The paper combines two distinct parts. First the behavior of welded headed studs with small diameters of 10 and 13 mm acting as shear connectors (which are not embraced in current standards) is studied. Based on standard push tests the load-slip relationships and strengths are evaluated. While the current standard (Eurocode 4 and AISC) formulas used for such studs give reasonable but too conservative strengths, less conservative and full load-slip rigidities are evaluated and recommended for a subsequent investigation or design. In the second part of the paper the partially encased beams under bending are analyzed. Following former experiments showing rather indistinct role of studs used for shear connection in such beams their role is studied. Numerical model employing ANSYS software is presented and validated using former experimental data. Subsequent parametric studies investigate the longitudinal shear between steel and concrete parts of the beams with respect to friction at the steel and concrete interface and contribution of studs with small diameters required predominantly for assembly stages (concreting). Substantial influence of the friction and effect of concrete confinement was observed with rather less noticeable contribution of the studs. Distribution of the longitudinal shear and its sharing between friction and studs is presented with concluding remarks.

The major objects of this study is to investigate experimentally the strengthening effects and post-failure behavior of reinforced concrete beam-columns with enlarged sections. Tests are carried out to evaluate the influences of axial load intensities, thickness of encased steel plates and reinforcing bars in the grouted parts on the structural behavior of the specimens. The test results show that the amount of reinforcing bars and thickness of steel plate significantly affect on the structural behavior. The ultimate moment capacities of reinforced concrete beam-columns encased with 2mm-thick steel plate are significantly increased to about 10 times of those of unstrengthened specimens.

Bending behavior of reinforced concrete slabs encased over shallow I-sections at different levels of compression heads were investigated in present study. 1500 mm long I-sections were used to create composite slabs. Compression heads of monolithic experimental members were encased at different levels into the concrete slabs. Shear connections were welded over some of the I-sections. The testing was carried out in accordance with the principles of four-point loading. Results revealed decreasing load bearing and deflection capacities of composite beams with increasing encasement depths into concrete. Mechanical properties of concrete and reinforcing steel were also examined. Resultant stresses calculated for composite beams at failure were found to be less than the yield strength of steel beams. Test results were discussed with regard to shear and slip effect.

A novel precast concrete-encased steel composite beam, which can be abbreviated as PCES beam, is introduced in this paper. In order to investigate the shear behavior of this PCES beam, a test of eight full-scale PCES beam specimens was carried out, in which the specimens were subjected to positive bending moment or negative bending moment, respectively. The factors which affected the shear behavior, such as the shear span-to-depth aspect ratio and the existence of concrete flange, were taken into account. During the test, the load-deflection curves of the test specimens were recorded, while the crack propagation patterns together with the failure patterns were observed as well. From the test results, it could be concluded that the tested PCES beams could all exhibit ductile shear behavior, and the innovative shear connectors between the precast concrete and cast-in-place concrete, namely the precast concrete transverse diaphragms, were verified to be effective. Then, based on the shear deformation compatibility, a theoretical model for predicting the shear capacity of the proposed PCES beams was put forward and verified to be valid with the good agreement of the shear capacities calculated using the proposed method and those from the experiments. Finally, in order to facilitate the preliminary design in practical applications, a simplified calculation method for predicting the shear capacity of the proposed PCES beams was also put forward and validated using available test results.

800MPa급 강재와 100MPa급 콘크리트를 적용한 매입형 합성기둥에 대하여 편심압축실험을 수행하였다. 강재단면의 모멘트팔길이와 변형(응력)을 증가시켜 고강도강재의 성능활용을 극대화할 수 있도록, ㄱ형 강재단면을 네 모서리에 집중 배치한 후, 래티스철근, 링크철근, 띠판을 이용하여 일체화하였다. 이 경우 강재단면의 강력한 횡구속효과로 인해 심부콘크리트의 성능도 개선된다. 실험결과 ㄱ형 강재 매입형 기둥은 H형 강재 매입형 기둥에 비하여 최대강도와 유효휨강성이 1.4배 이상 증가하였다.

