Recently, many researches for high-strength and high-durability concrete structure have remarkably been studied by adopting new construction material, fiber reinforced polymer (FRP). In connection with these research trend, the shearing capacity of concrete beams reinforced by GFRP stirrup which is developed in this study was evaluated. Experimental variables are span to depth ratio and spacing of shear reinforcement for test. In the result of test, the crack pattern, failure mode and shear load between shear steel reinforcement specimen and GFRP stirrup reinforcement specimen showed similar structural tendency. Therefore, it was investigated that the adaptability of shear-reinforced concrete structure with GFRP stirrup will be improved with further researches of shear design variables.

This study is performed for investigating the effects of stripping and counter punching force on shearing characteristics in fine blanking, such as camber, burr-height and dimensional accuracy, etc by experiments. Conventional hydraulic press equipped with specially designed hydraulic unit is used for experiments so that both the stripping force and counter punching force are arbitrarily adjusted according to experimental conditions. Two kinds of materials, hot rolled steel sheet(1mm, 3mm) and pure aluminum(1mm, 3mm) are selected in order to examine the influence of strength and thickness of working materials in blanking of T-shaped products. Based on the experimental results of this study, it can be concluded that the finely cut surface of sheared blank can be obtained even in conventional hydraulic press if additional equipments and special dies are employed.

The authors have developed a calculating method of propeller shaft alignment by the finite element method. The propeller shaft is divided into finite elements which can be treated as uniform section bars. For each element, the nodal point equation is derived from the stiffness matrix, the external force vector and the section force vector. Then the overall nodal point equation is derived from the element nodal point equation. The deflection, offset, bending moment and shearing force of each nodal point are calculated from the overall nodal point equation by the digital computer. Reactions and deflections of supporting points of straight shaft are calculated and also the reaction influence number is derived. With the reaction influence number the optimum alignment condition that satisfies all conditions is calculated by the simplex method of linear programming. All results of calculation are compared with those of Det norske Veritas, which has developed a computor program based on the three-moment theorem of the strength of materials. The authors finite element method has shown good results and will be used effectively to design the propeller shaft alignment.

This study is dealt with the experimental seam strength of deep corrugated steel plate which is used as underpasses, storm sewers and other buried applications. The soil-metal structure using deep corrugated plate should be sufficient to ensure safety for compressive loading. The experimental and theoretical results on the seam strength are accumulated enough to take the design guideline, even if the seam strength at the bolt connected lap joint in construction site can be varied depending on the connection detailing and the thickness of plate. In this study, compressive behavior of bolted lap jointed plates using various connection detail such as gasket, slot hole, washer was experimentally analyzed. From the test, failure pattern with an increases in the thickness of specimens was changed from plate bearing to bolt shearing. In case of thicker plates than 6.0mm, the structural performance of lap joint using gasket and slot hole is more effective than it of the plate adopted washer.

In this paper, by using steel fiber, polypropylene fiber and these two hybrid fibers, the fire resistance performance and explosive properties of High Strength Concrete (HSC) with specified compressive strength of 40MPa are discussed. The paper also examines the bending resistance of the beam and the shearing resistance properties of non-reinforced HSC beam. This research helps to clarify the fire resistance of fiber HSC and its anti-explosion methods. The test results show that crack generation, explosion and carbonization can be effectively restrained when HSC is mixed with hybrid fibers under high temperature; furthermore, the maximum internal force and ductility are increased and the initial cracking can be restrained in the mechanical test.

This research proposes a direct shear test method to evaluate the behavior of the soil-grout interface. The proposed test method was employed to conduct direct shear tests on two types of specimens: residual soil and residual soil-grout. The evaluation of the shear stress-slip curve indicated that the residual shear strength of residual soil-grout was similar to that of residual soil. It was further confirmed that residual soil determines the behavior of the critical state of the residual soil-grout interface. However, a remarkable increase in the maximum shear strength at the residual soil-grout interface was observed. The increase rate of the maximum shear strength was higher in loose soil due to the increased thickness of the interface layer where residual soil particles and grout particles are mixed.

Tilapia cultured in fresh water were acclimated in sea water with daily increase of $5%_{\circ}$ of salinity and it was completely terminated at the 7th day (0 week). Each three tilapia acclimated were examined weekly based from 0 week to elucidate changes of chloride cells in gill, mineral contents and physical properties in muscle and biochemical characteristics in myofibrils. Chloride cells existed in gills were gradually developed in number and size by acclimation to sea water and became to almost constant state at the third week. Shearing value, compressing strength and content of minerals such as Mg, Na and K in muscle were showed remarkable increase by acclimation to sea water in comparison to those of muscle from tilapia reared in fresh water. Myofibrillar $Mg^{2+}-,\;Ca^{2+}-$ and $K^+(EDTA)-ATPase$ activities of tilapia acclimated in sea water also increased showing significant statistic difference (p<0.01) from those of tilapia reared in fresh water However. thermostability of myofibrils was dropped by acclimation to sea water. The increase of shearing value and compressing strength in the muscle of tilapia by acclimation to sea water would be attributed to the increase of myofibrillar ATPase activities which act to accelerate the decomposition rate of ATP. Therefore, it is suggested that this phenomenon associated with muscle contraction could be brought an improvement of texture of tilapia acclimated in sea water.

This study shows the weathering characteristics of mica-schist affected by faulting and metamorphism through laboratory tests. Frozen-thaw test, which simulate the physical-chemical weathering processes in the laboratory, shows the important influence of foliation developed in mica-schist, resulting in $20{\sim}40%$ reduction of UCS according to weathering grade of rock. Slaking durability test was carried out for different weathering grade rock specimens and indicated that the specimens from fault area had a low durability index compared to other relatively fresh samples. XRD analysis allowed to estimate the dynamic evolution of mineral composition through wet-dry cycle in which the chlorite was the most important mineral leached out during slaking test. The creep test indicated that the main deformation produced along the foliation plane. The compacted clay minerals between discontinuity planes influence on the discontinuity shearing properties and result in a big difference between peak shear strength and residual strength. The results of laboratory tests on mica-schist show the possibility of a important deformation along the foliation plane or discontinuity.

The objective of this work is to examine anatomical and physical characteristics of wood damaged by pine needle gall midge(PNGM, Thecodiplosis japonensis Uchida et Inouye) in Pinus densiflora. In anatomical characteristics, it was noted that the number of axial and radial resin canals in the damaged wood was higher than that in sound wood. In damaged wood, green moisture content of sapwood and swelling and shrinkage was higher than sound wood. Both longitudinal compressive strength and bending strength of the damaged wood were lower than those of sound wood. On the other hand, shearing strength of damaged wood was similar to that of sound wood.
