Recently, research of reinforcement mechanism in a sense of soil mechanics has been under way by many researchers with developing various kinds of geoteutiles. But it must be consider that reinforcement effect largely depends on used geotextile even if it is used on same in-site condition. As a matter of fact it is not necessarily that reinforcement effect appears in all the case of reinforced soil construction. It means that appropriate geotextile coincided with the intention has to be selected and adequate examination is needed. In this study, reinforcement effect with various kinds of geotextiles are compared through a series of direct shear tests. Based on the test results, shear strength characteristics and reinforced effects are investigated quantitatively and qualitatively considering the confining stress, reinforcement characteristics and number of reinforcement.

In this study, optimal design of reinforced concrete piers under seismic load is numerically investigated. Object function is the area of the concreate-section. Design variables are the total area of reinforcement and concrete-section dimension(Circular section diameter). Constraints of the design strength of the column, longitudinal reinforcement ratio and lower and upper bounds on the design variables are imposed. The reinforcement concrete column is analysed and designed by the Ultimated Strength Design method and load combination involving dead, live, wind and seismic load is used. For numerical optimization, ADS(Garret N, Vanderplaats_ routine is used. From the result of numerical examples, the concrete-section dimension was reduced, but longitudinal reinforcement was not changed. The results show that confinement reinforcement was reduced and confinement reinforcement spacing is increased. The higher strength of reinforcement used, the more concrete-section area was reduced.

Conventional confinement reinforcement for rectangular columns consist of closely spaced perimeter hoops, overlapping hoops, and crossties. One of the potential alternatives to conventional reinforcement is a welded reinforcement grid, prefabricated to required size and volumetric ratio of transverse reinforcement. An experimental investigation was carried out to investigate the strength and deformability of reinforced concrete columns confined with welded reinforcement grids. The comparisons of the envelopes of experimental force-displacement hysteric relationships for columns confined by welded grids with analytically generated force-displacement curves for columns confined with conventional ties. In general, inelastic deformability beyond the peak, as indicate by the slope of the cuvers, was similar to those indicated by columns with conventional ties. The superior performance of columns with welded grids may be attributed to the improved confinement characteristics of grids associated with increased rigidity of welded ties.

In this study, load transfer tests based on KCI-PS101 were conducted to verify the performance of spiral anchorage zone reinforcement for banded post-tensioning (PT) monostrands. With results, the compressive strength of spiral reinforcement was increased by about 20% than that of specimens with two horizontal steel bars and 8% than that of U-shaped bars. Advanced spiral reinforcement for corner increases compressive strength and can resist the spalling forces or fall-out effect at the corner by shear. The ratio of maximum load to amount of steel of the spiral reinforcement is about twice than that of U-shaped reinforcement. With increase of compressive strength capacity and improvement of constructability, the spiral reinforcement is considered to have advantages of promoting the performance of PT anchorage zone compared to conventional methods.

지진다발 지역에서는 철근콘크리트 기둥의 단면을 합리적으로 구속함과 동시에 횡보강 띠철근의 세심한 배근등이 요구된다. 이러한 요구조건을 만족시키기 위한 보편적인 횡보강근 사용의 문제점으로는 높은 체적비(high volumetric ratio), 조밀한 간격(close spacings), 겹침(overlapping of hoops), 구부림(bends), 구부림 연장 (bend extensions), 시공상의 어려움과 콘크리트 타설상의 문제 등이다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 한 방법으로는 요구되는 횡보강근의 체적비, 배역, 크기 등에 따라 이를 기조립, 용접하여 사용하는 것이다. 용접된 횡보강근의 사용은 겹침과 구부림, 구부림의 연장 등이 필요하지 않기 때문에 조립이 간편하고, 축방향 철근의 지지에 적합한 치수의 정확성과 재료를 절감시킬 수 있다. 더우기, 단면 내 횡보강 철근의 간격이 조밀해짐으로써, 코아 콘크리트 주변의 구속력을 균등히 분배시키게 되고, 이에 따라 코아 콘크리트의 거동을 향상시키는 결과를 얻을 수가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 이러한 용접 띠철근으로 보강된 철근콘크리트 기둥의 역학적 거동을 실험적으로 규명함과 동시에 철근콘크리트 기둥의 내진성능 향상을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 그 결과 횡보강근의 강도와 연성에 영향을 미치지 않도록 용접됨과 동시에 충분한 신률을 가진다면, 용접된 격자형 횡보강근은 기둥의 띠철근으로써 사용가능한 것으로 판단된다. 특히, 용접된 격자형 횡보강근이 유효하게 거동하기 위하여는 1) 용접된 접합부위의 강도가 보강근의 모재강도 이상 2) 신률이 4% 이상이어야 할 필요가 있다.

