A nonlinear finite element analysis (FEA) model is presented for simulating the behaviour of recycled aggregate concrete-filled steel tube (RACFST) beam-columns subjected to constant axial compressive load and cyclically increasing flexural loading. The FEA model was developed based on ABAQUS software package and a displacement-based approach was used. The proposed engineering stress versus engineering strain relationship of core concrete with the effect of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) replacement ratio was adopted in the FEA model. The predicted results of the FEA model were compared with the experimental results of several RACFST as well as the corresponding concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) beam-columns under cyclic loading reported in the literature. The comparison results indicated that the proposed FEA model was capable of predicting the load versus deformation relationship, lateral bearing capacity and failure pattern of RACFST beam-columns with an acceptable accuracy. A parametric study was further carried out to investigate the effect of typical parameters on the mechanism of RACFST beam-columns subjected to cyclic loading.

본 연구에서는 국내에서 생산되고 있는 콘크리트용 순환 굵은 골재를 사용하여 콘크리트의 압축강도 수준별(20, 35, 50MPa) 순환 굵은 골재의 혼입률 변화가 강도와 건조수축에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 실험결과 순환 굵은 골재의 치환율 변화에 따른 유동성(슬럼프)은 순환골재를 혼입하지 않은 경우에 비해 동등하거나 양호한 유동성을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 영향은 국내에서 생산되는 순환골재의 양호한 입형이 유동성 개선에 기여한 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 순환 굵은 골재의 치환율 변화에 따른 압축강도는 순환골재 혼입률이 증가할수록 약 9~10% 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며 순환 굵은 골재의 치환율에 따른 길이변화는 강도 수준에 관계없이 약 4~40%의 범위로 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 저강도 수준(20MPa)에서의 길이변화량은 약 18~40%로 35MPa 및 50MPa 수준의 길이변화량 약 4~17% 보다 큰 것으로 나타났다. 저강도 수준(20MPa)에서의 순환 굵은 골재 활용량을 증대시키기 위해서는 광물혼화제의 첨가 등 건조수축을 억제시킬 수 있는 방안 마련이 필요하다.

순환골재를 사용한 철근콘크리트 부재에서 휨강도에 비하여 전단성능 저하가 문제점으로 제기되고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위한 방법으로 강섬유를 콘크리트 보강재로 사용할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 순환골재를 사용한 SFRC 보의 전단실험을 통하여 강도 및 변형 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 주요 실험변수는 강섬유 혼입률(0, 0.5%, 1%), 순환골재 치환율(0%, 100%), 전단경간비(a/d = 1, 2) 등이다. 실험결과 실험에 의한 전단강도는 강섬유의 혼입률이 증가할수록 전단경간비가 작아질수록 증가하였다. 강섬유 1% 혼입한 순환골재의 경우 일반 골재에 비해 최대전단내력이 1.77~6.25% 증가한 반면에 강섬유 0~0.5% 혼입한 실험체에서는 일반골재에 비해 순환골재가 24.2%~49.2%의 전단강도가 저하되었다. 이를 볼 때 1% 강섬유 보강에 의하여 순환골재 사용에 따른 강도 저하를 방지하는데 크게 기여하는 것을 알 수 있다.

In order to study the axial compression performance of basalt-fiber reinforced recycled concrete (BFRRC) filled circular steel tubular short columns, the axial compression performance tests of seven short column specimens were conducted to observe the mechanical whole-process and failure mode of the specimens, the load-displacement curves and the load-strain curves of the specimens were obtained, the influence of design parameters on the axial compression performance of BFRRC filled circular steel tubular short columns was analyzed, and a practical mathematical model of stiffness degradation and a feasible stress-strain curve equation for the whole process were suggested. The results show that under the axial compression, the steel tube buckled and the core BFRRC was crushed. The load-axial deformation curves of all specimens show a longer deformation flow amplitude. Compared with the recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) replacement ratio and the basalt fiber dosage, the BFRRC strength has a great influence on the peak bearing capacity of the specimen. The RCA replacement ratio and the BFRRC strength are detrimental to ductility, whereas the basalt fiber dosage is beneficial to ductility.

3-dimentional precast recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) finite element models were developed by means of the platform OpenSees to implement sophisticated nonlinear model subjected to seismic loads. Efforts were devoted to the dynamic responses (including dynamic characteristics, acceleration amplifications, displacements, story drifts) and capacity curve. In addition, this study extended the prediction on dynamic response of precast RAC model by parametric study of material properties that represent the replacement percentage of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA). Principles and assumptions that represent characteristics of precast structure and influence of the interface between head of column and cast-in-place (CIP) joint on the stiffness of the joints was put forward and validated by test results. The comparison between simulated and tested results of the precast RAC frame shows a good correlation with most of the relative errors about 25% in general. Therefore, the adopted assumptions and the platform OpenSees are a viable approach to simulate the dynamic response of precast frames made of RAC.

