Non-seismically designed eccentric reinforced concrete beam-column joints were extensively used in existing reinforced concrete frame buildings, which were found to be vulnerable to seismic action in many incidences. To provide a fundamental understanding of the seismic performance and failure mechanism of the joints, three 2/3-scale exterior beam-column joints with non-seismically designed details were cast and tested under reversed cyclic loads simulating earthquake excitation. In this investigation, particular emphasis was given on the effects of the eccentricity between the centerlines of the beam and the column. It is shown that the eccentricity had significant effects on the damage characteristics, shear strength, and displacement ductility of the specimens. In addition, shear deformation and the strain of joint hoops were found to concentrate on the eccentric face of the joint. The results demonstrated that the specimen with an eccentricity of 1/4 column width failed in a brittle manner with premature joint shear failure, while the other specimens with less or no eccentricity failed in a ductile manner with joint shear failure after beam flexural yielding. Test results are compared with those predicted by three seismic design codes and two non-seismic design codes. In general, the codes do not accurately predict the shear strength of the eccentric joints with non-seismic details.

At the onset of corrosion of steel in concrete, hydrogen ions usually evolve in the process of electrochemical reaction, thereby decreasing the pH of the pore solution, which can be buffered by cement hydration products, as being representatively illustrated by calcium hydroxide. Hence, a fall in the pH is dependent on properties of cement hydration (i.e. hydration products and degree of hydration). The present study tested acid neutralization capacity (ANC) of cementitious binders of OPC(Ordinary Portland Cement), 30% PFA(Pulverized Fuel Ash), 60% GGBS(Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag), 10% SF(Silica Fume) to quantify the resistance of cement matrix to a pH fall. Cement pastes were cast at 0.4 of a free W/C ratio with 1.5% chlorides by weight of binder in cast. Powder samples obtained crushed and ground specimen after 200 days of curing were diluted in still water combined with different levels of 1M nitric acid solution, ranging from 0.5 to 20 mol/kg. Then, the pH of diluted solution was monitored until any further change in the pH did not take place. It was seen that the pH of the diluted solution gradually decreased as the molar amount of nitric acid increased. At some particular values of the pH, however, a decrease in the pH was marginal, which can be expressed in the peak resistances to a pH fall in the ANC curve. The peaks occurred at the variations in the pH, depending on binder type, but commonly at about 12.5 in the pH, indicate a resistance of precipitated calcium hydroxide. The measurement of water soluble chloride at the end of test showed that the amount of free chloride was significantly increased at the pH corresponding to the peaks in the ANC curve, which may reflect the adsorption of hydration products to chlorides.

콘크리트 장기변형이 합성단면과 부재의 경계조건에 의해 내 외부 구속된 구조물에 단계별계산법(SSM)을 적용하 기위해 축-휨 요소가 적용된 객체지향 전산구조해석 프로그램이 개발되었다. 단순 및 연속 지지된 PS 콘크리트 박스 및 합성거더, 연속 강합성거더의 조립식 바닥판, 단순 프리플렉스 합성거더에 대한 SSM의 전산구조해석 결과 구속정도가 클수록 수정계수는 감소하였다. 수정계수의 감소에 대해 선인장의 손실률에는 큰 변화가 없으나, 선압축의 손실률은 급격히 증가하였다. 연속보의 내부지점에서 선압축의 손실률은 더욱 증가하였다. 이는 선인장의 손실에 기초한 설계는 내 외부 구속 정도가 큰 구조물에 대한 선압축의 손실을 과소평가할 수 있음을 보여준다. 전산구조해석을 만족하는 크리프의 수정계수는 0.35~0.95의 값이었으며, 수정 계수는 콘크리트 장기변형의 내 외부 구속의 정도를 나타내는 지표로 사용될 수 있다. 도로교설계기준의 수정계수 0.5는 긴장력이 도입된 강합성단면의 조립식 바닥판에 대해서는 부적절하며, 2007년 도입된 AASHTO LRFD 도로교설계기준(2008)과 한계상태에 대한 도로교설계기준의 긴장력 손실에 적용된 수정계수 0.7과 0.8은 PS 콘크리트 합성거더의 연속화에 대한 손실률을 과소평가한다. 복합구조 합성단면의 수정계수는 0.4 이하의 값이 적절하다.

This paper analysed the effect on Heunginjimun of ground vibrations due to C.I.P. works during Heunginjimun restoration period. Vibration criteria and laws for historic structures was investigated. The vibration was measured under test construction in the field, analysed and evaluated. Because the ground vibration exceeded the vibration criteria, the restoration construction could not be go along. But as vibration was transferred to the upper structures, it was confirmed that vibration levels declined, because of differences between natural and forced frequencies. If the natural frequencies database of historic structures are established, it will help with management and preservation of cultural properties by an environmental vibration effects evaluation.

To purpose of this research is to develop the numerical model for simulating performance of ground heat exchanger with high prediction accuracy. This paper describes the development of a numerical model that simulates the heat transfer between ground and circulation water in ground heat exchanger. Furthermore, we propose the estimating technique of soil properties, such as thermal conductivity, heat capacity and hydraulic conductivity, based on ground investigation. Comparison between experiment and numerical analysis based on the model developed above was conducted under the condition of the experiment in 2004. The result of analysis agreed well with the experimental result.

