In seismic design, hollow section concrete columns offer advantages by reducing the weight and seismic mass compared to concrete section RC bridge columns. However, the flexure-shear behavior and spirals strain of hollow section concrete columns are not well-understood. Octagonal RC bridge columns of a small-scale model were tested under cyclic lateral load with constant axial load. The volumetric ratio of the transverse spiral hoop of all specimens is 0.00206. The test results showed that the structural performance of the hollow specimen, such as the initial crack pattern, initial stiffness, and diagonal crack pattern, was comparable to that of the solid specimen. However, the lateral strength and ultimate displacement of the hollow specimen noticeably decreased after the drift ratio of 3%. The columns showed flexure-shear failure at the final stage. Analytical and experimental investigations are presented in this study to understand a correlation confinement steel ratio with neutral axis and a correlation between the strain of spirals and the shear resistance capacity of steel in hollow and solid section concrete columns. Furthermore, shear strength components (V_c, V_s·, V_p) and concrete stress were investigated.

철근콘크리트 구조물의 전단거동은 수년간의 많은 연구에도 불구하고, 이론적으로 명확하게 규명하기에 어려운 문제중에 하나이다. 중공 슬래브의 휨강도와 전단강도는 중공부로 인하여 감소되기 때문에, 이에 따른 구조물의 성능을 예측하는 것은 중요한 문제라 할 수 있다. 현재 각국의 중공슬래브 전단설계기준은 실험에 의한 기준식을 제시하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 철근비에 따른 일방향 중공슬래브 전단강도 산정방법에 관한 연구를 수행하기 위해 실험결과를 분석하고, 전단강도 산정식들을 비교, 분석하였다.

섬유복합체 (Fiber Reinforced Polymer, FRP)는 비강도가 높고, 비부식성 재료라는 특징을 가지고 있어서 건설 분야에서 철근을 대체할 수 있는 보강근 재료로 인식되고 있다. 몇몇 유리섬유 복합체 (Glass FRP, GFRP) 보강근이 상용화되어 있지만 GFRP는 철근에 비해 가격이 비싸고 상대적으로 낮은 탄성계수와 취성 파괴 특성 때문에 다소 경쟁력이 떨어진다. GFRP 보강근의 재료가격을 낮출 수 없다면 사용된 재료의 성능을 최대로 하여 보강근의 성능을 높이는 것이 상대적인 가격을 낮추는 방법이 될 수 있다. 일반적으로 FRP 보강근의 직경이 커질수록 인장강도는 감소하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이의 원인 중 하나는 보강근이 인장을 받을 때 외력이 중앙에 위치한 섬유에 충분히 전달되지 못하여 외측에 위한 섬유들만이 인장에 저항하기 때문이다. 따라서 본연의 역할을 수행하지 못하는 섬유는 제거함으로써 보강근의 단가를 낮추면서 보강근이 소정의 성능을 발휘하도록 한다면 가격대비 성능이 최적화된 FRP 보강근을 제작할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 직경 19 mm의 GFRP 보강근에 대해 단면 내에 중공이 존재하는 경우 중공비율에 따른 인장특성의 변화를 실험적으로 관찰하였다. 중공이 없는 GFRP 보강근 세 개, 네 가지 중공비율에 대해 각각 여섯 개의 GFRP 보강근 시편을 준비하여 인장실험을 실시하였으며 결과 분석을 통하여 인장특성 변화를 도출하였으며 이를 바탕으로 최적의 중공비율을 제안하였다.

This study involves a series of experiments on the buckling strength of eccentrically compressed cold-formed stainless steel square hollow-section columns. The principal parameters in this study are slenderness ratios ($L_k/r$ = 30, 50, 70) and magnitude of eccentricity e (0, 25, 50, 75, 100 mm) on the symmetrical end-moment. The objectives of this paper are to obtain the buckling loads by conducting a series of experiments and to compare the behavior of the eccentrically compressed cold-formed stainless steel square hollow-section columns with the results of the analysis. The ultimate buckling strength of the square-section members were determined with the use of a numerical method in accordance with the bending moment-axial force (M-P) interaction curves. The behavior of each specimen was displayed in the form of a moment-radian (M-${\theta}$) relationship. The numerically obtained ultimate-buckling interaction curves of the beam columns coincided with the results of the experiments.

