Recently, a great progress has been made in bridge construction technology through the development of high performance materials and new structural types. However, most of attention has been paid to the cast-in-place technologies and material cost saving. The cast-in-place method is always subject to some environmental damages in construction sites, which frequently causes conflicts with residents. To overcome the disadvantages, a lot of fabrication construction method was developed. Most fabrication construction methods developed up to now have been applied for superstructure of bridges. In contrast, such fabricable methods developed for substructures are extremely rare. A fabricated column using ICH CFT(Internally Confined Hollow CFT) column was developed in a series of previous researches. Included in the previous studies are design and construction methods for the precast segmental coping, the column-coping connection, the column-segment connection, column-foundation connection. In this paper, seismic performance of the fabricated ICH CFT columns was extensively investigated experimentally. Two test specimens were prepared depending on the connection methods of segments; one by mortar-grouting method and the other by reinforcement method using stiffeners.

This paper deals with geometrical non-linear analyses of the tapered cantilever column subjected to the sub-tangential follower force at the free end. Cross-sections of the column whose flexural rigidities are functionally varied with the axial coordinate. The differential equations governing the elastica of such column are derived on the basis of the large deformation theory. These differential equations have three unknown parameters of the vertical and horizontal deflections and rotation at the free end. These differential equations are numerically solved by the iteration technique for obtaining three unknowns and elastica of the deformed column. For validating theories developed herein, laboratory scaled experiments are conducted.

Since the structure systems of construction projects have been forced to be large, high-rised, and complex, many researchers have been put their efforts to develop high strength concrete incorporating diverse advanced materials. In order to improve the performance of the concrete, the fibers leading high ductility to concrete have been used, consequently concrete columns adopting High-Performance Fiber Cement(HPFC) have been developed. This paper analyzed not only the construction work process of HPFC column installed to the real construction project, but also construction productivity of the columns by using discrete event simulation technique. As a result, several considerations on installing such a column have identified, compared with the works for typical concrete columns. In particular, there was specific characteristic to install the columns in terms of labor resource productivity, which is not shown with the work for the typical concrete columns.

비정질 실리콘 (a-Si)의 수소화를 통해 활성화 수소가 비정질 실리콘내의 댕글링본드 (dangling bond) 와 결합 하므로 에너지밴드의 국재준위(localized state)를 감소시켜 불순물 도핑이 가능하게 되므로 a-Si 이 전자소자로서 이용 가능하게 되었다. 이에 착안하여 본 연구에서는 경사($0^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$, $80^{\circ}$) 증착을 통해 비정질 칼코게나이드($a-As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$) 박막을 제작하고 그 박막을 수소화처리 (15~20atm at $150\sim190^{\circ}C$)하여 처리 전 후의 surface morphology 변화 및 광학적 특성 변화를 고찰하였다. $a-As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ 박막의 SEM 측정을 통해 $40^{\circ}$와 $80^{\circ}$ 경사 증착된 $a-As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ 박막에서 각각 18.8nm 와 160nm의 transition layer와 박막의 기둥(columnar)구조가 형성됨을 관찰하였다. 특히, $80^{\circ}$ 증착박막의 경우 수소처리전 columnar구조는 약 $65\sim70^{\circ}$의 기둥 각을 가지고 형성되었고 수소화 처리를 통해 기둥구조가 붕괴 되었다. $70^{\circ}$ 경사 증착된 $a-As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ 박막은 $0^{\circ}$에 따른 박막 보다 흡수단 부근에서 약 20%의 투과도 증가와 광 에너지 갭 ($E_{op}$)의 증가를 관찰 할 수 있었다. $80^{\circ}$경사 증착된 수소처리 박막에서 흡수단 부근의 투과도가 약 10%증가 되었고, 광 에너지 갭은 약 0.07eV 증가 하였고, PL intensity는 흡수단 부근에서 증가한 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 이러한 변화들은 경사 증착된 $a-As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ 박막 내의 상대적으로 원자 밀도가 큰 기둥(columnar)구조가 생성되고, 이 원자 밀도가 높은 기둥구조의 댕글링본드와 주입된 수소가 흡착하여 에너지대의 국재준위를 감소시키기 때문으로 판단된다.

