This paper aims at developing the knowledge on the seismic behavior of dowel beam-to-column connections, typically employed in precast buildings in Europe. Despite the large diffusion of the industrial buildings, a high seismic vulnerability was exhibited by these structures, mostly due to the connection systems deficiencies, during some recent earthquakes (Emilia 2012, Turkey 2011). An experimental campaign was conducted on a typical dowel connection between an external column and a roof beam. In this paper, the performed cyclic shear test is described. According to the experimental results, the seismic response of the system is evaluated in terms of strength, stiffness and failure mechanism. Moreover, the complete damage pattern of the test is described by means of the instrumentations records. The connection failure occurred due to the concrete cover failure in the column (splitting failure). Such a mechanism corresponds to a negligible energy dissipation capacity of the connection, compared to the overall seismic response of the structure. The experimental results are also compared with the results of a similar monotonic shear test, as well as with some literature relationships for predicting the strength of dowel connections under horizontal (seismic) loads.

EYM (European Yield Model), which was adopted in NDS (National Design Specification for wood construction), has been used in Korea without any verification of the analysis of bolted wood connections. In the case of applying lumber from domestic small diameter logs, however, there are some problems with the direct application of EYM ; 1) relatively low dowel bearing strength and dimensional stability due to a large amount of immature wood, 2) effect of MC (moisture contents) on the dowel bearing strength of wood and the yield load of a bolted connection. To evaluate the strength properties of bolted connections with lumber from domestic small diameter logs, effect of MC on the dowel bearing strength of wood was investigated and double shear bolted connection tests were performed. As the MC of wood increased, the dowel bearing strength was linearly reduced, even under 19% MC, which showed that adjustment, not considered in NDS, was required. Double shear bolted connection tests indicated that effect of MC on yield load should be considered in order to determine design value.

The modelling approach in the case of connections in precast buildings is specific. The assembly of the constitutive parts of the connection requires the inclusion of contact definitions in the model. In addition, the material non-linearity including the influence of the spatial stress distribution should be taken into account where appropriate. Here a complex model of a beam-to-column dowel connection is presented. Experiments on the analysed connection were performed within the framework of the European project SAFECAST (Performance of Innovative Mechanical Connections in Precast Building Structures under Seismic Conditions). Several material and interaction parameters were investigated and the influence of each of them was evaluated. The set of parameters which gave the best match with the experiments was chosen.

The flat plate slab system have many good features, which are design flexibilities, saving of story-height and economy of construction etc. But the study of flat plate slab system for H-steel column have been rare both at home and abroad. Recently high-rise residential and commercial buildings have been constructed in urban areas in Korea. The suggested dowel connection system is more likely to adoptable because it remarkably contribute to save inter story height and also to have many advantages compared with conventional steel works such as H-Steel frame + Deck plate slab system. This study aims at developing design method and program for connection between H-Steel column and flat plate slab system, which contribute to save significantly inter-story height.

Two transversely isotropic plasticity-based models for wood, derived from the standard compression properties and the embedment properties were investigated for suitability of application for bolted connections. It was found that the conventional connection models involving the compression properties were incapable of simulating the real behaviour of the connections because the compression properties provided too stiff foundation to represent embedding behaviour of wood under the bolt. However, wood foundation-based connection model that was newly developed using the bolt embedment properties showed good agreement with the actual behaviour of bolted connections.

Generally the non-bearing walls in apartment buildings in Korea are not considered as a lateral force resisting members for the design consideration. This engineering practice caused large crack damages and brittle fractures of the non-bearing walls when subjected to Pohang earthquakes in 2017 since those have not been designed for seismic loading. In this study, finite element analysis was conducted for slot type non-bearing wall connection system to reduce damages and concentrate damages to the designated damping device through separation from the structural wall members. Steel plate and dowel bar systems designed for the dissipation of seismic energies were modeled and analyzed to investigate the damage reductions. Finally, the test result and the analysis result were compared and verified.

