Carbon fiber sheet has been widely used for the strengthening of the concrete buildings structures due to its excellent physical properties such as high strength, lightness and high durability. Bond strength or behavior, on the other, hands, between carbon fiber sheet and concrete is very important in strengthening the concrete member using CFS. Also the bond failure mechanism between CFS and concrete should be fully verified and understood. This study is to investigate the bond strength of CFS to th concrete by the direct pull-out test and the tensile-shear test methods. From the tests, the average bond stress, $$\tau$_{y}$ and the effective bond length, $$\ell$_{ｕ}$ are acquired.

Damage process of CFRP laminates was characterized by Acoustic Emission (AE). The main objective of this study is to determine if the sources of AE in CERP laminates could be identified from the characteristics of the waveform signals recorded during monotonic tensile test. The time history and power spectrum of each individual wave signal recorded during test were examined and classified according to their special characteristics. The wave from and frequency of AE signal from a specimens is an aid to the determination of the extent of the different fracture mechanism such as matrix crack, debonding, fiber pull-out and fiber fracture as load is increased. Four distinct types of signals were observed regardless of specimen condition. The result showed that the AE method could be effectively used for analysis of fracture mechanism in CFRP laminates.

보강토공법이란 다양한 보강재를 흙속에 삽입하여 흙이 갖지 못하는 인장력을 보충함으로써 구조물을 안정화시키는 공법이다. 그리고 기존공법에 비해 경제적 구조물로 인식되고 있으며 또한 최근들어 전세계적으로 빈발하는 지진에도 그 저항력이 아주 큰 구조물임이 입증이 되어 현재 토목분야에서 각광을 받고 있는 공법이다. 보강토옹벽의 뒤채움재료로서 현재 우리나라에서 쉽게 구할 수 있는 화강풍화토가 많이 사용되고 있다. 그러나, 설계에 필요로 하는 이에 대한 데이터는 그리 많지 않다. 본 연구에서는 어디서나 쉽게 구할 수 있는 화강풍화토를 채취하여 대형 인발시험을 실시하였다. 인발시 흙과 보강재 사이의 상호거동을 파악하기 위하여 인발변위, 인발력, 삽입보강재의 각 지점에서의 절점변위 등을 측정하였다. 그리고 구속응력의 영향을 검토하기 위해서 이들 응력을 0.2, 0.5, 1.0kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$으로 변화시켜 실험을 행하였다. 그리고, 다짐률이 이들 상호거동에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 알아보기 위해서 다짐률을 65%, 80%m 95% 등으로 시료를 제작하여 서로 비교를 행하였다. 실험결과로부터 화강풍화토의 보강재와의 상호거동특성을 파악하여 제시하였다. 특히 다짐률은 상호거동특성에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 드러났으며, 화강토의 경우, 꽤 큰 점착특성이 존재하고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

This paper aims to study the local bond stress-slip behavior of reinforcing bars embedded in lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC). The experimental variables of the local bond stress-slip tests include concrete strength (20, 40 and 60 MPa), deformed steel bar size (#4, #6 and #8) and coarse aggregate (normal weight aggregate, reservoir sludge lightweight aggregate and waterworks sludge lightweight aggregate). The test results show that the ultimate bond strength increased with the increase of concrete compressive strength. Moreover, the larger the rib height to the diameter ratio ($h/d_b$) of the deformed steel bars is, the greater the ultimate bond stress is. In addition, the suggestion value of the CEB-FIP Model Code to the LWAC specimen's ultimate bond stress is more conservative than that of the normal weight concrete.

One of main issues of the FRP-concrete composite member is shear connection between FRP and concrete in order to secure composite behavior of FRP and concrete. To solve this problem, perfobond rib FRP shear connector is introduced for the mechanical shear connection. In this study, experimental study was carried out on the perfobond rib FRP shear connectors in order to develop the effective details of perfobond rib FRP shear connectors. Pull-out test specimens were manufactured with FRP plate with holes embedded in concrete block. Main parameters considered in this study were diameter of holes, ratio of spacing between the centres of holes to the diameter of holes, and thickness of FRP plates. Test results are discussed according to above parameters compared with other empirical expressions for steel perfobond rib connector.

The purpose of this study is to characterize the bonding properties between reinforced bar and re-emulsion polymer cement mortar through the pull off test. The properties of polymer cement mortar before and after hardening were measured. Spiral reinforced steel bar was used to control the brittleness fracture of test specimens. In addition polymer content as experimental factors, the types of reinforced bar and corrosion were considered as well. Non linear FEM analysis was carried out to expect the behavior of bonding interface under the certain load.

Many of researches regarding mechanical properties of composite materials are associated with humid environment and temperature. Especially the temperature is a very important factor influencing the design of thermoplastic composites. However, the effect of temperature on impact behavior of reinforced composites have not yet been fully explored. An approach which predicts critical fracture toughness GIC was performed by the impact test in this work The main goal of this work is to study effects of temperature in the impact test with glass fiber/polypropylene(GF/pp) composites. The critical fracture energy and failure mechanisms of GF/PP composites are investigated in the temperature range of $60^{\circ}C\;to\;-50^{\circ}C$ by impact test. The critical fracture energy shows a maximum at ambient temperature and it tends to decrease as temperature goes up or goes down. Major failure mechanisms can be classified such as fiber matrix debonding, fiber pull-out and/or delamination and matrix deformation.

However, the effect of temperature on impact behavior of reinforced composites have not yet been fully explored. An approach which predicts critical fracture toughness G$_{IC}$ was performed by the impact test in this work. The main goal of this work is to study the effect of temperature and span of specimen supports on the results of Charpy impact test for GF/PE composite. The critical fracture energy and failure mechanism of GF/PE composites were investigated in the temperature range of $60^{\circ}C;to;-50^{\circ}C$ by the Charpy impact test. The critical fracture energy showed the maximum at the ambient temperature, and it tended to decrease as the temperature increased or decreased from the ambient temperature. The major failure mechanisms are the fiber matrix debonding, the fiber pull-out and/or delamination and the matrix deformation.n.

The most controversial topics in plasma sprayed ceramic coating system are recently mechanical properties such as bond strength, cohesive strength, toughness and so on. Determination of bond strength of coatings is one of the most important problems. In the industry, the bond strength of coating system has been estimated by Pull-off test(ASTM standard C633-79). But, without a fixed jig and specimen, it is impossible to obtain the bond strength. Therefore, it is necessary to study the critical fracture load on interface of the coating by indentation test. Because the critical fracture load plays an important role in evaluating the bond strength for plasma sprayed ceramic coating system. So, we have estimated critical fracture load in plasma sprayed ceramic coating system, and it was shown that inverse relationship between the cross-section hardness of coating and the critical fracture load(Pc). In case of the high load(1kgf, 2kgf) in $Al_{2}O_{3}+13%TiO_{2}$, it was found that the critical point(Pco), which the coating was broken on.

This paper describes an experimental study on the mechanical characteristic and behavior of a structure that has a joint between the reinforced concrete (RC) member and steel plate concrete (SC) member. An out-of-plane flexural test on an L-type test specimen and in-plane shear test on an I-type test specimen were carried out by means of repeated cyclic loading until their failure. Based on the results, the former showed pull-out failure mode of anchored vertical bars while the latter exhibited flexural failure mode of the basement member. These results reveal that the maximum capacity of the specimens is 96% and 82%, respectively, compared with the theoretical value.
