승용차 전용 조립식 고가도로 상부구조에 복합재료 바닥판을 적용하기 위하여 두 개의 사각형으로 이루어진 단위 모듈 단면이 개발되었으며, 설계된 단위 모듈 단면에 대해 두 가지의 적층형태로 각각 설계를 하여 성능을 비교하였다. 단위 모듈 및 2 연속 모듈 그리고 단위 모듈 5개를 접착제를 이용하여 부착한 바닥판 시스템에 대해 휨 거동 특성을 분석하고 설계하중 및 극한하중에 대한 바닥판의 사용성 및 구조안전성을 분석하기 위한 실험을 DBT와 LT로 설계된 실험체에 대해 각각 실시하였다. 또한 ABAQUS를 이용한 수치해석 결과와 실험 결과를 비교 분석하였으며, 실험 장치 및 방법과 파괴하중 및 파괴형상 등의 실험결과를 상세히 나타내었다. 구조실험결과 개발된 복합재료 바닥판은 승용차 전용 고가도로 바닥판으로 사용하기에 충분한 적용성과 효용성이 있음이 입증되었다.

The paper presents the study on a change in modal parameters and structural stiffness of cable-stayed Fiberline Bridge made entirely of Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) composite used for 20 years in the fjord area of Kolding, Denmark. Due to this specific location the bridge structure was subjected to natural aging in harsh environmental conditions. The flexural properties of the pultruded GFRP profiles acquired from the analyzed footbridge in 1997 and 2012 were determined through three-point bending tests. It was found that the Young's modulus increased by approximately 9%. Moreover, the influence of the temperature on the storage and loss modulus of GFRP material acquired from the Fiberline Bridge was studied by the dynamic mechanical analysis. The good thermal stability in potential real temperatures was found. The natural vibration frequencies and mode shapes of the bridge for its original state were evaluated through the application of the Finite Element (FE) method. The initial FE model was created using the real geometrical and material data obtained from both the design data and flexural test results performed in 1997 for the intact composite GFRP material. Full scale experimental investigations of the free-decay response under human jumping for the experimental state were carried out applying accelerometers. Seven natural frequencies, corresponding mode shapes and damping ratios were identified. The numerical and experimental results were compared. Based on the difference in the fundamental natural frequency it was again confirmed that the structural stiffness of the bridge increased by about 9% after 20 years of service life. Data collected from this study were used to validate the assumed FE model. It can be concluded that the updated FE model accurately reproduces the dynamic behavior of the bridge and can be used as a proper baseline model for the long-term monitoring to evaluate the overall structural response under service loads. The obtained results provided a relevant data for the structural health monitoring of all-GFRP bridge.

In recent years, FRP plates have been studied for flexural reinforcement of RC structures due to easy installation and good quality control. This study presents experimental results for the effectiveness of flexural reinforcement of the RC beams using thin CFRP and GFRP stripe made by the pultrusion process. For the selected FRP strips of various thicknesses and widths, it was demonstrated that both flexural strength and ductility were considerably increased with relatively easy installation when compared to the other methods used for the composite reinforcement.

This paper presents an analysis of the results of an experimental program on the performance of a novel configuration of a hybrid FRP-concrete beam. The beam section consists of a GFRP pultruded profile, a CFRP laminate, and a concrete block all wrapped up using filament winding. It was found that the thickness of the concrete block and the confinement by the filament-wound wrapping had a profound effect on the energy dissipation behaviour of the beam. Using a shear punching model, and comparing the predicted results with the experimental ones, it was found that beyond a given value of the concrete block thickness, the deformational behaviour of the beam shifts from brittle to ductile. It was also found that the filament-wound wrap had many benefits such as providing a composite action between the concrete block and the GFRP box, improving the stiffness of the beam, and most importantly, enhancing the load carrying ability through induced confinement of the concrete.

In order to determine a minimum thickness of the pultruded GFRP panel as a structural member, some experimental studies were performed. GFRP tubes with 2mm, 4mm, 6mm thickness were manufactured by pultrusion process. First, coupon tests for finding mechanical properties were carried out. Comparisons between test results and analysis results based on classical laminate theory showed large differences in case of 2mm, 4mm specimens. The reason is that it is difficult to apply appropriate pultruding force and keep layered stitched fabric flat for the pultrusion process of complex shaped FRP member with small thickness. On the consequence, we decide 6mm as a minimum thickness of FRP member. Second, 4-point bending tests were performed and the results with compared with numerical analysis. The behavior of FRP tube can be exactly predicted by numerical analysis if buckling analysis is included.

섬유복합체(FRP)는 비부식성 재료라는 특징으로 인해 이상적인 철근 대체재로 주목 받고 있다. 그러나 현재 FRP 보강근은 철근과 달리 일반적으로 수용되는 고정된 형태가 존재하지 않고 다양한 재료와 성분비, 형태 등으로 제작되기 때문에 이에 대한 성능평가 데이터에 근거한 FRP 보강 콘크리트 부재의 거동특성 구명은 상당부분 제한될 수 있다. 더군다나 FRP 보강 콘크리트 부재의 휨거동에 대한 평가는 주로 단기 거동 측면에 집중되어 이루어져 왔다. 이 연구는 GFRP 보강근 및 이를 사용하여 보강된 콘크리트 부재의 장기거동을 평가하기 위한 것으로, 먼저 철근 대체용으로 개발된 GFRP 보강근에 대한 성능평가 결과를 제시하였고, 이의 크리프 거동 특성에 대한 3년간의 계측 결과를 제시하였다. 실험 결과 인장강도의 약 55% 이하의 하중이 지속적으로 재하되는 경우에는 100년 이상의 내구연한을 확보할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 GFRP 보강 콘크리트 보의 장기거동을 약 1년간 관찰하였으며 이로부터 FRP 보강 부재의 장기처짐 계산식에 사용되는 수정계수 값 0.73을 도출하였다. 따라서 이 연구로부터 도출된 GFRP 보강근 및 이로 보강된 콘크리트 보의 단기 및 장기 거동 특성값은 FRP 보강 콘크리트 부재의 설계에 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

In global competition manufacturing companies have to produce modern, new constructions from advanced materials in order to increase competitiveness. The aim of my research was to develop a new composite cellular plate structure, which can be primarily used for structural elements of road, rail, water and air transport vehicles (e.g. vehicle bodies, ship floors). The new structure is novel and innovative, because all materials of the components of the newly developed structure are composites (laminated Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) deck plates with pultruded Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic (GFRP) stiffeners), furthermore combines the characteristics of sandwich and cellular plate structures. The material of the structure is much more advantageous than traditional steel materials, due mainly to its low density, resulting in weight savings, causing lower fuel consumption and less environmental damage. In the study the optimal construction of a given geometry of a structural element of a road truck trailer body was defined by single- and multi-objective optimization (minimal cost and weight). During the single-objective optimization the Flexible Tolerance Optimization method, while during the multi-objective optimization the Particle Swarm Optimization method were used. Seven design constraints were considered: maximum deflection of the structure, buckling of the composite plates, buckling of the stiffeners, stress in the composite plates, stress in the stiffeners, eigenfrequency of the structure, size constraint for design variables. It was confirmed that the developed structure can be used principally as structural elements of transport vehicles and unit load devices (containers) and can be applied also in building construction.
