In this study, effective compressive strength and nodal zone of Strut-and-Tie Model are studied to propose a new design method for RC T-type pier coping for prevention of sudden brittle failure. The coping which transmits loads of bridge to pier should be properly designed to retain ductile behavior. In order to carry out this proper design using STM, tie must yield before concrete fails, and a stress at strut should not exceed a certain effective stress. Therefore, reasonable determination of the effective compressive strength of strut by considering stress states at the nodal zone exactly is very important. Since conventional STM is applied under assumption that all nodes are under hydrostatic stress state, actual non-hydrostatic stress state in nodal zone caused by geometrical characteristics, loading conditions, support conditions of structures can not be considered properly. In order to apply STM for design of RC T-type pier coping, the non-hydrostatic stress state of nodal zone is considered and effective compressive strength is proposed. Then, a new design method of RC T-type pier coping which applies the principle of superposition to obtain optimum ductile behavior is rationally designed.

The primary objective of this study was to identify concrete contribution to the initial shear strength of reinforced concrete (RC) hollow columns under lateral loading. Seven large-scale RC rectangular hollow column specimens were tested under monotonic or cyclic lateral loads. The most important design parameter was column length-to-depth aspect ratio ranging between 1.5 and 3.0, and the other test variables included web area ratio, hollow section ratio, and loading history. The tests showed that the initial shear strength reduced in a linear pattern as the column aspect ratio increased, and one specimen tested under cyclic loading achieved approximately 83% of the shear strength of the companion specimen under monotonic loading. Also, several pioneering shear models proposed around the world, all of which were mainly based on tests for columns with solid sections, were reviewed and compared with the test results of this study, for their possible applications to columns with hollow sections. After all, an empirical equation was proposed for concrete contribution to the initial shear strength of RC hollow columns based on fundamental mechanics and the test results.

In this study, the effects of initial damage of concrete columns on the post-repair performance of reinforced concrete (RC) columns strengthened with carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite are investigated experimentally. Four kinds of compression-damaged RC cylinders were reinforced using external CFRP composite wraps, and the stress-strain behavior of the composite/concrete system was investigated. These concrete cylinders were compressed to four pre-damaged states including low -level, medium -level, high -level and total damage states. The percentages of the stress levels of pre-damage were, respectively, 40, 60, 80, and 100% of that of the control RC cylinder. These damaged concrete cylinders simulate bridge piers or building columns subjected to different magnitudes of stress, or at various stages in long-term behavior. Experimental data, as well as a stress-strain model proposed for the behavior of damaged and undamaged concrete strengthened by external CFRP composite sheets are presented. The experimental data shows that external confinement of concrete by CFRP composite wrap significantly improves both compressive strength and ductility of concrete, though the improvement is inversely proportional to the initial degree of damage to the concrete. The failure modes of the composite/damaged concrete systems were examined to evaluate the benefit of this reinforcing methodology. Results predicted by the model showed very good agreement with those of the current experimental program.

본 연구에서는 지진하중을 받는 철근콘크리트 교각의 지진성능 및 파괴모드에 전단이 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 전단-축력간의 상호거동 이력응답 모델의 검증을 위하여 철근콘크리트 기둥 실험에 대한 비교해석을 수행하였다. 비교결과, 예측된 해석치는 전단에 관한 하중-변위 이력응답에 있어서 실험결과와 좋은 상관관계를 보여주었다. 아울러, 본 연구에서 개발된 모델을 이용하여 고베 지진에 의해서 손상된 철근콘크리트 교량의 비선형 시간이력 해석을 수행하였다. 교각의 변위응답에 관한 분석결과, 축력의 변화를 고려한 전단의 영향으로 인하여 최대변위가 상당히 증가하였고, 전반적인 교각 강성의 감소와 함께 진동주기의 증가를 유발한다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 전단과 축력의 영향을 동시에 고려한 응답에 철근콘크리트 교각의 지진손상 평가에 관해서 보다 나은 설명을 제공할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Bridge columns are subjected to combined actions of axial force, shear force and bending moment during earthquakes, caused by spatially-complex earthquake motions, features of structural configurations and the interaction between input and response characteristics. Combined actions can have significant effects on the force and deformation capacity of RC columns, resulting in unexpected large deformations and extensive damage that in turn influences the performance of bridges as vital components of transportation systems. This paper evaluates the seismic response of three prototype reinforced concrete bridges using comprehensive numerical models that are capable of simulating the complex soil-structural interaction effects and nonlinear behavior of columns. An analytical approach that can capture the shear-flexural interacting behavior is developed to model the realistic nonlinear behavior of RC columns, including the pinching behavior, strength deterioration and stiffness softening due to combined actions of shear force, axial force and bending moment. Seismic response analyses were conducted on the prototype bridges under suites of ground motions. Response quantities of bridges (e.g., drift, acceleration, section force and section moment etc.) are compared and evaluated to identify the effects of vertical motion, structural characteristics and the shear-flexural interaction on seismic demand of bridges.

