The compressive strength of concrete is commonly used criterion in producing concrete. However, the tests on the compressive strength are complicated and time-consuming. More importantly, it is too late to make improvement even if the test result does not satisfy the required strength, since the test is usually performed at the 28th day after the placement of concrete at the construction site. Therefore, accurate and realistic strength estimation before the placement of concrete is being highly required. In this study, the estimation of the compressive strength of concrete was performed by probabilistic neural network (PNN) on the basis of concrete mix proportions. The estimation performance of PNN was improved by considering the correlation between input data and targeted output value. Adaptive probabilistic neural network (APNN) was proposed to automatically calculate the smoothing parameter in the conventional PNN by using the scheme of dynamic decay adjustment algorithm. The conventional PNN and APNN were applied to predict the compressive strength of concrete using actual test data of a concrete company. APNN showed better results than the conventional PNN in predicting the compressive strength of concrete.

In this paper, the new non-destructive equation will be proposed and evaluated in comparison to the other foreign's non-destructive equation. Through the comparisons cores strength of mock structure with compressive strength obtained from new non-destructive equation ; rebound hammer, ultra-sonic pulse velocity and combined method, it will be analyzed about application of non-destructive equation. The results are following. The new non-destructive equations follow ; (1) $F_c=9.5R{\cdot}N+62.5$ (2) $F_c=243Vp-739$ (3) $F_c=8.1R_o+205.3V_p-802$ where, $F_c$ : Compressive Strength, $R_o$ : Rebound Number. $V_p$ : Ultra-Sonic Pulse Velocity Trough the result of mock structure test, the combined method is superior to rebound method and ultra-sonic pulse velocity method in the estimation of concrete strength. In order to apply the non-destructive equation of concrete strength to the structures, it is necessary that we should be made process study on the non-destructive equation for estimation of concrete strength in the range, time and strength of application under long-term.

According to the requirement of wing weight estimation and frequent adjustments during aircraft conceptual design, a wing weight estimation method considering the constraints of structural strength and stiffness is proposed to help designers make wing weight estimations rapidly and accurately. This method implements weight predictions on the basis of structure weight optimization with stiffness constraints and strength constraints, which include achievement of wing shape parametric modeling, rapid structure layout, finite element (FE) model automated generation, load calculation, structure analysis, weight optimization, and weight computed based on modeling. A software tool is developed with this wing weight estimation method. This software can realize the whole process of wing weight estimation with the method and the workload of wing weight estimation is reduced because much of the work can be completed by the software. Finally, an example is given to illustrate that this weight estimation method is effective.

고강도 강의 경우 재료의 높은 항복비와 모재인성 부족으로 인해 휨 구조부재에 적용하기가 용이하지 않다. 고강도 강 휨재의 가장 큰 문제점 중 하나는 일반 연강접합부와 마찬가지로 보 단부의 취성파단이다. 연강접합부의 경우 부재의 보강 및 보 단부의 용접접근공 상세의 개량을 통하여 국내기준의 특수모멘트골조용 접합상세가 다수 개발된 바 있으나 고강도강 접합부에 대한 적용성 평가는 아직까지 미비한 실정이다. 본 연구는 국내에서 개발된 고강도 강(HSA800)을 적용한 기둥-보 접합부의 적용성 평가를 위한 초기단계의 연구이며 보 단부의 용접접근공 상세에 따른 고강도 강 접합부의 구조성능을 실험 및 해석적 방법을 통하여 고찰하였다.

본 연구는 철근콘크리트 단층 구조물의 구조 부재 위치에 대한 비파괴검사법을 이용한 추정 신뢰도를 알아보기 위해 기둥, 벽체, 보 및 슬래브로 구성된 실험체를 제작하고, 기존 추정식과 비교 과정에서 정확한 분석을 위해 오차율 비교와 모평균 구간 추정을 사용하여 통계적 접근을 통한 신뢰성을 분석하고자 한다. 그 결과, 초음파속도법을 이용하여 압축강도를 추정한 결과와 코어시험 결과를 비교한 전체 평균 오차율은 18.8%, 반발경도법을 이용하여 압축강도를 추정한 결과와 코어시험 결과를 비교한 전체 평균 오차율은 20.1%가 도출되어 현장 적용성을 확인하였다. 그리고 부재별 신뢰성 부분에서 초음파속도법과 반발경도법을 이용하여 신속하고 효율적인 구조물 안전진단을 하기 위해서 각각 벽체 부재와 보 부재를 중심으로 압축강도 추정 시 신뢰도 높은 결과를 도출되는 것을 확인하였다.

