Reinforced concrete deep beams are commonly used in many structural applications, including transfer girders, pile caps, foundation walls, and offshore structures. The existing design methods were developed and calibrated using normal strength concrete test results, and their applicability th HSC deep beams must be assessed. For the shear strength prediction of high-strength concrete(HSC) deep beams, this paper proposed Softened Strut-and-Tie Model(SSTM) considered HSC and bending moment effect. The shear strength predictions of the refined model, the formulas the ACI 318-02 Appendix A STM, and Eq. of ACI 318-99 11.8 are compared with the collected experimental data of 74 HSC deep beams with compressive strength in the range of 49-78MPa . It is shown the shear strength of deep beam calculated by those equations are conservative on comparing test results. The comparison shows that the performance of the proposed SSTM is better than the ACI Code approach for all the parameters under comparison. The parameters reviewed include concrete strength, the shear span-depth ratio, and the ratio of horizontal and vertical reinforcement. The proposed SSTM gave a mean predicted to experimental ratio of 0.99, 32 percent higher than ACI 318-02 Code, however with the low coefficient variation.

Soils are mostly nonhomogeneous and anisotropic in nature. In this study, nonhomogeneity and anisotropy of soil are taken into consideration by assuming that the cohesion increases with depth linearly and also varies with respect to direction at a particular point. A three-dimensional rotational failure mechanism is adopted, and then a three-dimensional stability analysis of slope is carried out with the failure surface in the shape of a curvilinear cone in virtue of the limit analysis method. A quasistatic approach is used to develop stability charts in nonhomogeneous and anisotropic soils. One can easily read the safety factors from the charts without the need for iterative procedures for safety factors calculation. The charts are of practical importance to prevent a plane failure in excavation slope whether it is physically constrained or not. Then the most suitable location of piles within the reinforced slope in nonhomogeneous and anisotropic soils is explored, as well as the interactions of nonhomogeneous and anisotropic coefficients on pile reinforcement effects. The results indicate that piles are more effective when they are located between the middle and the crest of the slope, and the nonhomogeneous coefficient as well as the anisotropic coefficient will not only influence the most suitable location for piles but also affect the calculated safety factor of existing reinforced slope. In addition, the two coefficients will interact with each other on the effect on slope reinforcement.

The use of compaction grouting evolved in 1950's to correct structural settlement of buildings. Over the almost 50 years, the technology has been developed and is currently used in wide range of applications. Compaction grouting, the injection of a very stiff, 'zero-slump' mortar grout under relatively high pressure, displaces and compacts soils. It can effectively repair natural or man-made soil strength deficiencies in variety of soil formations. Major applications of compaction grouting include densifying loose soils or fill voids caused by sinkholes, poorly compacted fills, broken utilities, improper dewatering, or soft ground tunneling excavation. Other applications include preventing liquefaction, re-leveling settled structures, and using compaction grout bulbs as structural elements of minipiles or underpinning. In this paper, on the basis of the case history constructed in this year, a study has been performed to analyze the basic mechanism of the compaction grouting. Also, the effectiveness of the ground improvement and the bearing capacity of the compaction pile has been verified by the Cone Penetration Test(CPT) and Load Test. Relatively uniform compaction grouting column could be maintained by planning the quality control in the course of grouting. And, the Qualify Control Plan has been conceived using grout pressure, volume of grout and drilling depth.

The monopile-friction wheel hybrid foundation is an innovative solution for offshore structures which are mainly subjected to large lateral eccentric load induced by winds, waves, and currents during their service life. This paper presents an extensive numerical analysis to investigate the lateral load and moment bearing performances of hybrid foundation, considering various potential influencing factors in sand-overlaying-clay soil deposits, with the complex lateral loads being simplified into a resultant lateral load acting at a certain height above the mudline. Finite element models are generated and validated against experimental data where very good agreements are obtained. The failure mechanisms of hybrid foundations under lateral loading are illustrated to demonstrate the effect of the friction wheel in the hybrid system. Parametric study shows that the load bearing performances of the hybrid foundation is significantly dependent of wheel diameter, pile embedment depth, internal friction angle of sand, loading eccentricity (distance from the load application point to the ground level), and the thickness of upper sandy layer. Simplified empirical formulae is proposed based on the numerical results to predict the corresponding lateral load and moment bearing capacities of the hybrid foundation for design application.