The collapses of curved bridges are mainly caused by the damaged columns, subjected to the combined loadings of axial load, shear force, flexural moment and torsional moment, under earthquakes. However, these combined loadings have not been fully investigated. This paper firstly investigated the mechanical characteristics of the bending-torsion coupling effects, based on the seismic response spectrum analysis of 24 curved bridge models. And then 9 reinforced concrete (RC) and circular column specimens were tested, by changing the bending-tortion ratio (M/T), axial compression ratio, longitudinal reinforcement ratio and spiral reinforcement ratio, respectively. The results show that the bending-torsion coupling effects of piers are more significant, along with the decrease of girder curvature and the increase of pier height. The M/T ratio ranges from 6 to 15 for common cases, and influences the crack distribution, plastic zone and hysteretic curve of piers. And these seismic characteristics are also influenced by the compression ratio, longitudinal reinforcement ratio and spiral reinforcement ratios of piers.

축소모형 팔각형 기둥 실험체 2개를 제작하여 일정한 축력 하에서 반복 횡하중을 가력하는 실험을 수행하였다. 실험체는 중실단면과 중공단면이고 모든 실험체의 횡방향 나선철근 체적비는 0.00206의 값을 갖는다. 실험체들은 휨-전단 파괴거동을 보였다. 본 논문에서는 실험결과에 따른 파괴거동과 내진성능을 분석하였다. 실험결과, 중공 실험체는 초기강성, 초기 균열양상, 에너지 소산능력 등의 구조성능이 중실 실험체와 유사한 거동을 보였으나, 중공 실험체의 경우에는 3% 변위비 이후에 횡력, 극한변위, 에너지소산능력이 현저하게 감소되었다.

국내외 교량의 내진성능 평가관련 연구들을 조사, 분석한 결과 국내에서 휨 거동 교각의 내진성능에 대한 연구는 상당히 이루어졌으나, 국내에 상당수 분포하는 것으로 분석된 휨-전단 교각에 대해서는 연구실적이 부족한 것으로 파악되었다. 따라서, 이 연구에서는 휨-전단 복합거동이 예측되는 형상비 2.67과 전단거동이 예측되는 형상비 2.25의 실물크기 실험체 및 형상비 2.67의 축소모형 실험체를 제작하여 준정적 내진성능 실험을 실시하였으 며, 주철근의 겹침이음과, 형상비 변화에 따른 파괴거동을 조사 및 분석하였다. 실험결과 휨-전단거동이 예상되는 형상비 부근의 교각은 형상비와 철근상세 변화에 따라 파괴거동 특성이 휨-전단 파괴에서 전단 파괴 또는 휨 파괴, 그리고 주철근 부착파괴로 변하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이와 같은 실험결과들로부터 비내진 원형 철근콘크리트 교각에 대한 항복변위 및 극한변위 산정식을 제안하여 실험을 실시하지 않고도 실제 비내진 교각의 내진성능을 파악할 수 있도록 하였으며, 이는 추후 비내진으로 분류되는 실제 교량의 내진성능 조사 및 보수보강에 큰 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.

Bridge columns in strong earthquake area are to be designed and constructed so that enough ductility should be guaranteed. Therefore, large amount of transverse reinforcement is required to confine core concrete of the bridge column by design specifications. In moderate seismicity regions, however, adopting the full ductility design concept sometimes results in construction problems due to reinforcement congestion. For the moderate seismicity regions, a design based on required ductility and required transverse reinforcement might be a reasonable approach. Ductility demand design or performance-based design might be an appropriate approach especially for regions of moderate seismic risk. The procedure and application of this design approach are presented in this paper.
