Dynamic properties of hydraulic mechanically stabilized slag(HMS25) was studied for utilizing it as a roadbed material. HMS25 is a by product material during pig iron production process. It has a very good potential application as a roadbed material. Therefore, the resonant column and torsional shear tests were carried out to evaluate the dynamic properties of HMS25 which are necessary for designing roadbed of railroad track. As a result, it was found that HMS25 has excellent dynamic properties required for roadbed material used in railroad track.

The effects of fermentor types on biopolymer production with Cordyceps militaris has been studied in this articles. Since the shear stresses of stirred tank ferementor and bubble column fermentor were different, the mycelium growth and biopolymer production were different. The mycerial growth was high with the bubble column fermentor for the early stage but biopolymer production was lower than that with stirred tank fermentor. The production of biopolymer was closely related to shear stress to the cells and biopolymer production was increased with increased shear stress.

For the ground resrxmse analysis, both in-situ and laboratory testing techniques such as downhole, SASW, resonant column and torsional shear tests were perlormed for Hong-Seong area. The grOlmd upper 30m is classified as SD since it has an average shear wave velocity as 209m/s. The response specLrums obtained by site-specific analyses generally satisfied the seismic code, but near the resonance period the motion was evaluated to be higher than the code.

Recently the construction of high-rise reinforced concrete building is progressively increased as the social demands. It is significantly important factors such as economy, the safety of structure, and the flexibility of internal space. Therefore new structural system is also required to be attained the reduction of story height, the flexibility and efficient use of space. The most suitable structural system is with the economy and flexibility, flat plate slab system in high-rise reinforced concrete building. In this research, it was focused in the improvement of shear performance in the flat plate system using high ductile fiber reinforced mortar. It was evaluated the shear performance in the critical region of slab-column connection. The flat plate system, designed by the high performance and safety, was developed as a new technique in the application of high-rise R/C building.

An experimental study was conducted to study the behavior of slab-column connections under lateral load. Test variables include gravity shear ratio$(V_g/V_o=0.3,\;0.5)$ and flexural reinforcement ratio of slab(p=0.01, 0.015). Strength and ductility of tested specimens were evaluated in accordance with gravity shear ratios and slab reinforcement ratios. Shear stresses of Code's equation at the critical section were also compared with experimental results.

Recently, post tension flat plate slab system is widely used for a new slab structural system. Slab-column connections may fail in brittle manner by punching shear. Flat plate slabs have been widely used for gravity load resisting system in buildings. Lateral resistance usually provided by shear walls or moment resisting frames. Since plat plates move together with lateral loading system during earthquake or wind, it is important to evaluate the gravity resistance under a drift experienced by lateral force resisting system during either design earthquake or wind. Thus, this study investigated post tension flat plate slab systems whether they have sufficient strength and deformability to resist gravity loads during specified drift levels. Experimental research was carried out.

Reinforced concrete bridge columns with relatively small aspect ratio show flexure-shear behavior, which is flexural behavior at initial and medium displacement stages and shear failure at final stage. Since the columns with flexure-shear failure have lower ductility than those with flexural failure, shear capacity curve models shall be applied as well as flexural capacity curve in order to determine ultimate displacement for seismic design or performance evaluation. In this paper, a modified shear capacity curve model is proposed and compared with the other models such as the CALTRANS model, Aschheim et al.'s model, and Priestley et al.'s model. Four shear capacity curve models are applied to the 4 full scale circular bridge column test results and the accuracy of each model is discussed. It may not be fully adequate to drive a final decision from the application to the limited number of test results, however the proposed model provides the better prediction of failure mode and ultimate displacement than the other models for the selected column test results.

In order to attain enhanced seismic performance of RC bridges, premature shear failure prior to the achievement of target ductilities of the piers should be prevented. For this purpose, a reliable shear strength evaluation is required. The shear strength of an RC column subjected to a lateral force decreases with an increase in ductility. Many empirical equations for the shear strength have been proposed by many researchers. However, there are many discrepancies in the initial shear strength in the low ductility range, and in the decrease rate according to the ductility. In this study, a new empirical equation of shear strength considering the displacement ductility effect has been proposed, in which the initial shear strength equation proposed by the authors was revised on the basis of the investigation of many other researchers' test results. The resulting improvement in accuracy is confirmed by comparison with other empirical equations.

Most connections for the glulam structural members consisted of connector and fastener. The mechanical behaviour of the connection can be occurred by the dowel bearing resistance and wood shear by the fastener. This study aims at the examination of the shear properties for the small specimen with lamination components and for the full-sized pin connection and the moment resisting property for the double shear full-sized pin connection using structural column and beam members. Small specimens including glue line shows greater density and shear strength by the lamination effect than other specimens. It is needed that estimations of double shear property and moment resistance for the pin connections should be adjusted in some degree. For the better and safe estimation of moment resistance strength for the column-beam pin connection, however, the shear strength of small specimens should be deducted by 10%.

As a part of a research program to study the shear reinforcement of flat plate system, this investigation aimed to determine the effect of shear reinforcement type on punching shear strength of monolithic slab-column connection. A total of 5 specimens were fabrication and tested. The dimension of the slab were $2.63{\ast}2.725{\ast}0.18m$, with a centrally located column $0.6{\ast}0.8m$ in cross section. Experimental results showed that the CFS shear reinforcement was not effective because of lack of proper bond with concrete. 3 shear reinforcement except of CFS showed high effectiveness, which resulted in a considerable increment of the punching shear resistance of the connection.
