The structural deterioration of concrete structures due to reinforcement corrosion is a major worldwide problem. Service life of the age-degraded concrete structures is governed by the protective action provided by the cover concrete against the susceptibility of the reinforcement to the corrosive environment. The corrosion of steel would result in the various corrosion products, which depending on the level of the oxidation may have much greater volume than the original iron that gets consumed by the process of corrosion. This volume expansion would be responsible for exerting the expansive radial pressure at the steel-concrete interface resulting in the development of hoop tensile stresses in the surrounding cover concrete. Once the maximum hoop tensile stress exceeds the tensile strength of the concrete, cracking of cover concrete would take place. The cracking begins at the steel-concrete interface and propagates outwards and eventually resulting in the through cracking of the cover concrete. The cover cracking would indicate the loss of the service life for the corrosion-affected structures. In the present paper, analytical models have been developed considering the residual strength of the cracked concrete and the stiffness provided by the combination of the reinforcement and expansive corrosion products. The problem is modeled as a boundary value problem and the governing equations are expressed in terms of the radial displacement. The analytical solutions are presented considering a simple 2-zone model for the cover concrete viz. cracked or uncracked. A sensitivity analysis has also been carried out to show the influence of the various parameters of the proposed models. The time to cover cracking is found to be function of initial material properties of the cover concrete and reinforcement plus corrosion products combine, type of rust products, rate of corrosion and the residual strength of the cover concrete. The calculated cracking times are correlated against the published experimental and analytical reference data.

이 논문에서는 주철근 단락을 갖는 철근콘크리트 교각의 내진성능평가를 위한 비탄성 해석 기법을 제시하였다. 하중의 단계에 따라 수반하게 되는 콘크리트의 균열 및 철근의 항복, 이로 인한 부착효과와 골재의 맞물림 현상 및 강도의 감소 등과 같은 재료적 비선형성을 고려하였다. 이에 대한 콘크리트의 균열모델로서는 분산균열 모델을 사용하였다. 두께가 서로 다른 부재간의 접합부에서 단면강성이 급변하기 때문에 생기는 국소적인 불연속변형을 고려하기 위한 경계면 요소를 도입하였다. 또한, 횡방향 구속철근으로 인한 강도의 증가 효과를 고려하였다. 이 연구에서는 주철근 단락을 갖는 철근콘크리트 교각의 내진성능평가를 위해 제안한 해석기법을 신뢰성 있는 연구자의 실험결과와 비교하여 그 타당성을 검증하였다.

본 연구는 국내의 초연약지반에 적용 가능한 표층보강재를 이용한 연약지반 표층처리공법을 정립시키기 위한 기초적 연구로서 표층처리공법에 사용되는 보강재의 강성도를 고려한 지 지력산정방법을 제안하는 것을 목적으로 하고 있다. 이를 위하여 직포, 지오그리드, 강봉(대나무 대채재료)을 이용하여 광폭인장시험 및 보강재의 단부 구속조건을 완전구속, 부분구속(3종류)으로 한 21 종류의 실내모형실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과, Terzaghi의 지지력이론식은 직포와 지오그리드와 같은 연성보강재 사용시에는 지지력산정이 적절하나, 대나무 망과 같은 강성도가 큰 재료에 대해서는 강성도를 적절히 표현하지 못하는 것으로 평가되었으며, 초연약지반 표층처리공법의 지지력산정방법을 Terzaghi 지지력이론식을 수정하여 강성도의 영향을 정확히 평가하는 새로운 지지력이론식을 제안하였다.

Following previous work carried out in Building Research Institute in Japan, finite element analyses of conceptual column designs are performed in this paper. The effectiveness of the numerical model is evaluated by experimental tests and parametric studies are conducted to determine influential factors in conceptual column designs. First, three different column designs are analysed: bonded, un-bonded, and un-bonded with additional reinforcing bars. The load-displacement curves and cracking patterns in concrete are obtained and compared with experimental ones. The comparisons indicate that the finite element model is able to reflect the experimental results closely. Both numerical and experimental results show that, the introduction of un-bonded zones in a column end can reduce cracking strains, accordingly reduce the stiffness and strength as well; the addition of extra reinforcement in the un-bonded zones can offset the losses of the stiffness and strength. To decide the proper length of the un-bonded zones and the sufficient amount of the additional reinforcing bars, parametric studies are carried out on their influences. It has been found that the stiffness of un-bonded designs slightly decreases with increasing the length of the un-bonded zones and increases with the size of the additional reinforcing bars.

