본 연구에서는 국내 개량형 PSC거더(Prestressed Concrete Girder)의 연속화 방식의 문제점과 연속텐던(Continuous Tendon)의 휨모멘트(Bending Moment) 특성을 분석하였다. 이 결과들을 바탕으로 본 연구에서는 거더 연속부의 부모멘트(Negative Moment) 제어에 효과적인 연속텐던 모델을 제안하였다. 이 모델은 연속텐던의 정착단을 거더 하부로 최대한 내리고, 거더 하부로 배치되는 텐던 구간을 늘려, 거더 중앙부의 긴장력 모멘트가 감소하더라도 연속지점부의 긴장력 모멘트를 증가시키는 방법이다. 이러한 연속텐던 모델은 거더 중앙부보다 연속지점부에서 대응해야 할 설계모멘트가 큰 합성 전 연속화 공법에 적합한 성능을 발휘할 수 있다.

To evaluate the structural integrity of the NPP containment building more rigorously, the effective prestress, which is one of the most affecting elements, needs to be estimated exactly. This paper presents the results of an experimental study to determine the effective prestress force in prestressed concrete beams. It is possible to improve the effective prestress measuring method by test beam, which is being applied for the investigation of the nuclear power plant in operation. If experimentally evaluated Lift-Off method in this study can be coupled with test beam test currently being used in in-service nuclear power plant, it is possible to measure prestress loss of the tendon and the level of the effective prestress load.

To date, many studies have been conducted for the analysis and design of reinforced concrete members with disturbed regions. However, prestressed concrete deep beams have not been the subject of many investigations. This paper presents an evaluation of the behavior and strength of three pre-tensioned concrete deep beams failed by shear and bond slip of prestressing strands using a nonlinear strut-tie model approach. In this approach, effective prestressing forces represented by equivalent external loads are gradually introduced along strand's transfer length in the nearest strut-tie model joints, the friction at the interface of main diagonal shear cracks is modeled by the aggregate interlock struts along the direction of the cracks in strut-tie model, and an algorithm considering the effect of bond slip of prestressing strands in the strut-tie model analysis and design of pre-tensioned concrete members is implemented. Through the strut-tie model analysis of pre-tensioned concrete deep beams, the nonlinear strut-tie model approach proved to present effective solutions for predicting the essential aspects of the behavior and strength of pre-tensioned concrete deep beams. The nonlinear strut-tie model approach is capable of predicting the strength and failure modes of pre-tensioned concrete deep beams including the anchorage failure of prestressing strands and, accordingly, can be employed in the practical and precise design of pre-tensioned concrete deep beams.

Recently, the number of Prestressed Concrete(PSC) bridges needed repair and retrofit because of the increase of heavy traffic loads and aging of concrete materials. But there are a few related researches about strengthening PSC bridges. In this study, the practicability of strengthening methods for PSC beam were studied by the static experimental method. PSC beams in length of 6m were made with concrete slabs. Glass fiber sheeting and external post-tensioning methods were used for strengthening PSC beams. Some beams were strengthened after cracks to investigate the applicability for cracked bridges. As a result, there strengthening methods were efficient at increasing the cracking loads and the failure load, to decrease deflection and prevent cracks. In the case of using glass fiber retrofit methods, it should be careful in the anchorage problems for preventing the bonding failure.

Friction in a post-tensioning system has a significant effect on the distribution of the prestressing force of tendons in prestressed concrete structures. However, attempts to derive friction coefficients using conventional electrical resistance strain gauges do not usually lead to reliable results, mainly due to the damage of sensors and lead wires during the insertion of strands into the sheath and during tensioning. In order to overcome these drawbacks of the existing measurement system, the Smart Strand was developed in this study to accurately measure the strain and prestressing force along the strand. In the Smart Strand, the core wire of a 7-wire strand is replaced with carbon fiber reinforced polymer in which the fiber Bragg grating sensors are embedded. As one of the applications of the Smart Strand, friction coefficients were evaluated using a full-scale test of a 20 m long beam. The test variables were the curvature, diameter, and filling ratio of the sheath. The analysis results showed the average wobble and curvature friction coefficients of 0.0038/m and 0.21/radian, respectively, which correspond to the middle of the range specified in ACI 318-08 in the U.S. and Structural Concrete Design Code in Korea. Also, the accuracy of the coefficients was improved by reducing the effective range specified in these codes by 27-34 %. This study shows the wide range of applicability of the developed Smart Strand system.

