The investigation on the behaviour of cold-formed stainless steel non-slender circular hollow section columns is presented in this paper. The normal strength austenitic stainless steel type 304 and the high strength duplex materials (austenitic-ferritic approximately equivalent to EN 1.4462 and UNS S31803) were considered in this study. The finite element method has been used to carry out the investigation. The columns were compressed between fixed ends at different column lengths. The geometric and material nonlinearities have been included in the finite element analysis. The column strengths and failure modes were predicted. An extensive parametric study was carried out to study the effects of normal and high strength materials on cold-formed stainless steel non-slender circular hollow section columns. The column strengths predicted from the finite element analysis were compared with the design strengths calculated using the American Specification, Australian/New Zealand Standard and European Code for cold-formed stainless steel structures. The numerical results showed that the design rules specified in the American, Australian/New Zealand and European specifications are generally unconservative for the cold-formed stainless steel non-slender circular hollow section columns of normal and high strength materials, except for the short columns and some of the high strength stainless steel columns. Therefore, different values of the imperfection factor and limiting slenderness in the European Code design rules were proposed for cold-formed stainless steel non-slender circular hollow section columns.

This study was performed to evaluate the mechanical properties of permeable polymer concrete using fillers and unsaturated polyester resin. The following conclusions were drawn; 1. The unit weight was in the range of 1, 663~ l, 892kg/$cm^3$, the weights of those concrete were decreased 18~28% than that of the normal cement concrete. 2. The highest strength was achieved by fly ash filled permeable polymer concrete, it was increased 22% by compressive strength, 190% by tensile strength and 192% by bending strength than that of the normal cement concrete, respectively. 3. The external strength of permeable pipe was in the range of 3, 083~3, 793kg/m, the external strengths of those concrete were increased 2~26% than that of the normal cement concrete. Accordingly, these permeable polymer concrete pipe can be used to the members and structures which need external strength. 4. The static modulus of elasticity was in the range of $5.7{\times} 10^4 ~ 15.4{\times} 10{^4}kg/cm^2 $, which was approximately 35~64% of that of the normal cement concrete. Fly ash filled permeable polymer concrete was showed relatively higher elastic modulus. The poisson's number of permeable polymer concrete was less than that of the normal cement concrete. 5.

Fly ash filled permeable polymer concrete was in the range of$0.58~8.88 {\ell}/cm^2/hr$, , and it was larglely dependent upon the mixing ratio. These concrete can be used to the structures which need water permeability.

From the previous experimental test results, it has shown that shear that shear strength in lightweight concrete beams was about 85% on that in normal concrete beams. It is speculated that shear connectors in composite beams of steel and lightweight concrete associated with the longitudinal shear strength decrease more in strength than those in normal concrete. So this paper, as a study on strength of shear connectors in composite beams of steel and lightweight concrete slabs, has a purpose to compare the strength formula resulted from the push-out test of thirteen solid slab and four deck Plate slab with the established ones, and then to suggest a proper strength formula of the shear connectors. The established strength formula of the shear connectors is prescribed for $P_ps = 0.50A_s . \sqrt{f_C . E_C}$by AISC coed, but from the experimental test results the strength values of the shear connectors in lightweignt concrete slabs shows about 70% on those of the shear connectors in normal concrete slabs by AISC code. Therefore, as a strength formula this paper suggests to multiply the established strength formula by reduction factor$(\varphi=0.7)$.

Objective: This study investigated the different in isokinetic peak strength of the knee joint, and kinetics and kinematics in drop landing pattern of lower limb between the patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) patients and normal. Method: 30 adult females were divided into the PFPS (age: 23.13±2.77 yrs; height: 160.97±3.79 cm, weight: 51.19±4.86 kg) and normal group (age: 22.80±2.54 yrs, height: 164.40±5.77 cm, weight: 56.14±8.16 kg), with 15 subjects in each group. To examine the knee isokinetic peak strength, kinematics and kinetics in peak vertical ground reaction force during drop landing. Results: The knee peak torque (Nm) and relative strength (%) were significantly weaker PFPS group than normal group. In addition, PFPS group had significantly greater hip flexion angle (°) than normal group. Moreover, normal group had significantly greater moment of hip abduction, hip internal rotation, and left ankle eversion than PFPS group, and PFPS group had significantly greater moment of knee internal rotation. Finally, there was significant differences between the groups at anteroposterior center of pressure. Conclusion: The PFPS patients had weakened knee strength, and which can result in an unstable landing pattern and cause of more stress in the knee joints despite to effort of reduce vertical ground reaction force.

In this study, it is speculated that the special admixture can be mixed with ERCO beforehand to prevent adsorption of cement and AE at the time of contamination together with water, and the change in the amount of special admixture preliminarily added to ERCO We will try to analyze the influence on normal strength mortar. As a result, the flow quantity, the air quantity, the compressive strength and the flexural strength were improved as the added amount of the special admixture was increased, and When the special admixture with the addition amount of ERCO 3% was added, the strength was rather lowered. Therefore, it was found that the optimum amount of special admixture added to ERCO was 2%.

In this study, the compressive strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity were evaluated according to the elapsed time on concrete mixed with normal and lightweight aggregates at early age. For evaluation in various strength ranges, the design compressive strength was set to 30, 45, and 60MPa and evaluated. As a result of the experiment, the compressive strength of concrete mixed with lightweight aggregates developed 5MPa earlier compared to normal aggregate concrete, and the UPV showed a similar tendency.

The purpose of this study is to achieve a sufficient fluidity without segregation for normal compressive strength grade concrete mixture. The major obstacle of achieving fluidity of normal compressive strength grade concrete mixture is segregation. Therefore, in this research, the proper use of VMA was suggested to prevent segregation.