The risk of progressive collapse in steel framed buildings under fire conditions is gradually rising due to the increasing use of combustible materials. The fire resistance of such steel framed buildings is evaluated by fire tests. Recently, the application of performance based fire engineering makes it easier to evaluate the fire resistance owing to various engineering techniques and fire science. The fire resistance of steel structural members can be evaluated by the comparison of the limiting temperatures and maximum temperatures of structural steel members. The limiting temperature is derived at the moment that the failure of structural member results from the rise in temperature and the maximum temperature is calculated by using a heat transfer analysis. To obtain the limiting temperatures for structural steel of grades SS400 and SM490 in Korea, tensile strength tests of coupons at high temperature were conducted. The limiting temperatures obtained by the tensile coupon tests were compared with the limiting temperatures reported in the literature and the results of column fire tests under four types of loading with different load ratios. Simple limiting temperature formulas for SS400 and SM490 steel based on the fire tests of the tensile coupons are proposed. The limiting temperature predictions using the proposed formulas were proven to be conservative in comparison with those obtained from H-section and hollow section column fire tests.

This paper presents the experimental and numerical study on the distribution of transverse and longitudinal residual stresses in cold-formed thick-walled structural steel rectangular hollow sections manufactured by indirect technique. Hole-drilling method is employed to measure the magnitude of the transverse and longitudinal surface residual stress distribution, and the effects of the residual stresses are evaluated qualitatively by sectioning method. It is shown that compared to normal cold-formed thin-walled structural hollow sections (SHS), the cold-formed thick-walled SHS has similar level of residual stress in the flat area but higher residual stresses in the corner and welding areas. Both the transverse and longitudinal residual stresses tend to open the section. In order to predict the surface residual stresses in the corners of the cold-formed thick-walled SHS, an analytical model is developed. 2D finite element simulation of the cold bending process is conducted to validate the analytical approach. It is shown that in analyzing bending for thick-walled sections, shifting of neutral axis must be considered, since it would lead to nonlinear and non-symmetrical distribution of stresses through the thickness. This phenomenon leads to the fact that cold-formed thick-walled SHSs has different distribution and magnitude of the residual stresses from the cold-formed thin-walled SHSs.

Connections to circular hollow steel sections (CHS) are considered one of the most complex and time consuming connections in steel construction. Such connections are usually composed of gusset plates welded to the outside of the steel tube or penetrating the steel tube. Design guides, accounting for the effect of connection configuration on the strength of the connection, are not present. This study aims to investigate, through experimental testing and a parametric study, the influence of connection configuration on the strength of one sided branch plate-to-CHS members. A notable effect was observed on the behavior of the connections due to its detailing changes with respect to capacity, failure mode, ductility, and stress distribution. A parametric study is performed using the calibrated analytical model to include a wider range of parameters. The study involves 26 numerical analyses of finite element models including parameters of the diameter-to-thickness (D/t) ratio, length of gusset plate, and connection configuration. Accordingly, a modification to the formulas provided by the current design recommendations was suggested to include connection configuration effects for the one sided branch plate-to-CHS members.

연구목적: 최근 기반시설물이 대형화 됨에 따라 콘크리트 구조물의 경우는 중량감소를 위하여 중공 슬래브가 대안의 하나로 제시되고 있다. 연구방법: 중공부재의 시공 시 부력으로 인하여 시공이 어려운 점과 콘크리트 단면적이 줄어 전단성능이 부족하게 되는 구조적인 단점이 있으므로, PVC관과 같은 중공체를 이용하여 일방향 슬래브를 제작하고 시공성과 구조성능을 검토하는 실험을 실시하였다. 연구결과: PVC관을 이용한 일방향 중공슬래브의 경우 부력방지장치를 이용하면 타설 시 발생하는 중공체의 부상 및 침강을 예방하여 시공성능이 크게 개선되었으며, 휨 및 전단성능도 적합한 성능을 가진 것으로 확인되었다. 결론: 중공율과 휨성능은 큰 관계가 없지만 중공율이 큰 경우는 항복 후 2차 강성이 낮으므로 이에 대한 고려가 필요하며, 중공율의 증가에 따른 전단성능의 감소는 전단철근을 배근하면 보완될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite panel, with the benefits of light weight, high strength, good corrosion resistance, and long-term durability, has been considered as one of the prosperous alternatives for structural retrofits and replacements. Although with these advantages, a further application of FRPs in bridge engineering may be restricted, and that is partly due to some unsatisfied thermal performance observed in recent studies. In this regard, Kansas Department of Transportation (DOT) conducted a field monitoring program on a bridge with glass FRP (GFRP) honeycomb hollow section sandwich panels. The temperatures of the panel surfaces and ambient air were measured from December 2002 to July 2004. In this paper, the temperature distributing behaviors of the panels are firstly demonstrated and discussed based on the field measurements. Then, a numerical modeling procedure of temperature fields is developed and verified. This model is capable of predicting the temperature distributions with the local environmental conditions and material's thermal properties. Finally, a parametric study is employed to examine the sensitivities of several temperature influencing factors, including the hollow section configurations, environmental conditions, and material properties.
