유리섬유를 사용한 섬유강화복합체(Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer, GFRP) 보강근의 인장강도 및 부착성능 등은 철근과 다르기 때문에 GFRP 보강근을 콘크리트 구조물에 적용하기 위해서는 GFRP 보강근으로 보강된 콘크리트 부재의 거동에 관한 연구가 선행되어야 한다. GFRP는 높은 비강도, 경량성, 비부식성 등의 장점을 가지고 있으나 탄성계수가 철근보다 작아 상대적으로 큰 처짐이 발생하는 단점이 있다. 교량 바닥판은 아칭효과 등에 의해 휨성능이 증가하므로 FRP 보강근을 우선 적용할 수 있는 대상 중 하나이다. 본 논문은 국내에서 개발된 철근 대체재용 GFRP 보강근의 콘크리트 구조물로의 적용 가능성을 관찰하기 위한 실험연구에 관한 것으로 폭과 길이가 3,000 mm, 4,000 mm이고 두께가 240 mm인 실제 크기의 콘크리트 바닥판을 제작하여 GFRP 보강근의 보강비에 따른 거동을 관찰하였다. 정적실험을 수행하였으며 DB-24 하중등급의 축하중을 모사한 재하면적을 가진 직사각형 강재로 바닥판이 파괴될 때까지 집중하중을 가하였다. 철근 보강 바닥판과 GFRP 보강 바닥판의 거동차이를 최대성능 및 처짐 거동 등에 대해 비교 검토하였다.

This paper presents experimental results on the residual bond-slip behavior of high strength concrete-filled square steel tube (HSCFST) after elevated temperatures. Three parameters were considered in this test: (a) temperature (i.e., $20^{\circ}C$, $200^{\circ}C$, $400^{\circ}C$, $600^{\circ}C$, $800^{\circ}C$); (b) concrete strength (i.e., C60, C70, C80); (c) anchorage length (i.e., 250 mm, 400 mm). A total of 17 HSCFST specimens were designed for push-out test after elevated temperatures. The load-slip curves at the loading end and free end were obtained, in addition, the distribution of steel tube strain and the bond stress along the anchorage length were analyzed. Test results show that the shape of load-slip curves at loading ends and free ends are similar. With the temperature constantly increasing, the bond strength of HSCFST increases first and then decreases; furthermore, the bond strength of HSCFCT proportionally increases with the anchoring length growing. Additionally, the higher the temperature is, the smaller and lower the bond damage develops. The energy dissipation capacity enhances with the concrete strength rasing, while, decreases with the temperature growing. What is more, the strain and stress of steel tubes are exponentially distributed, and decrease from the free end to loading end. According to experimental findings, constitutive formula of the bond slip of HSCFST experienced elevated temperatures is proposed, which fills well with test data.

For the large deformation of shear walls under vertical and horizontal loads, there are difficulties in obtaining accurate simulation results using the response analysis method, even with fine mesh elements. Furthermore, concrete material nonlinearity, stiffness degradation, concrete cracking and crushing, and steel bar damage may occur during the large deformation of reinforced concrete (RC) shear walls. Matrix operations that are involved in nonlinear analysis using the traditional finite-element method (FEM) may also result in flaws, and may thus lead to serious errors. To solve these problems, a planar four-node element was developed based on vector mechanics. Owing to particle-based formulation along the path element, the method does not require repeated constructions of a global stiffness matrix for the nonlinear behavior of the structure. The nonlinear concrete constitutive model and bilinear steel material model are integrated with the developed element, to ensure that large deformation and damage behavior can be addressed. For verification, simulation analyses were performed to obtain experimental results on an RC shear wall subjected to a monotonically increasing lateral load with a constant vertical load. To appropriately evaluate the parameters, investigations were conducted on the loading speed, meshing dimension, and the damping factor, because vector mechanics is based on the equation of motion. The static problem was then verified to obtain a stable solution by employing a balanced equation of motion. Using the parameters obtained, the simulated pushover response, including the bearing capacity, deformation ability, curvature development, and energy dissipation, were found to be in accordance with the experimental observation. This study demonstrated the potential of the developed planar element for simulating the entire process of large deformation and damage behavior in RC shear walls.

