Objective: To determine the effect of surface anodization on the interfacial strength between an orthodontic microimplant (MI) and the rabbit tibial bone, particularly in the initial phase aft er placement. Methods: A total of 36 MIs were driven into the tibias of 3 mature rabbits by using the self-drilling method and then removed aft er 6 weeks. Half the MIs were as-machined (n = 18; machined group), while the remaining had anodized surfaces (n = 18; anodized group). The peak insertion torque (PIT) and the peak removal torque (PRT) values were measured for the 2 groups of MIs. These values were then used to calculate the interfacial shear strength between the MI and cortical bone. Results: There were no statistical differences in terms of PIT between the 2 groups. However, mean PRT was significantly greater for the anodized implants ($3.79{\pm}1.39$ Ncm) than for the machined ones ($2.05{\pm}1.07$ Ncm) (p < 0.01). The interfacial strengths, converted from PRT, were calculated at 10.6 MPa and 5.74 MPa for the anodized and machined group implants, respectively. Conclusions: Anodization of orthodontic MIs may enhance their early-phase retention capability, thereby ensuring a more reliable source of absolute anchorage.

The applicability of limit analysis methods in design and assessment of concrete structures generally requires a certain plastic deformation capacity. The latter is primarily provided by the ductility of the reinforcement, being additionally affected by the bond properties between reinforcing steel and concrete since they provoke strain localization in the reinforcement at cracks. The bond strength of reinforcing bars is not only governed by concrete quality, but also by construction details such as bar ribbing, bar spacing or concrete cover thickness. For new concrete structures, a potentially unfavorable impact on bond strength can easily be anticipated through appropriate code rules on construction details. In existing structures, these requirements may not be necessarily satisfied, consequently requiring additional considerations. This two-part paper investigates in a theoretical study the impacts of the most frequently encountered construction details which may not satisfy design code requirements on bond strength, steel strain localization and plastic deformation capacity of cracked structural concrete. The first part introduces basic considerations on bond, strain localization and plastic deformation capacity as well as the fundamentals of the Tension Chord Model underlying the further investigations. It also analyzes the impacts of the hardening behavior of reinforcing steel and concrete quality. The second part discusses the impacts of construction details (bar ribbing, bar spacing, and concrete cover thickness) and of additional structure-specific features such as bar diameter and crack spacing.

The damage to non-structural elements in buildings has been increasing due to earthquakes. In Korea, post-installed anchors produced overseas have been mainly used for seismic anchorage of non-structural components to structures. Recently, a new cast-in-place concrete insert anchor installed in concrete without drilling has been developed in Korea. In this paper, an experimental study was conducted to evaluate the tensile and shear strengths of the newly developed anchor under monotonic load. The failure modes of the tension specimens were divided into concrete breakout failure and steel failure, and all shear specimens showed steel failure. In both tension and shear, the maximum loads of specimens were greater than the nominal strengths predicted by the concrete design code (KDS 14 20 54). As a result, it is expected that the current code can also be used to calculate the strength of the developed cast-in anchor.

Attempts at improving beam-column joint performance has resulted in non-conventional ways of reinforcement such as the use of the crossed inclined bars in the joint area. Despite the wide accumulation of test data, the influence of the crossed inclined bars on the shear strength of the cyclically loaded exterior beam-column joints has not yet been quantified and incorporated into code recommendations. In this study, the investigation of joints has been pursued on two different fronts. In the first approach, the parameters that influence the behaviour of the cyclically loaded beam-column joints are investigated. Several parametric studies are carried out to explore the shear resisting mechanisms of cyclically loaded beam-column joints using an experimental database consisting of a large number of joint tests. In the second approach, the mechanical behaviour of joints is investigated and the equations for the principal tensile strain and the average shear stress are derived from joint mechanics. It is apparent that the predictions of these two approaches agree well with each other. A design equation that predicts the shear strength of the cyclically loaded exterior beam-column joints is proposed. The design equation proposed has three major differences from the previously suggested design equations. First, the influence of the bond conditions on the joint shear strength is considered. Second, the equation takes the influence of the shear transfer mechanisms of the crossed inclined bars into account and, third, the equation is applicable on joints with high concrete cylinder strength. The proposed equation is compared with the predictions of the other design equations. It is apparent that the proposed design equation predicts the joint shear strength accurately and is an improvement on the existing code recommendations.