A reinforced concrete (RC) cast-in-place (CIP) infill wall retrofitting method may provide an improved seismic performance and economical efficiency for the non-ductile rahmen structures. In this study, four one story-one bay non-ductile frame were constructed and retrofitted with CIP infill wall to evaluate seismic performance of CIP infill wall-frame. From the test results, infill wall-frame exhibited a marked increase in shear strength compared to non-ductile RC frame specimen. But the ductility and story-drift at maximum load were decreased when shear strength of infill wall larger than that of existing RC frame. Therefore, it is confirmed that adequate reinforcement detail is required to assure sufficient seismic performance.

The populations of major cities in Australia are increasing rapidly and facing an acute housing shortage. Traditional apartment procurement techniques involve lengthy lead-times and factory-based, or offsite manufactured (OSM) multi-storey apartment buildings may offer the opportunity to help fulfill the need by significantly reducing build times. Other advantages of OSM may include superior quality, low weight ratios, economies of scale achieved through repetition of prefabricated units, use on infill sites, sustainable design standards and better occupational health and safety. There are also positive labour and training implications, which may help to alleviate an industry-wide shortage of skills through use of semi-skilled labour. Previous uncertainties about the adoption of offsite due to the high capital costs and perception issues were generally based on pre-cast concrete structures, which are quite a different building type in terms of flexibility, construction, delivery and finishes. Identification of drivers and constraints assists in the determination of current industry status, allows for a benchmark to be established and future opportunities and directions for OSM to be determined.

The chloride threshold level (CTL) in mixed concrete containing, ordinary Portland cement (OPC), pulverized fuel ash (PFA) ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS), and silica fume (SF) is important for study on corrosion of reinforced concrete structures. The CTL is defined as a critical content of chloride at the steel depth of the steel which causes the breakdown of the passive film. The criterion of the CTL represented by total chloride content has been used due to convenience and practicality. In order to demonstrate a relationship between the CTL by total chloride content and the CTL by free chloride content, corrosion test and chloride binding capacity test were carried out. In corrosion test, Mortar specimens were cast using OPC, PFA, GGBS and SF, chlorides were admixed ranging 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0% by weight of binder. All specimens were cured 28 days, and then the corrosion rate was measured by the Tafel's extrapolation method. In chloride binding capacity, paste specimens were casting using OPC, PFA, GGBS and SF, chlorides were admixed ranging 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0% by weight of binders. At 28days, solution mixed with the powder of ground specimens was used to measure binding capacity. All specimens of both experiments were wrapped in polythene film to avoid leaching out of chloride and hydroxyl ions. As a result, the CTL by total chloride content ranged from 0.36-1.44% by weight of binders and the CTL by free chloride content ranged from 0.14-0.96%. Accordingly, the difference was ranging, from 0.22 to 0.48% by weight of binder. The order of difference for binder is OPC > 10% SF > 30% PFA > 60% GGBS.

최근에 콘크리트옹벽의 경우 현장제작 방식에서 프리캐스트 생산에 의한 현장 조립방식으로 기술적 변화가 시도되고 있다. 프리캐스트 옹벽을 상부와 하부로 나누어 각각 생산한 후에 현장에서 조립되는 방법이 사용되고 있다. 그러나, 비교적 높은 부벽식옹벽에 토압이 작용하면 조립부분이 파손될 수 있으며, 대형 재난으로 이어질 수 있다는 문제점이 지적되어 왔다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 프리캐스트 조인트방법(PC joint method)을 사용한 부벽식 옹벽의 구조적 안정성에 대하여 수치해석적 방법으로 분석하였다. 3가지 높이의 옹벽(7.6m, 8.5m, 10m)에 대하여 배면 토압에 대한 구조적 안정성에 대하여 분석하였다. 옹벽콘크리트에 가해지는 최대 주응력은 23.3~43.2 MPa로서 앵커의 정착주변에서 국부적으로 발생하는 것으로 분석되었다.

최근 들어, 모듈화된 건축물에 프리캐스트 콘크리트와 현장콘크리트를 합성한 복합화 공법사용이 증가하고 있다. 일반적으로 프리캐스트 콘크리트 부재는 공장에서 선제작된 PC부재에 휨 전단 성능 향상을 위한 프리텐션 도입이 가능하다. 현행구조 기준에서는 긴장력이 가해진 단일 단면의 전단강도식은 제시하지만, 프리캐스트 콘크리트와 현장 콘크리트 합성 단면의 수직 전단 강도식은 제시하지 못하고 있다. 이전 연구에서는 수직전단 보강이 없는 프리스트레스트 콘크리트와 현장타설 콘크리트 합성보의 전단 강도에 대하여 분석하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수직 전단 보강된 프리스트레스트 콘크리트와 현장타설 콘크리트 합성보의 전단 강도 실험을 통하여 합성보 설계시 고려해야할 사항에 대하여 알아보았다. 변수로는 콘크리트의 면적비, 긴장재의 긴장력, 전단경간비, 그리고 전단철근비를 고려하였다. 실험 결과, 전단 강도는 긴장력이 가해진 단면적의 면적비, 긴장재의 긴장응력에 비례하여 증가하였고 전단 경간비가 증가할수록 감소하였다. 또한 압축대 콘크리트 강도에 따른 전단철근의 기여도 차이를 보였다.
