Many electric poles in the softground have been collapsed due to external load. In this study, 10 types of tests were performed with variation of location, numbers and depths of anchor blocks as well as depth of poles to find stresses acting on concrete electric poles. The stresses of concrete poles are relaxed at 600~700[kg] of tensile load, and stresses are concentrated at top of pole, and spread to lower part of pole. In the concrete pole collapse test, tensile load at failure was approximately 1,400[kg], which is twice of design load. As passive zone in the soil increases, the stresses acting on concrete pole are concentrated at lower part of pole based on moment arm earth pressure distribution.

In this study, the effect of external restraint on the thermal stresses and thermal cracking mode in mass concrete are analysed using the two major factors affecting external restraint such as the ratio of width go height of the placed structure (L/H) and the elastic modulus of base structure (E). For this parametric study, many cases with different values of L/H and Er are analysed by the FEM program and the co-relationship of the those major factors is examined. To evaluate the effect of external restraint on the thermal behavior of placing structure, internal restraint stress caused by temperature difference is subtracted from total thermal stress. In the case of small value of L/H or Er, it shows as internally restricted mode indicating maximum tensile stress in surface at early age, and the external restraint makes the possibility of thermal cracking higher. However, in the case of the large values of L/H and Er, the crack index at center is smaller than at surface due to the effect of external restraint. Thus, the initial location of the thermal crack is shifted from the surface to the center and the resulting crack is formed at later age.

최근 대규모화된 건축 구조물에서 매스콘크리트 형식의 구조체가 많이 적용됨에 따라 수화열에 의한 온도균열의 발생이 가장 큰 문제점으로 대두되고 있다. 매스콘크리트의 온도균열은 타설 후 시멘트의 수화열에 의한 온도상승 및 강하에 따라 생기는 체적변화가 내부 또는 외부적으로 구속을 받아 발생하는 것으로, 이를 제어하기 위한 수화열 저감대책이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 저발열배합 및 수화발열량차를 이용하여 분할타설된 매스콘크리트를 대상으로 양생조건에 따른 열전달계수 변화를 고려한 수화열 해석을 수행한다. 이를 위한 해석모델은 분할타설을 고려하여 상부층은 일반콘크리트를 타설하고 하부층은 저발열배합 콘크리트를 타설한다. 분할타설된 매스콘크리트는 외기노출 부분과 거푸집 부분, 양생조건부분이 다르기 때문에 그에 따른 대류경계조건을 설정한다. 이에 따라 저발열배합 및 분할타설, 열전달계수 변화 등을 고려한 수화열 해석결과를 통해 온도분포 및 응력분포를 확인하고, 온도균열저감효과를 분석한다.

Ground anchor expands the hollow wall of settled part and has the structure which resists the designed tensile load by the bearing pressure generated by the wedge of the anchor body pressing in the expanded part. Such ground anchor has been recognized for stability and economicality since 1960s in technologically advanced nations such as Japan and Europe, and in 1970s, the Japan Society of Soil Engineering has established and announced the anchor concept map. The ground anchor introduced in Korea, however, has the structural problem where the tensile strength is comes only from the ground frictional force due to expansion of the wedge body. In an interval where the ground strength is locally reduced due to fault, discontinuation or such, this is pointed out as a critical weakness where the anchor body of around 1.0m must resist the tensile load. Also, in the installation of concrete block, the concentrated stress of concrete block constructed on the uneven rock surface causes damage, and many such issues in the anchor head have been reported. Thus, in this study, by using the expanded bit for precise expansion of settled part, the ground anchor system was completed so that the bearing pressure of ground anchor can be expressed as much as possible, and the bearing plate was inserted into the ground to resolve the existing issues of concrete block. Through numerical analysis and pullout test executed for verification of site applicability, the pullout-behavior characteristics of anchor was analyzed.

This paper presents the details of finite element (FE) modeling and analysis of an external prestressing technique to strengthen a prestressed concrete (PSC) end block. Various methods of external prestressing techniques have been discussed. In the proposed technique, transfer of external force is in shear mode on the end block creating a complex stress distribution. The proposed technique is useful when the ends of the PSC girders are not accessible. Finite element modeling issues have been outlined. Brief description about material nonlinearity including key aspects in modeling inelastic behaviour has been provided. Finite element (FE) modeling including material, loading has been explained in depth. FE analysis for linear and nonlinear static analysis has been conducted for varying external loadings. Various responses such as out-of-plane deformation and slip have been computed and compared with the corresponding experimental observations. From the study, it has been observed that the computed slope and slip of the steel bracket under external loading is in good agreement with the corresponding experimental observations.

