In this study, in order to propose an efficient model to predict the torque capacity of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) beams, the existing experimental data related to torsional response of beams is reviewed. It is observed that existing data neglects the effects of some parameters on the variation of torque capacity. Thus, an experimental research was also conducted to obtain the effects of neglected parameters. In the experimental study, a total of seventeen SFRC beams are tested against torsion. The parameters considered in the experiments are concrete compressive strength, steel fiber aspect ratio, volumetric ratio of steel fibers and longitudinal reinforcement ratio. The effect of each parameter is discussed in terms of torque versus unit angle of twist graphs. The data obtained from this experimental research is also combined with the data got from previous studies and employed in artificial neural network (ANN) analysis to estimate the ultimate torque capacity of SFRC beams. In addition to parameters considered in the experiments, aspect ratio of beam cross-section, yield strengths of both transverse and longitudinal reinforcements, and transverse reinforcement ratio are also defined as parameters in ANN analysis due to their significant effects observed in previous studies. Assessment of the accuracy of ANN analysis in estimating the ultimate torque capacity of SFRC beams is performed by comparing the analytical and experimental results. Comparisons are conducted in terms of root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE) and coefficient of efficiency ($E_f$). The results of this study revealed that addition of steel fibers increases the ultimate torque capacity of reinforced concrete beams. It is also found that ANN is a powerful method and a feasible tool to estimate ultimate torque capacity of both normal and high strength concrete beams within the range of input parameters considered.

원자력 발전소에는 No.36(D36)이상의 대구경 철근이 사용되는데 이러한 대구경 철근으로 갈고리 정착을 할 경우, 기준에서 요구하는 구부림 및 갈고리 길이로 인해 설계 및 배근에 있어 큰 어려움을 겪을 수 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위한 방안으로 확대머리 철근을 사용할 수 있다. 2008년 개정된 ACI 318에서는 확대머리철근의 정착길이식을 도입하였으며, 제정 배경 연구를 근거로 하여 횡보강근의 영향력을 무시하고 있다. 그러나 확대머리 철근이 겹침이음이나 컷오프 구간에서 사용될 경우, 인장재에 의해 피복 콘크리트를 밀어내는 힘이 발생하여 횡보강근에 작용하는 인장력이 크게 증가한다. 본 연구의 목적은 휨을 받는 부재 내에 정착된 확대머리 철근의 정착성능에 대한 횡보강근의 영향력을 평가하는 것으로, 이를 위해 횡보강근의 간격을 변수로 한 대구경 확대머리 철근의 정착실험을 수행하였다. 실험방법으로는 컷오프 구간을 모사한 실험을 수행하였으며, 확대머리 철근으로는 D43의 대구경 철근을 사용하였다. 실험 결과, 횡보강근이 없는 실험체의 경우 정착구간의 쪼갬파괴에 이어 단부의 하중이 확대머리 부근의 콘크리트에 직접적으로 작용하면서 상부 피복 콘크리트가 부재에서 탈락하는 취성적인 파괴형태가 나타났다. 또한 확대머리 철근의 발현강도가 항복강도의 절반밖에 못 미치는 매우 낮은 내력을 보였다. 이에 반해 횡보강근이 배근된 실험체의 경우 경우 횡보강근이 실험체 단부의 하중에 직접적으로 저항함에 따라 실험체 내력이 큰 폭으로 상승하였다.

이 연구에서는, 기둥 횡방향 철근의 화재 후 잔존 역학적 특성 규명 연구의 일환으로, 횡철근비와 기둥의 고온 노출면 수 차이에 따른 횡방향 철근의 손실강도 보상효과를 잔존 압축강도, 변형률 및 탄성계수와 하중-변위 곡선의 상대적 비교분석을 통해 규명하였다. 실험변수로 띠철근의 간격과 고온 노출면 수를 변수로 한 실험체를 제작하여 가열실험을 수행하였다. 이때 전기로 온도를 $400^{\circ}C$, $600^{\circ}C$ 및 $800^{\circ}C$로 설정하여 $13.33^{\circ}C$/분의 속도로 가열하고 2시간동안 그 온도를 유지시켰다. 냉각된 실험체에 대해 응력-변형률 곡선을 구하기 위한 압축실험을 수행하고, 이로부터 탄성계수, 잔존 내력 및 변형률 등의 잔존 역학적 특성을 분석하였다. 실험결과, 고온 노출 면이 많은 기둥이 수열온도 증가에 따라 탄성계수 감소율이 크게 나타나고, 횡철근비가 크면 수열온도 증가에 따라 탄성계수 감소율이 작게 나타났는데, 이로부터 기둥위치와 횡철근비 등이 내화설계나 화재 안전진단 시 고려되어 합리적인 내화성능 평가가 이루어져야 할 것으로 여겨진다.

