본 연구의 대상구조물은 지하철 본선 직상부에 시공된 초고층 빌딩 하중을 지지하기 위해 설치한 전이구조체인 강합성 콘크리트 박스구조물(트랜스퍼 거더)로서 연구의 목적은 대상구조물에 발생된 균열의 원인을 분석하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 강합성 콘크리트 구조물에 발생된 균열조사결과와 수치해석결과를 비교, 분석하여 강합성 콘크리트 구조물에 발생된 균열의 원인이 건조수축균열임을 해석적으로 입증하였다. 연구결과, 콘크리트 내부에 매립된 철골의 형상 및 수직보강재의 위치와 폐합 단면의 면적에 따라 외기온도에 따른 콘크리트와 강재간의 내부 온도차가 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 수직보강재의 간격이 좁은 경우 넓은 단면에 비해 상대적으로 내부 온도의 집중도가 상승하여 외기와의 온도차가 크게 발생되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 온도 및 온도에 따른 변형율이 크게 발생되는 위치와 현장균열조사 결과와 일치하는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 구조물 중앙부의 점검통로와 철골에 형성된 수직보강재 유무 및 간격에 따라 내부 온도 집중부가 형성되고 해당위치에서 강재에 의한 콘크리트의 온도신축거동이 구속되어 건조수축균열이 발생될 수 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 향후 강합성 콘크리트 구조물에 대한 유지관리 및 점검 시 건조수축에 의한 비구조적인 균열과 구조적인 균열을 구분하여 관리하는 것이 중요할 것으로 판단된다.

The energy-absorbing characteristic of impact limiters affects the cask design so significantly that it should be evaluated as accurate as possible. The objective of this study is to find the influence of the impact limiter's steel case and gusset plates which enclose the shock absorbing cellular material on the impact energy absorption. The influence of impact limiter's steel case and gusset plate stiffeners on the impact energy absorption behavior under horizontal drop impact was evaluated for a radioactive isotope transport cask. Though the impact limiters mitigate the impact damage of the cask, the impact limiter's steel case and gusset plate stiffeners increase the impact force so significantly that should be designed as soft as possible. The impact analysis without considering impact limiter's steel case and gusset plates stiffener gives non-conservative results, so the stiffness of the steel case and gusset plates should be considered in impact analysis.

The domestic and foreign scholars conducted many studies on mechanical properties of wave web steel beam and high-strength spiral stirrups confined concrete columns. Based on the previous research work, studies were conducted on the anti-seismic property of the end plate bolt connected wave web steel beam and high-strength spiral stirrups confined concrete column nodes applied with pre-tightening force. Four full-size node test models in two groups were designed for low-cycle repeated loading quasi-static test. Through observation of the stress, distortion, failure process and failure mode of node models, analysis was made on its load-carrying capacity, deformation performance and energy dissipation capacity, and the reliability of the new node was verified. The results showed that: under action of the beam-end stiffener, the plastic hinges on the end of wave web steel beam are displaced outward and played its role of energy dissipation capacity. The study results provided reliable theoretical basis for the engineering application of the new types of nodes.

Stiffeners have widely been used in lateral load resisting systems to improve the buckling stability of shear panels in steel frames. However, due to major differences between plate girders and steel plate shear walls (SPSWs), use of plate girder equations often leads to uneconomical and, in some cases, incorrect design of stiffeners. Hence, this paper uses finite element analysis (FEA) to describe the effect of the rigidity and arrangement of stiffeners on the buckling behavior of plates. The procedures consider transverse and/or longitudinal stiffeners in various practical configurations. Subsequently, curves and formulas for the design of stiffeners are presented. In addition, the influence of stiffeners on the inward forces subjected to the boundary elements and the tension field angle is investigated as well. The results indicate that the effective application of stiffeners in SPSW systems not only improves the structural behavior, such as stiffness, overall strength and energy absorption, but also leads to a reduction of the forces that are exerted on the boundary elements.

As a type of semi-rigid connection, the top and seat angle connections are popular in current structures owing to their good cyclic performance and simple erection. However, their stiffness and load bearing capacity are relatively insufficient. This study proposes two strengthening methods to further increase the stiffness and strength of bolted-angle joints while maintaining satisfactory energy dissipation capacity (EDC) and ductility. Cyclic loading tests were conducted on six joint specimens with different strengthened angle components. Based on the test results, the influence of the following important factors on the cyclic behavior of steel joint specimens was investigated: the position of the rib stiffeners (edge rib stiffeners and middle rib stiffener), steel strength grade of rib stiffeners (Q345 and Q690), and additional stiffeners or not. In addition, the finite element models of these specimens were built and validated through a comparison of experimental and numerical results. The stiffness and bearing capacity of the bolted-angle joints could be improved significantly by utilizing the novel strengthened joints proposed in this study. Moreover, this can be achieved with almost no increase in the amount of steel required, and the EDC of this joint could also satisfy the requirements of seismic codes from various countries.

