Generally, a box tube, which is used for an existing square CFT structure, is made by welding four plates. The manufacturing efficiency of this steel tube is poor, and it also needs special welding technology to weld its internal diaphragm and the through diaphragm. Therefore, an interior-anchor-type square steel tube was developed using the method of cold-forming thin plates to prevent welding of the stress concentration position, and to maximize the section efficiency. And, considering of the flow of beam flange load, the efficiency of erection and the weldability of the diaphragm to thin walled steel column, the external diaphragm connection was selected as the suitable type for the welded built-up square CFT column to beam connection. And, an analytical study and tests were conducted to evaluate the structural performance of the suggested connection details and to verify the suggested equations for the connection details. Through this study, the composite effect of the internal anchor to concrete, the resistance and stress distribution of the connections before and after the existing column is welded to the beam, the effective location of welding in connection were analyzed.

A study was conducted to secure structural performance as well as improve workability by improving the reinforcement details of special shear wall and coupling beams. Based on the specimen in which the existing diagonal bundle reinforcement and shear reinforcement were placed, the specimens replaced with thick diagonal reinforcing bars and the specimens replaced with horizontal reinforcing bars were selected as variables. As a result of the experiment, the specimen, which replaced the existing diagonal reinforcement with a thick-diameter reinforcement, showed a similar behavior to that of the basic specimen, and it was evaluated that it can be applied as an alternative to the details.

These days, there are lots of skyscrapers being constructed in downtown areas. However, it requires columns which have a way heavier load. and far more extensive cross sections of column as well. Therefore, it is hard to lay the foundation in downtown areas. This being the case, composite columns such as CFT column are primarily being used. However, CFT column is occurred of difficult beam-column connection development and lower performance since CFT column is closed cross-section. Especially, the result of the study concerning development of connection details with CFT column and exterior diaphragms are very low in current state. In this study, through developing CFT column-H shape steel beam applicating Y shape plate, set width and depth of Y shape plate which affect structural performance of connection details applicating Y shape plate as main variables, and evaluate structural performance through experiments. And also, design Y shape plate used at experiments as setting allowable stress for tension suggested at design criteria lower than axial force of tension side flange connected Y shape plate, through shape of destruction, verify the structural safety and performance of Y shape plate.

In this study, experimental and analytical studies were conducted on the structural performance of permanent steel formed wide beams in construction stage. Four specimens were fabricated with different rib spacings of the side steel formwork and fixing plate depths, and experimental tests were performed to investigate the effects of variables on the structural performance. Also, an finite element analysis model of the steel permanent formwork wide beam was proposed based on the test results. Using the proposed model, parametric studies were performed with variables including rib spacing of the bottom and side steel formwork, spacing, depth, and thickness of the fixing plate to derive optimized details. Furthermore, an artificial neural network model was developed to easily estimate the deformation of the steel permanent formwork wide beam with various details.

Most commercial buildings among existing RC buildings in Korea have a multi-story wall-frame structure where RC shear wall is commonly used as its core at stairways or elevators. The members of the existing middle and low-rise wall-frame buildings are likely arranged in ordinary details considering building occupancy, and the importance and difficulty of member design. This is because there are few limitations, considerations, and financial burdens on the code for designing members with ordinary details. Compared with the intermediate or unique details, the ductility and overstrength are insufficient. Furthermore, the behavior of the member can be shear-dominated. Since shear failure in vertical members can cause a collapse of the entire structure, nonlinear characteristics such as shear strength and stiffness deterioration should be adequately reflected in the analysis model. With this background, an 8-story RC wall-frame building was designed as a building frame system with ordinary shear walls, and the effect of reflecting the shear failure mode of columns and walls on the collapse mechanism was investigated. As a result, the shear failure mode effect on the collapse mechanism was evident in walls, not columns. Consequently, it is recommended that the shear behavior characteristics of walls are explicitly considered in the analysis of wall-frame buildings with ordinary details.

The structural analysis considering the soil-structure interaction is very important in the design process of underground structures located on the site with various soil conditions. In practice, simplified modelling techniques to obtain the approximate solution are used in accordance with the specifications. However, their details are insufficient for practical engineers to obtain the stable solutions and the analysis results of each engineer occasionally my be different in spite of the same problem. In this study, the sensitivity of structural behaviour on the underground structures is analyzed according to the structural modelling techniques of existing specifications. It is performed to obtain the fundamental informations to establish the guide to obtain the stable solutions in practical analysis of the underground structures such as subway structures.

The purpose of this study is to explore the methodology of structural planning and detail, maintaining a close connection between architect and structural engineer. Actually it is difficult to solve a detail in a special structure, without investigation of structural behavior. In such a detail, it is hard to estimate the accurate flow of force, no more than a formative presentation. I will purpose to solve the processing of desirable detail, as a point of engineer's view, under the cooperative relationship between architect and structural engineer.

This paper presents a study on the structural behaviour of modular steel scaffolds through both experimental and numerical investigations. Three one-storey and three two-storey modular steel scaffolds were built and tested to failure in order to examine the structural behaviour of typical modular steel scaffolds. Details of the tests and their test results were presented in this paper. Moreover, an advanced non-linear analysis method was employed to evaluate the load carrying capacities of these scaffolds under different support conditions. Comparisons between the experimental and the numerical results on the structural behaviour of these modular steel scaffolds were also presented. Moreover, the restraining effects of external supports in practical situations were also studied through finite element methods. The predicted load carrying capacities and deformations at failure of these models under partially restrained conditions were found to be close to the experimental results. A codified design method for column buckling with modified slenderness ratios was adopted for practical design of modular steel scaffolds.