In this research, the gene expression programming (GEP) technique was employed to provide a new model for predicting the maximum loading capacity of concrete-encased steel (CES) columns. This model was developed based on 96 CES column specimens available in the literature. The six main parameters used in the model were the compressive strength of concrete (f_c), yield stress of structural steel (f_ys), yield stress of steel rebar (f_yr), and cross-sectional areas of concrete, structural steel, and steel rebar (A_c, A_s and A_r respectively). The performance of the prediction model for the ultimate load-carrying capacity was investigated using different statistical indicators such as root mean square error (RMSE), correlation coefficient (R), mean absolute error (MAE), and relative square error (RSE), the corresponding values of which for the proposed model were 620.28, 0.99, 411.8, and 0.01, respectively. Here, the predictions of the model and those of available codes including ACI ITG, AS 3600, CSA-A23, EN 1994, JGJ 138, and NZS 3101 were compared for further model assessment. The obtained results showed that the proposed model had the highest correlation with the experimental data and the lowest error. In addition, to see if the developed model matched engineering realities and corresponded to the previously developed models, a parametric study and sensitivity analysis were carried out. The sensitivity analysis results indicated that the concrete cross-sectional area (A_c) has the greatest effect on the model, while parameter (f_yr) has a negligible effect.

강-콘크리트 합성보에서 강과 콘크리트 사이의 불완전 합성거동은 완전 합성보에 비해서 처짐이 매우 증가하게 된다. 특히, 춤이 깊은 데크 및 속 빈 PC슬래브 등을 사용한 매립형 합성보의 경우, 자체의 형상에 기인하여 처짐에 매우 취약하다. 본 연구에서는 기존 연구에서 유도한 슬립효과를 고려한 처짐 계산법 및 실험으로부터 구한 하중-슬립 관계로부터 매립형 합성보의 전단부착응력 및 슬립에 의한 추가 처짐 값을 제시하였다. 매립형 합성보의 처짐에 미치는 슬립의 영향은 완전 합성보의 강성 값에 비해 약 30%정도 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 실험 및 예측 값의 비교결과, 6%내외의 오차로 비교적 좋은 결과를 나타내었다.

To investigate the compressive behavior of partially encased recycled aggregate concrete (PERAC) stub columns after exposed to elevated temperatures, 22 specimens were tested. The maximum temperature suffered, the replacement ratio of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA), the endurance time and the spacing between links were considered as the main parameters. It was found that the failure mode of post-heated PERAC columns generally matched that of traditional partially encased composite (PEC) columns, but the flange of specimens appeared premature buckling after undergoing the temperature of 400℃ and above. Additionally, the ultimate strength and ductility of the specimens deteriorated with the elevated temperatures and extended heating time. When 400℃< T ≤ 600℃, the strength reduction range is the largest, about 11% ~ 17%. The higher the replacement ratio of RCA, the lower the ultimate strength of specimens. At the temperature of 600℃, the ultimate strength of specimens with the RCA replacement ratio of 50% and 100% is 0.94 and 0.91 times than that of specimens without RCA, respectively. But the specimen with 50% replacement ratio of RCA showed the best ductility performance. And the bearing capacity and ductility of PERAC stub columns were changed for the better due to the application of links. When the RCA replacement ratio is 100%, the ultimate strength of specimens with the link spacing of 100 mm and 50 mm increased 14% and 25% than that of the specimen without links, respectively. Based on the results above, a formula for calculating the ultimate strength of PERAC stub columns after exposure to high temperatures was proposed.

현재 개발된 콘크리트 충전 대골형 파형 강판은 아치형 플레이트의 구조로서 그 특징은 구조물이 아치의 형상을 가지므로 모멘트가 작게 발생하는 압축력 지배구조의 구조적 특성을 가지게 되며 이에 따라 강재를 덧대 준공된 공간을 압축력에 유리한 콘크리트를 충전 강재 콘크리트 합성단면을 형성하여 압축력에 대한 강도 발현증대를 목적으로 한다. 이 연구에서는 새로운 개념의 콘크리트 충전 대골형 파형강판(브릿지 플레이트) 부재의 압축 및 휨 시험을 실시하여 평가된 압축력과 콘크리트 충전 브릿지 플레이트 구조물의 설계방법인 캐나다 도로교설계기준(CHBDC)의 방법으로 설계압축력을 산정하여 비교 검토함으로서 새로운 개념의 콘크리트 충전 브릿지 플레이트 부재의 안전율을 평가하였다. 설계압축력과 성능평가 시험을 통하여 얻어진 축력을 비교하여 안전율을 검토한 결과 적정 안전율 2.0이상 과도하게 나타나 CHCBD을 이용한 설계가 매우 보수적으로 평가되고 있으며, 이 연구 결과를 바탕으로 안전율을 설계에 반영한다면, 단면축소 및 시공비용 절감에 따른 경제적인 시공이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
