The inelastic design of the three-span continuous composite plate girder with consideration of moment redistribution over the interior pier is performed using the LRFD method. The design of the girder section, based on the inelastic method, is compared with that by the conventional elastic design. The length of the center span for the three-span continuous bridge ranges from 40m to 70m and the relative ratio of the span length is assumed to be 4:5:4. Although the AASHTO- LRFD specifications are applied in the design of the composite girder, the recently proposed new design live load is used. After determining the maximum positive and negative sections by the elastic design for various limit states, the amount of moment redistributed to the maximum positive moment section is calculated. With the increased design moment due to moment redistribution from the interior pier, the maximum positive section designed by the elastic method is checked for the strength limit state and the service limit state. The maximum negative moment section is redesigned by reducing the size of the steel girder relative to the section designed by the elastic method and the new section is checked for the service limit state. Based on the design results for the five bridges considered in this study, it is estimated that about 23% of steel can be saved in the interior pier section if it is designed by the inelastic method compared with that designed by the elastic method.

In civil engineering applications, the establishment of standards and procedures for analysis, design, fabrication, construction, and quality control are essential in facilitating the economic and efficient use of composite materials. Many bridge systems, including girders. cross beams, and concrete decks, function as specially orthotropic plates. in general, the analytical solution for such complex systems is very difficult to achieve. Thus, the finite difference method is used for the analysis of the problem. The rate of tensile strength reduction due to increased size is considered. Strength reduction is necessary to ensure the safe design of building structures. This paper suggests the use of a strength-failure analysis procedure using the reduced tensile strength. A numerical study is conducted for different cases. The Tasi-Wu failure criterion for stress space is also used.

홍수터에 식재된 수목에 의한 운동량 교환은 흐름의 추가적인 흐름저항으로 작용한다. 따라서 수목으로 인한 통수능의 감소로 부분적인 유속 상승이 발생하기도 하지만, 전반적으로 평균유속이 감소하며 수위는 상승하게 된다. 실무적 사용목적으로 홍수터 수목의 저항은 통합 매개변수인 합성조도계수가 사용되고 있으나, 정량적인 조도계수의 추정은 매우 어려운 문제이다. 본 연구에서는 경험적으로 추정되는 비정량적 합성조도 계수의 한계를 극복하고, 실무적으로 사용이 용이하도록 수목에 의한 흐름저항 항을 분리한 1차원 상류이송 음해기법이 개발되었다. 개발된 기법의 평가를 위하여 균일한 단면에서 수행된 수리실험에 적용하였으며, 다양한 유량규모 및 식재조건에서 제안된 기법의 적용성 및 정확성을 확인하였다. 불규칙한 단면형상을 가진 실제 하천의 홍수터에 식재된 수목군의 경우를 가정하여 1/25 정상축척의 수리실험을 실시하였고, 100년 빈도 홍수량에서 수목식재 전후의 실측결과를 개발된 수치기법으로 계산하여 비교하였다. 개발된 기법은 모든 경우에서 사용자의 주관적인 판단 없이 정확하면서 안정적인 해를 제공하였으므로, 흐름의 2차원 효과가 상쇄될 수 있는 광폭의 자연하천에서 수목의 식재기준 분석을 위한 대안으로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

Since wall system apartment used the shear wall as main lateral resistance member, installation of openings which causing section loss of walls may cause significant problem to structure. Also, there are few studies for inducing coupling beam or slabs which are occurred by installing openings. Therefore, this study planned isolated 2-story shear walls which are reduced three half-scale specimen to find out walls behavior characteristic. The test results showed that strength reduction caused by loss of effective section of walls and different result of stiffness and energy dissipation regarding to the coupling beam and coupling slabs.

A model for the effective moment of inertia $I_{\epsilon}$ as expressed in Branson's equation, in which reduction of the flexural rigidity of RC beams due to cracking are aptly taken into accoun,t is presented. However, KCI Code isn`t considered tension stiffening as it is in debonding of reinforcing bar. Therefore, this equation need to set up suitable to our design Code. The experimental work consisted of casting and testing a total of 6 simply supported reinforced concrete beams and a total of 4 continuos reinforced concrete beams under two point concentrated loads. Main parameters are concrete strength, coverage, bond between concrete and reinforcing bars, are known as have an effect on deflection and tension stiffening. Every test beams had the same $250{\times}350$mm rectangular section, with a simply supported clear span of 4,400 mm and a continuos clear span of 6,500 mm. Comparison of the test results with values obtained using the KCI Code equation of the effective moment of inertia showed a noticeable difference.

A restraint coefficient for creep and dry shrinkage deformation of concrete in a composite section was derived to calculate the residual stress, and an equation for the loss rate of the pre-compression force was proposed. The derived restraint coefficient was computed by using the transformed section properties for the age-adjusted effective modulus of elasticity. The long-term behavior of complicate composite sections could be analyzed easily with the restraint coefficient. The articles of the current design code was examined for PSC and steel composite sections. The dry shrinkage strains of $150 ~ 200$\times$10^{-6}$ for the computations of the statically indeterminate force and the expansion joint could be under-estimated for less restrained sections such as the reinforced concrete. The dry shrinkage strain of $180$\times$10^{-6}$ for the computation of residual stress in the steel composite section was unreasonably less value. The loss rate of 16.3% of the design code for the PSC composite section in this study was conservative for the long-term deformation of the ACI 205 but could not be used safely for that of the Eurocode 2. For pre-compressed concrete slab in the steel composite section, the loss rate of prestressed force with low strength reinforcement was much larger than that with high strength tendon. The loss rate of concrete pre-compression increased, while that of pre-tension decreased due to the restraint of the steel girder.