집성재 다우얼 접합부가 적용되는 기둥의 기초, 기둥-보 접합부에는 회전이 발생하므로 접합부의 모멘트 성능에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 접합부의 회전에 의해서 섬유방향과 각을 이루어 작용하는 하중을 섬유방향에 평행한 하중과 수직한 하중으로 단순화 하여 거동을 해석하고 예측하였다. 드리프트 핀의 휨강도 및 지압응력을 평가하였으며, 섬유방향에 평행한 인장하중과 수직한 인장하중을 받는 접합부의 끝면 거리를 다르게 하여 접합부의 인장형 전단성능을 시험하였고 회전이 작용하는 접합부는 드리프트 핀의 개수와 배열 방향을 다르게 하여 시험하였다. 접합부에 인장하중이 작용할 때 항복 이후의 변형량은 드리프트 핀의 소성변형에 의해서 발생하며, 집성재의 끝면 거리 확보에 의한 드리프트 핀의 변형 흡수가 접합부 전체의 변형량에 영향을 주는 것으로 판단된다. 2개의 드리프트 핀이 섬유방향에 평행하게 배열된 경우(b2h)에는 섬유방향에 수직한 인장하중 거동을 나타내고, 2개의 드리프트 핀이 섬유방향에 수직하게 배열된 경우(b2v)에는 섬유방향에 평행한 인장하중 거동을 나타내는 것으로 평가된다. 4개의 드리프트 핀이 정사각 배열된 접합부의 경우(b4)에 2개의 드리프트 핀이 섬유방향에 평행하게 배열된 접합부(b2h)의 약 1.7배의 하중 성능을 나타냈으며, 접합부에 회전이 작용하여 섬유방향과 각을 이루는 하중을 섬유방향에 대한 평행 또는 수직한 하중으로 치환하여 거동을 평가, 예측하는 것이 가능하다고 판단된다.

집성재의 구조부재로서의 이용에 있어서는 접합철물(connector)과 파스너(fastener)에 의한 접합이 대부분을 차지하고 있다. 이들 접합부의 역학적 거동은 파스너의 지압과 부재의 전단현상으로 설명할 수 있다. 집성재 내의 층재 구성상태에 따른 전단성능, 2면전단 핀접합부의 인발에 의한 전단성능, 실대 기둥-보 2면전단 핀접합부의 모멘트 저항성능을 검토하였다. 집성접착된 부위의 경우, 두 층재간의 보완작용에 의해 밀도 및 전단강도에 있어서도 적층효과를 발휘하였다. 소시험편의 전단강도를 이용한 핀접합부의 2면전단강도와 모멘트 저항성능을 예측할 경우 다소의 보정이 필요할 것으로 판단되었다. 기둥-보 접합부의 모멘트저항성능 예측은 소시험편 전단강도의 10%를 저감하여 이용하면 안전하게 예측가능한 것으로 판명되었다.

이 연구에서는 시공성이 단순한 연성형 절점을 갖는 HSRC 하이브리드 보 시스템의 콘크리트 보 영역에서의 일축 전단 및 연결절점 영역에서의 전단마찰 거동을 평가하였다. 일축 전단의 실험은 내민보 시스템으로써 파괴경간의 전단경간비는 1.6이다. 연결절점 영역에서의 전단마찰 거동을 평가하기 위한 실험은 상부 2점 집중하중으로써 순 전단경간비는 0.1이다. 실험 결과, 연결절점에서 배근된 장부철근이 HSRC 보의 균열 진전에 미치는 영향은 미미하였지만, 부재의 전단내력은 약 25% 향상시켰다. HSRC 보의 일축 전단 및 전단마찰 내력은 장부철근의 유무와 상관없이 ACI 318-14 및 EC2 설계식을 이용하여 안전 측에서 평가될 수 있었다.

In General, post-installed dowel bars are used as a shear connector to ensure the composite actions between new slabs and existing slabs in an apartment remodelling constructions expecially for enlarging the interior space outward the existing buildings. But, it has not been checked that the connection performance between existing and new slab is satisfactory not only for the structural safety condition but also the for serviceability and dwelling requirements. In this research, an experimental works were presented to evaluate the load transfer capacity for the planar joints between existing and new slab. The existing slabs were obtained from the existing apartment housing which will be demolished. Test results showed that the planar joints with post-installed dowel bars behaved in full composite modes until ultimate capacity of test specimens, so sufficient ultimate and serviceability performance are confirmed.
