The use of high-strength concrete (HSC) in precast concrete segmental bridges (PCSBs) can minimize the superstructure geometry and reduce beam weight, which can accelerate the construction speed. Dry joints between the segments in PCSBs introduce discontinuity and require special attention in design and construction. Cracks in dry joints initiate more easily than those in epoxy joints in construction period or in service. Due to the higher rupture strength of HSC, the higher cracking resistance can be achieved. In this study, shear behavior of dry joints in PCSBs was investigated by experiments, especially focusing on cracking resistance and shear strength of HSC dry joints. It can be concluded that the use of HSC can improve the cracking resistance, shear strength, and ductility of monolithic, single-keyed and three-keyed specimens. The experimental results obtained from tests were compared with the AASHTO 2003 design provisions. The AASHTO 2003 provision underestimates the shear capacity of single-keyed dry joint C50 and C70 HSC specimens, underestimates the shear strength of three-keyed dry joint C70 HSC specimens, and overestimates the shear capacity of three-keyed dry joint C50 HSC specimens.

Hips of the Golden and Labrador retrievers in Korea were evaluated with the University of Pennsylvania Hip Improvement Program (PennHIP) and the severity of joint laxity and degenerative joint disease (DJD) were compared to the PennHIP database. The distraction index (DI) of domestic Golden and Labrador retrievers was significantly higher than the DI of the PennHIP database. In the two breeds, the prevalence of DJD increased according to the DI. However, the severity of DJD did not show a positive correlation with the DI. Overweight dogs and dogs kept indoors showed more severe DJD and more prevalence of clinical signs. This report is thought to be the first case presentation of a large population of Golden and Labrador retrievers in Korea and the findings are representing the overall level of canine hip dysplasia (CHD) of domestic Retrievers, as the PennHIP method was not available in Korea until 2001. We can respect that the stock of retrievers can have a tighter hip joint through control of CHD using an accurate diagnostic method keyed to a phenotype especially concern for joint laxity using PennHIP method and an organized screening program. The clinical manifestation of dysplastic dog can be reduced through control of bodyweight and the environment with regular monitoring the hips with concern for joint laxity using PennHIP method.

본 연구는 기존의 이론을 배경으로 전단키에 영향을 미치는 전달전달의 요소가 포함된 기본식을 산정하여, 접합부의 유형에 따라 구체적으로 전단강도를 예측하는 방법을 제안하였다. 접합부 콘크리트와 횡보강철근의 강도 및 장부호과를 고려한 프리캐스트 콘크리트 전단키 접합부의 기본극한강도식은 수정 Mohor-Coulomb의 파괴기준과 항복선의 도입에 의하여 전개하였고, 극한전단능력의 근사해는 상하계법에 의한 극치해석의 수법을 이용하여 구하고 여기에 재료의 유효강도계수를 도입하였다. 또한, 지존의 실험결과와 비교하여 그 적용성을 고찰하였다.

This paper presents a study on the behaviour of the joints of segmental concrete bridges with external prestressing, focusing on the structural response of dry non-epoxied joints with shear keys. A Finite Element joint model to study such structures is validated modelling eight concrete panel tests. The most important feature of this model is that it has been validated with experimental tests on concrete panels which were specifically designed to fail in shear. Interface elements are used to reproduce the non linear behaviour of the joint and parameters deduced from the tests are used to define the constitutive law of these elements. This joint model is of great importance because it will permit the development of a structural model that faithfully reproduces the behaviour of these structures under combined flexure and shear and the study of its global behaviour after the opening of the joints. Interesting conclusions about the behaviour of the dry joints, about the contribution of the different mechanisms transferring shear (friction and cohesion) and about the shear stress distribution in the joint have been reached.

In the precast segmental method of construction, segments of a structure are precast, assembled, and tied together by post-tensioning to form the structure. Shear strength and behavior of points in precast concrete structures are important problems in the design of these structures. An experimental program was set up study the shear behavior of precast concrete shear keys. experimental models of keyed joints include a single key, representing one of a series include the shear key shape, d/h ratio(1/4, 1/5, 1/7), and inclined angle (45。 60。 75。). Two different types of joints, i.e., epoxied joint and dry joints were studied. From the present tests, it is found that epoxied joints have higher shear strength than those of dry joints, and that high d/h ratio keys have higher shear strength than those of low d/h ratio keys. The keys with 60。-inclined angle shows the highest shear strength among various angles.
