The paper presents an innovative steel moment frame with the replaceable reinforced concrete wall panel (SRW) structural system, in which the replaceable concrete wall can play a role to increase the overall lateral stiffness of the frame system. Two full scale specimens composed of the steel frames and the replaceable reinforced concrete wall panels were tested under the cyclic horizontal load. The failure mode, load-displacement response, deformability, and the energy dissipation capacity of SRW specimens were investigated. Test results show that the two-stage failure mode is characterized by the sequential failure process of the replaceable RC wall panel and the steel moment frame. It can be found that the replaceable RC wall panels damage at the lateral drift ratio greater than 0.5%. After the replacement of a new RC wall panel, the new specimen maintained the similar capacity of resisting lateral load as the previous one. The decrease of the bearing capacity was presented between the two stages because of the connection failure on the top of the replaceable RC wall panel. With the increase of the lateral drift, the percentage of the lateral force and the overturning moment resisted by the wall panel decreased for the reason of the reduction of its lateral stiffness. After the failure of the wall panel, the steel moment frame shared almost all the lateral force and the overturning moment.

In this study, the shear behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC) beams that were retrofitted using precast panels of ultra-high performance fiber reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) is presented. The precast UHPFRC panels were glued to the side surfaces of RC beams using epoxy adhesive in two different configurations: (i) retrofitting two sides, and (ii) retrofitting three sides. Experimental tests on the adhesive bond were conducted to estimate the bond capacity between the UHPFRC and normal concrete. All the specimens were tested in shear under varying levels of shear span-to-depth ratio (a/d=1.0; 1.5). For both types of configuration, the retrofitted specimens exhibited a significant improvement in terms of stiffness, load carrying capacity and failure mode. In addition, the UHPFRC retrofitting panels glued in three-sides shifted the failure from brittle shear to a more ductile flexural failure with enhancing the shear capacity up to 70%. This was more noticeable in beams that were tested with a/d=1.5. An approach for the approximation of the failure capacity of the retrofitted RC beams was evolved using a multi-level regression of the data obtained from the experimental work. The predicted values of strength have been validated by comparing them with the available test data. In addition, a 3-D finite element model (FEM) was developed to estimate the failure load and overall behaviour of the retrofitted beams. The FEM of the retrofitted beams was conducted using the non-linear finite element software ABAQUS.

The objective of this paper is to investigate into bending and failure characteristics of ISB panel with dimple shapes as inner structures. Through three-points bending test, the force-displacement curve and the failure shape are obtained to examine the deformation pattern, characteristic data including maximum load and displacement at the maximum load and failure pattern for the ISB panel. In addition, the influence of design parameters for ISB panel on the bending stiffness and failure mode has been found. From the results of the experiments, it has been shown that bending and failure characteristics of the ISB panel can be controlled by the ratio of radius and the direction of the material.

국내의 건설실패 관련 연구는 체계화된 실패정보 분류체계 및 실패정보의 활용을 위한 방안을 제시하는 것에 초점을 맞추고 있다. 그러나, 건설현장의 한정된 관리자가 건설실패를 유발하는 다양한 원인에 대한 예방대책을 수립하는 것은 한계가 있다. 따라서, 효율적인 건설실패 예방활동이 이루지기 위해서는 많은 실패원인에 대한 정량적 평가를 통해 우선순위를 정하여 효율적인 예방대책이 수립되어야 한다. 이에 본 연구는 정량적인 평가를 통해 실패를 유발하는 핵심관리요인을 도출 할 수 있도록 FMEA(Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) 기법을 활용한 건설실패 핵심관리요인 선정방법을 제시하고, 공동주택 골조공사를 대상으로 핵심관리요인을 분석하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위해 FMEA 기법의 위험도를 실패 위험성과 예방성으로 구분하여 평가할 수 있도록 하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 핵심관리요인 평가방법은 건설실패의 사전예방대책을 효율적으로 수립하는데 활용될 수 있으며, 향후 유사한 연구를 통해 프로젝트 수행 단계별 혹은 다양한 시설 및 공종에 대한 핵심관리요인을 도출하는데 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper, an analytical model is proposed to predict the shear strenth of RC beams strengthened by FRP. This predictional model is composed of two basic models-the upper bound theorem for shear failure (shear tension or shear compression criteria) and a truss model based on the lower bound theorem for diagonal tension creteria. Also, a simple flexural theory based on USD is used to explain flexural failure. The major cause of destruction of RC beams shear strengthened by FRP does not lie in FRP fracture but in the loss of load capacity incurred by rip-off failure of shear strengthening material. Since interfacial shear stree between base concrete and the FRP is a major variable in rip-off failure mode, it is carefully analyzed to derive the shear strengthening effect of FRP. The ultimate shear strength and failure mode of RC beams, using different strengthening methods, estimated in this predictional model is then compared with the result derived from destruction experiment of RC beams shear strengthened using FRP. To verify the accuracy and consistency of the analysis, the estimated results using the predictional model are compared with various other experimental results and data from previous publications. The result of this comparative analysis showed that the estimates from the predictional model are in consistency with the experimental results. Therefore, the proposed shear strength predictional model is found to predict with relative accuracy the shear strength and failure mode of RC beams shear strengthened by FRP regardless of strengthening method variable.

