A new foundation type which is called Top-Base method has been used frequently in engineering practices in Korea. In this study, the settlement behavior of concrete Top-Base foundation on soft ground is investigated since the consolidation settlement of the embedding depth and the effect of footing dimensions are not included in current Korean criterion (2007). To obtain detailed information, the model tests of the Top-Base foundation are performed using the PLAXIS 3D finite element analysis. It is shown that in-situ measurements and finite element analysis of the behavior of foundations indicate that consolidation settlement is reduced up and bearing capacity of the foundation increases up to 50%~100%, compared to the primary non-treated ground. Based on this study, it is found that the Top-Base foundation prevents the lateral deformation of soft ground and reduces its negative dilatancy to the surface settlement, and that the foundation creates rather uniform stress distribution under it to increase its bearing capacity. It is also found that the total settlement of Top-Base foundation was highly dependent on the consolidation settlement and footing configurations.

There are separate merits and demerits to wood and steel. The combination of wood and steel as a compound section is able to improve the properties of both and ultimately increase their final bearing capacity. The composite cross-section made of steel and wood has higher hardness while showing more ductility and the local buckling of steel is delayed or completely prevented. The purpose of this study is to investigate the behavior of composite columns enclosed in wooden logs and the hollow sections of steel that will be examined in a laboratory environment under the axial load to determine the final bearing capacity and sample deformation. In terms of methodology, steel sheet and carbon fiber reinforced polymer sheet (FRP) are tested to construct hollow rectangular sections and reinforce timber. Besides, the method of connecting hollow sections and timber including glue and screw has been also investigated. As a result, timber lumber enclosed with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer sheets in which fibers are horizontally located at 90° are more resistant with better ductility.

연안개발과 해안매립을 사용하여 개발된 새로운 도시 건설의 수요가 증가하면서 해안구조물과 고층구조물의 시공이 증가하는 추세이다. 이러한 구조물에서 수평력과 인발력을 받는 구조물의 기초의 적용이 증가하고 있으며, 특히 구조물에서 인발력에 효과적으로 저항하기 위한 기초형식으로 선단확장형말뚝의 사용이 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 압축력을 받는 기초에 관한 많은 연구들이 이루어지고 있으나, 선단확장형말뚝의 인발저항에 관한 연구는 미비한 상태이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 국외 4개 현장을 대상으로 선단확장형말뚝을 시공하고 정재하시험을 실시하여 말뚝의 지지력 및 하중-변위특성과 주면마찰력을 고려한 하중분담을 고찰하였다. 또한 3차원 유한요소해석 및 이론에 의해 산정된 극한인발력과 현장시험의 극한인발력을 비교 평가하였다.

Shell foundations have been employed as an alternative for the conventional flat shallow foundations and have proven to provide economical advantage. They have shown considerably improved performance in terms of ultimate capacity and settlement characteristics. However, despite conical shell foundations are frequently used in industry, the theoretical solutions for bearing capacity of these footings are available for only triangular shell strip foundations. The benefits in design aspects can be achieved through theoretical solutions considering shell geometry. The engineering behavior of a conical shell foundation on mixed soils was investigated experimentally and theoretically in this study. The failure mechanism was obtained by conducting laboratory model tests. Based on that, the theoretical solution of bearing capacity was developed and validated with experimental results, in terms of the internal angle of the cone. In comparison to the circular flat foundation, the results show 15% increase of ultimate load and 51% decrease of settlement at an angle of intersection of $120^{\circ}$. Based on the results, the design chart of modified bearing capacity coefficients for conical shell foundation is proposed.

본 논문에서는 기존 공장제작 콘크리트 팽이기초가 갖는 문제점들을 해결 보완하기 위해 개발된 현장타설 팽이기초의 거동특성을 검토하고자, 현장재하시험 결과를 근거로 팽이기초의 수치해석 모델링을 하였으며, 구성된 수치해석 모델을 이용하여 기초형식 및 형상 변화에 따른 거동특성을 비교 분석하였다. 수치해석 결과, 현장타설 팽이기초 (In-situ TBF)는 전단활동파괴면이 더 깊고 넓게 형성되어 지반파괴에 대한 저항력이 증가하게 되고, 이로 인해 지지력이 향상되는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 기초의 형상에 따른 효과는 원추부에 의한 것 보다는 말뚝부에 의한 효과가 더 큰 것으로 나타났으며, 원추부와 말뚝부가 조합되어 이루어진 팽이기초 형상이 가장 큰 효과를 나타내는 것으로 나타났다. 말뚝부의 길이를 증가시키면서 해석을 수행한 결과, 현재 사용되고 있는 팽이기초말뚝부의 길이가 효율적 크기라는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다.

