Since the Gyeongju earthquakes in 2016, there have been increased research interests in the areas of seismic design, building collapse, and rescue radar applications in Korea. Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is a nondestructive electromagnetic method that is used for underground surveys. To properly design ground penetrating radar that detects buried victims precisely, it is important to study electromagnetic wave propagation channel characteristics in advance. This work presents an electromagnetic propagation environment analysis of a trapped victim for GPR applications. In this study, we develop a realistic collapse model composed of layered reinforced concrete and a victim positioned horizontally. In addition, the effects of rebars and the distance between the radar antenna and target are investigated. The numerical analysis presents the electromagnetic wave propagation characteristics, including amplitude loss and phase difference, in the 450-MHz and 1,500-MHz frequency band, and it shows the electric field distribution in the environment.

Recently, epoxy-coated re-bar used to the structure partly and put to practical use step, but not economical and appeared to the defect of deterioration of long term bond strength between concrete. The method for complement the defect of epoxy coated re-bar, study of polymer cement slurry coated re-bar started and basic properties appeared to excellent, but study of bond properties embedded in concrete specimens insufficient until now. This study attempts to examination of using possibility for bond strength of polymer cement slurry coated re-bar between concrete specimens compare to ACI Code and KS Code through pull-out test of 15cm$\times$15cm$\times$15cm specimens with polymer cement slurry coated re-bar as polymer cement ratio 50%, 100%, 150%, coating thickness 250${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, 440${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and curing age. In the results of this study, the bond strength of polymer cement slurry coated re-bar compare to plain re-bar, epoxy coated re-bar decreased St/BA-modified polymer cement slurry coated re-bar, but bond strength of PA-modified polymer cement slurry coated re-bar appeared to excellent results. The bond properties of polymer cement slurry coated re-bar between concrete will be obtain more precise results according to compressive strength change of concrete and re-bar diameter size.

Epoxy-coated re-bar was partly used to the structures and put to practical use, but were not economical and appeared to have defects such as the diminishing of long term bond strength between concrete. The study of polymer cement slurry coated re-bar was started in order to complement the defect of epoxy coated re-bar, and ever since the basic properties appeared to be excellent. But, study of bond properties embedded in concrete specimens was insufficient until now. This study attempts to examine the possibility of improving the bond strength of polymer cement slurry coated re-bar between concrete specimens in accordance with ACI Code and KS Code through pull-out test of 150mm$\times$150mm$\times$150mm substrates with polymer cement slurry coated re-bar having polymer cement ratios of 50%, 75% and 100%, coating thickness 250${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, 450 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and with curing ages of 3, 7 and 28 days. High strength concrete was designed having a compressive strength of 500kgf/cm2 as specified. Practical bond length ranges of 55 and 85mm were applied to each of specimen. The bond strength of polymer cement slurry coated re-bar using St/BA-1 and St/BA-2 was compared to that of plain re-bar. The results of this study showed that the bond strength of 55mm bond length was much higher than that of 85mm bond length.