A study on the structural dissipation energy and crushing strong is presented for the axially compressed straight square box column and off-axially compressed tapered box column. A new formula on the energy dissipation and crushing strength of the tapered box column is proposed, where the tapered box column is replaced by the equivalent straight square box column. It is seen that the theoretical solutions agree well with experimental results.

Stone column is one of the soft ground improvement method, which can enhance ground conditions such as the settlement reduction and the increasement of bearing capacity with applying the crushed stone instead of sand. In recent, general construction material, sand is in short of supply. Therefore, the bearing capacity improvement by the stone column is considered as the alternative method needed in many cases so the bearing capacity estimation is considered as important point. Nevertheless, adequate estimation methods to predict bearing capacity of stone column considering stone column and improvement effect of ground is not yet prepared. For the analysis of above mentioned points, the behavior of stone column were simulated as numerically on various property cases of crushed stone and surrounded ground. Through the numerical analysis of simulation results, the formula for the bearing capacity estimation of stone column was suggested. This formula was verified by comparing the prediction result of in situ test.

DWDM 필터와 같은 간섭필터는 밴드폭이 좁아지고 투과파장에 해당하는 채널의 수가 증가함에 따라 투과파장의 외부환경에 대한 안정성이 중요하다. 기존의 전자빔 증착법으로 증착된 유전체 다층박막은 일반적으로 미세기둥구조로 인해 낮은 조밀도를 가지기 때문에 외부의 습도나 온도 변화 등에 민감하다. 낮은 조밀도의 유전체 다층박막을 대기 중에 노출되었을 때, 대기 중의 습기가 기둥과 기둥 사이로 침투되어 유효굴절률의 증가로 인하여 박막의 광학두께가 증가하게 되고 결국 스펙트럼이 장파장으로 이동하게 된다. (중략)

The present study evaluated the effective arrangement approach of transverse reinforcement in the jacket section for seismic strengthening of reinforced concrete columns. To simulate the full-scale columns, the section dimensions were determined as $450{\times}450mm$ for non-seismic existing columns and $750{\times}750mm$ for section enlargement strengthening columns. Over-lapped channel-shape bars and prefabricated bar units were proposed for closed-hoops in the jacket section, and conventional cross-ties anchored into existing columns and V-ties were considered for the supplementary ties. Test results showed that the axial capacity of the existing column and section enlargement columns with over-lapped channel-shape hoops was similar to the nominal strength calculated using ACI 318-14 procedure whereas the section enlargement column with prefabricated bar units possessed 1.25 times higher axial capacity than the nominal prediction. Furthermore, the axial ductility ratio of the section enlargement column with prefabricated bar unit was 139% higher than that of the existing column despite the potential size effect on ductility of concrete. Thus, it can be concluded that the developed prefabricated bar unit technique is practically useful for preventing the premature buckling of longitudinal reinforcement and confining core concrete in the section enlargement strengthening columns.

The beam-column connection is the critical design section of general steel frame structures owing to the behavioral characteristics of the structural system. As most members of a frame structure are composed of rolled section beams, the cross-section of the beam members is governed by the negative bending moment near beam-column connections. Such a design concept leaves a redundant load-carrying capacity at the positive bending regions of the beam members leading to design inefficiency. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to redistribute the beam end moments and reduce the stresses at the beam-column connections for a more efficient design of steel frame structures. In this study, reaction-moment prestressing method (RMPM) was proposed for the innovative design and construction of steel frame structures. The RMPM is a prestressing method utilizing the elastic bending deformation of a beam member induced by temporary prestressing for the distribution of a relatively large bending moment to other sections for the efficient use of the beam section. By the application of the RMPM, the negative bending moment at the beam-column connections can be significantly reduced, ultimately leading to possible use of smaller beam sections. Through a series of model tests and numerical analyses of steel frame structures, the moment distributing effect and feasibility of the RMPM was verified.
