Ultra high performance concrete (UHPC) can be used in the UHPC-steel composite structures especially for bridge structures to achieve high stiffness and high fatigue resistance with low self-weight. The structural performances of UHPC-steel composite slabs subjected to hogging moment have a significant influence on the global stiffness and durability of UHPC-steel composite structures. In order to study the structural behaviors of non-steam-cured UHPC-steel composite slabs subjected to negative moment, five composite slabs combined the thin UHPC layers to steel plates via shear stud connecters with the diameter of 16mm were fabricated and tested under negative moment. The test program aimed to investigate the effect of stud spacing and longitudinal reinforcement ratios on the failure mode, load-deflection behaviors, cracking patterns, bond-slips, and carrying capacities of composite slabs subjected to negative moment. In addition, direct tensile tests for the dog-bone UHPC specimens with longitudinal reinforcement bars were carried out to study the effect of reinforcement bars on the tensile strength of UHPC in the thin structure members. Based on the experimental results, analytical models were also developed to predict the cracking load and ultimate load of UHPC-steel composite slabs subjected to negative moment.

파형강판 구조물은 강판 세그먼트를 현장에서 볼트연결하고, 양질의 뒷채움 시공을 통해 시공성을 높일 수 있기 때문에 최근 생태통로, 소규모 교량 및 관로 등에 폭넓게 시공되고 있다. 본 연구는 휨하중을 받는 볼트연결된 파형강판 세스먼트의 정적 및 피로거동을 실험적으로 분석하였다. 피로거동을 분석하기 위하여 볼트 직경, 와셔와 같은 연결부 상세를 실험변수로 하였으며, 실험에 사용된 실험체의 파형의 제원은 $400{\times}150$ mm이다. 정적실험 결과 모든 실험체의 실험 극한강도가 이론강도보다 높게 나타났으며, 강판의 지압 및 상부강판 볼트구멍의 찢김에 의해 파괴되었다. 6mm와 7mm 강판에 대하여 하중범위 209kN에서 517kN사이로 피로실험을 수행하였으며, 실험결과 정적 파괴시의 강판지압과 찢김파괴에서 피로실험시에는 강판지압과 볼트 전단의 형태로 변화하였으며, 2백만회 피로한계는 대략 85MPa로 분석되었다.

This paper summarises the results of an experimental study to investigate the flexural behaviour of reinforced concrete beams strengthened using carbon-fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminate in four-point bending. The experimental parameters included are the reinforcing bar ratio ${\rho}_s$ and preload level. Four bar ratios were selected (${\rho}_s=0.13$ to 0.86%), representing the section of two longitudinal tensile reinforcements, with diameters of 8, 14, 16, and 20 mm in order to reveal the effect of bar ratio on failure load and failure mode. Eight beams that could be considered "full-scale" in size, measuring 200 mm in width, 400 mm in total height and 2300 mm in length, were tested. Three beams were selected with different bar ratios (${\rho}_1$, ${\rho}_2$, ${\rho}_3$), and considered as control specimens (without ), while three other beams identical to the control beams with the same CFRP laminates ratio and a seventh beam with ${\rho}_{min}$ (the lowest bar ratio) were also used. In the second part of the study, two beams with the bar ratio ${\rho}_2$ were preloaded at two levels, 50 and 100% of their ultimate loads, and then repaired. This experimental investigation was consolidated using an analytical model. The experimental and analytical results indicate that the flexional capacity and stiffness of strengthened and repaired beams using CFRP laminate were increased compared to those of control beams, and the behaviour of repaired beams was nearly similar to the undamaged and strengthened beams; unlike the ductility of strengthened beams, which was greatly reduced compared to the control.

