Significant changes have been made to estimate the punching shear capacity for edge column-slab joints in the latest editions of most current codes. The revised equations account for axial forces as well as moments conveyed to columns from slabs, which have a substantial impact on the punching resistance of such joints. Many key design parameters, such as reinforcement-ratio, concrete strength, size-effect, and critical-section perimeter, were treated differently or even ignored in various code provisions. Consequently, wide ranges of predicted punching shear strength were detected by applying different code formulas. Therefore, it is essential to assess the various current Codes' design-equations. Because of the similarity in estimated outcomes, only the ACI, EC, and SNiP are used in this study to cover a wide range of estimation ranges from highly conservative to unconservative. This paper is devoted to analyzing the techniques in these code provisions, comparing the estimated punching resistance with available experimental data, and finally developing efficient models predicting the punching capacity of edge column-slab connections. 63 samples from past investigations were chosen for validation. To appropriately predict the punching shear, newly updated equations for ACI and SNiP are provided based on nonlinear regression analysis. The proposed equations'results match the experimental data quite well.

An iterative numerical computational algorithm is presented to design a plate or shell element subjected to membrance and flexural forces. Based on equilibrium consideration, equation for capacity of top and bottom reinforcements in two orthogonal directions have been derived. The amount of reinforcement is determined locally, I. e., for each integration point, from the equilibrium between applied and internal forces. Three cases of design are performed for slab element (used by Marti(1987)) and shell element (used by Kirscher and Collins(1986), by Polak and Vecchio(1993)) to verify the adequacy of the present design method for reinforced concrete shells. Based on nonlinear analyses performed, the analytically calculated ultimate load exceeded the design ultimate load. This shows the adequacy of the design method present in this study at least for slab and shell element case studied. To generalize the conclusion more design-analyses should be performed with different shell configurations.

In this paper, Reinforced concrete (R/C) and R/C+steel plate concrete slab was carried out by SAP2000 software program in order to compare the stability of the multi-functional fishway, that is Bonggok fishway, built at Bonggok river recently in Gumi city, when the size of underground passage is $1m{\times}0.2m$, $1m{\times}0.4m$, $1m{\times}0.6m$ and the velocity is 0.8m/s, 1.2m/s, 1.6m/s respectively for the S2 (R/C+S/C). The analysis shows the maximum stress of S2 decreases less 26~50% than that of Bonggok, bending moment of sidewall decreases less 28~54%, maximum stress of side wall decreases less 17~31%, bending moment of upper slab decreases less 24~47%, maximum stress of upper slab decreases less 4~20%, and bending moment decreases less 10~27% than that of Bonggok. The complementation is required as much as the following percent; 27% and 25% for the maximum stress and bending moment of underground passage, 15% and 24% for the side wall maximum stress and bending moment, and 10% and 14% for the upper slab maximum stress and bending moment, respectively. This result shows that the S2 is greatly superior to that of the Bonggok fishway, and underground passage size of $1m{\times}0.4m$ is superior to that of $1m{\times}0.2m$ or $1m{\times}0.6m$, and R/C+S/C slab is superior to that of R/C slab. This result is expected to be the basic data for the construction and design of the multi-functional fishway.

An experimental investigation was conducted to study the behavior of RC wide beam-column joints with slab subjected to reversed cyclic loads under constant axial load. Six half scale interior wide beam-column assemblies representing a portion of a frame subjected to simulated seismic loading were tested, including three specimens without slab and three specimens with slab. The primary variables were the ratio of column-to-beam flexural capacity ($M_r={\Sigma}M_c/{\Sigma}M_b$ ; 0.77~2.26), ratio of the column-to-beam width (b/H ; 1.54, 1.67). Test results are shown that (1) the current design code and practice for interior joints(type 2) are apply to the wide beam-high strength concrete column. (2) the presence of a slab have an effect on the performance of the wide beam-high strength concrete column interior joints(type 2). therefore in the design of the wide beam-high strength concrete column interior joints(type 2), the width of slab effective as a T beam flange should be considered. It was show that the case of the ratio of column-to-beam flexural capacity is more than 2.0, the effective width of slab are 2 times of an effective depth of wide beam, however if the ratio of column-to-beam flexural capacity is 1.4~2.0, the effective width of slab are not able to be considered.