연결보는 지진하중에 효과적으로 저항하기 위하여 적절한 강도, 강성, 변형능력을 지녀야 한다. 특히 스팬-춤 비가 2.0 이하인 대각선다발철근을 갖는 특수전단벽 연결보는 일반 연결보보다 더 높은 강도, 강성, 연성능력을 갖게 되나 대각선다발철근 상세는 시공에 큰 어려움이 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제에 대한 해결방안의 하나로서 대각선다발철근 상세를 대체하기 위한 대안상세들이 실험적으로 연구되었다. 실험결과, 앵글형태로 보강된 SA실험체가 대각방향 보강근을 완전히 제거한 SB시리즈의 실험체와 비교하여 더 안정된 거동을 보였으며, 기존의 대각선다발철근상세를 갖는 CA실험체와 비교하여 유사한 강도, 강성, 에너지소산능력과 변형능력(drift)을 나타내었다.

본 논문에서는 유한요소해석을 통해 기초지반의 강성과 상재하중이 블록식 보강토 옹벽에 미치는 영향을 고찰한 내용을 다루었다. 이를 위해 기초지반의 강성과 상재하중의 위치를 변화시키며 매개변수 연구를 수행하였으며 해석결과에서는 벽체의 변위와 보강재의 유발인장력은 기초지반의 강성이 감소함에 따라 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 해석결과에 따르면 현재 설계기준에서 적용되고 있는 상재하중 처리 방법은 경우에 따라서 상재하중의 영향을 지나치게 과대평가 하는 것으로 나타났으며 상재하중이 보강영역에 근접하여 작용할 경우 외적안정성 검토시 주의를 요하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 논문에서는 본 연구를 통해 얻어진 결과가 실무적 측면에서 의미하는 바를 심도 있게 고찰하였다.

This paper presents the seismic behaviors and restoring force model of ring beam joints of steel tube-reinforced concrete column structure under cyclic loading. First, the main failure mode, ultimate bearing capacity, stiffness degradation and energy dissipation capacity are studied. Then, the effects of concrete grade, steel grade, reinforcement ratio and radius-to-width ratios are discussed. Finally, the restoring force model is proposed. Results show that the ring beam joints of steel tube-reinforced concrete column structure performs good seismic performances. With concrete grade increasing, the ultimate bearing capacity and energy dissipation capacity increase, while the stiffness degradation rates increases slightly. When the radius-width ratio is 2, with reinforcement ratio increasing, the ultimate bearing capacity decreases. However, when the radius-to-width ratios are 3, with reinforcement ratio increasing, the ultimate bearing capacity increases. With radius-to-width ratios increasing, the ultimate bearing capacity decreases slightly and the stiffness degradation rate increases, but the energy dissipation capacity increases slightly.

The stress intensity factor has been calculated for the cracked plate subjected to remote normal stress and reinforced with a plate by symmetric spot welding. The solution was based on displacement compatibility condition between the cracked sheet and the reinforcement plate. It is shown that the results from the derived equation for stress intensity factor were agreed with previous solutions. The reinforcement effect gets better as a joining spot is closer to the crack tip and the other joining spots become nearer to the crack surface.

Ten beams bonded with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) laminates were tested under cyclic loading with the load range and the FRP reinforcement ratio as test parameters. The maximum load level during cyclic loading was 55%, 65% and 75% of the static flexural strength while the minimum load level was kept constant at 35%. Deflections of the beams at the end of 525000 cycles were found to increase by 16% and 44% when the maximum load level was increased from 55% to 65% and 75% of the static flexural strength, respectively. Beams with FRP reinforcement ratios of 0.64% and 1.28% were found to exhibit lesser deflections of about 15% and 20%, respectively, compared to a similar beam without FRP reinforcement. An analytical approach based on cycle-dependent effective moduli of elasticity of concrete and FRP reinforcement is presented and found to predict the deflections of the test beams well.

To overcome the common deficiencies found in such two-way slabs, such as excessive cracking around columns, excessive deflections and low punching shear strength, it was proposed to investigate the strategic reinforcing steel distribution detailings. Concentration of the top mat of flexural reinforcement result in a higher punching shear resistance, higher post cracking stiffness, a more uniform distribution of strains in the top bars and smaller cracks at all levels of loading.
