This is the second of two part series on experimental studies of grout type transverse joints. In this paper, grout-type transverse joints between precast concrete slabs are tested to study the fatigue behavior. The tests are per-formed with loading equipment designed and constructed especially in the lab to introduce shear fatigue failures on the joints of the test specimens with repeated loads. Non-prestressed as well as prestressed specimens are selected based on static tests and these specimens are studied to identify the effect of prestress on the fatigue strength of the grout type joint. A comparison between prestressed and non-prestressed specimens indicates that longitudinal prestressing is an effective method to increase fatigue strength of the transverse joints. Based on the fatigue test, a rational estimation of the fatigue strength is proposed to aid design of the grout-type transverse joints.

This is the first of two part series on experimental studies of grout type transverse joints. In this study, grout type transverse joints between precast concrete slabs are statically tested to determine the cracking loads and ultimate shear capacities of the grout type transverse joints. The tests are performed with a loading equipment designed and constructed especially in the lab to induce shear failures on the joints of the test specimens. Shape of the transverse joints, grouting materials and amount of prestress are selected as test parameters for the study. The results indicate that epoxy is an excellent grouting material which can be used in limited locations where large tensile stress is acting on the slab. Longitudinal prestressing is also an effective method to increase the shear strength of the transverse joints. A rational method to estimate the cracking and ultimate loads for the design of grout type transverse joints is proposed based on the static loading tests. Success of the tests with shear loading equipment allowed continuing the research further onto the fatigue strength of the grout type joints, which will be presented in the second part of the paper.

In this study, three dimensional FE analysis of concrete slab track has been performed in order to develop the realistic design of precast concrete slab track. The precast slab track system including the precast concrete slab panel and the grout layer is modeled using the three dimensional solid element with crack softening effect. The input load is computed from the one dimensional beam element model constituting the rail and several discrete springs. To investigate the effect of the longitudinal connection of slab panels, two different systems-continuous and discrete systems - are modeled. The analytical results show that the stresses of both the slab panel and the grout layer are in the range of linear elastic, and, at the interface between two adjacent panels, the primary stresses of the grout layer of the discrete system are higher than those of the continuous system. However, The overall stress levels of the grout layer are very low relative to the strength of th grout.

This research is aimed to evaluate the effects of repair conditions, axial load intensities and the enlargement of cross sections after strengthening with steel plate and on the structural behavior of the reinforced concrete columns subjected to axial and lateral loadings. 6 columns were tested under uniform axial compression and concentrated load at the midspan until failiure occurs. As test results, It has been found that the amount of grout bar and the condition of strengthening significantly affect the behavior or reinforced concrete column with steel plate and grout 4 bar (C-G4S2 serise) and enlarged reinforced concrete column with steel plate and grout 8 bar (C-G8S2 serise) are increased to 1000% and 1200% in comparison of those of unstrengthened reinforced concrete columns, respectively

This study was intended to investigate the effects of epoxy grout on compressive strength for damaged concrete structures. For this purpose, concrete molds were manufactured and tested for compressive strength at 28 days after water curing. Two kinds of Korea-made and one Japan-made epoxy grouts were injected into the broken concrete molds with the automatic low-pressure injecting method or the hand injecting method.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the behavior and the strength of SRG (Steel Reinforced Grout) externally strengthened Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams by using a nonlinear numerical analysis. The numerical simulation was carried out by using a three-dimensional (3D) finite element model. An interface element with a suitable damage model was used to model the connection between concrete surface and SRG reinforcing layer. The reliability of the finite element 3D-model was checked using experimental data obtained on a set of three RC beams. The parameters taken into consideration were the external configuration, with or without U-end anchorages, the concrete strength, the amount of internal tensile steel reinforcement. Conclusions were made concerning the strength and the ductility of the strengthened beams by varying the parameters and on the effectiveness of the SRG reinforcing system applied with two types of external strengthening configuration.