복합재료는 비강도, 비강성 및 내부식성 등이 우수하여 항공우주산업뿐만 아니라 다양한 산업에서 사용되고 있다. 그러나 복합재료는 충격에 취약하고 이러한 충격은 복합 재료 내부의 균열 형성과 균열 성장으로 이어져 구조 파단의 원인이 된다. 본 논문에서는 음향 방출 신호 및 유한요소해석(Finite element analysis, FEA)을 이용하여 복합재 적층판의 Mode I 파괴 모드의 특성을 분석하였다. DCB 시험은 탄소/에폭시 적층판의 Mode I 파괴 특성을 분석하기 위하여 수행되었고 시편의 파괴에 의해서 발생되는 탄성파를 측정하기 위하여 시편에 음향 방출 센서를 부착하였다. 누적 음향 방출 에너지와 균열 선단 위치의 관계를 이용하여 시편의 파괴 인성(Fracture toughness, G_I)을 계산하였다. 계산된 파괴 인성 값을 유한요소모델에 적용하여 해석을 수행하였고 하중-변위 곡선 및 균열 길이-변위 곡선을 통하여 DCB 시험 결과와 비교/분석하였다. 유한요소해석 및 DCB 시험의 결과가 잘 일치함을 보였다.

지하관거 균열로 인한 지하수의 흐름은 주변 지반의 토사유실을 야기하여 관거 인접 지반에서의 공동발생, 나아가 지반함몰(싱크홀) 원인이 된다. 본 연구는 관거의 균열을 모사하는 모형시험을 통해 비점착성 지반에 위치한 지중 비압력 관거의 균열로부터 비롯되는 지반함몰 메커니즘과 이로 인한 파괴모드를 조사하였다. 토사유실 및 함몰 영향인자로서 균열크기, 관거유속, 지하수위, 토피고 그리고 지반구성재료 등을 채택하여 이들 인자들이 함몰거동에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 각 인자들에 따른 지반파괴의 형상(파괴모드)과 지반유실량을 분석한 결과, 토피고와 지하수위가 일치하는 경우 최종파괴모드는 침식각이 불연속적으로 변화하는 'Y'형으로 관찰되며, 지하수위가 더 높게 위치하는 경우 침식각이 일정한 파괴면 형상인 'V'형으로 나타난다. 토피고가 증가하는 경우의 파괴형상에서 토피고 영향에 무관한 길이와 토피고에 따라 점진적으로 증가하는 폭을 갖는 수직함몰구간이 형성되는 결과를 얻었다.

Objectives: This study compared the Biodentine, MTA Repair HP, and Bio-C Repair bioceramics in terms of bond strength to dentin, failure mode, and compression. Materials and Methods: Fifty-four slices obtained from the cervical third of 18 single-rooted human mandibular premolars were randomly distributed (n = 18). After insertion of the bioceramic materials, the push-out test was performed. The failure mode was analyzed using stereomicroscopy. Another set of cylindrically-shaped bioceramic samples (n = 10) was prepared for compressive strength testing. The normality of data distribution was analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk test. The Kruskal-Wallis and Friedman tests were used for the push-out test data, while compressive strength was analyzed with analysis of variance and the Tukey test, considering a significance level of 0.05. Results: Biodentine presented a higher median bond strength value (14.79 MPa) than MTA Repair HP (8.84 MPa) and Bio-C Repair (3.48 MPa), with a significant difference only between Biodentine and Bio-C Repair. In the Biodentine group, the most frequent failure mode was mixed (61%), while in the MTA Repair HP and Bio-C Repair groups, it was adhesive (94% and 72%, respectively). Biodentine showed greater resistance to compression (29.59 ± 8.47 MPa) than MTA Repair HP (18.68 ± 7.40 MPa) and Bio-C Repair (19.96 ± 3.96 MPa) (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Biodentine showed greater compressive strength than MTA Repair HP and Bio-C Repair, and greater bond strength than Bio-C Repair. The most frequent failure mode of Biodentine was mixed, while that of MTA Repair HP and Bio-C Repair was adhesive.

Inelastic static pushover analysis has been used in the academic-research widely for seismic analysis of structures. Nowadays, the variety pushover analysis methods have been developed, including Modal pushover, Adaptive pushover, and Cyclic pushover, in which some weaknesses of the conventional pushover method have been rectified. In the conventional pushover analysis method, the effects of cumulative growth of cracks are not considered on the reduction of strength and stiffness of RC members that occur during earthquake or cyclic loading. Therefore, the Cyclic Pushover Analysis Method (CPA) has been proposed. This method is a powerful technique for seismic evaluation of regular reinforced concrete buildings in which the first mode of them is dominant. Since the bridges have different structures than buildings, their results cannot necessarily be attributed to bridges, and more research is needed. In this study, a cyclic pushover analysis with four loading protocols (suggested by valid references) by the Opensees software was conducted for seismic evaluation of two regular reinforce concrete bridges. The modeling method was validated with the comparison of the analytical and experimental results under both cyclic and dynamic loading. The failure mode of the piers was considered in two-mode of flexural failure and also a flexural-shear failure. Along with the cyclic analysis, conventional analysis has been studied. Also, the nonlinear incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) method has been used to examine and compare the results of pushover analyses. The time history of 20 far-field earthquake records was used to conduct IDA. After analysis, the base shear vs. displacement in the middle of the deck was drawn. The obtained results show that the cyclic pushover analysis method is able to evaluate an accurate seismic behavior of the reinforced concrete piers of the bridges. Based on the results, the cyclic pushover has proper convergence with IDA. Its accuracy was much higher than the conventional pushover, in which the bridge piers failed in flexural-shear mode. But, in the flexural failure mode, the results of each two pushover methods were close approximately. Besides, the cyclic pushover method with ACI loading protocol, and ATC-24 loading protocol, can provided more accurate results for evaluating the seismic investigation of the bridges, specially if the bridge piers are failed in flexural-shear failure mode.
