강바닥판 교량은 비교적 얇은 강판을 서로 용접에 의해 연결한 구조물로서 많은 양의 용접을 피할 수 없다. 강바닥판의 횡리브복부판에서는 전단력과 비틀림 모멘트가 작용하는 동시에 종리브의 비틀림으로 인한 면내 면외 변형이 작용하기 때문에 종리브-횡리브 복부판-데크플레이트 교차부 및 횡리브복부판 컷아웃(슬릿)부에서 응력집중 현상이 두드러지게 발생하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 교차부 및 컷아웃(슬릿)부에서의 응력집중 현상 완화 및 피로성능 개선에 유리한 구조상세를 도출하고자 교차부에 스캘럽 유무 및 횡리브 복부판면과 일치되도록 종리브 내부에 설치하는 다이아프램의 설치 유무를 매개변수로 구조해석을 수행하였다. 다이아프램을 설치하는 동시에 교차부에 스캘럽을 두지 않을 경우 교차부 및 컷아웃(슬릿)부에서 최대응력 감소효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 교차부 및 컷아웃부에서의 응력집중 현상을 완화시켜 피로성능 개선에 기대효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다.

The application of composite steel-concrete slabs with profiled steel sheeting has increased, due to the various advantages in relation to reinforced concrete slabs such as, the reduced thickness, the reduced amount of lost formwork needed, as well as the speed of execution. The loss of longitudinal shear resistance is, generally, the governing design mode for simply supported spans of common lengths. For common distributed loadings, the composite behaviour is influenced by the partial shear connection between the concrete and the steel sheeting. The present research work is intended to contribute to improving the ultimate limit state behaviour of composite slabs using end anchorage. Eurocode 4, Part 1.1 (EN 1994-1-1) provides an analytical methodology for predicting the increase of longitudinal resistance, achieved by using shear studs welded through the steel sheeting as the end anchorage mechanism. The code does not supply an analytical methodology for other kinds of end anchorage so, additional tests or studies are needed to prove the effectiveness of these types of anchorage. The influence of end anchorage mechanisms provided by transverse rebars at the ends of simply supported composite slabs is analysed in this paper. Two experimental programmes were carried out, the first to determine the resistance provided by the new end anchorage mechanism and the second to analyse its influence on the behaviour of simply supported composite slabs.

This paper presents a novel analytical formulation for the analysis of composite beams with partial shear interaction stiffened by a bolted longitudinal plate accounting for time effects, such as creep and shrinkage. The model is derived by means of the principle of virtual work using a displacement-based formulation. The particularity of this approach is that the partial interaction behaviour is assumed to exist between the top slab and the joist as well as between the joist and the bolted longitudinal stiffening plate, therefore leading to a three-layered structural representation. For this purpose, a novel finite element is derived and presented. Its accuracy is validated based on short-and long-term analyses for the particular cases of full shear interaction and partial shear interaction of two layers for which solutions in closed form are available in the literature. A parametric study is carried out considering different stiffening arrangements to investigate the influence on the short-and long-term behaviour of the composite beam of the shear connection stiffness between the concrete slab and the steel joist, the stiffness of the plate-to-beam connection, the properties of the longitudinal plate and the concrete properties. The values of the deflection obtained from the finite element simulations are compared against those calculated using the effective flexural rigidity in accordance with EC5 guidelines for the behaviour of elastic multi-layered beams with flexible connection and it is shown how the latter well predicts the structural response. The proposed numerical examples highlight the ease of use of the proposed approach in determining the effectiveness of different retrofitting solutions at service conditions.

Recently, steel-concrete composite slab decks have been widely used as highway bridge decks. In the construction of the composite slab decks, it is necessary to join two adjacent blocked bottom plates to form one unite in the longitudinal direction. In this paper, several types of longitudinal direction joints for Robinson type composite slab decks ared proposed herein and static bending test are carried out by using slab specimens. And the stress and deformation of the tensile grip connection with high strength bolts are discussed by using three-dimensional elastic-plastic FEM.

Composite special moment frame is one of the systems that are utilized in areas with low to high seismicity to deal with earthquake forces. Composite moment frames are composed of reinforced concrete columns (RC) and steel beams (S); therefore, the connection region is a combination of steel and concrete materials. In current study, a three dimensional finite element model of composite connections is developed. These connections are used in special composite moment frame, between reinforced concrete columns and steel beams (RCS). Finite element model is discussed as a most reliable and low cost method versus experimental procedures. Based on a tested connection model by Cheng and Chen (2005), the finite element model has been developed under cyclic loading and is verified with experimental results. A good agreement between finite element model and experimental results was observed. The connection configuration contains Face Bearing Plates (FBPs), Steel Band Plates (SBPs) enveloping around the RC column just above and below the steel beam. Longitudinal column bars pass through the connection with square ties around them. The finite element model represented a stable response up to the first cycles equal to 4.0% drift, with moderately pinched hysteresis loops and then showed a significant buckling in upper flange of beam, as the in test model.

