In structural analysis of prestressed concrete continuous flexural mambers, secondary effects produced by tendon forces should be reasonably estimated. The secondary moment at service load stags is normally used for ultimate required moment caculation in strength design. This concept has to be reviewed when precise analysis is performed considering construction step, time dependent properties of concrete and tendon. An ultimate moment computation proposed, concept and structural behavior. The previously proposed procedure by other researcher and the proposed procedure are compared and reviewed for the currently constructed precast prestressed concrete bridge.

This paper discusses a framework for predicting the flexural strength of prestressed and non-prestressed FRP reinforced T-shaped concrete beams using soft computing techniques. An analysis of 83 tests performed on T-beams of varying widths has been conducted for this purpose with different widths of compressive face, beam depth, compressive strength of concrete, area of prestressed and non-prestressed FRP bars, elasticity modulus of prestressed and non-prestressed FRP bars, and the ultimate tensile strength of prestressed and non-prestressed FRP bars. By analyzing the data using two soft computing techniques, named artificial neural networks (ANN) and gene expression programming (GEP), the fundamental parameters affecting the flexural performance of prestressed and non-prestressed FRP reinforced T-shaped beams were identified. The results showed that although the proposed ANN model outperformed the GEP model with higher values of R and lower error values, the closed-form equation of the GEP model can provide a simple way to predict the effect of input parameters on flexural strength as the output. The sensitivity analysis results revealed the most influential input parameters in ANN and GEP models are respectively the beam depth and elasticity modulus of FRP bars.

Steel-concrete composite beam with profiled steel sheet has gained its popularity in the last two decades. Due to the ageing of these structures, retrofitting in terms of flexural strength is necessary to ensure that the aged structures can carry the increased traffic load throughout their design life. The steel ribs, which presented in the profiled steel deck, limit the use of shear connectors. This leads to a poor degree of composite action between the concrete slab and steel beam compared to the solid slab situation. As a result, the shear connectors that connects the slab and beam will be subjected to higher shear stress which may also require strengthening to increase the load carrying capacity of an existing composite structure. While most of the available studies focus on the strengthening of longitudinal shear and flexural strength separately, the present work investigates the effect of both flexural and longitudinal shear strengthening of steel-concrete composite beam with composite slab in terms of failure modes, ultimate load carrying capacity, ductility, end-slip, strain profile and interface differential strain. The flexural strengthening was conducted using carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) or steel plate on the soffit of the steel I-beam, while longitudinal shear capacity was enhanced using post-installed high strength bolts. Moreover, a combination of both the longitudinal shear and flexural strengthening techniques was also implemented (hybrid strengthening). It is concluded that hybrid strengthening improved the ultimate load carrying capacity and reduce slip and interface differential strain that lead to improved composite action. However, hybrid strengthening resulted in brittle failure mode that decreased ductility of the beam.

An experimental investigation on the behavior of reinforced concrete coupling beams is presented. The test variables are the span-to-depth ratio, the ratio of flexural reinforcement and the ratio of shear rebar. The distribution of arch action and truss action which compose the mechanism of shear resistance is discussed. This study proposes the deformation model for reinforced concrete coupling beams considering the bond slip of flexural reinforcement. The yielding of flexural reinforcements determines yielding states and the ultimate states of reinforced concrete coupling beam are defined as the ultimate compressive strain of struts and the degradation of compressive strength due to principal tensile strain of struts. It is expected that this model can be applied to displacement-based design methods.

In this study, twelve different glass fiber reinforced polymer concrete composite panel specimens with various rib heights and tensile side and reinforced side thickness were produced, and the flexural tests were conducted to figure out the effect of The height and thickness influencing on the flexural properties of composite panel. Test results of the study are presented. Especially, a prediction equation of the ultimate moment based on the strength design method agrees well with the test results, and it is thought to be useful for the corresponding design of cross-section according to various spans as the glass fiber reinforced polymer concrete composite panel is applied for a permanent mold.

Recently, as the building structure has been larger, higher, longer and more specialized, the demand of material with high-strength concrete for building has been increasing. In this research, silica-fume was used as an admixture in order to get a high-strength concrete. From the test result, High-strength concrete with cylinder strength of 1,200kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ in 28-days was produced and tested. The static test was carried out to measure the ultimate load, the initial load of flexural and diagonal cracking, crack patterns and fracture modes. The load versus strain and load versus deflection relations were obtained from the static test. The relation of cycle loading to deflections on the mid-span, the crack propagation and the modes of failure according to cycle number, fatigue life and S-N curve were observed through the fatigue test. Based on the fatigue test results, high-strength reinforced concrete beams failed to 57~66 percent of the static ultimate strength. Fatigue strength about two million cycles from S-N curves was certified by 60 percent of static ultimate strength.

The purpose of this study is to establish flexural behavior of high-strength concrete beams confined in the pure bending zone with stirrups. The experiment was carried out on full-scale high-strength reinforced concrete beams, of which the compressive strengths were 40 MPa and 70 MPa. The beams were confined with rectangular closed stirrups. Test results are reviewed in terms of flexural capacity and ductility. The effect of web reinforcement ratio, longitudinal reinforcement ratio and shear span to beam depth ratio on ductility are investigated. The analytic method is based on finite element method using fiber-section model, which is known to define the behavior of reinforced concrete structures well up to the ultimate state and is proven to be valid by the verification with the experimental results above. It is found that confinement of concrete compressive regions with closed stirrups does not affect the flexural strength but results in a significantly increased ductility. Moreover, the ductility tends to increase as the quantity of stirrups increases by reducing the spacing of stirrups.

철근콘크리트 보 단면의 극한강도를 예측할 때에는 부재의 크기를 고려하지 않는 것이 일반적이다. 그러나 부재 단면의 휨압 축강도는 부재의 크기가 증가함에 따라 항상 감소하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 철근콘크리트 보에 대한 실험적 고찰을 통해 휨압축강도의 크기효과를 살펴보고 이에 대한 적절한 모델식을 제시하고자 한다. 보의 유효깊이(d$\approx$15, 30, 60cm)를 주요 매개변수로 하였으며 전단스팬/유효깊이(a/d)는 3.0으로 하였고 시편의 폭은 20 cm로 일정하게 하여 휨하중을 가하며 실험을 수행하였다. 실험에서 구한 하중, 변형률, 및 보의 처짐 등을 이용하여 휨압축응력-변형률 관계를 3차의 비선형 다항식을 이용한 회귀분석을 수행하여 구하였다. 분석 결과 보의 유효깊이가 증가함에 따라 휨압축강도, 최대 휨압축응력에서의 변형률, 그리고 극한변형률이 감소하며 취성적인 파괴거동을 나타내었다. 그리고 설계기준에서 제시하고 있는 $\beta$l값과 보의 극한 변형률 값에 대해서도 크기효과가 있으므로 이에 대한 검토가 필요하다고 판단된다. 마지막으로 수정된 크기효과법칙을 사용하여 철근콘크리트 보의 휨압축강도에 대한 크기 효과모델식을 제시하였다.
