This paper presents F.E.M. analysis result about the behavior of R.C. beam repaired with steel plate and fiber sheet. The effect of repairing varies with reinforcement ratio of R.C. beam, plate thickness, numbers of fiber sheet, and repairing length, etc. F.E.M. analysis using a program, DIANA, was carried out taking these factors as parameter in this study. Analysis result shows that repaired R.C. beam behaves differently according to parameters and certain cases imply that repairing is useless or may lay structure in dangerous condition. F.E.M. model considers that interfacial behavior between different two parts of repaired beam is rigid based on an assumption that adhesive failure does not appear before yielding of reinforcement and its analysis shows the result coincides with that of experiment.

In this study, we examined the proper spacing between the expansion joints according to the temperature load of the inter-modal terminal platform infrastructure to implement a new inter-modal automated freight transport system, which we intend to introduce in Korea. To review the proper expansion joint spacing of the terminal platforms, we set the maximum expansion joint spacing according to the regional temperature changes using the equation proposed by the Federal Construction Council (FCC) of the United States. Then, the maximum displacement value, which was calculated through the structural analysis program, and the limit of the horizontal displacement of the building structure were compared. The proper expansion joint spacing was selected as the slab length at which the maximum displacement of the structure, due to temperature changes, was below the horizontal displacement limit. Based on the application of maximum expansion joint spacing for each region calculated through the FCC's suggestion, the maximum displacement that could occur within the limit of the lateral displacement of the structure was determined.

The seismic design of a two-storey precast reinforced-concrete building structure equipped with viscous dampers is presented in this paper with twofold purpose. The first goal is to verify the applicability of a practical procedure for the identification of the mechanical characteristics of the viscous dampers which allow to achieve target performance levels, originally proposed by the authors for moment-resisting building frames, also with reference to "pendular" structures. The second goal is to investigate the effectiveness of the use of viscous dampers (as compared with traditional lateral-resisting stiff braces) for the seismic design of precast not moment-resisting concrete structures.

The porous pellets were prepared from porphyry by slurry foaming method. The effect of sintering temperatures on pore structure of porous porphyry pellets with different extension ratio ($E_R$) was investigated by specific surface area, water absorption and porosity, which changed with sintering temperatures. When the sintering temperatures increased from $975^{\circ}C$ to $1075^{\circ}C$, specific surface area and water absorption of the all samples decreased. In case of the sample with an equal sintering temperature, $E_R=3.0$ pellets had little influence on pore structure compared to the $E_R=2.0$ pellets. As a results, it was shown by SEM that facilitated formation of micro pores at $E_R=2.0$ pellets shrunk increasingly after sintering process. At $E_R=3.0$ and sintering temperature at $1025^{\circ}C$, optimum conditions of the porous porphyry porous pellets was found. Also, Escherichia coli removal efficiency of the silver-containing porphoyry porous pellets was measured for the feasibility as a antibacterial media. The antibacterial activity of prepared silver-containing sample was maintained above 90% for 40 days.

An evaluation is presented of the response of a 3-storey R/C structure during the destructive Lefkada earthquake of 14/08/2003. Key aspects of the event include: (1) the unusually strong levels of ground motion (PGA = 0.48 g, $SA_{max}$ = 2.2 g) recorded approximately 10 km from fault, in downtown Lefkada; (2) the surprisingly low structural damage in the area; (3) the very soft soil conditions ($V_{s,max}$ = 150 m/s). Structural, geotechnical and seismological aspects of the earthquake are discussed. The study focuses on a 3-storey building, an elongated structure of rectangular plan supported on strip footings, that suffered severe column damage in the longitudinal direction, yet minor damage in the transverse one. Detailed spectral and time-history analyses highlight the interplay of soil, foundation and superstructure in modifying seismic demand in the two orthogonal directions of the building. It is shown that soil-structure interaction may affect inelastic seismic response and alter the dynamic behavior even for relatively flexible systems such as the structure at hand.

An Organometallic compound, $C_{12}H_{20}B_{10}S_2Co_2$, was synthesized from o-carborane, $Cp^*Co(S_2B_2B_{10}H_{10})$ and $BH_3{\cdot}THF$. The molecular structure of this complex has been determined by X-ray diffraction. Crystallographic data: monoclinic, space group Cc, a=15.981(4) ${\AA}$, b=15.478(17) ${\AA}$, c=12.0562(17) ${\AA}$, ${\beta}=115.063(16)^{\circ}$, Z=4, V=9683(4) ${\AA}^3$. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by full-matrix leat-squares methods to give a model with a reliability factor R = 0.0630 for 9948 reflections.

In this paper, the new non-destructive equation will be proposed and evaluated in comparison to the other foreign's non-destructive equation. Through the comparisons cores strength of mock structure with compressive strength obtained from new non-destructive equation ; rebound hammer, ultra-sonic pulse velocity and combined method, it will be analyzed about application of non-destructive equation. The results are following. The new non-destructive equations follow ; (1) $F_c=9.5R{\cdot}N+62.5$ (2) $F_c=243Vp-739$ (3) $F_c=8.1R_o+205.3V_p-802$ where, $F_c$ : Compressive Strength, $R_o$ : Rebound Number. $V_p$ : Ultra-Sonic Pulse Velocity Trough the result of mock structure test, the combined method is superior to rebound method and ultra-sonic pulse velocity method in the estimation of concrete strength. In order to apply the non-destructive equation of concrete strength to the structures, it is necessary that we should be made process study on the non-destructive equation for estimation of concrete strength in the range, time and strength of application under long-term.

The synthesis and characterization of the mononuclear group 13 heterocyclic carboxaldehyde methyldithiocarbazate complexes Me2M[NC5H4CRNNC(S)SCH3] (M=Al, R=H(1); M=Ga, R=H(2); M=Al, R=CH3(3); M-Ga, R=CH3(4); M=In, R=CH3(5)) are described. Compounds 1-5 were prepared by the reaction of MMe3 (M=Al, Ga, In) with 2-formy or 2-acetylpyridine-S-methyldithiocarbazate in toluene. These compounds 1-5 have been characterized by microanalysis, NMR (1H, 13C) spectroscopy, mass spectra, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. X-ray single-crystal diffraction analyses reveal that 4-5 are mononuclear metal compounds with coordination number of 5 and N,N,S coordination mode.