The larger, loftier and more highly strengthened the recent structures become, the greater attention is paid to the problem of thermal crack occurrence associate with hydration heat. As one of methods to solve the problem, a care has been taken to the improvement of construction such as the application of pre-cooling or pipe-cooling, adjustment of concrete block size, concrete placement timing, joint arrangement and so on. But it is expected that a proper selection of cement shall additionally contribute to the control of thermal cracks. In this study, thus, we selected 4 types of cements such as Type V for anti-sulphate, blast furnace cements (slag content of 45% and 65% respectively)and ternary blended low heat cement, and carried out mock-up tests. In every assigned time, temperatures and thermal stresses were measured and calculated from raw data. As a result of measurement, it was found that the magnitude of hydration heat is in order of blast furnace slag cement. Type V and ternary blended low heat cement. Results of thermal stresses were same as the order of temperature. In addition, thermal stresses calculated from the data of strain gauges showed almost similar to those measured from effective stress gauges only when strain values were adjusted properly in accordance with initial time of stress appearance. Theoretical results agreed well with the measured values comparatively, but showed slight differences. It is inferred that these differences shall be reduced if more tests capable of evaluating thermal characteristics of concrete are carried out.

앵커두부에서의 많은 문제점들은 앵커두부가 외부에 노출되어 풍화에 직접적인 영향을 받고, 진동이나 외력에 의해 물리적인 변형과 손상을 많이 받기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 기존 수압판 방식의 파괴원인을 분석하여 앵커두부에서 발생하는 문제점 해결을 위해 앵커두부의 지표면 근입방식을 제시하였다. 앵커두부처리 방식의 안정성을 기존방식과 비교, 검토하기 위하여 범용해석프로그램인 ABAQUS로 3차원 정밀 수치해석을 수행하여 하중조건에 따른 변위 및 응력분포양상을 분석하였고, 현장 적용성 검증을 위한 시험시공과 계측을 통해 적용 가능성을 평가하였다. 수치해석 결과는 최대수직응력이 9.73 MPa, 수직변위가 1.34 mm로 나타났고, 현장시험을 통하여 콘크리트 수압판의 변위가 근입형 지압판에 비해 3~4배의 큰 변위량을 보인다는 것을 확인하였다.

The determination of compressive zone at the critical section of concrete walls under in-plane flexure is important in both assessing the ductility and designing the seismic retrofit. Recognizing this, the once-predominated code approach to determine the compressive zone was advanced by considering concrete rectangular stress block parameters varying with the extreme fiber strain in compression. It is shown that the major factors influencing the magnitude of compressive zone are axial load ratio, concrete strength, longitudinal steel ratio, yield strength and the level of strain at extreme compression fiber of wall sections. The present paper closes with the discussion for the research agenda requiring further study to investigate the behavior of reinforced concrete walls.

This paper presents the details of studies conducted on hollow concrete block masonry (HCBM) units and wall panels. This study includes, compressive strength of unit block, ungrouted and grouted HCB prisms, flexural strength evaluation, testing of HCBM panels with and without opening. Non-linear finite element (FE) analysis of HCBM panels with and without opening has been carried out by simulating the actual test conditions. Constant vertical load is applied on the top of the wall panel and then lateral load is applied in incremental manner. The in-plane deformation is recorded under each incremental lateral load. Displacement ductility factors and response reduction factors have been evaluated based on experimental results. From the study, it is observed that fully grouted and partially reinforced HCBM panel without opening performed well compared to other types of wall panels in lateral load resistance and displacement ductility. In all the wall panels, shear cracks originated at loading point and moved towards the compression toe of the wall. The force reduction factor of a wall panel with opening is much less when compared with fully reinforced wall panel with no opening. The displacement values obtained by non-linear FE analysis are found to be in good agreement with the corresponding experimental values. The influence of mortar joint has been included in the stress-strain behaviour as a monolith with HCBM and not considered separately. The derived response reduction factors will be useful for the design of reinforced HCBM wall panels subjected to lateral forces generated due to earthquakes.
