구조용 형강을 사용하는 격자형 합성바닥판은 비교적 신속한 시공과 보수시 교통통제를 최소화할 수 있는 장점으로 인해 1930년대 이후 현재까지 다양한 단면상세가 연구개발 되고 있다. 강형의 상부 일부만 콘크리트와 합성된 형태를 취하는 격자형 합성바닥판은 강형이 완전히 매입되는 형태에 비해 자중이 작고 공장에서 프리캐스트 제작이 가능하여 원거리의 현장이나 산악지역과 같이 건설조건이 열악한 경우에도 적용이 가능한 구조이다. 본 연구에서는 형강이 노출된 격자형 강합성 바닥판을 각종 기반시설물의 수평지지구조에 적용하고자 형강과 콘크리트의 합성을 위한 전단연결부의 형식과 격자형 구조에서 형강을 서로 연결하는 가로막대의 간격, 상부 콘크리트 슬래브의 두께 등을 변수로 휨실험을 하였고, 휨성능 및 합성거동을 비교 평가하였다. 이를 통해 설계변수 변화에 따른 구조거동의 변화를 비교 검토할 수 있었고, 적절한 전단연결방식 및 단면제원에 대한 기본자료를 얻을 수 있었다.

Prefabricated hybrid wind turbine towers (WTTs) are promising due to height increase. This study proposes the use of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) to develop a new type of WTT without the need to use reinforcement. It is demonstrated that the UHPC WTT structure without reinforcing bars could achieve performance similar to that of reinforced concrete WTTs. To simplify the design of WTT, a design approach for the calculation of stresses at the horizontal joints of a WTT is proposed. The stress distribution near the region of the horizontal joint of the WTT structure under normal operating conditions and different load actions is studied using the proposed approach, which is validated by the finite element method. A further parametric study shows that the degree of prestressing and the bending moment both significantly affect the principal stress. The shear-to-torsion ratio also shows a significant influence on the principal tensile stress.

Closed steel supports of different shapes are used in mining and underground constructions. The supports are prefabricated from rolled, usually robust, steel profiles. The load carrying capacity of a support is considerably influenced by the active loading and passive forces. The passive forces are induced by interactions between the support and the surrounding rock mass. The analysis herein comprises three parts: The first part consists of structural geometry processing. The second part involves finding the numerical solution of a statically indeterminate structure for a specified load. The third part is calculation of the load carrying capacity and the components of internal forces and deformations. For this, the force method and numerical integration are used. The Winkler model is applied when the support interacts with the surrounding environment. The load carrying capacity is limited by the slip resistance of the connected parts and it is limited by reaching the ultimate state of the profile. This paper serves as a comprehensive reference for the determination of the load carrying capacity of closed steel supports and includes stepwise derivations of the governing formulas.

프리캐스트 방식에 의해 제작이 가능한 격자형 강합성 바닥판의 이음부는 콘크리트 전단키와 고장력볼트 체결로 구성될 수 있으며, 이와같은 이음부 자체에 대한 휨 및 전단성능은 부재요소에 대한 실험을 통해 분석된 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 실제 바닥판 구조시스템에서 이음부에 의한 횡방향 하중전달 거동을 분석하고자, 길이 2.5m 및 폭 1m의 단위 바닥판 모듈 한쌍에 이음부를 설치한 실험체를 제작하고 중심 및 편심가력 휨실험을 하였다. 이음부에 하중이 직접 가해지는 중심재하 조건에서 고장력볼트의 설치개수가 30cm 간격 9개에서 60cm 간격 4개로 줄어 들 경우, 재하단계에 따라 이음부의 회전이 비교적 더 크게 증가하고, 이에 따라 바닥판 횡방향으로의 하중전달 정도가 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 그러나, 한쪽 바닥판의 중심에 집중하중이 가해지는 편심재하 조건의 경우에는 횡방향 하중전달 거동에 큰 차이가 없었다. 하중 재하방법별로 이음부의 거동을 비교한 결과, 집중하중에 대한 바닥판 횡방향으로의 하중분배 및 전달량은 이음부 자체의 성능뿐만 아니라 바닥판 슬래브의 펀칭전단에 의해서도 제한되는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한, 펀칭 전단파괴가 발생할 때까지 이음부의 고장력볼트가 항복하지 않은 점을 고려할 때, 이음부 고장력볼트의 설치개수를 4개에서 9개로 증가시키는 것은 실질적으로 강도 보다는 이음부 및 바닥판의 휨강성 성능 증가에 더 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 사료된다.