To study the working mechanism and size effect of an innovative dovetail UHPC joint originated from the 5th Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge, a large-scale testing subject to negative bending moment was conducted and compared with the previous scaled specimens. The static responses, i.e., the crack pattern, failure mode, ductility and stiffness degradation were analyzed. It was found that the scaled specimens presented similar working stages and working mechanism with the large-scale ones. However, the post-cracking ductility and relative stiffness degradation all decrease with the enlarged length/scale, apart from the relative stiffness after flexural cracking. The slab stiffness at the flexural cracking stage is 90% of the initial stiffness while only 24% of the initial stiffness reserved in the ultimate stage. Finite element model (FEM) was established and compared with the experiments to verify its effectiveness in exploring the working mechanism of the innovative joint. Based on this effective method, a series of FEMs were established to further study the influence of material strength, pre-stressing level and ratio of reinforcement on its deflection-load relationship. It is found that the ratio of reinforcement can significantly improve its load-carrying capacity among the three major-influenced factors.

The static strength and fatigue crack resistance of the aircraft skin structures depend on the materials used and joint type. Most of the commercial aircraft's skin panel structures are made from aluminium alloy and carbon fibre reinforced epoxy. In this study, the fatigue resistance of four joint configurations (metal/metal, metal/composite, composite/composite and composite/metal) with riveted, adhesive bonded, and hybrid joining techniques are investigated with experiments and finite element analysis. The fatigue tests were tension-tension because of the typical nature of the loads on aircraft skin panels susceptible of experimenting fatigue. Experiment results suggest that the fatigue life of hybrid joints is superior to adhesive bonded joints, and these in turn much better than conventional riveted joints. Thanks to the fact that, for hybrid joints, the adhesive bond provides better load distribution and ensures load-carrying capacity in the event of premature adhesive failure while rivets induce compressive residual stresses in the joint. Results from FE tool ABAQUS analysis for adhesive bonded and hybrid joints agrees with the experiments. From the analysis, the energy release rate for adhesive bonded joints is higher than that of hybrid joints in both opening (mode I) and shear direction (mode II). Most joints show higher energy release rate in mode II. This indicates that the joints experience fatigue crack in the shear direction, which is responsible for crack opening.

FRP재료를 이용한 바닥판은 교량생애주기비용 측면에서 재료가 고강도이고 내구성이 우수하여 유지관리를 최소화하고 교체주기가 길게 되므로 경제성이 우수할 것으로 기대되며, 프리캐스트 부재로 가설되므로 시공성이 우수하다. 본 연구에서는 FRP바닥판 시공시 합리적이며 경제적인 강재거더와의 연결방법을 검토하기 위해 연결볼트를 이용한 7가지 기계적 연결지점 조건에 대한 하중재하실험 및 해석을 수행하였다. 실험결과 향후 FRP바닥판과 강재거더 사이의 전단력에 대해 볼트의 강도가 안전측에 있다면 시공시의 효율성 및 경제성을 고려하여 지그재그 체결을 하여도 구조계는 안전할 것으로 평가되었다.

As a brittle failure mode, punching-shear failure can be widely found in traditional RC slab-column connections, which may lead to the entire collapse of a flat plate structure. In this paper, a novel RC slab-column connection with inner steel truss was proposed to enhance the punching strength. In the proposed connection, steel trusses, each of which was composed of four steel angles and a series of steel strips, were pre-assembled at the periphery of the column capital and behaved as transverse reinforcements. With the aim of exploring the punching behavior of this novel RC slab-column connection, a static punching test was conducted on two full-scaled RC slab specimens, and the crack patterns, failure modes, load-deflection and load-strain responses were thoroughly analyzed to explore the contribution of the applied inner steel trusses to the overall punching behavior. The test results indicated that all the test specimens suffered the typical punching-shear failure, and the higher punching strength and initial stiffness could be found in the specimen with inner steel trusses. The numerical models of tested specimens were analyzed in ABAQUS. These models were verified by comparing the results of the tests with the results of the analyzes, and subsequently the sensitivity of the punching capacity to different parameters was studied. Based on the test results, a modified critical shear crack theory, which could take the contribution of the steel trusses into account, was put forward to predict the punching strength of this novel RC slab-column connection, and the calculated results agreed well with the test results.

