The RC buildings which are constructed on the seaside are followed by KBC(2016) to achieve the minimization of durability damage. To control the corrosion of the reinforced steel bar by salt attack, W/C should be under 0.4 and specified concrete strength is more than 35MPa in the concrete/building construction standard specification. Ready mixed concretes which have usually include the admixtures in Busan were tested to certify the salt attack durability. In the same specified concrete strength, remarkable salt attack durability was evaluated in comparison to OPC.

A new approach for nonlinear finite element analysis of corroded reinforcements in RC structures is elaborated in the article. An algorithmic procedure for producing the tension-stiffening curve of RC elements taking into consideration most of effective parameters, e.g.: the rate of steel bar corrosion, bond-slip behavior, concrete cover and amount of reinforcement, is illustrated. This has been established on both experimental and analytical bases. This algorithm is implemented into a nonlinear finite element analysis program. The abilities of the resulted program have been studied by modeling some experimental specimens showing a reasonable agreement between the analytical and experimental findings.

This paper presnets the tensile behavior of 8 high performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (HPFRCCs) members, each reinforced with one deformed bar 16mm in diameter. The variables included HPFRCC(Ductal, steel cord and polyethylene hybrid fiber, PE fiber) versus normal concrete. Fibers used in HPFRCC significantly increased tensile strength, ductility, and tension stiffening of cementitious materials. For HPFRCC, after first cracking, tensile load continue to rise without fracture localization. Sequentially developed parallel cracks contributed to the inelastic strain at increasing stress level. After yielding of the reinforcing bars, HPFRCC showed increases in loads with increasing strains.

In this study, a moment resisting precast concrete beam-column connection is proposed. An experimental study was carried out to investigate the connection behavior subjected to cyclic loading. Three precast beam-column interior connections and one monolithic connection were tested. Variable included the detailing used at the joint to achieve structural constructability and the location of mild steel reinforcement and high strength bar. During specimen fabrication, the joint details enables ease and speed of construction. Connection performance is evaluated on the basis of ductility, energy dissipation capacity, connection strength, and drift capacity. Based on test results, the precast concrete beam-column connection is capable of matching or exceeding the performance of the monolithic connection.

This study aimed at analyzing the trend of carbon dioxide emission for direct and indirect areas by using inter industry relations table between 2000, 2003 and 2005 in the key building materials and components. Results of this study are as follows; First, the material and components for this study was selected in 20 industries of products such as sand, gravel, cement, concrete articles, rebar, and steel bar. Second, among the 20 selected key building materials, the group with the highest carbon-dioxide emission was shown in ready-mixed concrete, concrete articles, and primary aluminum goods. Third, as a result of analyzing the changes to the units of carbon dioxide emission according to passage of time, the number of items which is changed in such as sustained increase or decrease over time was insignificant in carbon-emission change trend.

In order to perform the group control of motor drive systems in such as steel process line, high performance communication system is indispensible. In this paper, we introduce newly developed communication system which is suitable for these group control application. Using HDLC protocol, this system can transfer data to a long distance(up to 1km) at high speed(1Mbps) with reliability and efficiency. The performance of this communication system was proven through the application to the group control of DAEKYOUNG Bar Mill Line.

방진고무는 진동을 방지하여 다른 구조물의 진동전달 차단은 물론, 장비의 수명연장 및 효율을 증가시키기 위한 목적으로 사용되는데 이러한 방진고무 의 동적특성을 일반화하는 것은 어렵기 때문에 방진고무 시편의 동특성 해 석시험 결과치를 기준으로 원하는 성능에 부합하도록 방진고무의 재질을 선 정하고 사양에 의한 엔진마운트를 설계 제작하여야 한다. 이번에 제작한 UEM 엔진마운트는 해상용, 육상용 설비에 적용 가능하며, 특히 해상용에 적 용하고 외부 환경에 의한 부식으로부터 방진고무 및 기자재를 보호하기 위 하여 하우징을 특수재질로 제작하였고, 수직.수평력을 고려하여 큰 하중에 견딜 수 있도록 원추형 형상설계와 강성을 보강하였다. 특히, 원추형 형상으 로 제작하여 하중을 일정하게 분산시키고, 사용 가능한 선형영역을 확대 시 켰으며, Buffer(Steel Bar)를 이용하여 높은 파고 등에 의한 외부 충격량에 따른 큰 변위의 발생으로부터 설비를 보호할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 물리적 특성이 같은 방진고무를 사용하고, 적층 수만 다르도록 두가지 모델 UEM-155와 UEM-255를 설계 제작하여 수직.수평방향의 정적시험, 동적시 험, 현장 장착시험 등을 수행함으로써 기업에서 요구한 사양에 적합한가를 고찰하였다.

Structural strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams is becoming essential to meet the up-gradation of existing structures due to the infrastructure development. Strengthening is also essential for damaged structural element due to the adverse environmental condition and other distressing factors. This article reviews the state of the field on repair, retrofitting and rehabilitation techniques for the strengthening of RC beams. Strengthening of RC beams using various promising techniques such as externally bonded steel plates, concrete jacketing, fibre reinforced laminates or sheets, external prestressing/external bar reinforcement technique and ultra-high performance concrete overlay have been extensively investigated for the past four decades. The primary objective of this article is to discuss investigations on various strengthening techniques over the years. Various parameters that have been discussed include the flexural capacity, shear strength, failure modes of various strengthening techniques and advances in techniques over the years. Firstly, background information on strengthening, including repair, retrofitting, and rehabilitation of RC beams is provided. Secondly, the existing strengthening techniques for reinforced concrete beams are discussed. Finally, the relative comparisons and limitations in the existing techniques are presented.

Pectus excavatum (PE) is known as one of the most common congenital deformities of the anterior chest wall. The Nuss procedure is an effective surgical therapy to correct PE. Here, we report a case of recurrent cardiac tamponade due to hemopericardium that occurred after 16 months following the Nuss procedure. The cause of recurrent hemopericardium was thought to be local, repetitive irritation of the pericardium by the Nuss steel bar. We should keep in mind that this serious complication can occur after the Nuss procedure, even in the late phase.

Seismic safety is considered to be one of the key design objectives of AP1000 nuclear power plant (NPP) in strong earthquakes. Dynamic behavior, damage development and aggravation effect are studied in this study for the three main components of AP1000 NPP, namely reinforced concrete shield building (RCSB), steel vessel containment (SVC) and reinforced concrete auxiliary building (RCAB). Characteristics including nonlinear concrete tension and compressive constitutions with plastic damage are employed to establish the numerical model, which is further validated by existing studies. The author investigates three earthquakes and eight input levels with the maximum magnitude of 2.4 g and the results show that the concrete material of both RCSB and RCAB have suffered serious damage in intense earthquakes. Considering RCAB in the whole NPP, significant damage aggravation effect can be detected, which is mainly concentrated at the upper intersection between RCSB and RCAB. SVC and reinforcing bar demonstrate excellent seismic performance with no obvious damage.