본 연구에서는 프리스트레스트 콘크리트용 고품질 그라우트를 개발하기 위한 기초 자료로 활용하기 위해 그라우트의 화학 혼화제로 고성능 감수제와 증점제의 양과 사용방법이 유동성, 블리딩률, 체적변화 및 압축강도에 미치는 영향에 대해 검토하였다. 증점제와 고성능 감수제가 유동성에 미치는 영향에 대해 검토한 결과, 증점제와 고성능 감수제를 조합사용한 경우에는 고성능 감수제의 사용량이 너무 적으면 응집현상이 발생하여 유동성이 저하되나, 고성능 감수제 사용량 0.1% 이상부터 유동성이 크게 향상되는 것으로 나타났다. 증점제의 사용량이 증가할수록 블리딩률이 감소하며, 고성능 감수제는 0.05%까지 블리딩률이 증가하나, 0.1%부터 블리딩률이 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 고성능 감수제와 증점제를 각각 0.15%를 조합한 그라우트의 배합이 유하시간, 플로우, 블리딩 및 체적변화 측면에서 가장 양호한 것으로 분석되었다.

The compressive strength of horizontal joints in precast concrete large panel structures depends on parameters such as grout and panel strength, detail of joint, joint moment, width of grout column etc. As the panels are only connected at the pocket, it results in the reduction of compressive strength area. The purposes of this study are to develop the suitable grout material the joint pocket and to enable us to evaluate structural capacity. The validity of the design formulas provides us more economic system in construction. Test results of 15 specimens show that the proper construction procedure and grouting material develop the sufficient compressive strength of the wall as monolithic system.

In this study, an experimental investigation was conducted to assess the influence of ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) and silica fume (SF) on the fresh and hardened properties of grout specimens and preplaced aggregate concrete (PAC). Grout proportions were optimized statistically using a factorial design and were applied to 10 mm and 20 mm coarse aggregates to produce PAC. The results demonstrate that GGBS has a more significant effect on the compressive strength of grout compared to SF, with a small increase or decrease in the GGBS content having a greater influence on the compressive strength of grout than SF. The water to binder ratio had the most significant effect on the compressive strength of PAC, followed by the coarse aggregate size and sand to binder ratio. An empirical relationship to predict the compressive strength of PAC was proposed through an experimentally derived factorial design along with a statistical analysis of collectively obtained data and a deep literature review. The results predicted by the empirical relationship were in good agreement with those of PAC produced for verification.

최근 일련의 연구로부터, 중공이 있는 프리캐스트 콘크리트(hollewed precast concrete, HPC) 기둥를 사용할 경우, 일반적인 PC기둥에 비하여 접합부 콘크리트를 충실하게 채울수 있으며 이에 따라, 접합부의 고정도는 일체식 철근콘크리트(RC)와 같이 향상될 수 있음이 확인되었다. 그러나 충전콘크리트로 중공부가 채워진 후, HPC부재와 충전콘크리트의 강도가 서로 다르고 이 두 부재 사이에는 접촉면이 있음에 따라 합성구조와 같은 거동을 보이게 되며 이는 합성된 기둥의 구조적 거동과 강도에 영향을 미치게 된다. 이 논문에서는 HPC 기둥에서 중공의 크기와 중공부분 콘크리트의 채움 유무에 따른 기둥의 압축강도 시험을 실시하였다. 중공의 비율은 35, 50 그리고 59%이며 실험체의 양단을 단순지지 형태로서 지지한 뒤 중심압축력을 기둥의 상단에 작용시켰다. 또한 압축에 대한 HPC 기둥의 파괴거동을 묘사하기 위하여 유한요소 해석을 실시하였다. 실험 결과, 중공내부가 충전콘크리트로 채워진 기둥에서, PC와 충전콘크리트의 강도차이와 상관없이 중공률은 기둥의 초기강성에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 기둥의 압축강도는 중공률에 반비례하는 것으로 나타났다. 충전콘크리트가 채워지지 않은 HPC기둥의 구조성능은 중공의 직경에 밀접하게 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 특히, HPC의 두께가 지나치게 얇은 경우에는 국부적인 파괴가 전체 파괴를 지배하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 영향을 고려하여 HPC기둥의 압축내력을 산정할 수 있는 식을 제시하였다. 유한요소해석에서는, HPC와 충전콘크리트 사이의 접촉면을 고려할 경우, 해석 결과가 실험 결과와 좋은 대응을 보이는 것으로 나타났다.