Many prefabricated concrete frame joints have been proposed, and most of them showed good seismic performance. However, there are still some limitations in the proposed fabricated joints. For example, for prefabricated prestressed concrete joints, prefabricated beams and prefabricated columns are assembled as a whole by the pre-stressed steel bar and steel strand in the beams, which brings some troubles to the construction, and the reinforcement in the core area of the joints is complex, and the mechanical mechanism is not clear. Based on the current research results, a new type of fabricated joint of prestressed concrete beams and confined concrete columns is proposed. To study the seismic performance of the joint, the quasi-static test is carried out. The test results show that the nodes exhibit good ductility and energy dissipation. According to the experimental fitting method and the "fixed point pointing" law, the resilience model of this kind of nodes is established, and compared with the experimental results, the two agree well, which can provides a certain reference for elasto-plastic seismic response analysis of this type of structure. Besides, based on the analysis of the factors affecting the shear capacity of the node core area, the formula of shear capacity of the core area of the node is proposed, and the theoretical values of the formula are consistent with the experimental value.

Recently, the using PSC with external unbonded tendons is increased. However, the behavior of external unbonded tendons is different with that of bonded internal tendon at ultimate state by compatibility condition, the slip with friction at deviator and the change of tendon eccentricity e.t.c., So, the analytical research considered the effect of these inherent characters was performed and the tendency of external unbonded tendons was estimated by numerical examples. By the analytical results, load-deflection relationship and stress increment of external unbonded tendons were similar to those of internal bonded tendon at initial elastic behavior state. Those characters were, however, smaller than those character of internal bonded tendons. For external unbonded tendons, if the 1 deviator which is positioned at maximum moment point and more 2 deviators which are position between maximum moment point and support are existed, the flexural behavior is similar to internal bonded tendons.

본 논문에서는 기존의 전단실험결과를 모아 구축한 방대한 데이터베이스를 이용하여 철근콘크리트 보와 프리스트레스트 콘크리트 보에 대한 ACI와 국내의 전단설계기준을 평가 분석하였다. 또한 두 전단설계기준에 대한 평가결과를 바탕으로 기준의 안전율과 강도감소계수에 대하여도 고찰하였다. 전단설계기준은 철근콘크리트 부재의 전단강도에 대해서 매우 낮은 정확도를 보였으며, 특히 전단철근이 없는 철근콘크리트 보의 전단강도에 대하여 가장 낮은 정확도를 제공하였다. 또한 기준에서 전단강도에 대한 전단철근의 기여도의 제한은 다소 낮은 것으로 분석되었으며, 특히 전단철근이 없고 휨인장철근비가 낮으며$(\rho_w<1.0\%)$ 춤이 높은 (h>700mm) 보에 대하여 매우 위험한 전단강도를 제공하였다. 프리스트레스트 콘크리트 부재에 대해서는 철근콘크리트 부재에 비하여 매우 정확한 전단강도를 제공하였다. 그러나, ACI와 국내의 전단설계기준은 전단강도의 예측정확도가 매우 다른 철근콘크리트 부재와 프리스트레스트 콘크리트 부재에 대해 동일한 강도감소계수를 사용함으로써 이들 부재에 대해 동일한 수준의 설계안 전율을 제공하지 못하였다.

Generally, a precast prestressed concrete (PSC) beam is used as girders for short-to-medium span (less than 30 m) bridges due to the advantages of simple design and construction, reduction of construction budget, maintenance convenience. In order to increase the span length beyond 50 m of precast PSC girder, PSC hollow box girder with unbonded prestressed H-type steel beam placed at the compressive region is proposed. The unbonded compressive prestressing in the H-type steel beams in the girder is made to recover plastic deflection of PSC girder when the pre-stressing is released. Also, the H-steel beams allow minimization of depth-to-length ratio of the girder by reducing the compressive region of the cross-section, thereby reducing the weight of the girder. A quasi-static 3-point bending test with 4 different loading steps is performed to verify safety and plastic deflection recovery of the girder. The experimental results showed that the maximum applied load exceeded the maximum design load and most of the plastic deflection was recovered when the compressive prestressing of H-type steel beams is released. Also using prestressed H-type steel as compression reinforcements in the upper part of cross section, repair and restoration difficulty and cost of PSC girders should be significantly reduced. The study result and analysis are discussed in detail in the paper.

기존의 Double T-Beam은 단면 형상이 갖는 단순함과 세련된 도시적 미관을 갖추고 있기 때문에 미국이나 유럽 등지에서 적극 시공되고 있으나 역학적 저항능력이 상대적으로 취약할 뿐만 아니라 제한된 특수 시공 방법을 사용해야 한다는 문제점이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기존의 Double T-Beam의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 콘크리트와 강재의 장점만을 취합한 강합성 보를 사용하였고, 긴장력을 도입하여 구조적으로 보다 안정성을 갖춘 프리스트레스트 강합성 Double T-Beam의 개발 가능성을 제시하고자 하였다.
