이 연구에서는 철근콘크리트 부재의 전단파괴가 휨-전단 메커니즘에 지배된다는 가정을 바탕으로 인장측과 압축측에 대한 2개의 전단요구곡선들과 이에 대응되는 잠재전단강도곡선들을 각각 도출하였으며, 이를 기반으로 전단강도 산정모델을 제안하였다. 제안모델에서는 철근과 콘크리트의 부착거동을 고려하여 휨균열폭과 철근의 국부응력증가분을 산정하였다. 또한, 휨균열로부터 발전되는 지배전단균열의 생성과 균열진전거동을 이론적으로 모사하기 위하여 균열집중계수를 도입하였으며, 이를 통해 단면높이가 큰 철근콘크리트 부재에서 관측되는 크기효과를 반영하였다. 또한, 기존의 해석모델과는 다르게 전단철근과 콘크리트의 전단기여분 사이의 상호작용을 고려할 수 있는 새로운 형태의 수식을 개발하였다. 제안모델의 검증을 위하여 방대한 전단실험체들을 기존문헌으로부터 수집하였으며, 이를 통해 해석모델을 검증한 결과는 제안모델이 실험체들의 재료, 크기 및 철근의 부착특성에 관계없이 실험결과를 정확하게 평가할 수 있음을 보여주었다.

This study presents the visually observed behavior of fibers embedded in concrete samples that were subjected to a flexural bending test. Three types of fibers such as macro polypropylene, macro polyethylene, and the hybrid of steel and polyvinyl alcohol were mixed with cement by a designated mix ratio to prepare a total of nine specimens of each. The bending test was conducted by following ASTM C1609 with a net deflection of 2, 4, and 7 mm. The X-ray computed tomography (XCT) was carried out for 7 mm-deflection specimens. The original XCT images were post-processed to denoise the beam-hardening effect. Then, fiber, crack, and void were semi-manually segmented. The hybrid specimen showed the highest toughness compared to the other two types. Debonding based on 2D XCT sliced images was commonly observed for all three groups. The cement matrix near the crack surface often involved partially localized breakage in conjunction with debonding. The pullout was predominant for steel fibers that were partially slipped toward the crack. Crack bridging and rupture were not found presumably due to the image resolution and the level of energy dissipation for poly-fibers, while the XCT imaging was advantageous in evaluating the distribution and behavior of various fibers upon bending for fiber-reinforced concrete beam elements.

In this study, the performance of shear deficient reinforced concrete (RC) beams with rectangular cross-sections, which were externally bonded reinforced (EBR) with high strength CFRP and GFRP strips composite along shear spans, has been experimentally and analytically investigated under vertical load. In the study, the minimum CFRP and GFRP strips width over spacing were considered. The shear beam with turned end to a bending beam was investigated by applying different composite strips. Therefore various arising in each of strength, ductility, rigidity, and energy dissipation capacity were obtained. A total of 12 small-scaled experimental programs have been performed. Beam dimensions have been taken as 100×150×1000 mm. Four beams have been tested as unstrengthened samples. This paper focuses on the effect of minimum CFRP and GFRP strip width on behaviours of RC beams shear-strengthened with full-wrapping, U-wrapping, and U-wrapping+longitudinal bonding strips. Strengthened beams showed significant increments for flexural ductility, energy dissipation, and inelastic performance. The full wrapping strips applied against shear failure have increased the load-carrying capacity of samples 53%-63% interval rate. Although full wrapping is the best strengthening choice, the U-wrapping and U-wrapping+longitudinal strips of both CFRP and GFRP bonding increased the shear capacity by 53%~75% compared to the S2 sample. In terms of ductility, the best result has been obtained by the type of strengthening where the S5 beam was completely GFRP wrapped. The experimental results were also compared with the analytically given by ACI440.2R-17, TBEC-2019 and FIB-2001. Especially in U-wrapped beams, the estimation of FIB was determined to be 81%. The estimates of the other codes are far from meeting the experimental results; therefore, essential improvements should be applied to the codes, especially regarding CFRP and GFRP deformation and approaches for longitudinal strip connections. According to the test results, it is suggested that GFRP, which is at least as effective but cheaper than CFRP, may be preferred for strengthening applications.

