Strengthening slender reinforced concrete (RC) columns is a challenge. They are susceptible to overall buckling that induces bending moment and axial compression. This study presents the precise three-dimensional finite element modeling of slender RC columns strengthened with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites sheets with various patterns under concentric or eccentric compression. The slenderness ratio λ (height/width ratio) of the studied columns ranged from 15 to 35. First, to determine the optimal modeling procedure, nine alternative nonlinear finite element models were presented to simulate the experimental behavior of seven FRP-strengthened slender RC columns under eccentric compression. The models simulated concrete behavior under compression and tension, FRP laminate sheets with different fiber orientations, crack propagation, FRP-concrete interface, and eccentric compression. Then, the validated modeling procedure was applied to simulate 58 FRP-strengthened slender RC columns under compression with minor eccentricity to represent the inevitable geometric imperfections. The simulated columns showed two cross sections (square and rectangular), variable λ values (15, 22, and 35), and four strengthening patterns for FRP sheet layers (hoop H, longitudinal L, partial longitudinal L_w, and longitudinal coupled with hoop LH). For λ=15-22, pattern L showed the highest strengthening effectiveness, pattern L_w showed brittle failure, steel reinforcement bars exhibited compressive yielding, ties exhibited tensile yielding, and concrete failed under compression. For λ>22, pattern L_w outperformed pattern L in terms of the strengthening effectiveness relative to equivalent weight of FRP layers, steel reinforcement bars exhibited crossover tensile strain, and concrete failed under tension. Patterns H and LH (compared with pattern L) showed minor strengthening effectiveness.

대단면 터널에서 시공되는 사전보강공법에 의한 보강영역의 보강효과를 수치해석적으로 모델링하기 위한 다양한 방법이 제시되고 있지만 실무자들은 공학적인 방법보다는 경험적인 방법과 문헌을 참고하여 설계를 수행하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 상용 프로그램에서 직접적으로 적용할 수 있는 사전보강 영역의 물성치 결정에 있어서 거시적 접근법의 개념을 기반으로 미시적 접근법을 적용한 등가 물성치를 결정하는 기법을 제시하고 3차원 수치해석을 통한 실제모델 해석결과와 다른 여러 미시적 접근법들과의 비교 분석을 수행하여 타당한 보강영역 물성치 결정기법을 제시하였다. 해석 결과 구근과 강관의 병렬연결 강성이 원지반과 직렬로 연결되는 사전보강영역의 직병렬 강성 시스템과, 구근과 강관의 직렬 강성 시스템이 실해와 가장 근사한 변위를 예측하였으나 후자의 경우 그 모델링 과정이 복잡하므로 본 연구에서는 간편법으로써 직병렬 강성 시스템을 제안한다. 직병렬 강성 시스템은 천단변위에 대해 풍화암 지반에서는 약간 안전측으로, 내공변위와 지표면 변위에 대해서는 정밀모델의 결과와 거의 동일하게 거동하는 것으로 분석되었으며 풍화토와 풍화암 지반에서 동일한 변위 경향성을 나타낸다. 본 연구에서 제시된 사전보강영역의 직병렬 강성 시스템은 실제모델로 대표되는 보강지반의 거동 메카니즘을 효과적으로 나타내는 것으로 분석된다.

In view of the importance of material reduction and rational structural design due to the rapid increase in oil and steel prices, an optimized structural hybrid design system for the doubler plate of a ship's hull structure was developed. A direct design process by a structural designer was added to this developed optimized system to increase the design efficiency and provide a way of directly inserting a designer's decisions into the design system process. As the first step of the doubler design system development, the design formulas used in doubler design system were introduced. Based on the introduction of influence coefficients $K_{t_c}$ $K_{t_d}$, $K_{b_d}$ and $K_{a_d}$ according to the variations in the doubler length, breadth, doubler thickness, and average corrosion thickness of the main plate, the design formulas for an equivalent plate thickness were developed, and a hybrid design system using these formulas was suggested for the slender doubler plate of a ship structure subjected to a longitudinal in-plane compression load. By using this developed design system, a more rational doubler plate design can be expected considering the efficient reinforcement of the plate members of ship structures. Additionally, a more detailed structural analysis through local strength evaluations will be performed to verify the efficiency of the optimum structural design for the doubler plate.