Reinforced concrete (RC) deep beams are critical structural elements used in offshore pile caps, rectangular cross-section water tanks, silo structures, transfer beams in high-rise buildings, and bent caps. As a result of the low shear span ratio to effective depth (a/d) in deep beams, arch action occurs, which leads to shear failure. Several studies have been carried out to improve the shear resistance of RC deep beams and avoid brittle fracture behavior in recent years. This study was performed to investigate the behavior of RC deep beams numerically and experimentally with different reinforcement arrangements. Deep beams with four different reinforcement arrangements were produced and tested under monotonic static loading in the study's scope. The horizontal and vertical shear reinforcement members were changed in the test specimens to obtain the effects of different reinforcement arrangements. However, the rebars used for tension and the vertical shear reinforcement ratio were constant. In addition, the behavior of each deep beam was obtained numerically with commercial finite element analysis (FEA) software ABAQUS, and the findings were compared with the experimental results. The results showed that the reinforcements placed diagonally significantly increased the load-carrying and energy absorption capacities of RC deep beams. Moreover, an apparent plastic plateau was seen in the load-displacement curves of these test specimens in question (DE-2 and DE-3). This finding also indicated that diagonally located reinforcements improve displacement ductility. Also, the numerical results showed that the FEM method could be used to accurately predict RC deep beams'behavior with different reinforcement arrangements.

In Taiwan, an efficient approach for enhancing the stability of colluvium slopes is the drilled shaft method. For slopes with drilled shafts, the soil arching effect is one of the primary factors influencing slope stability and intertwines to the failure mechanism of the pile-soil system. In this study, the contribution of soil arching effect to slope stability is evaluated using the FEM software (Plaxis 3D) with the built-in strength reduction technique. The result indicates the depth of the failure surface is influenced by the S/D ratio (the distance to the diameter of piles), which can reflect the contribution of the soil arching effect to soil stability. When α (rock inclination angles)=β (slope angles) is considered and the S/D ratio=4, the failure surface of the slope is not significantly influenced by the piles. Overall, the soil arching effect is more significant on α=β, especially for the steep slopes. Additionally, the soil arching effect has been included in the proposed stability charts. The proposed charts were validated through two case studies, including that of the well-known Woo-Wan-Chai field in Taiwan. The differences in safety factor (FoS) values between the referenced literature and this study was approximately 4.9%.

In this application study, field pilot tests were performed to evaluate the validity of a proposed formula between the exerted electrical energy and SPT N-value based on the result of the basic study. Measurement sensors and recording system were developed to obtain exerted motor current and drilling depth in a field. By using the correlation formula proposed in the basic study, the measured motor current and boring speed were applied to predict SPT N-value and the predicted N-values were compared to SPT N-value of site exploration. From the comparisons it is verified that the exerted electrical energy to bore ground might be used to predict SPT N-value and pile tip location.

