현재 토목 및 건축구조에서 고성능 고강도 강에 대한 수요가 증가함에 따라 고성능 재료개발의 필요성이 증대되고 있다. 특히 초고층 건물과 장경간을 가지는 구조에서는 고강도, 고인성, 우수한 용접성 등이 요구된다. 이에 따라 현재 국내에서는 600MPa 급 강재의 개발이 진행 중에 있다. 그러나 고강도 강재는 일반 강재와는 전혀 다른 기계적 특성을 갖고 있다. 그러므로 고강도 강재를 구조물에 적용하기 위해서는 비탄성영역에서의 거동이 일반 강재와 동등한가를 확인해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 600MPa급 원형 강관의 기둥 및 보부재 실험을 통해 구조적 거동을 파악하였다. 각각 3개의 기둥 및 보 실험이 수행되었으며, 현행설계규준과의 적합성을 평가하였다.

In Special Concentrically Braced Frames (SCBFs), vertical and horizontal components of the brace force must be resisted by column and beam, respectively but normal force component existing at the gusset plate-to-column and beam interfaces, creates out-of-plane action making distortion in column and beam faces adjacent to the gusset plate. It is a main concern in Hollow Structural Section (HSS) columns and beams where their webs and gusset plate are not in the same plane. In this paper, a new gusset plate passing through the HSS columns and beams, named as through gusset plate, is proposed to study the force transfer mechanism in such gusset plates of SCBFs compared to the case with conventional gusset plates. For this purpose, twelve SCBFs with diagonal brace and HSS columns and twelve SCBFs with chevron brace and HSS columns and beams are considered. For each frame, two cases are considered, one with through gusset plates and the other with conventional ones. Based on numerical results, using through gusset plates prevents distortion and out-of-plane deformation at HSS column and beam faces adjacent to the gusset plate helping the entire column and beam cross-sections to resist respectively vertical and horizontal components of the brace force. Moreover, its application increases energy dissipation, lateral stiffness and strength around 28%, 40% and 32%, respectively, improving connection behavior and raising the resistance of the normal force components at the gusset plate-to-HSS column and beam interfaces to approximately 4 and 3.5 times, respectively. Finally, using such through gusset plates leads to better structural performance particularly for HSS columns and beams with larger width-to-thickness ratio elements.

Timber is one of the few natural, renewable building materials and glulam is a type of engineering wood product. In the present work, timber-based braces are applied for retrofitting midrise Special Moment Resisting Frame (SMRF) using two types of timber base braces (Timber base glulam, and hybrid Timber-Steel-BRB) as alternatives for retrofitting by traditional steel bracings. The improving effects of adding the bracings to the SMRF on seismic characteristics of the frame are evaluated using load-bearing capacity, energy dissipation, and story drifts of the frame. For evaluating the retrofitting effects on the seismic performance of SMRF, a five-story SMRF is considered unretofitted and retrofitted with steel-hollow structural section (HSS) brace, Glued Laminated Timber (Glulam) brace, and hybrid Timber-Steel BRB. Using OpenSees structural analyzer, the performance are investigated under pushover, cyclic, and incremental loading. Results showed that steel-HSS, timber base Glulam, and hybrid timber-steel BRB braces have more significant roles in energy dissipation, increasing stiffness, changing capacity curves, reducing inter-story drifts, and reducing the weight of the frames, compared by steel bracing. Results showed that Hybrid BRB counteract the negative post-yield stiffness, so their use is more beneficial on buildings where P-Delta effects are more critical. It is found that the repair costs of the buildings with hybrid BRB will be less due to lower residual drifts. As a result, timber steel-BRB has the best energy dissipation and seismic performance due to symmetrical and stable hysteresis curves of buckling restrained braces that can experience the same capacities in tension and compression.

Wake-induced aerodynamics of yawed circular cylinders with smooth and grooved surfaces in a tandem arrangement was studied. This pair of cylinders represent sections of stay-cables with smooth surfaces and high-voltage power conductors with grooved surfaces that are vulnerable to flow-induced structural failure. The study provides some insight for a better understanding of wake-induced loads and galloping problem of bundled cables. All experiments in this study were conducted using a pair of stationary section models of circular cylinders in a wind tunnel subjected to uniform and smooth flow. The aerodynamic force coefficients and vortex-shedding frequency of the downstream model were extracted from the surface pressure distribution. For measurement, polished aluminum tubes were used as smooth cables; and hollow tubes with a helically grooved surface were used as power conductors. The aerodynamic properties of the downstream model were captured at wind speeds of about 6-23 m/s (Reynolds number of 5×10⁴ to 2.67×10⁵ for smooth cable and 2×10⁴ to 1.01×10⁵ for grooved cable) and yaw angles ranging from 0° to 45° while the upstream model was fixed at the various spacing between the two model cylinders. The results showed that the Strouhal number of yawed cable is less than the non-yawed case at a given Reynolds number, and its value is smaller than the Strouhal number of a single cable. Additionally, compared to the single smooth cable, it was observed that there was a reduction of drag coefficient of the downstream model, but no change in a drag coefficient of the downstream grooved case in the range of Reynolds number in this study.