As an emerging materials in construction fields, FRP(fiber reinforced polymer) has been used in many area of civil engineering for its light weight and high strength. In this study we chose the 2nd Jindo-Bridge as a prototype, and evaluate effect of replacing steel components to FRP components through simplified 3D linear analysis. Static and modal analysis are done and the analysis results are compared with steel case analysis. From the static analysis results, the maximum stress of each component and maximum displacement of middle span are compared. Due to the reduction of deadload, the FRP structure causes less deflection than the original steel structure and from the reduced section (cable) analysis we confirmed the previous result. The occurrence wind velocity of flutter is compared by the frequency ratio.

A test program was conducted on seismic-resistant steel moment connections constructed using Reduced Beam Sections with beam web openings. In the connection, in order to enhance ductility capacity under severe cyclic loads, a portion of the beam web near the beam-to-column connection is cut out instead of the beam flange as in dogbone connections. A total of 4 large scale specimens were tested in this program. The specimens were all made using $H-458{\times}417{\times}30{\times}50$ sections for the columns and $H-792{\times}300{\times}14{\times}22$ sections for the beams. Test specimens showed excellent performance similar to that of dogbone connections.

The optimal design for Electro-magnetic Launcher (EML : Rail Gun) considering structural and electrical constraints are presented. For the structure of EML under high pulsed currency, the cross section is minimized subject to maximum stress of each element(rail, side wall, ceramic, and steel) within allowable stress and preload limits. The electrical constraint is the effective ceramic thickness which prevents the eddy current effect reducing the performance of EML. The stress analysis and optimization procedure of 90mm EML is conducted with ANSYS Code. The optimal design under preload is reduced to 53% of area compared with optimal design without preload. In case of rail with arc angle .theta.=45.deg., the performance of EML is the best among the other rail arc angles. The optimal design for rail with arc angle .theta.=45.deg., results in the reduction of 9% of area and 10.4% of deformation compared with Fahrenthold's design. The optimal preload 59.8MPa is much lower than Fahrenthold's design(186MPa). The results show that the optimal design of EML meets the design requirements.

급속한 도시화와 산업화로 보수 및 유수기능이 감소하였고, 세계적인 기후변화로 국지성호우가 빈번히 발생하여 기존 우수관망시스템의 문제점이 야기되고 있다. 최근 발생하는 도시유역의 홍수 피해는 대부분이 내수에 의한 침수 피해로 이러한 피해를 감소시키기 위해서는 도시하천에 적합한 강우-유출모형을 이용하여 침수 위험 유역을 정확히 예측하여 사전 보강 및 예 경보를 수행하는 것이 중요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 최근들어 잦은 침수피해가 발생한 도림천 유역을 대상으로 강우-유출모형인 XP-SWMM을 이용하여 민감도 및 미래 유출 특성변화 분석을 수행하였다. 첫 번째로, 지형자료 및 관거 자료, 2014년에 완공된 저류지 및 펌프시설 자료를 모두 적용하여 유역의 특성을 최대한 반영한 모형을 설계하고 실측유량과 모형유량을 비교하여 최적화된 모형임을 확인하였다. 두 번째로, 최적화된 모형의 매개변수를 기준으로 인자별 민감도 분석을 수행하여 현재 도림천의 유출특성을 살펴보았다. 마지막으로 미래 경향을 예측할 수 있는 인자인 강우량과 불투수율의 경향성을 반영하여 도림천 유역의 미래 유출특성(첨두유출량, 침수심, 침수면적, 홍수위)의 변화를 검토하였다. 민감도 분석결과 강우량을 20% 감소시켰음에도 최대 침수심과 침수면적이 3.772m, 침수면적이 $5.027km^2$로 여전한 내수침수가 발생하고 있어 도림천 유역이 치수로 부터 취약한 지역임을 확인하였다. 비정상성 빈도해석으로 강우를 산정하고 log형 회귀식으로 불투수율을 산정하여 도림천 유역의 미래 유출특성을 모의한 결과 2020년과 2030년의 최대침수심이 각각 4.9352m, 4.9954m로 현재의 최대 침수심(4.8093m)보다 평균 0.156m 증가하였다. 마지막으로 현재와 미래의 홍수위와 여유고를 이용하여 제방안전성 평가를 수행한 결과, 현재에도 전체구간이 안전구간으로 이루어져 있지 않으며 2030년으로 갈수록 안정단면은 평균 8.5% 감소하고 위험단면은 평균 17% 증가함을 확인하였다. 향후 본 연구의 결과를 이용하여 추후 침수피해 저감을 위한 대응방안 및 효과적인 대피소, 대피경로 수립 등에 활용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
