In this study is stress behavior of steel support structure is to identify basic research. Steel stress due to load step to determine the behavior of steel using strain gauge steel loading test was performed. Numerical analysis and steel loading test using strain gauge on the actual steel stress behavior was analyzed. First, when tensile loading 3.5tonf load side of the plastic behavior appeared. Elastic model, using numerical analysis and comparison of results, the actual value is saved and you can see some difference. This repeated loading tests on steel can be seen from the results of the stress behavior of the steel rather than the elastic behavior of elastic-plastic behavior is because you can see. In addition, the upper and lower steel stress in compression and tension behavior represents the behavior was similar, but different. Steel loading test results, Y-axis get a compression if X-axis is tension. The future based on this study, the stress sensitivity curve of magnetic anisotropy sensor for non-destructive stress measurement technique for the study will be performed. And the behavior of plastic zone and residual stress to determine the numerical analysis using non-elastic model is needed.

The release of residual stress by mechanical loading and unloading is often performed in the fabrication of box structure fur steel bridge. The proper degree of loading and unloading is significant at release method of residual stress by mechanical loading because that degree is changed by material and geometric shape of welded structure. Therefore, the simulation model that could exactly analyze the release of residual stress by mechanical loading is to be necessary. In this study, the non-linear behavior of weldments under external loading and unloading, such as the decrease and increase of structure stiffness, was investigated by monitoring of nominal stress and strain. Tensile loading and unloading test and the proper degree of stress relaxation was measured by sectioning technique using strain gauge. Analysis model that is indispensable for the effective application of MSR method was established on the basis of test and measurement result.

Structural analysis and fatigue tests have been performed to develop design and evaluation technologies of automotive seat frames. Under the back moment loading condition, the numerical simulation unveiled the maximum stress up to the yield strength at the side frame bracket. To measure the stresses under the test condition, strain gauges were attached to some weakest points of the side frames. the measured strains are in good agreements with the CAE results. On the other hand, some fatigue tests have been performed using the side frame bracket specimens made of various welding types to evaluate their durabilities. From the fatigue tests and the numerical analyses, it was recommended that the bracket welding position should be moved upward.

This paper presents experimental results of advanced investigation carried out on the beams reinforced with Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) rebar and stirrups. Twelve beams reinforced with GFRP and one beam with steel reinforcement of size $230{\times}300{\times}2000mm$ were investigated. Longitudinal reinforcement, shear span and spacing of stirrups were the main variables to form the set. In advanced testing three types of strain gauges for steel, composite and concrete surface were applied to observe strain/stress development against the applied load. Live data were recorded from four strain gauges applied on stirrups, one at center on longitudinal reinforcement, two on the concrete surface and central deflection during the test. Although the focus of the paper was mainly on the behavior of GFRP shear reinforcement, other parallel data were observed for the completeness of the test. Design recommendations of ISIS Canada Design Manual (2007), Japan Society of Civil Engineers (1997) and American Concrete Institute (ACI-440.1R-06) were reviewed. Shear design predictions were compared with experimental results in which it was observed that all the three standards provided conservative predictions. However, ACI found most efficient compare to other two there is room to improve the efficiency of the recommendations.

Recently, various reinforced concrete joints have been used in reinforced concrete structures. Therefore, it is important to grasp the tensile properties of the spliced rebar. In this study, uniaxial tensile tests were conducted on Grade 60 D22(#7), D29(#9), and two kinds of couplers manufactured according to ASTM A615 standard for evaluating ductility of coupler joints. The strain was measured using an image processing method more accurate and capable of measuring at various points freely. As the result of uniaxial tensile test, it was possible to calculate the stress-strain relationship and the longitudinal strain distribution according to the stress stages and it was founded that the average strain becomes lower as more occupying the coupler joint portions in the same gauge length. In addition, the empirical equations are proposed to account for the effect of the length of the coupler on the ultimate strain and the rupture strain.

This paper describes the correlation and relationship between elastic moduli measured by three stiffness measurement methods with different mechanical characteristics to evaluate the compaction characteristics of subgrade soils. The Soil Stiffness Gauge (SSG) with very small strain (${\approx}0.001%$) ranges, static Plate Loading Test (PLT) with mid-level strain (${\approx}0.01{\sim}0.1%$) ranges, and Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) using penetration resistance were implemented to measure the elastic modulus. To use the elastic modulus measured by different measurement methods with a wide range of strain in practice, it is required to identify the correlation and relationship of measured values in advance. The comparison results of the measured elastic moduli ($E_{SSG}$, $E_{PLT}$, $E_{DCP}$) using the three measurement methods for domestic and overseas subgrade soils under various conditions indicate that the evaluated elastic modulus relies on the types of soils and the level of stress condition. The correlation analysis of the measured elastic moduli except the data of cement treated soils indicates that the static elastic modulus ($E_{PLT}$) is evaluated as about 60 to 80% of the dynamic elastic modulus ($E_{SSG}$). Unusual soils such as cement treated soils are required to be corrected by the stress correction during the correlation analysis with typical soils, because these types of soils are sensitive to the stress condition when measuring the static elastic modulus ($E_{PLT}$) of soils. In addition, when considering the use of DCP data for the evaluation of the elastic modulus ($E_{DCP}$), the measured data of the elastic modulus less than 200 MPa show more reliable correlation.

Hydraulic test was conducted to evaluate the structural strength of valve exposed to high pressure environment during combustion progress. For the proof pressure, 1.05 times higher pressure than MEOP was applied in the hydraulic test. Two units of valves were used in the hydraulic test. The result for measured strain of the valve dependent on the pressurization conditions during the test were verified comparing with the results for the finite element analysis. Observing the difference between the results for the finite element analysis and the hydraulic test, the difference was within 20% error and the plastic deformation was not generated.