염화물에 의한 콘크리트 중의 철근부식을 억제하기 위하여 콘크리트 배합시 방청제를 사용하는 방안이 일반적으로 많이 사용되고 있으나. 국내에서는 아직까지 방청제의 방식효과에 대한 연구는 찾아보기 어려운 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 염화물의 영향을 받는 콘크리트 중의 철근부식 억제를 위한 방안으로 방청제를 사용하여 철근의 방청효과를 알아보기 위하여 3종류의 방청제와 각각 사용량을 변화시킨 시험체를 제작하여 부식촉진 실험을 실시하였으며, 철근의 자연전위와 부시면적율을 측정하여 방식효과에 대하여 평가하였다. 그 결과 염화물의 혼입량이 지나치게 많을 경우에는 방청제의 양을 증가시켜도 방청효과가 크게 향상되지 않았으나. 염화물의 혼입량을 동일하게 사용하고 방청제의 양을 증가시켜도 방청효과가 크게 향상되지 않았으나, 염화물의 혼입량을 동일하게 방청제의 양을 증가시킬 경우에는 방청효과가 현저하게 좋아짐을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 RC 구조 슬래브와 SC 구조 전단벽이 만나는 접합부의 거동특성을 파악하고 RC구조 슬래브-SC구조 전단벽 이질접합부의 전단마찰내력을 평가하고 KEPIC SNG의 접합면 소요전단강도 기준의 안전율을 평가하기 위해 실험연구를 수행하였다. 연구결과, 접합면의 전단마찰내력은 약 300kN으로 나타났고, 변위가 증가할수록 철근의 내력분담이 증가하게 되며, 상부철근보다는 하부철근의 전단내력 분담율이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 하부철근을 구성한 경우에는 하부철근이 없는 실험체에 비해 40% 이상 전단내력이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper experimentally investigates the effect of yield strength of reinforcing bars and stirrups on the seismic performance of reinforced concrete (RC) circular piers. Reversed cyclic loading tests of nine-large scale specimens with longitudinal and transverse reinforcement of different yield strengths (varying between HRB335, HRB500E and HRB600 rebars) were conducted. The test parameters include the yield strength and amount of longitudinal and transverse reinforcement. The results indicate that the adoption of high-strength steel (HSS) reinforcement HRB500E and HRB600 (to replace HRB335) as longitudinal bars without reducing the steel area (i.e., equal volume replacement) is found to increase the moment resistance (as expected) and the total deformation capacity while reducing the residual displacement, ductility and energy dissipation capacity to some extent. Higher strength stirrups enhance the ductility and energy dissipation capacity of RC bridge piers. While the product of steel yield strength and reinforcement ratio ($f_y{\rho}_s$) is kept constant (i.e., equal strength replacement), the piers with higher yield strength longitudinal bars are found to achieve as good seismic performance as when lower strength bars are used. When higher yield strength transverse reinforcement is to be used to maintain equal strength, reducing bar diameter is found to be a better approach than increasing the tie spacing.

This study investigates the effects of reinforcing bar diameter and cover depth on the shrinkage behavior of restrained ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) slabs. For this, twelve large-sized UHPFRC slabs with three different rebar diameters ($d_b=9.5$, 15.9, and 22.2 mm) and four different cover depths (h=5, 10, 20, and 30 mm) were fabricated. In addition, a large-sized UHPFRC slab without steel rebar was fabricated for evaluating degree of restraint. Test results revealed that the uses of steel rebar with a large diameter, leading to a larger reinforcement ratio, and a low cover depth are unfavorable regarding the restrained shrinkage performance of UHPFRC slabs, since a larger rebar diameter and a lower cover depth result in a higher degree of restraint. The shrinkage strain near the exposed surface was high because of water evaporation. However, below a depth of 18 mm, the shrinkage strain was seldom influenced by the cover depth; this was because of the very dense microstructure of UHPFRC. Finally, owing to their superior tensile strength, all UHPFRC slabs with steel rebars tested in this study showed no shrinkage cracks until 30 days.

The corrosion of steel in concrete is significant in marine environment. Salt damage is one of the most detrimental causes to concrete bridges and port structures. Especially, the splash and tidal zones around water line are comparatively important in terms of safety and life-time point of view. During the last several decades, cathodic protection (cp) has been commonly accepted as an effective technique for corrosion control in concrete structures. Zn-mesh sacrificial anode has been recently developed and started to apply to the bridge column cp in marine condition. The detailed parameters regarding Zn-mesh cp technique, however, have not well understood so far. This study is to investigate how much Zn-mesh cp influences along the concrete column at elevated temperature. About 100 cm column specimens with eight of 10 cm segment rebars have been used to measure the variation of cp potential with the distance from Zn-mesh anode at both $10^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$ in natural seawater. The cp potential change and current diminishment along the column specimens have been discussed for the optimum design of cp by Zn-mesh sacrificial anode.