GFRP 보강근의 인장강도 및 부착성능 등은 철근과 다르기 때문에 GFRP 보강근을 콘크리트 구조물에 적용하기 위해서는 GFRP 보강근으로 보강된 콘크리트 부재의 거동에 관한 연구가 선행되어야 한다. GFRP는 높은 비강도, 경량성, 비부식성 등의 장점을 가지고 있으나 탄성계수가 철근보다 작아 상대적으로 큰 처짐이 발생하는 단점이 있다. 교량 바닥판은 아칭효과 등에 의해 휨성능이 증가하므로 FRP 보강근을 우선 적용할 수 있는 대상 중 하나이다. 본 논문은 국내에서 개발된 철근 대체재용 GFRP 보강근의 콘크리트 구조물로의 적용 가능성을 관찰하기 위한 실험연구에 관한 것이다. 대상 실험체는 폭과 길이가 3,000 mm, 4,000 mm이고 두께가 240 mm인 실제 크기의 콘크리트 바닥판이다. 실험변수는 보강근 종류(철근, GFRP 보강근)와 보강비로 총 3개의 바닥판을 제작하였다. 정적실험을 수행하였으며 DB-24 하중등급의 축하중을 모사한 재하면적을 가진 직사각형 강재로 바닥판이 파괴될 때까지 집중하중을 가하였다. 철근 보강 바닥판과 GFRP 보강 바닥판의 거동차이를 최대성능, 처짐 및 균열 거동 등에 대해 비교 검토하였다.

The novel composite cold-formed steel (CFS)/engineered cementitious composites (ECC) beams have been recently presented. The new composite section exhibited superior structural performance as a flexural member, benefiting from the lightweight thin-walled CFS sections with improved buckling and torsional properties due to the restraints provided by thinlayered ECC. This paper investigated the shear performance of the new composite CFS/ECC section. Twenty-eight simply supported beams, with a shear span-to-depth ratio of 1.0, were assembled back-to-back and tested under a 3-point loading scheme. Bare CFS, composite CFS/ECC utilising ECC with Polyethylene fibres (PE-ECC), composite CFS/MOR, and CFS/HSC utilising high-strength mortar (MOR) and high-strength concrete (HSC) as replacements for PE-ECC were compared. Different failure modes were observed in tests: shear buckling modes in bare CFS sections, contact shear buckling modes in composite CFS/MOR and CFS/HSC sections, and shear yielding or block shear rupture in composite CFS/ECC sections. As a result, composite CFS/ECC sections showed up to 96.0% improvement in shear capacities over bare CFS, 28.0% improvement over composite CFS/MOR and 13.0% over composite CFS/HSC sections, although MOR and HSC were with higher compressive strength than PE-ECC. Finally, shear strength prediction formulae are proposed for the new composite sections after considering the contributions from the CFS and ECC components.

본 연구는 상부 플랜지가 없는 I형 강재 거더, 즉 역T형의 강재 거더의 일부를 콘크리트에 매립한 역T형강-콘크리트 합성바닥판의 구조거동을 실험적 연구를 통해 분석하여 이를 토대로 새로운 개념의 교량 바닥판 상세를 제안하고자 실시하였다. 이를 위해 기존의 철근콘크리트 바닥판과 강합성 바닥판 시험체를 제작하여 정적 휨파괴 시험을 실시하였다. 이로부터 극한 및 최대하중을 평가하였으며, 전단홀 관통 철근의 적용 유무에 따른 구조거동의 변화를 분석하였다. 실험 결과 전단홀 관통 철근을 적용할 경우에는 충분한 전단강도가 확보되어 전형적인 인장파괴 형태를 나타내고, 극한 및 최대하중 모두 철근콘크리트 바닥판보다 높아지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 철근콘크리트 바닥판보다 강합성 바닥판의 처짐이 크게 발생하는 것으로 나타났다.