광강도형 광섬유 진동센서를 이용한 구조물의 진동감지 및 판에서의 충격위치 검출에 관한 연구가 수행되었다. 광섬유 진동센서는 유리 모세관의 내부에 광섬유의 클래딩 부분이 서로 마주보게 하여 제작되며 그 중 한 쪽은 외팔보 형태이다. 진동이 센서에 가해지면 센서 내부의 외팔보가 진동하게 되고 그에 따라 맞은편 광섬유로 전해지는 빛의 강도가 변화하게 된다. 진동감지 실험을 위해 광섬유 진동센서를 복합재료 보의 표면에 부착하고 자유 진동 및 강제 진동에 대한 신호를 취득하였다. 충격 위치 검출에 관한 실험은 아크릴 판에 대하여 알려진 위치에 네 개의 센서를 표면에 부착하고 진동의 도달 시간을 FFT를 이용하여 측정하였다. 충격위치는 이러한 시간차이를 이용하여 계산되어졌다. 광섬유 진동센서는 상용센서인 갭센서와 동일하게 구조물의 진동을 감지하였으며 판에서의 충격위치를 비교적 정확히 측정하였다.

The Rosette-joining system is a completely new press-joining method for cold-formed steel structures. One Rosette-joint has a shear capacity equal to that of approximately four screws or rivets. The Rosette thin-walled steel truss system presents a new fully integrated prefabricated alternative to light-weight roof truss structures. The trusses are built up on special industrial production lines from modified top hat sections used as top and bottom chords and channel sections used as webs which are joined together with the Rosette press-joining technique to form a completed structure easy to transport and install. A single web section is used when sufficient but can be strengthened by double-nesting two separate sections or by using two lateral profiles where greater compressive axial forces are met. An individual joint in the truss can be strengthened by introducing a hollow bolt into the joint hole. The bolt gives the connection capacity a boost of approximately 20%. A series of laboratory tests have been carried out in order to verify the Rosette truss system in practice. In addition to compression tests on individual sections of different lengths, tests have also been done on small structural assemblies and on actual full-scale trusses of a span of 10 metres. Design calculations have been performed on selected roof truss geometries based on the test results, FE-analysis and on the Eurocode 3 and U.S.(AISI) design codes.

This paper presents a finite element model for predicting the monotonic behaviour of bolted endplate joints connecting steel-concrete composite walls and steel beams. The demountable Hollo-bolts are utilised to facilitate the quick installation and dismantling for replacement and reuse. In the developed model, material and geometric nonlinearities were included. The accuracy of the developed model was assessed by comparing the numerical results with previous experimental tests on hollow/composite column-to-steel beam joints that incorporated endplates and Hollo-bolts. In particular, the Hollo-bolts were modelled with the expanded sleeves involved, and different material properties of the Hollo-bolt shank and sleeves were considered based on the information provided by the manufacture. The developed models, therefore, can be applied in the present study to simulate the wall-to-beam joints with similar structural components and characteristics. Based on the validated model, the authors herein compared the behaviour of wall-to-beam joints of two commonly utilised composite walling systems (Case 1: flat steel plates with headed studs; Case 2: lipped channel section with partition plates). Considering the ease of manufacturing, onsite erection and the pertinent costs, composite walling system with flat steel plates and conventional headed studs (Case 1) was the focus of present study. Specifically, additional headed studs were pre-welded inside the front wall plates to enhance the joint performance. On this basis, a series of parametric studies were conducted to assess the influences of five design parameters on the behaviour of bolted endplate wall-to-beam joints. The initial stiffness, plastic moment capacity, as well as the rotational capacity of the composite wall-to-beam joints based on the numerical analysis were further compared with the current design provision.

일반적으로 비부착 프리캐스트 콘크리트 교각은 철근콘크리트 교각에 비하여 내진성능과 지진 후의 공용성능이 우수하다. 본 연구에서는 OpenSEES 프로그램을 사용하여 비부착 프리캐스트 교각의 내진거동을 분석하였다. 특히, 콘크리트 강도, 긴장재의 초기 긴장비, 긴장재 비, 교각 세그먼트의 크기의 변화에 대한 비부착 프리캐스트 콘크리트 교각의 내진거동에 대하여 해석적으로 연구하였다. 해석결과 긴장재 비 및 초기 긴장비가 증가함에 따라 연화상태 및 극한상태시의 휨강도도 증가하였다. 콘크리트 강도 및 세그먼트 크기에 따른 교각의 휨강도 차이는 거의 무시할 만 하였으나, 초기 긴장비의 증가는 긴장재의 항복 시점을 앞당기는 결과를 나타냈다. 또한, 심부콘크리트의 압축 변형률이 극한변형률에 미치지 않으므로, 일반 콘크리트교각에 비하여 심부구속 철근량을 감소시킬 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
