본 연구에서는 섬유 광학의 감지 장치 중 하나인 FBG 센서 및 시스템에 관하여 검토하였다. FBG 센서의 문제는 매우 가늘고 약하다는 것이다. 이를 위해 충격과 같은 외부의 요인으로부터 FBG 센서를 보호할 수 있는 방법을 다각적으로 모색하였다. 철근을 대체할 수 있는 FRP 복합재에 FBG 센서를 삽입하여 실험을 실시하여 그 결과를 검토하였으며, 삽입되기 전의 자연스러운 Fiber 상태와 비교 분석하였다. 이 연구에서 철근 대용 복합재료에 삽입된 FBG 센서는 기존의 삽입되지 않은 일반 광섬유센서와 비교 시, 복합재료의 보강효과에 의해 최대 변형률이 기존보다 크게 나타났으며, 내구성 측면에서도 좋은 성능을 발휘할 것으로 예상된다.

Steel-concrete composite beam with profiled steel sheet has gained its popularity in the last two decades. Due to the ageing of these structures, retrofitting in terms of flexural strength is necessary to ensure that the aged structures can carry the increased traffic load throughout their design life. The steel ribs, which presented in the profiled steel deck, limit the use of shear connectors. This leads to a poor degree of composite action between the concrete slab and steel beam compared to the solid slab situation. As a result, the shear connectors that connects the slab and beam will be subjected to higher shear stress which may also require strengthening to increase the load carrying capacity of an existing composite structure. While most of the available studies focus on the strengthening of longitudinal shear and flexural strength separately, the present work investigates the effect of both flexural and longitudinal shear strengthening of steel-concrete composite beam with composite slab in terms of failure modes, ultimate load carrying capacity, ductility, end-slip, strain profile and interface differential strain. The flexural strengthening was conducted using carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) or steel plate on the soffit of the steel I-beam, while longitudinal shear capacity was enhanced using post-installed high strength bolts. Moreover, a combination of both the longitudinal shear and flexural strengthening techniques was also implemented (hybrid strengthening). It is concluded that hybrid strengthening improved the ultimate load carrying capacity and reduce slip and interface differential strain that lead to improved composite action. However, hybrid strengthening resulted in brittle failure mode that decreased ductility of the beam.

본 연구의 목적은 실험을 통하여 FRP를 이용한 철근콘크리트 부재의 표면매립 전단보강 효과를 규명하는 것이다. 연구목적을 달성하기 위하여, 3개의 철근콘크리트 T형 보를 제작하고 이중 두 개의 보에 대해서 표면매립 보강방법으로 FRP를 전단보강한 뒤 실험을 통하여 보강효과를 규명하였다. 실험에서 두 가지의 전단보강방법을 고려하였는데, 첫째 충분한 매립길이를 가진 표면매립 (NSM) 보강, 둘째 다소 짧은 표면매립길이를 가지지만 추가의 표면부착 (EB) 보강을 한 경우이다. 연구결과, FRP strip을 이용한 표면매립길이를 플랜지 하부까지 길게 확보할 경우에는 충분한 전단보강효과가 발휘되는 것으로 나타났다. 반면에 충분한 매립길이가 확보되지 않은 경우에는 FRP sheet로 추가 보강하더라도 전단보강효과가 나타나지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

Prefabricated exterior wall panel is the main non-load-bearing component of assembly building, which affects the comprehensive performance of thermal insulation and durability of the building. It is of great significance to develop new prefabricated exterior wall panel with durable and lightweight characteristics for the development of energy-saving and assembly building. In the prefabricated sandwich insulation hanging wall panel, the selection of material for the outer layer and the arrangement of the connector of the inner and outer wall layers affect the mechanical performance and durability of the wall panels. In this paper, high performance cement-based composites (HPFRC) are used in the outer layer of the new type wall panel. FRP bars are used as the interface connector. Through experiments and analysis, the influence of the arrangement of connectors on the mechanical behaviors of thin-walled composite wall panel and the panel with window openings under two working conditions are investigated. The failure modes and the role of connectors of thin-walled composite wallboard are analyzed. The influence of the thickness of the wall layer and their combination on the strain growth of the control section, the initial crack resistance, the ultimate bearing capacity and the deformation of the wall panels are analyzed. The research work provides a technical reference for the engineering design of the light-weight thin-walled and durable composite sandwich wall panel.

Most of current bridge decks are made of reinforced concrete and often deteriorate at a relatively rapid rate in operational environments. The quick deterioration of the deck often impacts other critical components of the bridge. Another disadvantage of the concrete deck is its high weight in long-span bridges. Therefore, it is essential to examine new materials and innovative designs using hybrid system consisting conventional materials such as concrete and steel with FRP plates which is also known as composite deck. Since these decks are relatively new, so it would be useful to evaluate their performances in more details. The present study is dedicated to Hat-Shape composite girder with concrete slab. The structural performance of girder was evaluated with nonlinear finite element method by using ABAQUS and numerical results have been compared with experimental results of other researches. After ensuring the validity of numerical modeling of composite deck, parametric studies have been conducted; such as investigating the effects of constituent properties by changing the compressive strength of concrete slab and Elasticity modulus of GFRP materials. The efficacy of the GFRP box girders has been studied by changing GFRP material to steel and aluminum. In addition, the effect of Cross-Sectional Configuration has been evaluated. It was found that the behavior of this type of composite girders can be studied with numerical methods without carrying out costly experiments. The material properties can be modified to improve ultimate load capacity of the composite girder. strength-to-weight ratio of the girder increased by changing the GFRP material to aluminum and ultimate load capacity enhanced by deformation of composite girder cross-section.

일반적으로 폴리우레아는 부착성능, 신장률, 투수 저항성이 매우 높아서 구조물의 방수 코팅재료로 많이 사용되고 있다. 또한, 스프레이건을 이용하여 쉽고 빠르게 작업이 가능하며, 약 30초 이내에 경화가 되기 때문에 시공성도 매우 뛰어나 우수한 기능성 재료로 각광받고 있다. 그러나, 건설산업에서 폴리우레아는 대부분이 방수코팅재료로 사용되고 있으며, 구조물의 성능을 향상시키는 보강재로 사용하기 위한 연구는 전무하다. 따라서, 본 연구는 폴리우레아를 일반 구조물의 보강재로 사용하기 위한 기초적인 연구로 폴리우레아의 구성성분의 변화에 따른 영향을 파악하고자 한다. 또한, 개발된 폴리우레아의 구조 보강성능을 확인하기 위하여, RC 보와 슬래브를 제작하여 휨 성능 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과, 폴리우레아는 콘크리트 시험체와 일체거동을 보이며, 연성과 강성이 상승하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, 섬유시트와 폴리우레아로 2중 보강한 시편은 오히려 섬유시트만으로 보강한 시편보다 낮은 성능을 보이는 것으로 나타났다.