프리캐스트 패널은 교량바닥판의 합성 구조부재로서 사용된다. 프리캐스트 패널의 횡방향 강재는 교량바닥판의 주철근 역할을 하며, 또한, 패널은 상부의 현장타설 콘크리트 시공시 거푸집 대용으로 적용된다. 이 연구에서는 프리캐스트 패널과 현장타설 바닥판의 합성효과를 위해 패널 상부에 도입되는 전단철근 필요성을 확인하였다. 또한, 프리캐스트 패널을 갖는 합성바닥판에서 패널간에는 횡방향 이음부의 연속적인 거동이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 전단철근과 루프이음을 갖는 합성바닥판의 정적실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과로부터 바닥판의 연속성 확보를 위한 루프철근 이음부의 연속성을 확인하고, 패널과 현장타설 바닥판 사이의 합성효과를 확인하였다. 전단철근이 있는 합성바닥판은 합성효과의 증가로 인해 전단철근이 없는 바닥판에 비해 약 140~164%의 극한내력을 보인다. 따라서 접합면에 도입되는 전단철근은 파괴시까지 합성거동을 확보해주는 역할을 하는 것으로 판단된다.

Recently, the design of scaffolding systems has garnered considerable attention due to the increasing number of scaffold collapses. These incidents arise from the underestimation of imposed loads and the site-specific conditions that restrict the application of lateral restraints in scaffold assemblies. The present study is committed to augmenting the buckling resistance of vertical support members, obviating the need for supplementary lateral restraints. To achieve this objective, experimental and computational analyses were performed to assess the axial load buckling capacity of steel props, composed of two hollow steel pipes that slide into each other for a certain length. Three full-scale steel props with various geometric properties were tested to construct and validate the analytical models. The total unsupported length of the steel props is 6 m, while three pins were installed to tighten the outer and inner pipes in the distance they overlapped. Finite Element (FE) modeling is carried out for the three steel props, and the developed models were verified using the experimental results. Also, theoretical analysis is utilized to verify the FE analysis. Using the FE-verified models, a parametric study is conducted to evaluate the effect of different inserted pipe lengths on the steel props' axial load capacity and lateral displacement. Based on the results, the typical failure mode for the studied steel props is global elastic buckling. Also, the prop's elastic buckling strength is sensitive to the inserted length of the smaller pipe. A threshold of minimum inserted length is one-third of the total length, after which the buckling strength increases. The present study offers a prop with enhanced buckling resistance and introduces an equation for calculating an equivalent effective length factor (k), which can be seamlessly incorporated into Euler's buckling equation, thereby facilitating the determination of the buckling capacity of the enhanced props and providing a pragmatic engineering solution.

Following an internal column failure, adjacent double-span beams above the failed column will play a critical role in the load transfer and internal force redistribution within the remaining structure, and the span-to-depth ratios of double-span beams significantly influence the structural resistance capacity against progressive collapse. Most existing studies have focused on the collapse-resistant performances of single-story symmetric structures, whereas limited published works are available on the collapse resistances of multi-story steel frames with unequal spans. To this end, in this study, numerical models based on shell elements were employed to investigate the structural behavior of multi-story steel frames with unequal spans. The simulation models were validated using the previous experimental results obtained for single- and two-story steel frames, and the load-displacement responses and internal force development of unequal-span three-story steel frames under three cases were comprehensively analyzed. In addition, the specific contributions of the different mechanism resistances of unequal-span, double-span beams of each story were separated quantitatively using the energy equilibrium theory, with an aim to gain a deeper level of understanding of the load-resistance mechanisms in the unequal-span steel frames. The results showed that the axial and flexural mechanism resistances were determined by the span ratio and linear stiffness ratio of double-span beams, respectively.
