Recently, the research on steel fiber reinforced concrete has been actively conducted to compensate the defect of brittle fracture of concrete and to enhance toughness. Therefore, the effect of the mixture rate of straight steel fiber on flexural behavior of high strength steel fiber reinforced concrete was evaluated in this research. As a result, when 2% of steel fiber was mixed with concrete volume ratio, it showed the best flexural capacity.

Recently, there have been the increase of ship size and the development of oil and gas in arctic region. These trends have led to the requirements such as high strength, good toughness at low temperature and good weldability for prevent of brittle fracture at service temperature. There has been the key issue of crack arrestability in large size structure such as container ship. In this report for the first time, crack arrest toughness of thick steel plate welds was evaluated by large scale ESSO test for estimate of brittle crack arrestability in thick steel plate. For large structures using thick steel plates, fracture toughness of welded joint is an important factor to obtain structural integrity. In general, there are two kinds of design concepts based on fracture toughness: crack initiation and crack arrest. So far, when steel structures such as buildings, bridges and ships were manufactured using thick steel plates (max. 80~100mm in thickness), they had to be designed in order to avoid crack initiation, especially in welded joint. However, crack arrest design has been considered as a second line of defense and applied to limited industries like pipelines and nuclear power plants. Although welded joint is the weakest part to brittle fracture, there are few results to investigate crack arrest toughness of welded joint. In this study, brittle crack arrest designs were developed for hatch side coaming of large container ships using arrest weld, hole, and insert technology.

This study employs the microshear test method to examine the local mechanical properties of narrow-gap welded joints, revealing the mechanical inhomogeneity by evaluating the microshear strength, stress-strain curves, and failure strain. On this basis, the influence of weld joints micromechanical inhomogeneity on the crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) fracture toughness is investigated. From the root weld layer to the cover weld layer, the fracture toughness at the center of the weld seam demonstrates an increasing trend, with the experimental and calculated CTOD values showing a good correspondence. The microproperties of the welded joints significantly impact the load-bearing capacity and fracture toughness. During the deformation process of the "low-matching" microregions, the plastic zone expansion is hindered by the surrounding microregion strength constraints, thus reducing the fracture toughness. In contrast, during the deformation of the "high-matching" microregions, the surrounding microregions absorb some of the loading energy, partially releasing the concentrated stress at the crack tip, which in turn increases the fracture toughness.

Tensile and fracture toughness tests of the cold-rolled STS 304 steel plate for membrane material of LNG storage tank were performed at wide range of temperatures, 11 IK(boiling point of LNG), 153K , 193K and 293K(room temperature). Tensile strength significantly increases with a decrease in temperature, but the yield strength is relatively insensitive to temperature. Elongation at 193K abruptly decreases by 50% of that at 293K, and then decreases slightly in the temperature range of 193K to 111K. Strain hardening exponents at low temperatures are about four times as high as that at 293K. Elastic-plastic fracture toughness($J_c$) and tearing modulus($T_{mat}$) tend to decrease with a decrease in temperature. The $J_c$ values are inversely related to effective yield strength in the temperature range of 111K to 293K. These phenomena result from a significant increase in the amount of transformed martensite in low temperature regions.

Bridge constructed recently is preferred to have a long span and a simple structure detail considering not only functions as bridge but scenic beauty, maintenance, construction term and life cycle cost, etc. Therefore, it demands a high quality steel like a thick plate steel and a high performance steel. A TMCP steel produced by theme-mechanical control process is now spotlighted due to the weldability for less carbon equivalent. It improved at strength and toughness in microstructure. Resently the SM570-TMC steel, a high strength TMCP steel whose tensile strength is 600MPa, is developed and applied to steel structures. But, for the application of this steel to steel structures, it is necessary to elucidate not only the material characteristics but also the mechanical characteristic of welded joint. In this paper, we investigated the characteristics of residual stresses generated by welding of SM570-TMC steels through an experimental study

During the past decades, development of reinforcing materials caused a revolution in the structure of high strength and high performance cement-based concrete. Among the most important and exciting reinforcing materials, Steel Fiber (SF) becomes a widely used in the recent years. The main reason for addition of SF is to enhance the toughness and tensile strength and limit development and propagation of cracks and deformation characteristics of the SF blended concrete. Basically this technique of strengthening the concrete structures considerably modifies the physical and mechanical properties of plain cement-based concrete which is brittle in nature with low flexural and tensile strength compared to its intrinsic compressive strength. This paper presents an overview of the work carried out on the use of SF as reinforcement in cement-based concrete matrix. Reported properties in this study are fresh properties, mechanical and durability of the blended concretes.

In fabrication of various welded structures made of high strength steels, the occurence of hydrogen assisted cracking and embrittlement in HAZ is prime importance. The present work was carried out to clarify the effect of chemical compositions, especially B and/or Ti addition on the cold cracking susceptibility and HAZ embrittlement in low crabon equivalent steel. Tests results showed that the addtio of optimum boron content in steel with low Pem value i.e., below 0.20 % was the best way to improve the weldability as well as the mechanicla properties of $60kg/mm^2$ grade quenched and tempered high strength steels.

Bridges constructed recently are preferred to have long spans and simple structure details considering not only the function as bridge but scenic beauty, maintenance, construction term and life cycle cost, etc. Therefore, they require high performance steels like extra-thick plate steels and TMCP steels. A TMCP steel produced by themo-mechanical control process is now spot lighted due to the weldability for less carbon equivalent. It improved at strength and toughness in microstructure. Recently, the SM570-TMC steel which is a high strength TMCP steel whose tensile strength is 600MPa has been developed and applied to steel structures. But, for the application of this steel to steel structures, it is necessary to elucidate not only the material characteristics but also the mechanical characteristic of welded joints. In this study, the characteristics of residual stresses in welded joints of SM570-TMC steel were studied through the three-dimensional thermal elastic-plastic analyses on the basis of mechanical properties at high temperatures obtained from the elevated temperature tensile test.

건축물이 고층이 될 수록 고강도 강재의 사용요구가 증대된다. 그러나 고강도 강재는 일반 강재와는 전혀 다른 기계적 특성을 갖고 있다. 고강도 강재를 건축구조물에 적용하기 위해서는 비탄성 영역에서의 거동이 일반 강재와 동등한가를 확인해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 최근 국내에서 개발된 SM570TMC 강재를 건축구조용으로 사용하기 위해서 기계적 성질 및 용접부 특성을 평가하였다. 연속항복현상을 보이는 SM570TMC 강재는 판두께가 증대되어도 강도저감이 발생되지 않았으며, 최소 항복강도가 440MPa로 나타났다. 또한 판두께 방향으로 균일한 경도분포를 보였다. -5oC에서의 Charpy 충격값도 충분한 인성을 보였다. 용접성과 관련있는 탄소당량은 기존 건축구조용 강재보다 훨씬 낮았으며, 용접부 특성도 우수하였다.
