Steel corrosion in reinforced concrete structures leads to concrete cover cracking, reduction of bond strength, and reduction of steel cross section. Among theses consequences mentioned, reduction of bond strength between reinforcement and concrete is of great importance to study the behaviour of RC members with corroded reinforcement. In this paper, firstly, an analytical model based on smeared cracking and average stress-strain relationship of concrete in tension is proposed to evaluate the maximum bursting pressure development in the cover concrete for noncorroded bar. Secondly, the internal pressure caused by the expansion of the corrosion products is evaluated by treating the cracked concrete as an orthotropic material. Finally, bond strength for corroded reinforcing bar is calculated and compared with test results.

In manufacturing, process automation and parameter optimization are required in order to improve productivity. Especially in welding process, productivity and weldablity should be considered to determine the process parameter. In this paper, optimization methodology was proposed to determine the welding conditions using the objective function in terms of productivity and weldablity. In order to conduct this, welding experiments were carried out. Tensile test was performed to evaluate the weldability. Neural network model to estimate tensile strength using the laser power, welding speed, and wire feed rate was developed. Objective function was defined using the normalized tensile strength which represented the weldablilty and welding speed and wire feed rate which represented the productivity. The optimal welding parameters which maximized the objective function were determined.

In this paper, a strut-and-tie model approach has been proposed to directly calculate the amount of reinforcements in deep beams, and the force transfer mechanisms for this approach were investigated using linear finite element analysis. The proposed strut-and-tie model provides quite similar force transfer mechanisms to the results of linear finite element analysis for the 28 deep beams. The load-carrying capacities calculated from the proposed method are both accurate and conservative with little scatter or trends for the 214 deep beams. The deep beams have different concrete strengths including high-strength, various combinations of web reinforcements, and wide range of and a/d ratios. Good accuracy was also obtained using VecTor2, nonlinear finite element analysis tool based on the Modified Compression Field Theory. Since the proposed method provides a safe and reliable means for design of deep beams, this can serve to improve design provisions in future adjustments and development of design guidelines.

Supplementary cementing materials (SCM), such as silica fume, slag, and low-calcium fly ash, have been widely used as mineral admixtures in high strength and high performance concrete. Due to the chemical and physical effect of SCM on hydration, compared with Portland cement, hydration process of cement incorporating SCM is much more complex. This paper presents a numerical hydration model which is based on multi-component concept and can simulate hydration of cement incorporating SCM. The proposed model starts with mixture proportion of concrete and considers both chemical and physical effect of SCM on hydration. Using this proposed model, this paper predicts the following properties of hydrating cement-SCM blends as a function of hydration time: reaction ratio of SCM, calcium hydroxide content, heat evolution, porosity, chemically bound water and the development of the compressive strength of concrete. The prediction results agree well with experiment results.

Steel fiber may be used to raise the effectiveness and safety of reinforced concrete structure and to relax its brittle-fracture behavior. However it is to be clearly stated that the uncertainty for the strength of fiber reinforced concrete(SFRC) is rather increased. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the safety of SFRC beam using reliability analysis incorporating realistic uncertainty. This study presents the statistical data and proposes the limit state model to analyze the reliability of SFRC bear In order to verify the efficiency of the proposed limit state model, its numerical application and sensitivity analysis were performed for a continuous SFRC beam. From the results of the numerical analysis, it is founded that the reliability of SFRC beam is significantly difficult from the conventional RC beams and proposed limit state model (or SFRC beam is more rational compared with that for conventional RC beams. Then it may be stated that the reliability analysis of SFRC beams must be carried out for the development of design criteria and the safety assessment.

