Abstract

The strut-tie model approach has been recognized as an efficient methodology for the design of all types of concrete members with D-regions, and the approach has been accepted in design codes globally. However, the design of concrete members with the approach requires many iterative numerical structural analyses, numerous graphical calculations, enormous times and efforts, and designer's subjective decisions in terms of the development of appropriate strut-tie model, determination of required areas of struts and ties, and verification of strength conditions of struts and nodal zones. In this study, a computer graphics program, that enables the design of concrete members efficiently and professionally by overcoming the forementioned limitations of the strut-tie model approach, is developed. In the computer graphics program, the numerical programs that are essential in the strut-tie model analysis and design of concrete members including finite element analysis programs for the plane truss and solid problems with all kinds of boundary conditions, a program for automatic determination of effective strengths of struts and nodal zones, and a program for graphical verification of developed strut-tie model's appropriateness by displaying various geometrical shapes of struts and nodal zones, are loaded. Great efficiency and convenience during the application of the strut-tie model approach may be provided by the various graphics environment-based functions of the proposed program.

스트럿-타이 모델 방법은 응력교란영역을 갖는 콘크리트 구조부재의 설계에 효과적인 방법으로 알려져 있으며, 세계 주요 설계기준서에 채택되고 있다. 그러나 스트럿-타이 모델 방법에 의한 콘크리트 구조부재의 설계과정은 스트럿-타이 모델의 형성, 스트럿 및 타이의 필요단면적의 결정, 스트럿 및 절점영역의 강도검토 등으로 인한 반복적인 수치해석과정, 많은 도식적 계산과정, 엄청난 시간과 노력, 그리고 여러 단계에서의 설계자의 주관적인 판단 등을 필요로 하는 단점을 내포하고 있다. 이 연구에서는 스트럿-타이 모델 설계과정 상의 단점을 극복하여 모든 콘크리트 구조부재의 스트럿-타이 모델 해석 및 설계를 전문적이며 효과적으로 수행할 수 있는 컴퓨터 그래픽 프로그램을 개발하였다. 이 연구의 컴퓨터 그래픽 프로그램은 평면고체 및 평면트러스의 선형 및 재료비선형 해석을 위한 모든 종류의 경계조건을 소화할 수 있는 유한요소해석 프로그램, 스트럿 및 절점영역 유효강도의 자동적 결정을 위한 수치해석 프로그램, 다양한 형태의 스트럿 및 절점영역의 형상 결정을 위한 그래픽 프로그램 등을 포함한 콘크리트 구조부재의 스트럿-타이 모델 해석 또는 설계과정 상에 필요한 모든 프로그램을 탑재하고 있다. 이 연구의 프로그램은 그래픽 환경을 접목시킨 여러 다양한 기능을 통해 콘크리트 구조부재의 모델링 및 스트럿-타이 모델 해석 및 설계 시 뛰어난 효율성과 편의성을 제공할 것이다.
