  • This paper considers the genetic algorithms(GAs) for the mixed model assembly line sequencing(MMALS) in which the objective is to minimize the overall line length. To apply the GAs to the MMALS, the representation, selection, genetic sequencing operators, and genetic parameters are studied. Especially, the existing sequencing binary operators such as partially map crossover(PMX), cycle crossover(CX), and order crossover (OX) are modified to be suitable for the MMALS, and a new sequencing binary operator called immediate successor relationship crossover (ISR) is introduced. These binary operators mentioned above and/or unary operators such as swap, insertion, inversion, displacement, and splice are compared to find operators which work well in the MMALS. Experimental results indicate that 1) among the binary operators ISR operator is the best, followed by the modified OX, and the modified PMX, with the modified CX being the worst, 2) among the unary operators inversion operator is the best, followed by displacement, swap, and insertion, with splice being the worst, and 3) in general, the unary operators perform better than the binary operators for the MMALS.

  • This study is performed to investigate the behavior of multi-column piers and to evaluate the seismic performance. In this study, 3 types of scale model piers with 2-column are designed and tested by quasi-static load in both longitudinal and transverse directions. Each type of model consisting of 2 specimens has different reinforcement details in the lap splice of longitudinal bars and amount of transverse reinforcements. This paper reports that relatively large amount of ductility can be achieved by providing sufficient lap-splice length and transverse reinforcements with end hook even if longitudinal bars are lap spliced in the base of pier. But because multi-column piers have small longitudinal stiffness, careful consideration is needed in case of multi-span continuous bridges.

  • A compression lap splice becomes an important issue due to development of ultra-high strength concrete. Based on the basic form of design equations for development lengths of deformed bars and hooks in tension, simplifed design equation of deformed bars in compression was proposed using regression analyses.

  • In this study, an experimental work is conducted to evaluate the bond performance between reinforcing bars and surrounding concrete in a lapped splice. The major variable of this test is a transverse reinforcement in lap-spliced tension reinforcing bars. The test results indicate that the bond strength per unit splice length increases with an increase in the transverse reinforcement factor $K_{\alpha}$. The specimens taken less than (c+$K_{tr}$)/$d_b$=3.0 tend to be very brittle at failure. But the specimens taken longer than (c+$K_{tr}$)/$d_b$=3.0 tend to be somewhat ductile at failure.

  • In this study, new moment-resisting precast concrete beam-column joint is proposed for moderate seismic regions. It has the connection reinforcing bars, penetrated the joint and lap-spliced with the bottom bars of precast U-beam. To evaluate the performance for noncontact lapped splice, analytical works were conducted. Major variables for FEM analysis are the length of lap, the diameter of connection reinforcing bars, and the distance between lapped bars. The results of this study show thar the these variables has much influence on strength and deformation of lapped joint.

  • The code provisions on lap splices are critically assessed in the light of 203 beams without transverse reinforcement and 278 beams with transverse reinforcement. For comparison, the provisions given in the ACI 318, Eurocode 2, and TS 500 Codes are considered. The ACI Committee 408 recommended provision and a new proposal are also taken into account throughout the assessment. The comparison with real beam tests where the splice region was subjected to constant moment indicates that current provisions in the Codes do not agree acceptably with test results. The steel stress prediction graphs calculated by means of the Code provisions show high scatter and remain unsafe especially for test data without transverse reinforcement. Both the recent recommended provision by ACI Committee 408 and a new design expression proposed by the author have much less scatter with fewer unsafe predictions. The simplified design provision proposed by ACI Committee 408 does not yield similar results to that of the advanced design provision proposed by the same committee and therefore it could conveniently be replaced with the simpler equation proposed by the author.

  • The use of spliced reinforcing bars in sustainable concrete members to manage inadequate bars length is a common practical issue which is may be due to some limitations. The lap splicing means two bars overlapped in parallel with specified length called the splice length in order to provide the required bond between the two bars. The bond between sustainable concrete and spliced steel bars is another important issue. The normal strength sustainable concrete specimens of sizes 1700×150×150 mm with tension reinforcement lap spliced were selected according to testing device length limitations. These members were designed to fail in flexure in order to investigate the lap spliced tension bars effect. The selected lap spliced tension bars were of 10 mm size with smooth and deformed surfaces in order to investigate the surface nature accompanied with the splice nature. The sustainable concrete mechanical properties and mix workability were also studied. This study reveals that the effect of number of spliced bars on the response of beams reinforced with smooth bars is found to be more obvious than deformed one. Finite element modeling in three dimensions was carried out for the tested beams using ABAQUS software. A parametric study is carried out using finite elements on considering the following parameters, concrete compressive strength, load type and opening in cross section (hollow section) for weight reduction purposes.The laboratory and numerical results show good agreements in terms of ultimate load and deflection with an average difference of 10% and 15% in ultimate load and deflection respectively.

  • In precast deck system, structural performance and serviceability are mostly determined by the connection methods between the precast decks. This study proposes precast deck system with asymmetric ribbed connection details using High Strength Fiber Reinforced Concrete(HSFRC) with filler. To verify the proposed method, the flexural performance experiment was carried out with variation of joint cross section type and splice rebar details. From the test results, regardless of joint details, spliced tensile rebars of specimens were deformed to yielding strain level. Also, all types of specimens resulted in sufficient flexural performance. These test results show that the minimum lap splice length specified in current Korea Highway Bridge Design Code is conservative for precast deck joint using HSFRC. Therefore, splice details can be simplified and joint width can be reduced by using HSFRC with filler between the precast decks, and the proposed precast deck systems can be applied to the connection part of precast decks effectively.

  • In order to make a more reasonable evaluation on the stiffness of the high-strength mortar-filled sleeve bar splices under cyclic loading, we investigated and analyzed the existing experiment data of 106 full-sized reinforcing bar splices with test variables such as compressive strength of mortar, development length of reinforcement and sleeve type, etc. The following were found: 1) If mortar and the reinforcement development length with $f_{g^*}$(L/d) of more than 340 is used, the cast iron sleeve bar splices for SD350 and SD400 will have the stiffness of higher than A class of the AIJ code. 2) If mortar and the reinforcement development length with $f_{g^*}$(L/d) of more than 400 is used, the cast iron sleeve splices and pipe sleeve splices for SD500 will have the stiffness of higher than A class of the AIJ code.

  • The objective of this study is to assess seismic damage potential and evaluate structural performance of columns in concrete moment frames. For this purpose the results of 3 former studies are compared. Experimental variables considered in these studies are lap-splice of longitudinal reinforcement, axial load level, longitudinal reinforcement ratio, etc. The columns in 1st story of the building are considered in these studies since the columns in 1st story shall resist largest axial force during an earthquake. Based on test results strength, ductility capacities as well as plastic hinge length are compared and discussed.
