In this experimental study, six post-tensioned light weight concrete (LWC) continuous one-way slabs were tested in the following manner: the flexural behaviors of the members were compared with the calculations from the existing standards. The test also examined the effect of prestressing in tendons and proper prestress conditions to reduce the deflection and crack width, and to enhance the flexural capacity and ductility of LWC members. Flexural capacity and stress increments in unbonded tendons of the specimens were compared with those of the simply supported normal and the lightweight concrete members. The suggested safety limit from the American Concrete Institute (ACI) regulation on the maximum capacity and the stress incremental in unbonded tendons were also compared with the test results under simple and continuous supporting conditions.

거푸집용 데크 플레이트를 사용하는 일방향 슬래브는 구조형식상 4변을 강성이 다른 철골보로 지지된 플레이트 요소이지만 일반실무에서는 철근콘크리트구조 설계기준을 적용하여 일정폭을 가진 연속보로 간주하여 근사적인 해석법을 사용하고 있다. 거푸집용 비합성데크 일방향 슬래브를 지지하고 있는 철골보는 지지형태 및 위치에 따라 서로 다른 처짐이 발생되는 탄성지점으로서 지점별로 발생되는 휨모멘트 값큰 차이가 난다. 따라서, 본 연구는 단부의 부동처짐 효과를 고려한 근사해석법상의 휨모멘트 계수를 합리적으로 산정하기 위하여 다양한 해 석모델을 가정하였으며, 해석상의 변수로는 고정하중에 대한 활하중의 비율, 스팬별 활하중의 배열(패턴재하) 및 스팬길이를 고려하였다. 또한 해석방법으로 3차원 플레이트 유한요소해석, 이차원 탄성지점해석, 이차원 무한강성지점해석, 설계기준상의 근사해석을 각각 적용하여 결과값을 비교 분석하였다.

본 연구는 지하주차장 건물의 바닥구조를 구성하기 위한 방안으로서 프리스트레스를 도입한 일방향 장선구조인 MRS공법을 제안하고, MRS공법의 연속단 접합부에 대한 구조실험을 수행함으로써 휨거동 특성과 접합상세의 적정성을 평가하였다. 연속단 접합부는 4개의 실험체를 제작하였으며, 연속단 접합부에 부모멘트가 작용하도록 실험을 수행하였다. 실물크기로 제작한 MRS 연속단 접합부는 접합부의 구조상세와 상관없이 충분한 휨강성의 발현과 함께 연성적인 휨파괴 거동을 보여주었다. 특히 지붕층에 위치한 MRS 연속단 접합부는 큰 값의 부모멘트를 저항하기 위한 인장철근의 양을 최대철근비 이하로 설계할 수 있으며, 최종파괴 모드는 휨에 의해 지배되는 거동특성을 보여주었다. 따라서 제안된 MRS공법은 우수한 지압성능과 연속단 구축이 용이한 접합부 상세를 갖는 것으로 평가되었다.

Coupled thermo-mechanical analysis of reinforced concrete slab at elevated temperatures from a fire accounting for nonlinear thermal parameters is carried out. The main focus of the paper is put on a one-way continuous reinforced concrete slab exposed to fire from the single (bottom) side as the most typical working condition under fire loading. Although contemporary techniques alongside the fire protection measures are in constant development, in most cases it is not possible to avoid the material deterioration particularly nearby the exposed surface from a fire. Thereby the structural fire resistance of reinforced concrete slabs is mostly influenced by a relative distance between reinforcement and the exposed surface. A parametric study with variable concrete cover ranging from 15 mm to 35 mm is performed. As the first part of a one-way coupled thermo-mechanical analysis, transient nonlinear heat transfer analysis is performed by applying the net heat flux on the exposed surface. The solution of proposed heat analysis is obtained at certain time steps of interest by α-method using the explicit Euler time-integration scheme. Spatial discretization is done by the finite element method using a 1D 2-noded truss element with the temperature nodal values as unknowns. The obtained results in terms of temperature field inside the element are compared with available numerical and experimental results. A high level of agreement can be observed, implying the proposed model capable of describing the temperature field during a fire. Accompanying thermal analysis, mechanical analysis is performed in two ways. Firstly, using the guidelines given in Eurocode 2 - Part 1-2 resulting in the fire resistance rating for the aforementioned concrete cover values. The second way is a fully numerical coupled analysis carried out in general-purpose finite element software DIANA FEA. Both approaches indicate structural fire behavior similar to those observed in large-scale fire tests.

Ties are mandated by many design guidelines and codes to prevent the progressive collapse of buildings initiated by local failures. This study develops a model to estimate catenary/cable action capacity and the required ties in continuous reinforced concrete beams to bridge above the potential failed interior columns. The developed model is derived based on virtual work method and verified using test results presented in the literature. Also, parametric investigations are conducted to estimate the required ties in continuous reinforced concrete beams supporting one-way slab systems. A comparison is conducted between the estimated tie reinforcement using the developed model and that provided by satisfying the integrity provisions of the ACI 318-14 (2014) code. It is shown that the required tie reinforcements to prevent progressive collapse using the developed model are obviously larger than that provided by the integrity requirements of the ACI 318-14 (2014) code. It has been demonstrated that the increases in the demanded tie reinforcements over that provided by satisfying ACI 318-14 (2014) integrity provisions are varied between 1.01 and 1.46.