Among the various alternatives to make a steel tubular member connection, making a slotted and gusset plate welded connection is one of the most frequently preferred alternatives. This type of connection is essentially an end connection that is made by slotting the tube longitudinally, inserting the gusset plate and then placing longitudinal fillet welds at the tube-to-plate interface. In this paper an experimental study on the behaviour of such connections in stainless steel is presented. 24 specimens were tested under concentrically applied axial tensile forces for varying tube-to-gusset plate weld lengths. Both circular and box section members were considered in the test program. Load-deformation curves were obtained and comparisons were made in terms of strength and ductility. The results obtained from the study were then critically examined and compared with currently available design guidance for slotted gusset plate welded tubular end connections. It is noted that no specific rules exist in international specifications on structural stainless steel which cover the design of such connections. Therefore, the results of this study are compared with the existing design rules for carbon steel.

강바닥판 피로손상을 억제할 수 있는 유효한 방법의 하나로 데크 플레이트의 판 두께를 증가시키거나 세로리브의 보강 등에 의한 강성 증가를 고려할 수 있는데, 이 강성증가는 일반적으로 윤하중에 의한 강바닥판의 국부변형 억제 등에 효과가 있을 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 강바닥판교의 피로균열이 빈번히 발생해 가장 문제가 되는 U-rib와 가로리브 연결 상세부의 발생응력을 최소화할 수 있도록 벌크헤드플레이트나 수직리브와 같은 보강상세의 부착에 따른 변수로 정밀 구조해석을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 벌크헤드플레이트는 전체적으로 연결 상세부의 주응력을 경감시키나, 피로균열이 발생되는 용접 지단부에서는 오히려 응력집중이 커지는 경향을 나타내는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 수직리브는 용접 지단부에서 응력집중을 경감시키는 효과를 나타내어 벌크헤드플레이트의 보강보다는 수직리브의 보강이 더 효율적일 것으로 판단된다.

초고층 빌딩의 수요가 증가함에 따라 고강도 강관의 수요 또한 함께 증가하고 있다. 이에 고강도 고인성의 600MPa급 강관의 접합부 내력 연구가 필요하게 되었다. 또한 현행국내기준에는 강관의 경우 항복응력 360MPa 이하에 설계식을 적용하도록 되어 있다. 즉, 고강도강재를 이용한 600MPa 강관의 경우 현행기준을 적용할 수 없으므로 600MPa급 고강도 강관의 거셋플레이트 접합부의 내력실험 및 유한요소해석을 통하여 기존 설계식의 적용가능성을 조사하고 접합부의 거동을 연구하고자 한다. 특히, 본 논문에서는 원형강관에 길이 방향으로 거셋플레이트가 접합된 접합부에 횡력(수평력)이 작용하였을 때의 거동을 다루었다. 유한요소해석 및 실험결과를 설계식과 비교해보면, 고강도 강재에서는 기존의 설계식들이 56~79%로 과소평가되었다.

Many studies on the application of stainless steels as structural materials in buildings and infra-structures have been performed thanks to superior characteristics of corrosion resistance, fire resistance and aesthetic appeal. Experimental investigation to estimate the ultimate strength and fracture mode of the fillet-welded connections of cold-formed austenitic stainless steel (STS304L) with better intergranular corrosion resistance than that of austenitic stainless steel, STS304 commonly used has carried out by authors. Specimens were fabricated to fail by base metal fracture not weld metal fracture with main variables of weld lengths according to loading direction. All specimens showed a block shear fracture mode. In this paper, finite element analysis model was developed to predict the ultimate behaviors of welded connection and its validity was verified through the comparison with test results. Since the block shear behavior of welded connection due to stress triaxiality and shear-lag effects is different from that of bolted connection, stress and strain distributions in the critical path of tensile and shear fracture section were investigated. Test and analysis strengths were compared with those by current design specifications such as AISC, EC3 and existing researcher's proposed equations. In addition, through parametric analysis with extended variables, the conditions of end distance and longitudinal weld length for block shear fracture and tensile fracture were suggested.