The corrosion of steel rebars has been the major cause of the reinforced concrete deterioration. It is FRP rebar that is developed to solve problem of such steel rebar. FRP rebar in concrete structures should be used as a substitute of steel rebars for that cases in which aggressive environment produce high steel corrosion, or lightweight is an important design factor, or transportation cost increase significantly with the weight of the materials. But FRP rebar have only linearly elastic behavior; whereas, steel rebar has linear elastic behavior up to the yield point followed by large plastic deformation and strain hardening. Thus, the current FRP rebars are not suitable concrete reinforcement where a large amount of plastic deformation prior to collapse in required. The main objective of this study was to develop new type of hybrid FRP rebar. The manufacture of the hybrid FRP rebar was achieved pultrusion, braiding and filament winding techniques. Tensile and interlaminar shear test results of hybrid FRP rebar can provide its excellent tensile strength-strain behavior and interlaminar stress-strain behavior.

This paper reports results of a study conducted to assess the effect of degree of corrosion of reinforcing steel bar on their mechanical properties. Reinforcing steel bars, 13mm in diameter, that were corroded by electrically accelerated corrosion method in concrete specimens were removed and tested in tension. Results indicated that the level of reinforcement corrosion influenced yield point, the tensile strength and elongation of steel bars.

TiNi/ Al6061 shape memory alloy (SMA) composite was fabricated by hot press method to investigate the microstructure and mechanical properties. Interface bonding between TiNi reinforcement and A1 matrix was observed by using SEM and EDS. Pre-strain was imposed to generate compressive residual stress inside composite. A tensile test for specimen, which under-went pre-strain, was performed at high temperature to evaluate the variation of strength and the effect of pre-strain. It was shown that interfacial reactions occurred at the bonding between matrix and fiber, creating two inter-metallic layers. And yield stress increased with the amount of pre-strain. Acoustic Emission technique was also used to nondestructively clarify the microscopic damage behavior at high temperature and the effect of pre-strain of TiNi/ Al6061 SMA composite.

In this paper, seismic performance evaluation was carried out for eight circular reinforced concrete columns designed seismically by KRTA[1]and KCI[8]. Primary design parameters for such columns included many longitudinal reinforcements, yield strength of reinforcements, the vertical spacing of spirals, aspect ratio, and axial force ratio. The test results showed that all the columns exhibited stable hysteretic and inelastic responses. Based on the test results, drift ratios corresponding to each damage state, such as initial yielding, initial cover spalling, initial core concrete crushing, buckling, and fracture of longitudinal reinforcement and final spalled region, were evaluated. Then, those ratios were compared with widely accepted damage limit states. The comparison revealed that the existing damage states were considerably conservative. This implies that additional research is required for the damage limit states of such columns designed seismically by current Korean design codes.

The modeling of loss of bond between reinforcing bars (rebars) and concrete due to corrosion is useful in studying the behavior and prediction of residual load bearing capacity of corroded reinforced concrete (RC) members. In the present work, first the possibility of using different methods to simulate the rebars-concrete bonding, which is used in three-dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) modeling of corroded RC beams, was explored. The cohesive surface interaction method was found to be most suitable for simulating the bond between rebars and concrete. Secondly, using the cohesive surface interaction approach, the 3D FE modeling of the behavior of non-corroded and corroded RC beams was carried out in an ABAQUS environment. Experimental data, reported in literature, were used to validate the models. Then using the developed models, a parametric study was conducted to examine the effects of some parameters, such as degree and location of the corrosion, on the behavior and residual capacity of the corroded beams. The results obtained from the parametric analysis using the developed model showed that corrosion in top compression rebars has very small effect on the flexural behaviors of beams with small flexural reinforcement ratio that is less than the maximum ratio specified in ACI-318-14 (singly RC beam). In addition, the reduction of steel yield strength in tension reinforcement due to corrosion is the main source of reducing the load bearing capacity of corroded RC beams. The most critical corrosion-induced damage is the complete loss of bond between rebars and the concrete as it causes sudden failure and the beam acts as un-reinforced beam.

직물형 유리섬유 조합에 따른 보강 집성재의 볼트 접합부 전단 성능을 알아보기 위하여 인장형 전단시험을 실시하였다. 보강재는 직물형 유리섬유로서 유리섬유 배열 형태는 평직형과 능직형을 사용하였다. 보강 집성재는 5층으로 직물형 유리섬유의 삽입 위치와 조합 형태를 달리하여 층재 사이에 삽입 적층시켜 제작하였다. 인장형 전단 시험편은 강판 삽입형로서 끝면거리 7D에 직경 12, 16 mm의 볼트로 접합하였다. 체적비 1% 직물형 유리섬유 보강 집성재의 경우 12 mm 볼트 접합부의 항복 전단내력은 집성재 외층부보다 내층부를 보강한 시험편에서 10% 큰 값을 나타내었다. 체적비 2% 직물형 유리섬유 보강 집성재의 항복 전단내력은 12 mm 볼트 접합부의 경우 각층재 사이에 삽입 적층시킨 시험편이 보강하지 않은 접합부보다 약 22% 향상되었으며, 16 mm 볼트 접합부의 항복 전단내력은 약 20% 향상되었다.