Corrugated steel plate shear wall (CSPSW) as an innovative lateral load resisting system provides various advantages in comparison with the flat steel plate shear wall, including remarkable in-plane and out-of-plane stiffnesses and stability, greater elastic shear buckling stress, increasing the amount of cumulative dissipated energy and maintaining efficiency even in large story drifts. Employment of low yield point (LYP) steel web plate in steel shear walls can dramatically improve their structural performance and prevent early stage instability of the panels. This paper presents a comprehensive structural performance assessment of corrugated low yield point steel plate shear walls having circular openings located in different positions. Accordingly, following experimental verification of CSPSW finite element models, several trapezoidally horizontal CSPSW (H-CSPSW) models having LYP steel web plates as well as circular openings (for ducts) perforated in various locations have been developed to explore their hysteresis behavior, cumulative dissipated energy, lateral stiffness, and ultimate strength under cyclic loading. Obtained results reveal that the rehabilitation of damaged steel shear walls using corrugated LYP steel web plate can enhance their structural performance. Furthermore, choosing a suitable location for the circular opening regarding the design purpose paves the way for the achievement of the shear wall's optimal performance.

Titanium and its alloys have been widely using in the various field of industry application due to high corrosion resistant properties and mechanical properties. Titanium is highly reactive in the high temperature state and the formation of titanium oxide and porosities in the nuggets of fusion welding will results in the degradation of the mechanical properties. For this reason the studies of friction stir welding for titanium have been investigated recently. The FSW zones of titanium were classified by the weld nugget (WN), the linear transition boundary (TB) and the heat affected zone (HAZ). The WN along with titanium parent was characterized by the presence of twins and dislocations. The average grain size and hardness of WN has been changed according to heat input. The grain refinement resulted from the FSW increased the hardness in the stir zone. Sound dissimilar joints between SUS 304 and CP-Ti were achieved using an advancing speed of 50 mm/min and rotation speeds in the range of 700-1100 rpm. Aluminum 1060 and titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V plates were lap joined by friction stir welding, hence the ultimate tensile shear strength of joint reached 100% of Al 1060. Mg alloy and Ti were successfully butt joined by inserting a probe into the Mg alloy plate with slightly offsetting. But Ti-Al intermetallic compound layers formed at the interface of these joints.

층고 감소, 내력 증대 등의 장점을 가지고 있는 기존 합성보의 특징 뿐만 아니라 사용 강재량의 감소까지 기대할 수 있는 단부 보강한 합성보(Eco-girder) 시스템이 개발되었다. Eco-girder 시스템의 개념은 효율적인 합성보의 설계를 위해 최대 모멘트가 발생하는 양단부만을 강판을 이용하여 보강하고, 중앙부 모멘트에 의하여 철골보 크기를 결정하는 구조시스템이다. 본 연구에서는 반복 휨하중을 받는 단부보강 합성보의 이력거동을 예측하기 위해 정밀한 FEM(Finite Element Method)보다는 간단한 표현과 동시에 원리에 충실한 수치적분에 의한 면내수치해석방법(Fiber Element Analysis)을 이용하였으며, 선행 연구된 실험 결과와의 비교를 통해 수치해석방법의 타당성을 검증하였다. 또한 기존 합성보와의 이력거동을 비교 분석하였다.

이 연구에서는 기존 프리캐스트 콘크리트 (Precast concrete, PC) 더블월 시스템의 복잡한 제작 공정을 간소화하면서 콘크리트 패널 형성 시 발생할 수 있는 레이턴스 등의 결함을 제거하고자 고안된 새로운 PC 더블월 공법을 소개하고 이때, PC 패널이 운반 또는 현장 콘크리트 타설 시 손상되지 않고 간격을 유지하는 역할을 하는 각형 강관에 대한 인장저항 성능을 규명하기 위한 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 각형 강관의 단부 상세를 변수로 인장실험을 계획하였으며 개구부 형성에 따른 강판의 처리방법, 매립 콘크리트의 존치 유무, 추가적인 장부작용 확보를 위한 철근용접 등을 변수로 설정하여 효과적인 강관 단부 상세를 도출하고자 하였다. 결과적으로, 강관 단부의 측면을 절개한 강판을 강관 단부 방향 안쪽으로 절곡한 강관 실험체 (ST_CP)를 제외하고 기준실험체 (ST)에 비하여 20~30% 가량 증가한 최대 인장강도를 나타내었다. 기준실험체 내부에 콘크리트를 채운 실험체 (ST_CON)가 PC 더블월 제작 시 구성되는 각형 강관 연결부와 유사한 상세를 가지며 추가적인 시공과정과 비용이 요구되지 않으므로 가장 적합한 연결상세인 것으로 판단된다.