본 논문은 등가정적하중법에 의해 설계된 경부고속철도 구간 중 PSC Box Girder 대표 교량들을 대상으로 등가정적법과 응답스팩트럼법을 이용하여 지진력이 산정되었고, 지진력의 차이가 확인된다. 해석법 비교를 위하여 상용유한요소 프로그램을 이용하여 5개 교량에 대한 3차원 유한유소 모델이 구성되었고, 각 해석법의 의한 지진력이 비교되었다. 고유주기가 저차에서 지배되는 경우, 지반조건과 고유주기의 따라 지진가속도가 산정되는 응답스팩트럼법과 등가정적하중법과의 차이가 커지는 것이 확인되었다. 이렇게 산정된 지진력에 차이에 따른 내진성능 평가 결과 설계 지진력 보다 큰 지진력의 적용으로 인한 것으로 내진 보강의 필요성을 의미한다.

Because of the importance of steel material saving and rational ship structural design due to the rapid increase in steel prices, a ship structural design system was developed for plate members reinforced by doubler plates subjected to biaxial in-plane compressive loads. This paper mainly emphasizes the design system improvement and upgrade according to the change in the in-plane loading condition of the doubler plate from the single load discussed in a previous paper to the biaxial in-plane compressive load discussed in this paper. A direct design process by a structural designer was added to this developed optimized system to increase the design efficiency and provide a way of directly inserting a designer's decisions into the design system process. As the second stage of preliminary steps of doubler design system development, design formulas subjected to these biaxial loads used in the doubler plate design system were suggested. Based on the introduction of influence coefficients $K_t_c$, $K_t_d$, $K_b_d$ and $K_a_d$ based on the variations in the doubler length, breadth, doubler thickness, and average corrosion thickness of the main plate reinforced by the doubler plate, respectively, the design formulas for the equivalent plate thickness of the main plate reinforced by the doubler plate were also developed, and a hybrid design system using these formulas was suggested for the doubler plate of a ship structure subjected to a biaxial in-plane compressive load. Using this developed design system for a main plate reinforced by a doubler plate was expected to result in a more rational reinforced doubler plate design considering the efficient reinforcement of ship plate members subjected to these biaxial loads. Additionally, a more detail structural analysis through local strength evaluations will be performed to verify the efficiency of the optimum structural design for a plate member reinforced by a doubler plate.

강합성 구조물의 설계절차는 파형강판구조물에 대한 현행 국내외 시방기준을 따르고 있는데, 시방기준이 2차원 해석 및 설계를 바탕으로 규정되어 있기 때문에 비등가 단면인 강합성 빔보강 공법에는 현행 시방기준을 적용할 수 없다. 그러므로 등가단면의 구조물로 환산하여 2차원 해석 및 설계를 수행하게 된다. 그러나 강합성 빔보강 공법은 종방향을 따라 일정한 간격을 두고 빔과 타입콘크리트를 이용하여 보강을 한 형태이기 때문에 3차원 해석에 기초한 설계과정이 요구된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수치해석을 통해 3차원 설계를 위한 해석적인 근거를 제시하고자 한다.