The main objective of this research is to examine the behavior of high-strength concrete(HSC) columns. Eight test columns in one-third scale were tested under the conditions of cyclic lateral force and a constant axial load equal to 30% of the column axial load capacity. The $200{\times}200mm$ square columns were reinforced with eight DB bars constituting a longitudinal steel ratio of 2.54% of the column cross-sectional area. The main experimental parameters were volumetric ratio of transverse reinforcement(${\rho}_s$=1.58, 2.25 percent), tie configuration(Type H, Type C, Type D) and tie yield strength($f_{yh}$=548.8 and 779.1 MPa). It was found that the hysteretic behaviour and ultimate deformability of HSC columns were influenced by the amount and details of transverse reinforcement in the potential plastic hinge regions. Columns of transverse reinforcement in the amount 42 percent higher than that required by seismic provisions of ACI 318-02 showed ductile behavior. At 30% of the axial load capacity, it is recommended that the yield strength of transverse reinforcement be held equal to or below 548.8 MPa. Correlations between the calculated damage index and the damage progress are proposed.

Plate anchors are generally used for structures like transmission towers, mooring systems etc. where the uplift and lateral forces are expected to be predominant. The capacity of anchor plate can be increased by the use of geosynthetics without altering the size of plates. Numerical simulations have been carried out on three different sizes of square anchor plates. A single layer geosynthetic has been used as reinforcement in the analysis and placed at three different positions from the plate. The effects of various parameters like embedment ratio, position of reinforcement, width of reinforcement, frequency and loading amplitude on the pull out capacity have been presented in this study. The load-displacement behaviour of anchors for various embedment ratios with and without reinforcement has been also observed. The pull out load, corresponding to a displacement equal to each of the considered maximum amplitudes of a given frequency, has been expressed in terms of a dimensionless breakout factor. The pull out load for all anchors has been found to increase by more than 100% with embedment ratio varying from 1 to 6. Finally a semi empirical formulation for breakout factor for square anchors in reinforced soil has also been proposed by carrying out regression analysis on the data obtained from numerical simulations.

With the recent increase in gas energy use, risk management for explosion accidents has been emphasized. Protective walls can be used to reduce damage from explosions. The KOSHA GUIDE D-65-2018 suggests the minimum thickness and height of protective walls, minimum reinforcement diameter, and maximum spacing of reinforcements for the structural safety of the protective walls. However, no related evidence has been presented. In this study, the blast load carrying capacity of the protective wall was analyzed by the pressure-impulse diagrams while changing the yield strength of the reinforcement, concrete compressive strength, reinforcement ratio, protective wall height, and thickness, to check the adequacy of the KOSHA GUIDE. Results show that failure may occur even with design based on the criteria presented by KOSHA GUIDE. In order to achieve structural safety of protective walls, additional criteria for minimum reinforcement yield strength and maximum height of protective wall are suggested for inclusion in KOSHA GUIDE. Moreover, the existing value for minimum reinforcement ratio and the thickness of the protective wall should be increased.

본 연구에서는 전단스팬비가 작은 철근콘크리트부재를 대상으로, 기존에 주로 실험치에만 의존하여 제안되었던 전단내력식에서 탈피하여 극한해석법중의 하계정리를 이용하여 이론적으로 제안하였다. 본연구에서 제안한 모델에서는 아치기구와 트러스기구를 동시에 고려할 수가 있고 각각의 기구에서 분담하은 힘의 크기를 알 수 있다. 또한, 외부에서 가해진 힘이 어떻게 지검에 전달되고 있는가 시각적으로 이해할 수가 있으며, 전단스팬비(a/b), 전단보강근비, 인장철근비 등의 영향을 정량적으로 고려할 수가 있다. 본 연구에서 유도한 전단내력식을 기존의 실험치와 비교한 결과, 본 연구에서 제안한 식은 실험치와 대체로 일치하며, 다른 연구자에 의해 제안된 전단내력평가식에 손색이 없음을 알았다.

The seismic vulnerability analysis of multi-span bridges can be based on the response of the piers, provided that deck, bearings and foundations remain elastic. The lateral response of an RC bridge pier can be affected by different mechanisms (i.e., flexure, shear, lap-splice or buckling of the longitudinal reinforcement bars, second order effects). In the literature, simplified formulations are available for mechanisms different from the flexure. On the other hand, the flexural response is usually calculated with a numerically-based Moment-Curvature diagram of the base section and equivalent plastic hinge length. The goal of this paper is to propose a simplified analytical solution to obtain the Moment-Curvature relationship for hollow circular RC sections. This based on calibrated polynomials, fitted against a database comprising 720 numerical Moment-Curvature analyses. The section capacity curve is defined through the position of 6 characteristic points and they are based on four input parameters: void ratio of the hollow section, axial force ratio, longitudinal reinforcement ratio, transversal reinforcement ratio. A case study RC bridge pier is assessed with the proposed solution and the results are compared to a refined numerical FEM analysis, showing good match.