철근항복강도가 420 MPa만 사용되는 원자력발전소는 대구경 철근이 과밀 배근되어 정밀시공이 어렵고 콘크리트구조물의 품질저하가 우려된다. 과밀배근 해소를 위해 항복강도 550 MPa 철근의 사용이 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 550 MPa 고강도철근의 실용화를 위해 요구되는 여러 검토 항목 중, 철근과 콘크리트 일체 거동을 위해 필요한 43 mm 갈고리철근의 정착거동을 실험적으로 평가하였다. 실험체 모두 목표했던 측면파열파괴가 발생하여, 최대하중에서 측면 피복두께가 급격히 탈락하였다. 가력 초기에는 대부분의 하중을 직선구간의 부착에 의해 지지하였으나, 최대 하중의 1/3 지점부터 부착에 의한 기여도가 저감되기 시작하여 최대 하중에서는 대부분 갈고리 지압에 의해 하중을 지지하였다. 횡보강철근이 있는 실험체에서 [실험값]/[콘크리트구조기준 예측값] 비율의 평균이 1.45였다. 35 mm 초과 철근에 적용이 금지된 횡보강철근에 대한 보정계수 0.8을 적용하여도 안전한 갈고리 정착이 가능하다. 고강도콘크리트를 사용한 경우에는 [실험값]/[콘크리트구조기준 예측값]의 비율이 1.0로 다른 경우에 비해 안전율이 부족하였다. 콘크리트강도의 제곱근에 비례하는 콘크리트구조기준은 고강도 콘크리트에서 안전측이 아니므로 콘크리트 압축강도에 대한 영향을 저감시킬 필요가 있다. 실험결과를 회귀분석하여, 콘크리트 압축강도, 묻힘길이, 측면피복두께, 횡보강철근의 영향을 고려한 갈고리철근 정착강도 평가식을 개발하였다. 13개 실험데이터와 비교한 결과, [실험값]/[예측값] 비 평균이 1.0, 변동계수가 10%로 매우 정확히 강도를 예측하였다.

이 연구에서는 강섬유 혼입률과 주인장 철근의 정착 방법을 변수로 한 섬유보강 고강도 콘크리트 내민받침을 제작하고 구조실험을 실시하였다. 강섬유의 혼입, 강섬유 혼입률의 증가에 따라 고강도 콘크리트 내민받침의 내하력, 강성, 연성은 증가하는 것으로 나타났고, 최대 균열폭은 감소하였다. 또한, 횡방향 철근에 용접하여 주인장 타이 철근을 정착한 내민받침 보다 헤디드 바를 주인장 타이 철근으로 사용한 내민받침이 더 높은 내하력, 강성, 연성을 보였다. 따라서, 헤디드 바를 주인장 타이 철근으로 사용하고, 강섬유를 혼입함으로써 내민받침의 내하력, 내구성, 시공성 등을 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 실험 결과를 설계기준의 규준식 및 여러 연구자들이 제안한 예측모델과 비교한 결과, Fattuhi가 제안한 트러스 모델은 섬유 보강 고강도 콘크리트 내민받침의 강도를 잘 예측하는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper examined the impact of the cross-sectional structure on the structural results under different loading conditions of reinforced concrete (RC) members' management limited in Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRP). The mechanical properties of CFRC was investigated, then, totally 32 samples were examined. Test parameters included the cross-sectional shape as square, rectangular and circular with two various aspect rates and loading statues. The loading involved concentrated loading, eccentric loading with a ratio of 0.46 to 0.6 and pure bending. The results of the test revealed that the CFRP increased ductility and load during concentrated processing. A cross sectional shape from 23 to 44 percent was increased in load capacity and from 250 to 350 percent increase in axial deformation in rectangular and circular sections respectively, affecting greatly the accomplishment of load capacity and ductility of the concentrated members. Two Artificial Intelligence Models as Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) were used to estimating the tensile and flexural strength of specimen. On the basis of the performance from RMSE and RSQR, C-Shape CFRC was greater tensile and flexural strength than any other FRP composite design. Because of the mechanical anchorage into the matrix, C-shaped CFRCC was noted to have greater fiber-matrix interfacial adhesive strength. However, with the increase of the aspect ratio and fiber volume fraction, the compressive strength of CFRCC was reduced. This possibly was due to the fact that during the blending of each fiber, the volume of air input was increased. In addition, by adding silica fumed to composites, the tensile and flexural strength of CFRCC is greatly improved.

교량의 장대화로 고품질과 양호한 시공성을 갖는 고유동성 매스콘크리트가 프리스트레스 콘크리트 거더에 광범위하게 사용되고 있으나, 수화열과 자기수축에 의한 비구조균열을 종종 발생하고 있다. 대상부재의 콘크리트응력에 대한 다양한 실험과 수치해석을 통하여 평가로부터 메스콘크리트의 수화열 증가에 따라 인장응력 및 균열지수를 예측하였다. 또한 분체계 혼화재료에 의한 자기수축 증가는 정착부 부근 매스콘크리트의 인장응력을 가중시킨다. 수화열과 자기수축 및 건조수축에 의한 인장응력은 PSC 거더의 대부분에서 약간의 응력증가를 나타내나, 정착부 근처의 인장응력은 콘크리트의 재령초기에 인장강도를 초과하게 되어 균열을 유발하게 됨을 알 수 있었다.

The excavation broken zones (EBZ) of gateways is a significant factor in determining the stability of man-made opening. The EBZ of 55 gateways with variety geological conditions were measured using Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR). The results found that the greatly depth of EBZ, the smallest is 1.5 m and the deepest is 3.5 m. Experimental investigations were carried out in the laboratory and in the coal mine fields for applying the combined arch support theory to large EBZ. The studies found that resin bolts with high tensile strength and good bond force could provide high pretension force with bolt extensible anchorage method in the field. Furthermore, the recently invented torque amplifier could greatly improve the bolt pretension force in poor lithology. The FLAC3D numerical simulation found that the main diffusion sphere of pretension force was only in the free segment zone of the surrounding rock. Further analysis found that the initial load-bearing zone thickness of the combined arch structure in large EBZ could be expressed by the free segment length of bolt. The using of high mechanical property bolts and steel with high pretension force will clearly putting forward the bolt length selection rule based on the combined arch support theory.
