이 연구에서는 형상기억합금과 강재로 구속된 콘크리트의 부착응력을 외부자켓의 구속비 및 강도비를 이용하여 분석하였다. 이를 위해서 직경 1.0 mm 형상기억합금 와이어와 두께 1.0 mm와 1.5 mm 강판을 사용하여, 구속비 및 강도비의 차이를 유발하여 각 변수의 차이에 따른 부착강도 및 부착거동을 분석하였다. 외부자켓 구속에 의해서 콘크리트의 부착강도는 증가하였으며, 파괴형태도 쪼갬파괴에서 뽑힘파괴로 전환되어 구속효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 콘크리트 부착강도는 구속비와 강도비가 증가함에 따라 증가하는 현상을 보이지만, 특정 시점부터는 부착강도가 거의 증가하지 않고 일정한 값을 나타내는 결과를 보였다. 그러나 강도비의 증가에 따라 발생하는 원주방향 최대 변형율은 거의 선형적으로 감소하는 결과를 보였다.

FRP 자켓으로 콘크리트를 보강하는 경우 FRP의 탄성계수에 따라 강도증진효과가 상이하게 나타난다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 데이터를 사용하여 FRP 보강재의 탄성계수에 따른 보강효과를 분석하고, 실용적으로 사용할 수 있는 강도증진 추정모델을 제시하였다. FRP의 탄성계수는 일반 콘크리트의 압축탄성계수와 강재의 탄성계수를 기준으로 세 구간으로 구분하여 비교하였다. FRP의 탄성계수가 증가할수록 추정모델의 기울기 및 y-절편이 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, FRP의 탄성계수가 콘크리트의 압축탄성계수보다 작은 경우 FRP의 보강량이 작으며 보강효과가 없는 것으로 나타났으며, 이러한 경우 선형적인 모델을 사용하기 어렵다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 FRP의 탄성계수가 콘크리트 압축탄성계수보다 약 2배 큰 것만을 사용하는 경우의 보강효과 추정모델을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 모델은 y-절편의 구속조건 여부와 상관없이 거의 동일한 결과를 보여 주었으며, 이러한 특징은 강재보강에서도 발견되는 것으로 합리적인 결과라고 판단할 수 있다.

콘크리트 충전 강관 기둥은 축하중 재하시 콘크리트에 구속응력이 발생함에 따라 콘크리트의 강도가 증가한다. 콘크리트의 강도 증가분은 발생된 구속응력의 크기에 종속되므로 비선형 해석을 통하여 원형 콘크리트 충전 강관의 축방향 하중에 대한 최대 저항능력을 산정하였다. 콘크리트의 포아송비 및 응력-변형률 관계와 같은 비선형 재료 특성을 고려하였으며, 강관의 다축 항복조건을 기준으로 최대 구속응력을 산정하였다. 실험 결과와의 비교를 통하여 제안된 모델을 검증하였으며, 회귀분석을 통하여 D/t 비율 및 재료성질에 따른 최대 구속응력 산정법을 단순화하였다. Eurocode 4 설계 기준 및 기존에 제안된 다양한 경험식과의 비교를 통하여 제안된 회귀분석식의 타당성을 검증하였다.

Due to the confinement effects, Steel-Straps Tensioning Technique (SSTT) can significantly enhance the strength and ductility of high-strength concrete (HSC) members (Moghaddam et al. 2008). However, the enhancement especially in strength may result in slender member and more susceptible to instability (Jiang and Teng 2012a). This instability is particularly significant in HSC member as it inherent the brittle nature of the material (Galano et al. 2008). The current slenderness limit expression used in the design is mainly derived from the experiment and analysis results based on Normal strength concrete (NSC) column and therefore the direct application of these slenderness limit expressions to the HSC column is being questioned. Besides, a particular slenderness limit for the SSTT-confined HSC column which incorporated the pre-tensioned force and multilayers effects is not yet available. Hence, an analytical study was carried out in the view of developing a simple equation in order to determine the slenderness limit for HSC column confined with SSTT. Based on the analytical results, it was concluded that the existing slenderness limit expressions used in the design are appropriate for neither HSC columns nor SSTT-confined HSC columns. In this paper, a slenderness limit expression which has incorporated the SSTT-confinement effects is proposed. The proposed expression can also be applied to unconfined HSC columns.

The use of external carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates is one of the most effective techniques existing for the confinement of circular concrete specimens. Currently, several researches have been made to develop models for predicting the ultimate conditions of this type of confinement. As most of the major existing models were developed based on limited experimental database. This paper presents the development of new confinement ultimate conditions, strength and strain models, for concrete cylinders confined with CFRP composites based on a statistical analysis of a large existing experimental database of 310 cylindrical concrete specimens wrapped with CFRP. The database is used to evaluate the performance of the proposed and major existing strength and strain models. Based on the two different statistical indices, the coefficient of determination ($R^2$) and the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), the two proposed confinement ultimate conditions presents a good performance compared to the major existing models except the models of Lam and Teng (2003) and Youssef et al. (2007) which have relatively similar performance to the proposed models.