The mechanical properties of Recycled Aggregate Concrete (RAC) with 100 percent Recycled Coarse Aggregate (RCA) under loading rates were investigated in depth. The theoretical model was validated utilizing the RAC elastic modulus obtained from cylindrical specimens subjected to various strain rates. Viscoelastic theories have traditionally been used to describe creep and relaxation of viscoelastic materials at low strain rates. In this study, viscoelastic theories were extended to the time domain of high strain rates. The theory proposed was known as reversed viscoelastic theory. Normalized Dirichlet-Prony theory was used as an illustration, and its parameters were determined. Comparing the predicted results to the experimental data revealed a high level of concordance. This methodology demonstrated its ability to characterize the strain rate effect for viscoelastic materials, as well as its applicability for determining not only the elastic modulus for viscoelastic materials, but also their shear and bulk moduli.

몇몇 연구자들에 의해 순환골재를 사용한 철근콘크리트 보의 전단거동에 대한 연구가 수행되었다. 이 실험에서는 건물 구조체에 순환골재 콘크리트의 적용 가능성과 전단 성능에 대하여 조사하였다. 일반적으로, 전단보강이 없는 철근콘크리트 보의 전단강도는 콘크리트의 압축강도, 인장철근비 및 전단경간비의 영향을 받는다. 이 연구에서는, 전단보강이 없는 28개의 순환골재 철근콘크리트 보를 2점 가력하여 실험하였다. 순환골재 치환율(0, 15, 30, 50%), 전단경간비(a/d=2, 3, 4) 및 인장철근비(${\rho}$=0.80, 1.27, 1.84%)를 변수로 하였고, 순환골재 치환율 50%를 기준으로 압축강도 30 MPa을 목표로 배합하였다. 이 연구가 순환 골재 철근콘크리트 보의 전단설계식 제정에 기초적 자료로써 중요한 역할을 할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

This study aimed to inspect the axial compression mechanical performance of basalt-fiber-reinforced recycled - concrete (BFRRC)-filled square steel tubular stub column. The replacement ratio of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) and the basalt fiber (BF) dosage were used as variation parameters, and the axial compression performance tests of 15 BFRRC-filled square steel tubular stub column specimens were conducted. The failure mode and the load-displacement/strain curve of the specimen were measured. The working process of the BFRRC-filled square steel tubular stub column was divided into three stages, namely, elastic-elastoplasticity, sudden drawdown, and plasticity. The influence of the design parameters on the peak bearing capacity, energy dissipation performance, and other axial compression performance indexes was discussed. A mathematical model of segmental stiffness degradation was proposed on the basis of the degradation law of combined secant-stiffness under axial compression. The full-process curve equation of axial compressive stress-strain was proposed by introducing the influencing factors, including the RCA replacement ratio and the BF dosage, and the calculated curve agreed well with the test-measured curve.

This paper investigates the flexural behavior of reinforced recycled aggregates concrete (RRAC) beams after exposed to high temperatures. The experimental results from 17 specimens were present and compared with temperatures, recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) replacement percentages, and concrete strength as variables. It was found that the high temperature would not cause an observable change in the failure pattern. However, high temperature can significantly reduce the stiffness and ductility, and accelerate the damage degradation of specimens. After exposure to 600℃, the ultimate bearing capacity of the specimens decreased by 20%-30% The mechanical properties of RRAC beams after high temperatures were barely impacted by the replacement percentages. Increasing the concrete strength of RCA could effectively improve the bearing capacity and peak deflection of RRAC beams after exposed to high temperatures. Furthermore, the calculation method of the bending bearing capacity and deflection of RRAC beams was also discussed.

KS기준 및 콘크리트표준시방서에는 순환골재를 사용한 콘크리트의 압축강도를 27 MPa 이하로 제한하고 있으며, 이에 따라 27 MPa를 초과하는 순환골재 콘크리트에 대한 역학적 특성에 대한 연구결과는 부족한 상황이다. 따라서, 이 연구에서는 순환굵은골재 사용의 확대를 위해 압축강도 30~60 MPa 범주의 굵은순환골재를 사용한 콘크리트의 압축강도를 포함한 역학적 특성을 연구하였다. 실험변수로써 물-시멘트 비와 굵은순환골재의 치환율을 고려하였다. 고려된 물-시멘트 비는 0.36, 0.46 및 0.53 이고, 순환굵은골재의 치환율은 30, 50, 70 및 100%이다. 실험변수에 따른 순환골재 콘크리트의 7일 및 28일 압축강도, 탄성계수, 인장강도 및 파괴계수 특성을 분석하였다. 물-시멘트 비가 0.36일 때의 탄성계수에 비해 0.53일 때의 탄성계수는 10% 이상 감소하였다. 탄성계수 실험결과와 기존설계코드에 의한 탄성계수 예측결과를 비교하였으며, 설계코드에 의한 탄성계수 예측결과는 실험결과를 과다평가하고 있다. 반면에 설계코드에 의한 파괴계수 예측결과는 압축강도 40 MPa 이상의 콘크리트의 파괴계수 실험결과를 과소평가하고 있다.