그 동안 많은 연구자들은 콘크리트의 응력-변형률 관계의 비선형 거동을 적절한 수식으로 나타내기 위해 많은 노력을 해 왔다. 그러나 이 응력-변형률 관계에 대한 대부분의 경험식은 경화된 콘크리트에 촛점을 맞추어 왔으며, 초기재령에서의 콘크리트의 거동을 잘 나타내지 못하였다. 여기서 초기재령에서 경화시까지 걸친 전 콘크리트의 재령에 대한 폭 넓은 이해는 콘크리트구조물의 내구성과 잔존수명을 평가하는데 있어서 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 5가지의 강도수준과 12시간에서 28일까지의 재령에 대하여 응력-변형률 관계를 검토하였으며, 20$\pm$3$^{\circ}C$ 에서 수중양생된 ø100$\times$200mm의 원주공시체에 대하여 1축압축강도실험을 수행했다. 실험결과에 대한 회귀분석을 수행하여 강도와 재령에 따른 응력-변형률 관계의 모델식을 제시하였으며, 제시된 모델식의 검증을 위하여 실험결과와 기존의 실험결과와 모델식에 대한 해석적 검토도 수행하였다. 해석결과, 제시된 모델식이 실험결과와 잘 맞으며 응력-변형률 관계에 강도와 재령이 미치는 영향을 잘 나타내고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 상수도 금속관의 공식특성에 따른 잔존 인장강도 예측모델을 제안하였다. 이들 모델중 회주철관에 대해서는 지수함수형 모델이 실측값에 대한 예측값의 상관성($R^2$)이 높게 나타났으며, 닥타일주철관과 강관 등은 선형함수인 공식특성에 따른 강도손실 모델이 더 예측력이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 국내에서 과거에 제조된 상수도 금속관의 파괴인성은 평균적으로 회주철관이 $40.46kgf/mm^2{\sqrt{mm}}$, 닥타일주철관이 $85.27kgf/mm^2{\sqrt{mm}}$, 그리고 강관이 $97.27kgf/mm^2{\sqrt{mm}}$로 나타났으며, 파괴인성을 이용한 잔존 인장강도 예측모델의 실측값에 대한 예측값의 상관성은 관종에 따라 다르나 0.44에서 0.86로 나타났다. 특히 이들 제안된 모델들을 새로운 지역에 매설된 상수관로에 대하여 적용한 결과, 결정계수가 0.76~0.78로 나타나 향후 노후 상수도 금속관의 잔존 강도를 예측하는데 활용됨으로서 합리적인 개대체 의사결정에도 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the capability of different strength-maturity models to account for the effect of the hydration heat on the in-place strength development of high-strength concrete specifically developed for nuclear facility structures under various ambient curing temperatures. To simulate the primary containment-vessel of a nuclear reactor, three 1200-mm-thick wall specimens were prepared and stored under isothermal conditions of approximately $5^{\circ}C$ (cold temperature), $20^{\circ}C$ (reference temperature), and $35^{\circ}C$ (hot temperature). The in situ compressive strengths of the mock-up walls were measured using cores drilled from the walls and compared with strengths estimated from various strength-maturity models considering the internal temperature rise owing to the hydration heat. The test results showed the initial apparent activation energies at the hardening phase were approximately 2 times higher than the apparent activation energies until the final setting. The differences between core strengths and field-cured cylinder strengths became more notable at early ages and with the decrease in the ambient curing temperature. The strength-maturity model proposed by Yang provides better reliability in estimating in situ strength of concrete than that of Kim et al. and Pinto and Schindler.

The research is to suggest the compensating strength values depending on various managing periods of concrete based on the strength development model calculated with equivalent age method for 20% of blast furnace slag replaced concrete. As a result, for 28 days of managing period, 9, 6, and 3MPa of compensating strength values were suggested when the temperatures were from 4 to 6℃, from 6 to 12℃, from 12 to 17℃, respectively. Additionally, for 42 days of managing period, 6 and 3MPa of compensating strength value was suggested when the temperature was from 4 to 7℃, from 7 to 12℃, and for 56 days of managing period, 3MPa of compensating strength value was suggested when the temperature was from 4 to 9℃. Furthermore, for 28, 42, 56, and 91 days of managing periods, any compensating strength values were needed when the temperature were higher than 17, 12, 9, and 4℃, respectively.
