete. And wood composite shows 65% and 93% on initial stiffness and yield load respectively compared with the wood-concrete composite. Wood-concrete composite showed brittle failure after yield point while wood-to-wood composite showed ductile failure.

EYM (European Yield Model), which was adopted in NDS (National Design Specification for wood construction), has been used in Korea without any verification of the analysis of bolted wood connections. In the case of applying lumber from domestic small diameter logs, however, there are some problems with the direct application of EYM ; 1) relatively low dowel bearing strength and dimensional stability due to a large amount of immature wood, 2) effect of MC (moisture contents) on the dowel bearing strength of wood and the yield load of a bolted connection. To evaluate the strength properties of bolted connections with lumber from domestic small diameter logs, effect of MC on the dowel bearing strength of wood was investigated and double shear bolted connection tests were performed. As the MC of wood increased, the dowel bearing strength was linearly reduced, even under 19% MC, which showed that adjustment, not considered in NDS, was required. Double shear bolted connection tests indicated that effect of MC on yield load should be considered in order to determine design value.

This study suggests an attribute code system for earned value management system (EVMS). The attribute code system can be used for integrating various EYM data from construction schedule and cost. If the suggested attribute code is used in EVM, sorting and typical classifying of EVM data is possible in the computerized system. Those functions are an effective management tool for construction manager comparing with other EVM tools.

The wood-concrete composite can be effectively applied for bridge superstructure, and the concept of fully composite action between each member is one of the most important consideration. Until now, related researches have been done mainly in North America and EU countries not enough to cover the fundamental studies. Therefore, this study is planned to perform one of the important issue for using the wood-concrete composite. The objective of this study is evaluation of shear performance with different anchorage length of steel rebar in wood. Prediction of the yield mode and the reference design value was firstly performed as the preliminary investigation. Then, initial stiffness, yield load and maximum load were derived from the shear test due to different anchorage length of the steel rebar (SD30A in Korean Standard) in wood. It was found out from this study that initial stiffness and yield load are not related with the anchorage length over 20 mm of anchorage length while maximum load shows increasing tendency till 60 mm of anchorage length. Pullout strength of inserted steel rebar in wood is considered to be one reason and this was also verified with the x-ray radiography.