마찰말뚝의 경우 연약지반이 깊은 동남아 지역(캄보디아, 미얀마, 베트남 등)의 많은 건설현장에서 시공되고 있으며, 경험적인 측면에서도 마찰말뚝에 대한 시공사례가 많이 축적되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 토사층에서 발휘되는 주면마찰력을 비교분석하기 위하여 미얀마 현장에서 시행된 4개소의 정재하시험과 하중전이시험 결과를 이용하였다. 현장타설말뚝의 정재하시험 및 하중전이시험에서 얻어진 주면마찰력과 해당 위치에서의 각각의 표준관입시험(SPT) N치와의 상관관계식을 제안하였다. 미얀마지역은 토사층의 범위가 폭넓게 분포하여 국내 지반조건과 상이한 특성으로 인해 SPT-N값에 의한 각각의 주면마찰력 산정결과가 달라지는 경향을 나타냈다. 사질토 지반에서는 미얀마 지역의 fs=0.096N, 국내에서의 fs=0.106N으로 유사한 결과를 나타냈으나, 점성토 지반조건에서는는 미얀마 지역의 fs=0.315N, 국내에서의 fs=0.062N으로 미얀마 지역의 주면마찰력이 약 5배 정도 높은 값이 얻어졌다. 본 연구의 비교분석자료는 국내·외의 제한된 Data를 통하여 분석한 결과이므로 향후 보다 많은 하중전이시험 결과가 축적된다면, 현장 토질 특성이 반영된 N치에 따른 주면마찰력 산정식을 제안할 수 있을 것이며, 금회 분석한 결과는 이에 대한 선행연구로서 중요한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The wind design of buildings is typically based on strength provisions under ultimate loads. This is unlike the ductility-based approach used in seismic design, which allows inelastic actions to take place in the structure under extreme seismic events. This research investigates the application of a similar concept in wind engineering. In seismic design, the elastic forces resulting from an extreme event of high return period are reduced by a load reduction factor chosen by the designer and accordingly a certain ductility capacity needs to be achieved by the structure. Two reasons have triggered the investigation of this ductility-based concept under wind loads. Firstly, there is a trend in the design codes to increase the return period used in wind design approaching the large return period used in seismic design. Secondly, the structure always possesses a certain level of ductility that the wind design does not benefit from. Many technical issues arise when applying a ductility-based approach under wind loads. The use of reduced design loads will lead to the design of a more flexible structure with larger natural periods. While this might be beneficial for seismic response, it is not necessarily the case for the wind response, where increasing the flexibility is expected to increase the fluctuating response. This particular issue is examined by considering a case study of a sixty-five-story high-rise building previously tested at the Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel Laboratory at the University of Western Ontario using a pressure model. A three-dimensional finite element model is developed for the building. The wind pressures from the tested rigid model are applied to the finite element model and a time history dynamic analysis is conducted. The time history variation of the straining actions on various structure elements of the building are evaluated and decomposed into mean, background and fluctuating components. A reduction factor is applied to the fluctuating components and a modified time history response of the straining actions is calculated. The building components are redesigned under this set of reduced straining actions and its fundamental period is then evaluated. A new set of loads is calculated based on the modified period and is compared to the set of loads associated with the original structure. This is followed by non-linear static pushover analysis conducted individually on each shear wall module after redesigning these walls. The ductility demand of shear walls with reduced cross sections is assessed to justify the application of the load reduction factor "R".