A post-tensioned reinforced concrete slab bridge is analyzed by specially orthotropic laminate theory. Symmetrically reinforced slab with tension and compression steel is considered for convenience of analysis. Each longitudinal and transverse steel layer is regarded as a lamina, and material constants of each lamina is calculated by the use of the rule of mixture. This bridge is under uniformly distributed vertical loads, and axial loads and end moments due to post-tensioning. In this paper, finite difference method is used for numerical analysis of this bridge. Theory and analysis method of specially orthotropic laminate plates used in this paper can be used for design of new bridges, and maintenance and repair of old bridges.

The seismic behaviors of steel moment connections with different structural characteristics are investigated. The rupture index, which represents the fracture potential, is adopted to study the effect of concrete slab and the relative strength between the coin the beam, and Panel zone on the ductility of connections. The results show that the presence of slab increases the beam strength, imposes constraint near the beam top flange, and consequently, induces concentrated deformation near the beam access hall, which reduces the ductility of the connection. The total deformation capacity of the connection depends not only on the beam but also on the column and panel zone. Therefore, the detrimental slab effects and the relative strength should be considered in the seismic design of the connection.

The flat slab is well-known as a structural system to reduce the story height, so it is broadly used for recent building. However, the normal RC flat slab is not appropriate for the long span, and the quantity of reinforcement bar and concrete is raised. Recently, the post-tensioning system has been introduced and used widely as an alternative method. Nevertheless, in Korea, it is not used broadly due to lack of the understanding and field experience. Especially, the post-tensioning system is hesitated to use due to uncertainty of construction ability and economics. This paper will introduce applicability to site and economics of unbonded post-tensioning system through construction examples.

Slab guideway, surface treatment, heat line installation, and joint connection for Automated Guideway Transit with rubber tire are researched. While the AGT with rubber tire is constructed in city, the precast slab guideway must be considered a reduction of the construction period and the noise under construction. which related with environment. To do that, a basic design and the structural analysis for the precast slab guideway with rubber tire are studied. The surface treatment and the heat line installation of that are also compared with currently used methods. Tining method is applied to the surface treatment adopted from the concrete pavement application currently in use. The connection method between the slab of bridge and precast guideway are suggested with a bolt type and a bond type. To minimize noise and vibration of the connection while the AGT is in driving, the slop connection method can be enhanced the serviceability.

An experimental investigation was conducted to study the behavior of high-strength RC wide beam-column joints with slab subjected to reversed cyclic loads under constant axial load. Six half scale interior wide beam-column assemblies representing a portion of a frame subjected to simulated seismic loading were tested, including three specimens without slab and three specimens with slab. The primary variables were compressive strength of concrete($f_ck$=285, 460kgf/$cm^2$), the ratio of the column-to-beam flexural capacity($M_r$=$\Sigma M_c / \Sigma M_b$ ; 0.77 -2.26), extended length of the column concrete($l_d$ ; 0, 12.5, 30cm), ratio of the column-to-beam width(b/H ; 1.54, 1.67). Test results are shown that (1) the behavior of specimen using high-strength concrete satisfied for required minimum ductile capacity according to increase the compressive strength, (2) the current design code and practice for interior joints(type 2) are apply to the wide beam-high strength concrete column.

Extraordinary displacement and vibration by heavy vehicle causes passengers to feel mental uncomfortableness and bridge to be damaged. To increase serviceability, the research on the human influence for vibration to happen at the bridge has been performed for a long time in oversea but it does not draw concern relatively in the domestic. The purpose of this research is to develop an evaluation method for vibration serviceability of continuous slab bridge. This research is focused on establishing theoretical method to assess vibration serviceability of bridge considering natural frequency, displacement, and acceleration since the criteria for the human responses to vibration is generally based on frequency band. By examining the characteristics of vibration serviceability which has been assessed with human response curve through field experiments as well as analytical study, the evaluation method of vibration serviceability for continuous slab bridges is proposed. Based on applications to the example of continuous slab bridge, the simple evaluation of vibration serviceability in the paper may be used in the initial step of design practice.