철근콘크리트 전단벽의 전단강도를 예측하기 위한 기존 연구자들의 스트럿-타이 모델(STM)들은 횡하중 및 상부의 축력에 대한 전단벽의 내부 힘의 흐름과 웨브의 전단철근에 의해 전달되는 전단력의 비율을 명확히 제시하고 있지 않다. 이를 개선하기 위해서, 이 연구에서는 콘크리트 파괴역학의 균열 띠 이론을 기반한 단순한 STM을 개발하였다. 응력이완 스트립을 동반하는 콘크리트 스트럿의 등가유효너비는 중립축 깊이와 콘크리트 유효압축강도 계수로 결정되었다. 균열 띠 확장영역의 전단 전달 메커니즘은 강성법에 의한 트러스 작용으로부터 산정되었다. 웨브 콘크리트 스트럿과 전단철근에 의한 전단 전달력은 응력이완 스트립과 균열 띠 이론을 기반한 에너지평형조건으로부터 유도되었다. 제시된 모델은 Siao와 Hwang et al.의 STM에 비해 150여개의 기존 실험결과의 경향을 잘 예측하였다. 또한, 제시된 STM은 각 변수에 따른 무차원된 전단강도의 경향을 잘 반영하고 있다.

Five slab specimens with predefined cracks are examined to evaluate the corrosion behavior of epoxy-coated bars in chloride contaminated concrete, using linear polarization method. The test specimens were subjected to alternating weekly cycles of ponding in a salt solution and drying for 48 weeks. Test results show that the current density of the specimen of normal steel bars becomes 0.715 ${\mu}A/cm^2$ indicating that the steel bars are in moderate or high corrosion condition. However, the corrosion rates of the specimens with damaged epoxy-coated bars are significantly below 0.1 ${\mu}A/cm^2$ and the bars appears to be in passive condition. The damaged epoxy-coated bars with a corrosion inhibitor of calcium nitrite showed a corrosion rate of 0.110 ${\mu}m/year$ or 56 percents of the corrosion rate of damaged epoxy-coated specimen without such an inhibitor, 0.195 ${\mu}m/year$. However, the corrosion rates of specimens containing the other two corrosion inhibitors, a combination of amines and esters or mixtures of organic alkenyl dicarboxyl acid salts are quite equivalent to the control specimen. The research technique of linear polarization resistance method has proven itself to be useful in measuring corrosion rates of reinforcement in concrete.

With the emergence of ultra-high strength of concrete, the compression lap splice has become an important area of interest. According to ACI 318-08, a compression splice can be longer than a tension splice when high-strength concrete is used. By reevaluating the test results of compression splices and performing regression analysis, a simplified design equation for splice length in compression was developed based on the basic form of design equations for development/splice lengths of deformed bars and hooks in tension. A simple linear relation between $l_s/d_b$ and $f_{sc}\sqrt{f'_c}$ was assumed, and yields good values for the correlation coefficient and the mean and the COV (coefficient of variation) of the ratios of tests to predictions of splice strengths in compression. By including the 5% fractile coefficient of 0.83, a design equation for splice length in compression was developed. The splice length calculated using the proposed equation has a reliability that is equivalent to other provisions for reinforcing bars.

At the present, the mechanized form roads pavement was constructed with plain concrete. Mostly, it was used by welded wire mesh for preventing crack. Cellulose fibers for the reinforcement of concrete offer relatively high levels of elastic modulus, fiber count (per unit weight), specific surface, and bond strength to cement-based materials. The construction of concrete pavement confirmed that cellulose fiber reinforced concrete was applicable to mechanized form roads pavement. In the study, cellulose fibers were used here at 0.08 % volume fraction, which is equivalent to a fiber content of $1.2kg/m^3$. Cellulose fiber reinforced concrete were compared with plain concrete. Field test results indicated that cellulose fiber reinforced concrete showed slightly to increase of 28 days compressive strength and improved the initial strength. it tended to increase of splitting tensile strength. Test results showed that the slump and air content tend to decreased. but, the variation of air contends is very little. Also, construction cost of cellulose fiber reinforced concrete is less than about 25.7 % the case of welded wire mesh previously used. Therefore, The cost reduction is expected to be possible in construction site by mechanized form roads pavement.
