In this study, lap spliced ultra-high strength reinforced concrete beams were tested and the code criteria for calculating the lap splice length which was affected by the transverse reinforcement and concrete covering performance were reviewed. The main variables for test were set as fiber volume fraction and transverse reinforcing bar arrangement to improve the confining performance of the concrete cover. The change of the confining performance of concrete cover according to the increase in the fiber mixing amount at 1% and 2% volume ratio was examined, and D10 stirrups with a spacing of 100 mm were placed in the lap spliced region. As a result of the test, the specimens confined by the stirrups showed a sudden drop of load bearing capacity with horizontal cracking at the position of tensile longitudinal reinforcement. However, horizontal cracks were not appeared at the location of longitudinal reinforcement for the specimens with steel fiber. And these specimens showed gradual decrease of load bearing capacity after experiencing peak load. In particular, it was found that the strain at the position of the tensile longitudinal reinforcements of the specimens to which the mixing ratio of 2% was applied exceeds the yield strain. As a result of measuring the strain on the concrete surface, it was found that the fiber was more effective in preventing damage to the concrete surface than the stirrups for short lap spliced region.

The efforts which increase the strength of the auto-body structure and decrease its weight lead to develop a new concept of part production systems, such as Post-Form Strengthening by induction heat treatment. In this study, several cold and hot-rolled sheet steels were used to find out optimum induction heat treatment conditions. After induction heat treatment, strength of heat-treated sheet steels was increased significantly compared with that of as-rolled steels. From these results, auto-body structure which has more light and safe has been made by using this induction hardening method.

Residual stress is generated in the structures as a result of irregular elastic-plastic deformation during fabrication processes such as welding, heat treatment, and mechanical processing. There are several factors attributed to the origin of residual stresses, tensile or compressive. The stresses can be determined by destructive ways or nondestructive ways using X-ray or neutron diffraction. Although X-ray diffraction is a well established technique, it is practically limited to near-surface stresses. Neutrons penetrate easily into most materials and neutron diffraction permits non-destructive evaluation of lattice strain within the bulk of large specimens because the radiation is more deeply penetrating for metallic engineering components. This paper presented application of neutron diffraction technique to the residual stress measurement using 20 mm thick welded stainless steel plate($100{\times}100 \textrm{mm}^2$)

The remote measurement system(RMS) as a new experimental method is limited in its application to crack measurements at elevated temperatures because of the oxide layer on the specimen surface. Since TiAlN and Cr coating layers have a high resistance to oxidation and wear, this paper proposed a TiAlN and Cr coating technique for specimens to facilitate the measurement of crack growth behavior using RMS. To investigate the effects of the coating layer, tension and fatigue tests were carried out at room temperature and at 538$^{\circ}C$, using specimens of 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel. From the experimental results, it was found that the mechanical properties of the TiAlN and Cr coated specimens were similar to those of the substrate. Accordingly, the TiAlN and Cr coated layer had hardly any influence on the fatigue crack propagation.

This study is about the dynamic behavior of steel(SM45C). Dynamic tests were performed using SHPB(Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar) which is designed and modified to be used in both tensile and compressive modes. Quasi-static compression tests were also carried out for the comparison to the dynamic results. Not only the dynamic mechanical properties but also the effect of the notch of the specimen on stress-strain curve were investigated. The dynamic test results reveal that strain and stress are sensitively affected by the notch. The depth and the number of notch increase the stress and decrease the strain.

Using high tensile steel plate makes the vehicle body stiffness lower even though it can lessen the fuel consume rate in application of weight reduction. The crack which happens arround vehicle window glass is brought about due to fatigue with low torsional stiffness. The paper presents a most suitable way to increase torsional stiffness using elasticity theory. Also the result of this study shows good agreement with FEM and experiments. We used a passenger car for calculation in this paper. Because we can apply the result of this study to fire engine as well as passenger car.

While a little research has been performed on flexural behavior of reinforced polymer concrete (RPC) beams with the compressive strength lower than 1000kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$, vary little exists in conjunction with the behavior of (RPC) 1,400kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ or compressive strength. In this paper the flexural behavior of high strength polymer concrete beams with 1,400kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ in compressive was evaluated. The unsaturated polyester resin was used to make polymer concrete as binder. The beams with stirrup singly/doubly were rested to examine the effect of tensile reinforcement ratio. As test results. steel ratio increased with the increased moment strength, decreased with ultimate deflection.

The remaining life estimation for the aged components in power plants as well as chemical plants are very important because mechanical properties of the components are degraded with time of service exposure in the high temperature. Since it is difficult to take specimens from the operating components to evaluate mechanical properties of components, accelerated aging technique are needed to estimate and analyse the material degradation. In the this study, test materials with 4 different degradation levels were prepared by isothermal aging heat treatment at $630^{\circ}C$. And tensile test, $k_{IC}$ test, hardness test and Scanning Electron Microscope analysis were performed in order to evaluate the degradation of 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steels.

This study deals with high power Nd:YAG laser welding of thin steels for small pressure vessels. Full penetration welding at the overlap joint was performed so as to assure sufficient weld strength. Results showed that mid-depth weld size reduced drastically with increasing the travel speed. Position of focus had little effect on the bead formation even though short focal system was used. However, the shape factor and the bead width had closely related with the position of focus. Based on the microstructural inspection, acceptable weld was obtained when the overlap clearance was controlled up to 20% of the base metal thickness. In the case that the joint contained more clearance than the critical value, both the tensile shear strength and the tear strength were reduced. Results also demonstrated that shielding gases were proved to play a key role as far as the bead formation characteristics was taken into consideration. Blowing dry air through 5mm in diameter nozzle produced narrower bead cross-section than that of argon or nitrogen shielding.

The use of high tensile steel plates is increasing in the fabrication of ship and offshore structures. In usual, plate element contributes to inplane stiffness against the action of inplane load. If the plate element has local corrosion, its load carrying capacity under inplane load is expected to be reduced. Until now, however, the research report concerned with this topic has not seen. In this study, a basic study which clarifies the influence of local corrosion on the ultimate collapse strength of plate element subjected to axial compression is carried out by using elasto-platic large deformation finite element analysis. In particular, influence of corrosive area, corrosive thickness and slenderness ratio of dented plate is investigated.