The amount and configuration of transverse reinforcement are known as critical parameters that significantly affect the lateral confinement of concrete, the ductility capacity, and the plastic hinge length of RC columns. Based on test results, this study investigated the effect of the three variables on structural indexes such as neutral axis depth, lateral expansion of concrete, and ductility capacity. Five reinforced concrete column specimens were tested under cyclic flexure and shear while simultaneously subjected to a constant axial load. The columns were reinforced by two types of reinforcing steel: rectangular hoops and spiral type reinforcing bars. The variables in the test program were the shape, diameter, and yield strength of transverse reinforcement. The interactive influence of the amount of transverse reinforcement on the structural indexes was evaluated. Test results showed that when amounts of transverse reinforcement were similar, and yield strength of transverse reinforcement was 600 MPa or less, the neutral axis depth of a column with spiral type reinforcing bars was reduced by 28% compared with that of a column reinforced by existing rectangular hoops at peak strength. While the diagonal elements of spiral-type reinforcing bars significantly contributed to the lateral confinement of concrete, the strain of diagonal elements decreased with increases of their yield strength. It was confirmed that shapes of transverse reinforcement significantly affected the lateral confinement of concrete adjacent to plastic hinges. Transverse reinforcement with a yield strength exceeding 600 MPa, however, increased the neutral axis depth of normal-strength concrete columns at peak strength, resulting in reductions in ductility and energy dissipation capacity.

In order to investigate the seismic performance of regionally confined concrete circular column with trapezoid stirrups (TRCCC) under high axial compression ratio, the confinement mechanism of regionally confined concrete was analyzed. Three regionally confined concrete circular columns with trapezoid stirrups were designed, and low cyclic loading tests were conducted at three different axial compression ratios (0.9, 1.1, 1.25) to study the failure mode, hysteresis curve, skeleton curve, deformation capacity, stiffness degradation and energy dissipation capacity of the specimens. The results indicate that the form of regional confinement concrete provides more uniform confinement to the normal confinement, and the confinement efficiency at the edges is 1.4 times that of normal confined concrete. The ductility coefficients of the specimens were all greater than 3 under high axial compression ratios, and the stiffness and horizontal bearing capacity increased with the increase of axial compression ratio. Therefore, it is recommended that the code of design specifications can appropriately relax the axial compression ratio limit for TRCCC. Finally, the spacing between stirrups of TRCCC was analyzed using ABAQUS software. The results showed that as the spacing between the stirrups decreased, the cracking load and peak load of TRCCC increased continuously, but the rate of increase decreases.

This paper presents the analytical modeling and finite element (FE) analysis, using ABAQUS software, of the new types of steel reinforced lightweight aggregate concrete (SRLAC) columns with cross-shaped (+shaped and X-shaped) steel section, using proposed three analytical and two FE models in total. The stress-strain material models for different components in the columns, including the confined zones of the lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC) using three and four concrete zones divisions approaches and with and without taking into account the stirrups reaction effect, are established first. The analytical models for determining the axial load-deformation behavior of the SRLAC columns are drawn based on the materials models. The analytical and FE models' results are compared with previously reported test results of the axially loaded SRLAC columns. The proposed analytical and FE models accurately predict the axial behavior and capacities of the new types of SRLAC columns with acceptable agreements for the load-displacement curves. The LWAC strength, steel section ratio, and steel section configuration affect the contact stress between the concrete and steel sections. The average ratios of the ultimate test load to the three analytical models and FEA model loads, Put /Pa1, Put /Pa2, Put /Pa3, and Put /PFE1, for the tested specimens are 0.96, 1.004, 1.016, and 1.019, respectively. Finally, the analytical parametric studies are also studied, in terms of the effects of confinement, LWAC strength, steel section ratio, and the reinforcement ratio on the axial capacity of the SRLAC column. When concrete strength, confinements, area of steel sections, or reinforcement bars ratio increased, the axial capacities increased.

In the recent decades, the application of composite materials, due to their desirable properties, has increased dramatically. In the present study, a quasi-encased trapezoidal section composite steel beam encased with concrete is thoroughly examined. Calculation of the load bearing capacity is carried out by finite element modeling of concrete and FRP beams with trapezoidal section under the effect of controlled displacement loading. The results are then validated comparing to the existing experimental results obtained from similar studies. Further on, the materials are changed to steel and concrete, and the section is de-signed in such a way that both concrete and steel reach a high percent-age of their load bearing capacity. In the last step, the parameters affecting the bending capacity and the behavior of the semi-confined composite beam are investigated. Results revealed that the beam diagonal web thickness plays the most effective role in load bearing capacity amongst other studied parameters. Furthermore, by analyzing the results on the effect of different parameters, an optimal model for primary beam section is presented, which exhibits a greater load bearing capacity compared to the initial design with the same amount of materials used for both sections.
