Welded built-up square tubes are manufactured by flare welding at the center of the column width for cold-formed L-shaped four-piece plates and improved composite effect of concrete and steel by vertical inner anchor. Also, the axial resistance of concrete is increased by the thinness of the steel column, and the composite effect of concrete and steel prevents the steel column from local buckling. In this study, we introduced a manufacturing method of built-up square column steel square concrete-filled tubular column with vertical inner anchor and superior structural performance of the square stub column verified by the structural test for 15 specimens with parameters of shape of tube (built-up square tube, general steel tube), width over thickness of the steel tube (B/t=50, 58, 67) and the strength of concrete (f'c=10MPa, 50MPa).

풍력타워 기둥구조물에는 유지관리 등의 이유로 출입구 역할을 하는 개구부가 존재하게 된다. 다각형 타워구조물에 개구부형상이 존재하게 되면 압축좌굴 강도에 영향이 있을 것으로 예상되지만, 이를 정량적으로 평가하거나 예측하기는 용이하지 않고 간접적으로 판단할 만한 관련 기준이나 지침도 부족한 상태이다. 이에 최병호 등(2011)에서 다룬 다각형 단면 기둥구조물의 하단에 개구부를 형상화한 수치해석 모델을 수립하고 축방향 압축하중을 재하하는 탄성좌굴 해석 및 비선형비탄성해석을 수행하였다. 본 논문에서는 기존 다각형 단면 기둥모델 중에서 6각형 단면모델에 관해 중점적으로 다루고 있다. 다각형 단면 기둥 해석모델은 단순한 다각형 단면 타워구조에 대해서 뿐 만 아니라, 각 subpanel에 종방향 보강재를 둔 모델에 대해서도 추가적으로 검토하였다. 개구부의 형상은 높이 2000mm, 폭 800mm이며 상하부에 만곡부를 둔 형태이다. 수치해석은 3차원 유한요소해석프로그램인 ABAQUS를 이용하여 수행하였으며, 보강방안으로는 일정범위까지의 모듈 subpanel의 판두께를 보강하는 방안과 edge stiffener를 적용하는 방안에 대해서 검토하였다. 각각의 보강방식에 따른 효과를 비교해 보기 위해 개구부가 없는 모델, 단순히 개구부만 설정한 모델, 판두께를 보강한 모델, edge stiffener로 보강한 모델에 대해 비교해석을 수행하였다. 보강재 없는 단순 다각형 타워구조 모델에 대한 해석결과로부터 개구부로 인한 강도저하는 미미한 수준인 것으로 나타났다. 반면, 종방향 보강재가 적용된 6각형 단면 타워구조 모델에서는 개구부로 인한 강도저감이 22.9%로 높게 나타났으며 상당한 영향이 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 개구부 주변의 판두께 보강이나 edge stiffener보강 등으로 상당한 강도향상 효과가 확인되었으나, 개구부로 인해 손실된 강도 수준을 완전히 회복하는 수준에 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 향후 다양한 보강방식에 대한 보다 포괄적인 변수연구를 통해 개구부의 영향 없이 온전한 다각형 단면 타워 구조의 극한강도에 도달되기 위한 보강 조건에 대해 검토될 필요가 있을 것으로 사료된다.

This study is to evaluate the ductility strengthening effect of aramid fiber sheets on piloti-type structures. Two piloti-type structure specimens were prepared and tested under statical cyclic lateral loads. The ductility strengthening effect was validated from the analysis of lateral load-displacement relationship, displacement ductility ratio, work damage index and torsion behavior. Test results showed that the post-peak behavior of piloti-type structures with columns strengthened with aramid fiber sheets tended to be ductile resulting from preventing shear failure and minimizing torsion due to the effective lateral confinement of column concrete by aramid fiber sheet. Consequently, the displacement ductility ratio and work damage index of piloti-type structures with columns with strengthened with aramid fiber sheets were 4.63 and 42.81 times higher than those of non strengthened piloti-type structures.

This study presents an example of conceptual design for hollow circular section multi-column tower system subjected to 10MW level wind load by introducing a method based on member utilization that examine both structural stability and economical efficiency. The basic assumptions for the proto type of a multi-column tower that can replace a single-cylinder tower were suggested and structural models were constructed following the assumptions and analyzed for identifying member forces. Based on the calculated member strengths and acting loads, the member utilization of the proposed multi-column tower structures were calculated for axial force, shear, bending and torsion and evaluaed for suitability as a wind tower. Design parameters such as steel tube dimensions, slenderness ratio, and number of floors for braces was proposed in the acceptable range of member utilization for conceptual design of multi-column wind towers.

This paper reports a new beam-to-column connection that is suitable for use in the weak axis of a column. The proposed system mainly uses bolts, and it minimizes the use of welding, which is generally difficult to perform onsite. In this system, a H-shape steel beam is joined to a H-shape steel column by bolted splices at the top flange and without a scallop at the web. The structural performance of the proposed connection was verified through full-scale tests of nine specimens, taking into account the effects of the geometry and arrangement of the plate.

This study presents graphic-user interface computer program for optimal compensation of differential column shortening with high field applicability. The implemented system can perform both relative and mixed compensation while satisfying both performance and construction constraints. In the proposed system the shape of the structure before and after compensation can be checked graphically, and the results of compensation of each stories can be printed in drawings which can be directly used as the report of column shortening. The field-applicability of the implemented system was verified by applying it to the four reinforced concrete residental buildings of 61, 42, 49 and 53 stories where compensation of differential column shortening had already been performed. Using the implemented system, compensation can be performed easily with the various constraint conditions and was able to acquire rational compensation results for the cases where conventional method was not successful.

The objective of this study is to examine the structural performance on the Rectangular Steel Tube Column-to-H Beam connections using one-side bolts and T-stub. Although a rectangular steel tube comparing with a H-shaped steel has many advantages and is more efficient, its application is limited due to the lack of experiences and connection details. Existing steel moment connections using the rectangular steel tube are mainly using through plate diaphragms. Its processing of construction is so complicated that it is hard to apply in the field. In this study, the structural performance and the earthquake capacity for T-stub connection with one-side bolts were investigated. And it is performed a comparative analysis of strength, rigidity, total rotation and energy absorption capacity for the various connection details.

In this study, the response modification factor for a RC IMRF is evaluated via pushover analysis, where 5-story structures were designed in accordance with KBC2009. The bending moment-curvature relationship for beams and columns was identified with a fiber model, and the bending moment-rotation relationship for beam-column joints was calculated using a simple and unified joint shear behavior model and the moment equilibrium relationship for the joint. The results of the pushover analysis showed that the strength of the structure was overestimated with negligence of the inelastic shear behavior of the beam-column joint, and that the average response modification factor for category C was 7.78 and the factor for category D was 3.64.

This paper summarizes the full-scale test results on the CFT column-to-flat plate connections subjected to gravity loading. CFT construction has gained wide acceptance in a relatively short time in domestic building construction practice due to its various structural and construction advantages. Constructing an underground parking floor as a flat plate system is often regarded as essential for both cost savings and rapid construction. Efficient details for CFT-column-to-flat-plate connections have not been proposed yet, however, and their development is urgently needed. Based on some strategies that maximize economical field construction, several connecting schemes were proposed and tested based on a full-scale model. The test results showed that the proposed connection details can exhibit punching shear strength and connection stiffness comparable to or greater than those of their R/C flat plate counterpart.
