Ring beam is the main anchorage zone of the tendons in the nuclear power prestressed concrete containment vessel (PCCV). Its safety is crucial and has a great influence on the overall performance of PCCV. In this paper, two half-scale ring beams were tested to investigate the mechanical performance of the anchorage zone in the PCCV under multidirectional pressure. The effect of working condition with different tension sequences was investigated. Additionally, a half axisymmetric plane model of the containment was established by the finite element simulation to further predict the experimental responses and propose the local reinforcement design in the anchorage zone of the ring beam. The results showed that the ultimate load of the specimens under both working conditions was greater than the nominal ultimate tensile force. The original reinforcement design could meet the bearing capacity requirements, but there was still room for optimization. The ring beam was generally under pressure in the anchorage area, while the splitting force appeared in the under-anchor area, and the spalling force appeared in the corner area of the tooth block, which could be targeted for local strengthening design.

Nickel thin film is one of the most important materials used in micromachined structure. To measure the mechanical properties of electroplated nickel thin film, two techniques are adopted and compared quantitatively with. One is nano-indentation test to measure the elastic modulus. The other is tensile test to measure not only elastic modulus but also yield strength and plastic deformation, ultimate strength. To perform the tensile test, the test apparatus was constructed with linear guided servo motor for actuation, load cell for force measurement and dual microscope for strain measurement.

콘크리트구조물의 한계상태설계법이 적용되면서 구조물의 극한상태까지 고려하는 설계가 이루어지고 있다. 실제 철근콘크리트 부재가 인장력을 부담할 때 부재가 항복한 후에도 극한상태까지 콘크리트가 인장력을 부담한다. 따라서 한계상태 거동에 대한 정확한 평가를 위해서는 휨 부재의 항복 후 인장강화효과에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 복철근 직사각형 단면을 가지는 RC 단순보에 대하여 4점 휨 실험을 수행하였고, 영상분석기법을 이용하여 부재의 거동을 상세하게 분석하였다. 분석 결과를 이용하여 휨 인장강화효과 계수를 도입한 항복 후 인장강화효과 추정식을 제안하였고, 이를 기존 연구들의 실험 결과를 통해 적용성을 검증하였다. 부재의 연성거동을 대표하는 극한 변형률과 항복 변형률 차이가 실험 결과와 유사하게 나타나 제안식의 예측이 비교적 정확한 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구는 국내 11 네일링 현장을 대상으로 경사계와 변형률계의 계측자료를 이용하여 쏘일네일링 벽체의 변위와 네일의 인장력을 고찰하였다. 연구결과 최대수평변위량은 시공과정이 양호한 현장의 경우와 불량한 경우 각각 굴착깊이(H)의 0.2%, 0.3%이하로 나타났으며, 벽체의 최대수평변위 발생위치는 지표면으로부터 굴착심도의 약 5~l5%이내의 벽체상단에서 발생하였다. 최종굴착깊이$(H_f)$와 네일의 길이(L)와의 길이비 R이 0.5이하, 0.5~0.6, 0.6~0.7인 경우 최대수평변위가 각각 굴착깊이(H)의 0.4%, 0.3%, 0.2%로 나타났다. 그러나 길이비 R이 0.7이상인 경우에는 최대수평변위가 굴착깊이의 약0.3%로 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며 이러한 결과는 굴착깊이가 얕고, 토사층 부분이 많았기 때문으로 판단된다. 최대인장력을 무차원화한 K값은 지표면으로부터 최종굴착깊이$(H_f)$의 $0.6H_f$까지는 0.8이하로 나타났으며, $0.6H_f$에서부터 최종굴착면까지 선형적으로 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 최종굴착완료시 네일의 최대 인장력$(T_{max)$이 네일의 항복인장력$(T_{\sigmay)$에 최대 60%까지 도달하는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper presents a numerical model developed to evaluate the load-deflection and moment-curvature relationship for concrete beams strengthened externally with four different Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composite systems. The developed model considers the inelastic behavior of concrete section subjected to a combined axial force and bending moment. The model accounts for tensile strength of concrete as defined by the modulus of rupture of concrete. Based on the adopted material constitutive relations, the model evaluates the sectional curvature as a function of the applied axial load and bending moment. Deflections along the beam are evaluated using a finite difference technique taking into account support conditions. The developed numerical technique has been tested on a cantilever beam with a transverse load applied at its end. A study of the behavior of the beam with tension reinforcement compared to that with FRP areas giving an equivalent ultimate moment has been carried out. Moreover, cracking of the section in the tensile region at ultimate load has also been considered. The results indicated that beams reinforced with FRP systems possess more ductility than those reinforced with steel. This ductility, however, can be tuned by increasing the area of FRP or by combining different FRP layers.

A mechanical model was developed to predict the behavior of point-loaded RC slender beams (a/d > 2.5) without stirrups. It is commonly accepted by most researchers that a diagonal tension crack plays a predominant role in the failure mode of these beams, but the failure mechanism of these members is still debatable. In this paper, it was assumed that diagonal tension failure was triggered by the concrete cover splitting due to the dowel action at the initial location of diagonal tension cracks, which propagate from flexural cracks. When concrete cover splitting occurred, the shape of a diagonal tension crack was simultaneously developed, which can be determined from the principal tensile stress trajectory. This fictitious crack rotates onto the crack tip with load increase. During the rotation, all forces acting on the crack (i.e, dowel force of longitudinal bars, vertical component of concrete tensile force, shear force by aggregate interlock, shear force in compression zone) were calculated by considering the kinematical conditions such as crack width or sliding. These forces except for the shear force in the compression zone were uncoupled with respect to crack width and sliding by the proposed constitutive relations for friction along the crack. Uncoupling the shear forces along the crack was aimed at distinguishing each force from the total shear force and clarifying the failure mechanism of RC slender beams without stirrups. In addition, a proposed method deriving the dowel force of longitudinal bars made it possible to predict the secondary shear failure. The proposed model can be used to predict not only the entire behavior of point-loaded RC slender shear beams, but also the ultimate shear strength. The experiments used to validate the proposed model are reported in a companion paper.