The nodular diaphragm wall (NDW) is a novel type of foundation with favorable engineering characteristics, which has already been utilized in high-rise buildings and high-speed railways. Compared to traditional diaphragm walls, the NDW offers significantly improved vertical bearing capacity due to the presence of nodular parts while reducing construction time and excavation work. Despite its potential, research on the vertical bearing characteristics of NDW requires further study, and the investigation and visualization of its displacement pattern and failure mode are scant. Meanwhile, the measurement of the force component acting on the nodular parts remains challenging. In this paper, the vertical bearing characteristics of NDW are studied in detail through the indoor model test, and the displacement and failure mode of the foundation is analyzed using particle image velocimetry (PIV) technology. The principles and methods for monitoring the force acting on the nodular parts are described in detail. The research results show that the nodular part plays an essential role in the bearing capacity of the NDW, and its maximum load-bearing ratio can reach 30.92%. The existence of the bottom nodular part contributes more to the bearing capacity of the foundation compared to the middle nodular part, and the use of both middle and bottom nodular parts increases the bearing capacity of the foundation by about 9~12% compared to a single nodular part of the NDW. The increase in the number of nodular parts cannot produce a simple superposition effect on the resistance born by the nodular parts since the nodular parts have an insignificant influence on the exertion and distribution of the skin friction of NDW. The existence of the nodular part changes the displacement field of the soil around NDW and increases the displacement influence range of the foundation to a certain extent. For NDWs with three different nodal arrangements, the failure modes of the foundations appear to be local shear failures. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the performance and behavior of NDWs, which will aid in their effective utilization and further research in the field.

본 연구에서는 해상 교량 현장과 초고층빌딩 현장에서 실시한 암반에 근입된 대구경 현장타설말뚝의 양방향 재하시험(총 4개 현장, 13개 말뚝) 결과를 분석하여 연암에서의 주면마찰력과 선단지지력 산정을 위한 경험식을 제안하였다. 양방향 재하시험을 위하여 각 시험 말뚝의 정 중앙 위치에서 시추 및 지반조사가 이루어졌으며, 각 말뚝에 부착한 계측장치로부터 얻은 데이터를 이용하여 주면의 f-w 곡선과 선단의 q-w 곡선을 작성하였다. 이 곡선들로부터 - 지반조사결과들과 주면마찰력 및 선단지지력에 대한 다중회귀분석을 실시하여 - 변위에 따른 극한 주면마찰력과 선단지지력 산정식을 제안하였으며, 이 결과를 기존의 경험식들과 비교 분석하였다. 변위가 증가할수록 지지력이 증가하는 국내 암반의 f-w 곡선과 q-w 곡선의 특성상, 다양한 말뚝 변위기준에 따라 제안한 경험식들이 변위와 무관하게 일정한 극한값으로 제안된 기존의 경험식들보다 더 합리적인 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구의 제안식들 중에서 일축압축강도의 함수로 나타낸 주면마찰력 및 선단지지력에 대한 제안식이 다른 지반정수들에 의한 경험식보다 좋은 상관관계를 보여주는 것으로 나타났다.

The characteristics of lightweight aggregate (LWA) with a low specific gravity and high water absorption will significantly change the properties of lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC). This study aimed at exploring the effect of presoaking degree of LWA on the strength degeneracy of LWAC and flexural behavior of LWAC members exposed to elevated temperatures. The residual mechanical properties of the LWAC subjected to elevated temperatures were first conducted. Then, the residual load tests of LWAC members (beams and slabs) after exposure to elevated temperatures were carried out. The test results showed that with increasing temperature, the decreasing trend of elastic modulus for LWAC was considerably more serious than the compressive strength. Besides, the presoaking degree of LWA had a significant influence on the residual compressive strength and elastic modulus for LWAC after exposure to $800^{\circ}C$. Moreover, owing to different types of heating, the residual load bearing capacity of the slab specimens were significantly different from those of the beam specimens.

The shear behavior of simply supported reinforced concrete deep beams subject to concentrated loads has been scrutinized experimentally to verify the influence of the structural parameters such as shear span ratio, and the horizontal and vertical web reinforcements. A total of 27 specimens has been tested at the laboratory. In the tests all specimens have failed in shear causing inclined cracks from the load application points to the supports. The load bearing capacities have changed significantly depending on the shear span ratio. The effects of the vertical and horizontal reinforcements on the shear strength and crack initiation and propagation have been carefully checked and analyzed.
