This paper presents a plan and guidelines that were drawn for Korean based research carried out on the fire-resistance of CFT columns. This research was carried out by reviewing the Korean regulations related to the fire-resistance of CFT columns and examining studies which had been made in Korea as well as overseas. The first phase of the study plan was to compare the fire-resistance of square CFT columns without fire protection (obtained through fire-resistance tests and numerical analyses) with estimated values (obtained through fire-resistance design formulas proposed in Korea and overseas). This comparison provided conclusions as outlined below. Fire-resistance tests conducted in this study proved that, when the actual design load is taken into consideration, square CFT columns without fire protection are able to resist a fire for more than one hour. A comparison was made of test and analysis results with the fire-resistance time based on the AIJ code, the AISC design formula and the estimation formula suggested for Korea. The results of this comparison showed that the test and analysis results for specimens SAH1, SAH2-1, SAH2-2 and SAH3 were almost identical with the AIJ code, the AISC design formula and estimation formula. For specimens SAH4 and SAH5, the estimation formula was more conservative than the AIJ code and the AISC design formula. It was necessary to identify the factors that have an influence on the fire-resistance of CFT columns without fire protection and to draw fire-resistance design formulas for these columns. To achieve this, it is proposed that numerical analyses and tests be conducted in order to evaluate the fire-resistance of circular CFT columns, the influence of eccentricity existing as an additional factor and the influence of the slenderness ratio of the columns. It is also suggested that the overall behavior of CFT structures without fire protection within a fire be evaluated through analysis simulation.

본 연구에서는 콘크리트충전 원형강관(원형 CFT)기둥의 내화성능을 평가하기 위하여 수치해석을 수행하였다. 강관은 SPSR 400 강재를 사용하였으며 강관 내에는 27.5MPa와 37.8MPa 강도의 콘크리트를 사용하였다. 콘크리트 강도, 작용 축력, 단면 직경을 변수로 설정하였다. 수치해석의 정확성을 검증하기 위하여, 기존의 각국 내화성능설계식들에 의한 계산 결과값과 비교 평가 하였다. 또한, 기존의 실대 원형 CFT기둥의 내화성능 평가 실험 결과와 함께 비교 분석하여 수치해석의 타당성을 검증하였다. 원형 CFT기둥의 내화실험 및 수치해석적 연구를 통해 도출된 내화저항시간과 축력비, 단면직경, 콘크리트 강도의 영향을 각형 CFT기둥의 내화성능과 비교 분석하여 각 영향인자들의 영향을 평가하였다. 본 연구의 수치해석적 연구는 실험결과와 비슷한 거동 및 내화성능을 보였다. 따라서 본 연구에서의 수치해석에 의한 CFT기둥의 내화 성능 예측은 타당하다고 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 감육결함이 가공된 실배관 곡관 시편을 대상으로 10 MPa의 내압과 반복 굽힘하중 조건에서 피로 시험을 수행하였다. 시험에는 감육결함이 곡관의 외호부와 내호부에 존재하는 경우를 고려하였으며, 반복 하중으로는 완전 역방향의 변위제어 형태로 작용되는 In-plane 상의 굽힘하중이 고려되었다. 실험 결과, 감육결함이 곡관의 외호부에 존재하는 경우에는 결함부가 아닌 곡관의 측면에서 축방향 균열이 생성되었다. 또한, ASME Sec.III의 설계 피로곡선에서 예측된 건전 곡관의 피로수명보다 긴 피로수명을 보였으며, 피로수명이 결함 길이에 크게 영향을 받지 않았다. 반면, 결함이 내호부에 존재하는 곡관은 내호부에서 원주방향 균열이 발생하였으며, 피로수명은 ASME Sec.III의 설계 피로곡선에서 예측한 건전 곡관의 피로수명보다 짧은 값을 보였다. 또한, 내호부 감육 곡관의 피로수명은 결함 길이가 감소함에 따라 뚜렷이 감소하였다.

In this study, effect of recycled aggregates and polypropylene fibers on the response of conventionally reinforced concrete element subjected to tensile loading in terms of tension stiffening and strain development was experimentally investigated. For this purpose, concrete prisms of 100 × 100 mm cross section and 500 mm length having one central deformed steel re-bar were cast using fibrous and non-fibrous Recycled Aggregate Concrete (RAC) with varying percentages of recycled aggregates (0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%) and tested under uniaxial tensile load. For all fibrous RAC mixes, polypropylene fibers were used at constant dosage of 3.15 kg/㎥. Effect of recycled aggregates and fibers on the compressive strength of concrete was also explored in this study. Through studying tensile load versus global axial deformation of composite and strain development in concrete and steel, it was found that replacement of natural aggregates with recycled aggregates in concrete negatively affected the cracking load, tension stiffening and strain development, and this negative effect was observed to be increased with increasing contents of recycled aggregates in concrete. The results of this study showed that it was possible to minimize the negative effect of recycled aggregates in concrete by the addition of polypropylene fibers. Reinforced concrete element constructed using concrete containing 50% recycled aggregates and polypropylene fibers exhibited cracking behavior, tension stiffening and strain development response almost similar to that of concrete element constructed using natural aggregate concrete without fiber.

It is important to obtain reasonable predictions of the extent of the damage during maritime accidents such as ship collisions and groundings. Many fracture models based on different mechanical backgrounds have been proposed and can be used to estimate the extent of damage involving ductile fracture. The goal of this study was to compare the damage extents provided by some selected fracture models. Instead of performing a new series of material constant calibration tests, the fracture test results for the ship building steel EH36 obtained by Park et al. (2019) were used which included specimens with different geometries such as central hole, pure shear, and notched tensile specimens. The test results were compared with seven ductile fracture surfaces: Johnson-Cook, Cockcroft-Latham-Oh, Bai-Wierzbicki, Modified Mohr-Coulomb, Lou-Huh, Maximum shear stress, and Hosford-Coulomb. The linear damage accumulation law was applied to consider the effect of the loading path on each fracture surface. The Swift-Voce combined constitutive model was used to accurately define the flow stress in a large strain region. The reliability of these simulations was verified by the good agreement between the axial tension force elongation relations captured from the tests and simulations without fracture assignment. The material constants corresponding to each fracture surface were calibrated using an optimization technique with the minimized object function of the residual sum of errors between the simulated and predicted stress triaxiality and load angle parameter values to fracture initiation. The reliabilities of the calibrated material constants of B-W, MMC, L-H, and HC were the best, whereas there was a high residual sum of errors in the case of the MMS, C-L-O, and J-C models. The most accurate fracture predictions for the fracture specimens were made by the B-W, MMC, L-H, and HC models.