본 연구는 재래 철근과 Fiber Reinforced Polymer 보강재를 사용한 Hybrid Reinforcement System의 기본 개념과 적용성에 대해 기술하고 있다. 콘크리트 교량상관은 보로서 지지되고 상하 두층의 보강재로 인장보강되어 있다. HRS를 이용한 콘크리트 교량상판에서는 보 지지점 부근의 부모멘트에 대한 상부 인장력은 FRP 봉으로 저항하고 보 지지점 중앙부근의 하부인장력은 재래의 철근으로 저항한다. HRS를 이용한 콘크리트 교량상판은 FRP 봉은 비 부식성이고, 부식되기 쉬운 철근은 교량상판 위로부터 가급적 멀리하여 부식물질의 침투를 막을 수 있는 장점이 있다. HRS를 이용한 콘크리트 교량상판은 또한 극한상태에서 충분한 연성을 가지고 있다. 그 이유는 1) FRP봉은 철근보다 탄성계수가 낮고 파단시의 최대 변형률이 크며, 2) 충분한 FRP 보강량을 사용하면 극한변형률을 낮출 수 있으며, 3) 부모멘트 구간의 일부를 비부착시켜 극한 변형률을 낮출 수 있다. 실험 연구 결과 보통의 FRP보강비의 범위에서는 FRP 및 HRS 콘크리트 슬래브는 FRP봉의 파단이 아니라 콘크리트의 압축에 의해 파피됨을 보여주고 있다. 그러므로 HRS를 이용한 연속 콘크리트 교량상관에서는 정모멘트부의 하부철근이 먼저 항복하여 소성힌지를 형성하고 나중에 부보멘트나 정모멘트부의 콘크리트가 압축파괴되어 FRP 콘크리트 슬래브에 비하여 상당한 소성에너지를 소모한다.

The aim of the present paper is to develop a computer program predicting ultimate fracture strength of initially cracked structure under monotonically increasing external loads. For this purpose, two kinds of 3-D isoparametric solid elements, one 6-node wedge element and another 8-node brick element are formulated along the small deformation theory. Plasticity in the element is checked using von Mises' yield criterion. Elasto-plastic stiffness matrix of the element is calculated taking account of strain hardening effect. If the principal strain at crack tip which is one nodal point exceeds the critical strain dependin on the material property, crack tip is supposed to be opened and the crack tip node which was previously constrained in the direction perpendicular to the crack line is released. After that, the crack lay be propagated to the adjacent node. Once a crack tip node is fractured, the energy of the newly fractured node should be released which is to be absorbed by the remaining part. The accumulated reaction force which was carried by the newly fractured node so far is then applied in the opposite direction. During the action of crack tip relief force, since unloading may be occured in the plastic element, unloading check should be made. If a plastic element unloads, elastic stress-strain equation is used in the calculation of the stiffness matrix of the element, while for a loading element, elasto-plastic stress-strain equation is continuously used. Verification of the computer program is made comparing with the experimental results for center cracked panel subjected to uniform tensile load. Also some factors affecting ultimate fracture strength of initially cracked plate are investigated. It is concluded that the computer program developed here gives an accurate solution and becomes useful tool for predicting ultimate fracture load of initially cracked structural system under monotonically increasing external loads.

An experimental study was conducted for the effectiveness of steel-CFRP composite (CFRP laminates sandwiched between two steel strips) as stirrups in concrete beam to carry shearing force and comparison was made with conventional steel bar stirrups. A total numbers of 8 concrete beams were tested under four point loads. Each beam measured 1,600 mm long, 160 mm width and 240 mm depth. The beams were composed of same grade of concrete, with same amount of flexural steel but different shear reinforcements. The main variables include, type of stirrups (shape of stirrups and number of CFRP layers used in each stirrup) and number of stirrups used in shear spans. After getting on an excellent closeness between the values of ultimate shear resistance and ultimate tensile load of steel-CFRP stirrups, it could be concluded that the steel-CFRP stirrups represent the effective solution of premature failure of FRP stirrups at the bends.

확공형 앵커에 대한 인발시 거동 특성을 분석하기 위해 유한요소해석 프로그램을 이용하여 수치해석을 수행하였다. 확공형 앵커에 대한 수치해석 결과에서 확개각도의 변화에 따른 앵커의 지지력 비율 결과값과 앵커의 강선에 작용하는 축하중 결과값의 비교 분석을 통해 확개각도의 크기가 커질수록 앵커의 지지력 증대효과가 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었다. 확개각도가 $30{\sim}60^{\circ}$인 경우 앵커인장력에 따른 변형 및 응력분포 특성은 유사하게 나타났으나 동일한 앵커인장력이 작용할 경우 확개각도에 따라 상부 변위발생량의 차이로 인하여 마찰저항력 발현정도에 차이가 나타남을 볼 수 있었다. 또한, 본 연구에서 적용된 확공형 비트가 상부를 원뿔형으로 굴착함에 따라 그라우팅부 상부 원뿔위치에서 최대압축력과 인장력이 발생하는 것이 확인되었으며, 상부 그라우팅부의 인장파괴가 발생할 가능성이 있음을 알 수 있었다.