강교량은 유지관리가 충분히 이루어지지 않거나, 해안 과 같이 가설위치의 환경이 고온 다습한 경우 단면에 국부적인 부식손상이 발생할 수 있다. 특히 강거더 교량 의 지점부에서는 교대부와 강거더 단부의 공간이 협소하여 상대적으로 습도가 높고 신축이음부로부터의 강우 및 동결 방지제가 누수되어 침전물을 습윤상태로 유지하게 되므로, 복부판과 지점부 보강재에 집중적으로 부식이 발생되고 있으므로 이로인한 구조성능 변화를 확인하여야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 실제 발생할 수 있는 강거더 단부 복부판과 보강재의 국부부식손상을 모사한 강재 실험체를 제작하고 이에 대한 단부 지압강도 변화를 실험적으로 평가하였다. 실험결과, 국부적 부식손상은 강거더 단부의 지압강도에 영향을 주며, 특히 수직 보강재에 의한 영향이 크게 나타남을 확인하였다.

종방향 보강재는 압축플랜지를 단순지지함으로써 국부좌굴강도를 증가시키는 역할을 수행한다. 최근 연구에 의하면, 종방향으로 적절한 간격을 두고 점지지 되었을 경우 그 선을 따라서 단순 지지된 경우와 동일한 좌굴강도를 보이는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이 같은 연구결과로부터, 하부콘크리트에 부착된 전단연결재가 압축플랜지의 좌굴시 점지지 조건을 만족할 수 있다면 전단연결재가 단순지지의 역할도 수행할 수 있을 것이라는 예측이 가능하다. 이와 같은 사실이 입증이 된다면, 강박스거더 제작비에서 매우 큰 부분을 차지하는 종방향보강재를 생략할 수 있기 때문에 보다 경제적인 설계가 가능해 질 것이다. 본 연구에서는 하부압축플랜지에 종방향보강재를 대체할 전단연결재의 종방향 배치 시 최소간격 결정과 동시에 하부 콘크리트와 합성거동을 하기 위해 소요되는 전단연결재 소요 개수와 간격을 결정하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다.

Due to excellent advantages such as better illuminative effects, considerable material savings and ease and rapidness of construction, the bolted ball-cylinder joint which is a new type joint system has been proposed in space truss structures. In order to reveal more information and understanding on the behaviour of bolted ball-cylinder joints, full-scale experiments on eight bolted ball-cylinder joint specimens were conducted. Five joint specimens were subjected to axial compressive force, while another three joint specimens were subjected to axial tensile force. The parameters investigated herein were the outside diameter of hollow cylinders, the height of hollow cylinders, the thickness of hollow cylinders, ribbed stiffener and axial force. These joint specimens were collapsed by excessive deformation of hollow cylinders, punching damage of hollow cylinders, evulsion of bolts, and weld cracking. The strain distributions on the hollow cylinder opening were mainly controlled by bending moments. To improve the ultimate bearing capacity and axial stiffness of bolted ball-cylinder joints, two effective measures were developed: (1) the thickness of the hollow cylinder needed to be thicker; (2) the ribbed stiffener should be adopted. In addition, the axial stiffness of bolted ball-cylinder joints exhibited significant non-linear characteristics.

The goal of this paper is to investigate structural integrity factors of RMI(reflective metal insulation) to confirm the design requirements in nuclear power plant. Currently, a glass wool insulation is using now, but it will gradually be replaced with the reflective metal insulation maded by stainless steel plates. The main function of an insulation is to minimize a heat loss of vessel and pipes in RCS(reactor coolant system). It has to maintain structural a integrity in nuclear power plant life duration. In this study, the structural integrity analysis was carried out both multi-plate and outer shell plate by using a static analysis and experimental test. First, inner multi-plate has a self support structure for being air space. Because the effect of total static weight in multi-layer plate is low, a plate collapse possibility is not high. Considering optimum thin plate pressing process, it has to pre-check the basic physical properties. Second, the outer segment thickness and stiffener shape are verified by the numerical static analysis, and sample test for both type of panel and cylindrical pipe model.

The study is to investigate the influence on the fatigue crack growth behaviors for the welded configuration in pressure vessel stiffener. In order to perform this goal, the automatic welded specimens were prepared. The material is ASTM A516 grade 60 steel used in pressure vessel mainly. In skip welding of pad-on-plate, continuous fillet welding and PWHT specimen, fatigue crack is generally initiated at the starting and end old toe zone, and ruptured at the starting old toe zone. The fatigue life of pad-on-plate of the continuous fillet welding specimen is larger than that of pad-on-plate skip fillet welding specimen about 85% under low load, about 20% under high load and less than that of two-pad continuous fillet welding specimen about 85%. In da/dN-$\Delta$K curve under low load, skip fillet welding specimen of pad-on-plate showed retardation on the initial crack, and the fatigue crack growth rate at the low region of $\Delta$K greater specimen E($3.8 {\times} 10^{-6}mm/cycle$). And the fatigue life of welding specimen was smaller than that of PWHT specimen.