양질의 퇴적식 퇴비생선을 위한 일환으로 돈분과 분쇄왕겨를 동일비율로 혼화 퇴적 후 뒤집기 횟수를 달리하여 퇴적깊이별로 70일동안 부숙시키면서 이화학성 및 미생물상을 조사하였다. 수분함량과 pH는 부숙화가 진행됨에 따라 뒤집기 횟수가 많을수록 감소하였으나 퇴적 깊이가 깊을수록 높은 값을 보였다. C/N율과 $NH_4-N$함량은 부숙화가 진행됨에 따라 감소한 반면 $NO_3-N$함량은 증가하였고 뒤집기 회수에 따라 이들의 값은 각기 다르게 나타났다. 깊이별로는 $NH_4-N$와 $NO_3-N$함량이 대부분 표층일수록 높았고 그 결과 $NH_3$가스 발생도 표층에서 높았으며 부숙화가 진행됨에 따라 점차 감소되었다. 퇴비화 70일째에 있어서 미생물상의 분포중 총 호기성 세균은 $10^7{\sim}10^9CFU\;g^{-1}$로 뒤집기 횟수가 증가할수록 표층에서 높은 편이었으며 사상균은 표층으로부터 60cm 부위까지는 $10^2{\sim}10^4CFU\;g^{-1}$ 유지되었으나 부숙화가 진행됨에 따라 내부에는 거의 생존하지 못하였다. 셀루로스 분해균과 호열성균은 각각 $10^6{\sim}10^8CFU\;g^{-1}$, $10^6{\sim}10^9CFU\;g^{-1}$ 으로써 2회 뒤집기의 30cm이상인 심층일수록 높은 경향이었다. 이상과 같이 깊이별 미생물상 분포의 경향은 뒤집기 횟수가 증가함에 따라 층위별 밀도차이를 줄일수 있어 부숙촉진을 위해서 2~3회 정도 뒤집기를 해야 하나 그 이상을 상회할 경우 수분부족으로 오히려 부숙이 지연될 우려가 있다고 판단된다.

최근 간척지를 활용한 대규모 수출 원예 단지에 대한 수요가 증대되고 있고, 대규모 시설원예 단지 조성을 위한 현안 중에 하나는 경량 온실용 기초 설계 기준을 확립하는 것이다. 이를 위해 연약지반 기초 보강 방법에 관한 사전 연구들을 검토하였다. 대상 공법으로는 스파이럴, 나무, 쇄석 다짐 말뚝(팽이) 및 PF 공법이며, 성능 검증을 위해 인발저항력, 지내력, 침하량 측정 등의 시험이 수행되었다. 인발저항력은 동일한 직경에서 근입 깊이가 증가할수록 저항력이 상승하는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 스파이럴과 나무 말뚝 기초의 성능을 비교하자면, 유사한 근입비와 마찰 면적을 갖는 기준에 대하여 스파이럴 말뚝의 인발저항력 0.8kN, 나무 말뚝은 인발저항력 1.1kN로 근소하게 나무 말뚝의 성능이 우수하다고 판단되었다. 추가적으로, 일정 근입비(L/D)의 범위에서의 직경 변화에 따른 인발저항력을 비교하였다. 근입비 10~12.1 범위에서는 직경 250mm구간, 근입비 14.6~16.7 범위에서의 직경 300mm구간에서 급격한 상승값을 보였으며, 근입비 범위에 따라 인발저항력 증가 폭이 다르게 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 지반 지내력 검토를 위한 재하시험 결과의 경우, 상이한 보강 방법, 직경, 관입 깊이 등의 영향으로 단순 비교하는 것에 한계가 있지만, 나무 말뚝 105kN/㎡, 팽이 말뚝 826kN/㎡, PF방법 300kN/㎡ 수준의 최대 허용지지력을 보였다. 위 조건의 경우에, 팽이 말뚝, PF방법, 나무 말뚝 순으로 높은 지내력을 나타냈다. 간척지 기초 시공공법 타당성 검토를 위하여, 일부 국한된 시험 조건하에 인발저항력, 허용지지력, 침하량 측정 등 시험 평가 결과를 비교 검토하였다. 기초 보강 방법 별 일관성있는 경향을 파악하는데 한계가 있었지만, 풍속40m/s에서 온실에서 받는 인발력이 20kN수준이고(Yu 등, 2012), '97 한국형 유리온실 표준설계도에 명시된 온실의 기초 지내력 기준이 50kN/㎡인 점을 고려한다면 지내력 105kN/㎡ ~ 826kN/㎡ 범위의 기초보강 공법인 팽이, 나무말뚝 및 PF방법 모두 간척지 온실 기초에 적용하기 충분한 공법으로 간주 된다. 장기 침하량 모니터링 및 기초 보강 방법 별 수렴성과 재현성이 확보된 실증 데이터 보완을 통해, 온실 유형별 구조안정성과 경제성을 동시에 만족시킬 수 있는 기초 방식 선정과 설계 가이드라인 제시가 가능할 것이라고 판단된다.