최근 콘크리트 산업은 $CO_2$ 가스 배출 저감을 목적으로 플라이애시 및 고로슬래그 미분말 등의 혼화재 사용량이 증가되고 있다. 그러나 국내의 경우 구조설계기준에서 사용되고 있는 강도 발현 예측 모델은 시멘트 종류 및 양생방법에 따른 상수값 ${\beta}_{sc}$를 포틀랜드시멘트에 관해서만 규정함에 따라 플라이애시 및 고로슬래그 미분말을 혼합 사용한 콘크리트의 시간에 따른 강도 발현 특성을 반영하지 못하는 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 플라이애시 및 고로스래그 미분말을 혼합한 보통강도 및 고강도 영역의 콘크리트의 시간에 따른 강도를 평가하였으며, 혼화재 종류 및 혼합률에 따른 콘크리트 강도발현 상수 ${\beta}_{sc}$ 값을 제안하였다.

A methodology for estimation of statistical properties (viz. mean and standard deviation) of the expected seismic damage to reinforced concrete framed structures subject to corrosion of reinforcement, over a specified reference time (typically the service life of the structure) is proposed in this paper. The damage to the structure under the earthquake loading is characterised by the damage index, determined using the modified Park and Ang damage model. The reduction in area, yield strength and strain at ultimate of steel reinforcement, and the reduction in compressive strength of cover concrete due to corrosion are taken into account in the estimation of damage. The proposed methodology is illustrated through an example problem. From the results obtained, it is noted that there is an increase of about 70% in the mean value of expected seismic damage to the reinforced concrete frame considered over a reference time of 30 years when effect of corrosion is taken into consideration. This indicates that there is a need to consider the effect of corrosion of reinforcement on the estimation of expected seismic damage.

The depth effect on bending strength of Japanese larch structural lumber was investigated by using the published data of two different depth lumbers with the same length. Depth effect parameters were derived from Weibull's weakest link theory and compared to the results from other researches. Depth effect on bending strength was significant for No.1 and No.3 lumber, but not insignificant for No.2 lumber. Calculated value of the depth effect adjustment factors was 0.21, 0.11 and 0.22 by lumber grade, respectively. These results were similar to those results from previous researches and supported depth effect on bending strength of lumber. An apparent depth adjustment factor has been proposed to 0.2 in the literatures. Based on this study, depth adjustment factor was considered to 0.2 as a conservative optimum design value that should be incorporated in domestic building code (KBC) for structural lumber.

This paper presents the details of size independent fracture energy and bi-linear tension softening relation for nano modified high strength concrete. Nano silica in powder form has been used as partial replacement of cement by 2 wt%. Two popular methods, namely, simplified boundary effect method of Karihaloo et al. (2003) and RILEM (1985) fracture energy with P-${\delta}$ tail correction have been employed for estimation of size independent fracture energy for nano modified high strength concrete (compressive strength ranges from 55 MPa to 72 MPa). It is found that both the methods gave nearly same values, which is an additional evidence that either of them can be employed for determination of size independent fracture energy. Bi-linear tension softening relation corresponding to their size independent fracture energy has been constructed in an inverse manner based on the concept of non-linear hinge from the load-crack mouth opening plots of notched three-point bend beams.

It has been reported that destruction test by core collection is the most reliable of the structural concrete strength in present building construction field. But it causes low efficiency by damage and cutting in structure due to the core collection. It also has some problems in repairing. Additionally in case of strength test with management specimen, different environment compared to the structure environment cause problems about estimation precise structure strength. Therefore, it is required to develop structure direct strength test that has test values and credibility above the ones obtained by core specimen collection strength test and seasonal specimen test to suggest a reasonable and practical management method of structural concrete.