PURPOSE. To compare the fracture resistance and the mode of failure of endodontically treated teeth restored with different post-core systems. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Root canal treatment was performed on 40 maxillary incisors and the samples were divided into four groups of 10 each. For three experimental groups post space preparation was done and teeth were restored with cast post-core (Group B), stainless steel post with composite core (Group C) and glass fiber post with composite core using adhesive resin cement (Group D). Control group (A) samples were selected with intact coronal structure. All the samples were prepared for ideal abutment preparation. All the samples were subjected to a load of 0.5 mm/min at $130^{circ}$.until fracture occurred using the universal testing machine. The fracture resistance was measured and the data were analyzed statistically. The fracture above the embedded resin was considered to be favorable and the fracture below the level was considered as unfavorable. The statistical analysis of fracture resistance between different groups was carried out with t-test. For the mode of failure the statistical analysis was carried out by Kruskal-Wallis test and Chi-Square test. RESULTS. For experimental group Vs control group the fracture resistance values showed significant differences (P<.05). For the mode of failure the chi-square value is 16.1610, which means highly significant (P=.0009) statistically. CONCLUSION. Endodontically treated teeth without post core system showed the least fracture resistance demonstrating the need to reinforce the tooth. Stainless steel post with composite core showed the highest fracture resistance among all the experimental groups. Teeth restored with the Glass fiber post showed the most favorable fractures making them more amenable to the re-treatment.

Due to the unique construction method of modular steel buildings (MSBs) with units prefabricated fully off the site and assembled quickly on the site, the inter-module connection for easy operation and overall performance of the system were key issues. However, it was a lack of relevant research on the system-level performance of MSBs. This study investigated the seismic performance of two-storey modular steel structure with a proposed vertical rotary inter-module connection. Three full-scale quasi-static tests, with and without corrugated steel plate and its combination, were carried out to evaluate and compare their seismic behaviour. The hysteretic performance, skeleton curves, ductile performance, stiffness degradation, energy dissipation capacity, and deformation pattern were clarified. The results showed that good ductility and plastic deformation ability of such modular steel structures. Two lateral-force resistance mechanisms with different layout combinations were also discussed in detail. The corrugated steel plate could significantly improve the lateral stiffness and bearing capacity of the modular steel structure. The cooperative working mechanism of modules and inter-module connections was further analyzed. When the lateral stiffness of upper and lower modular structures was close, limited bending moment transfer may be considered for the inter-module connection. While a large lateral stiffness difference existed initially between the upper and lower structures, an obvious gap occurred at the inter-module connection, and this gap may significantly influence the bending moments transferred by the inter-module connections. Meanwhile, several design recommendations of inter-module connections were also given for the application of MSBs.

Cold-formed steel structures are increasingly attractive due to their benefits of good mechanical performance and constructional advantages. However, this type of construction is still not fully exploited as a result of the acknowledged difficulties involved in forming construction-efficient and cost-effective connections. Furthermore, there is a lack of information on the structural behavior of the cold-formed steel connections. In this study, the research on various cold-formed steel connections was comprehensively reviewed from both fundamental and structural points of view, based on the available experimental and analytical data. It reveals that the current design codes and guidelines for cold-formed steel connections tend to focus more on the individual bearing capacity of the fasteners rather than the overall structural behavior of the connections. Significant future work remains to be conducted on the structural performance of cold-formed steel connection. In addition, extensive previous research has been carried out to propose and evaluate an economical and efficient connection system that is obtained from the conventional connecting techniques used in the hot-rolled industry. These connecting techniques may not be suitable, however, as they have been adopted from hot-rolled steel portal frames due to the thinness of the sheet in cold-formed steels. The review demonstrates that with the increasing demand for cold-formed steel constructions throughout the world, it is crucial to develop an efficient connection system that can be prefabricated and easily assembled on site.

The performance of an Industrialised Building System (IBS) consists of prefabricated reinforced concrete components, is greatly affected by the behaviour of the connection between beam and columns. The structural characteristics parameters of a beam-to-column connection like rotational stiffness, strength and ductility can be explained by load-rotation relationship of a full scale H-subframe under gravitational load. Furthermore, the connection's degree of rigidity directly influences the behaviour of the whole frame. In this research, rotational behaviour of a patented innovative beam-to-column connection with unique benefits like easy installation, no wet work, no welding work at assembly site, using a hybrid behaviour of steel and concrete, easy replacement ability, and compatibility with architecture was investigated. The proposed IBS beam-to-column connection includes precast concrete components with embedded steel end connectors. Two full-scale H-subframes constructed with a new IBS and conventional cast in-situ reinforced concrete system beam-to-column connections were tested under incremental static loading. In this paper, load-rotation relationship and ratio of the rigidity of IBS beam-to-column connection are studied and compared with conventional monolithic reinforced concrete connection. It is concluded that this new IBS beam-to-column connection benefits from more rotational ductility than the conventional reinforced concrete connection. Furthermore, the semi-rigid IBS connection rigidity ratio is about 44% of a full rigid connection.
