본 논문에서는 재료적 성능이 우수하며 경량재료로서 최근 건설구조물에 활용하고자 하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있는 섬유보강재료(FRP : Fiber Reinforced Polymer)를 이용한 합성구조인 CFFT(Concrete Filled FRP Tube)의 설계프로그램을 개발하여 제안하고자 하였다. 먼저, CFFT구조는 FRP관에 의해 철근콘크리트가 구속되는 구조로서 기둥과 같이 축력이 도입되는 경우 포아송효과에 의한 변형을 FRP관이 구속효과를 줌으로써 콘크리트의 역학적 거동을 개선하게 되는데 본 연구에서는 실험에 의해 검증된 식을 제시하였으며 이를 바탕으로 CFFT구조를 설계하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 또한 CFFT구조는 FRP관의 구속으로 인해 고강도콘크리트와 긴장재의 도입이 가능한 구조로서 이에 대한 설계도 포함하였다. 그러나 이방성재료인 FRP의 설계와 동시에 FRP관에 의한 구속효과를 고려하는 CFFT구조의 설계는 일반 실무설계자들에게는 다소 난해한 작업으로써 전산화 설계프로그램의 필요성이 대두되어 본 연구에서 CFFT구조의 설계프로그램을 개발하였다. 개발된 설계프로그램의 검증을 위해 일반 철근콘크리트기둥, CFFT기둥, 고강도콘크리트와 PS긴장재를 도입한 CFFT기둥을 설계한 결과, 매우 실용적이며 타당한 설계가 수행될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

This study presents the optimal grouping technique of columns which groups together columns of similar shortening trends to improve the efficiency of column shortening compensation. Here, Kohonen's self-organizing feature map which can classify patterns of input data by itself with unsupervised learning was used as the optimal grouping algorithm. The Kohonen network applied in this study is composed of two input neurons and variable output neurons, here the number of output neuron is equal to the column groups to be classified. In input neurons the normalized mean and standard deviation of shortening of each columns are inputted and in the output neurons the classified column groups are presented. The applicability of the proposed algorithm was evaluated by applying it to the two buildings where column shortening analyses had already been performed. The proposed algorithm was able to classify columns with similar shortening trends as one group, and from this we were able to ascertain the field-applicability of the proposed algorithm as the optimal grouping of column shortening.

The necessity of a high-rise building in big cities gave a new problem to structural engineers. The shortening effect of vertical members needs special considerstion in the desigh and construction of high-rise buildings. The shortening of each column transfers load to nonstructural members such as partitions, cladding, and M/E systems which are not designed to carry gravity loads. Also, the slabs and beams will tilt due to the cumulative differential shortening of adjacent vertical members. The main purpose of estimating the total shortening of vertical structural members is to compensate the differential shortening between adjacent members. This paper presents the structural effect of differential shortening between in main structural members. Lateral earthquake load is applied to the 52 story concrete structure which has an initial vertical displacement due to the gravity load. Shortening amount for each vertical member was estimated using the computerized column shortening software. Comparison of stresses between the shortening corrected structure and the uncorrecated structure due to earthquake load was discussed.

According to the Korean Building Code (KBC), the validity of the application of 800MPa grade steel(HSA800) to composite column should be verified by experimental or analytical method. Thus, stub column tests for encased and filled composite members with HSA800 steel were conducted, and axial strength and the validity of design compressive strength equations in KBC were evaluated. The test results show that the equation of the compressive strength of encased composite column member in KBC should be modified in order to use HSA800 steel without any reduction of specified minimum yield strength. For this purpose, it is suggested that the interval of hoop should be narrowed and the effective concrete area should be used. The equation of the compressive strength of filled composite column member in KBC is applicable to filled composite column with HSA800 steel without any modification.

The reinforced concrete flat plate system provides architectural flexibility, clear space, reduced building height, simple formwork, which consequently enhance constructibility. One of the serious problem in the flat plate system is brittle punching shear failure due to transfer of shear force and unbalanced moments in column-slab connection. Since the use of high strength concrete recently has become in practice for reinforced concrete structures, it is highly desired to establish the structural design method for flat plate construction using high strength concrete. In this paper, interior column-slab connection constructed with high strength concrete were tested under lateral and gravity loads to evaluate their strength and behavior. The test parameters were slab reinforcement ratio and the gravity load levels.

When impacts by falling objects are applied to the structures, vertical resisting member(column or column group) results in progressive collapse. By knowing clearly load-deformation relationship of a structural frame, to prevent progressive collapse by absorbing potential energy of falling objects though column groups are lost by the impact of falling object accidently. If residual strength in vertical direction exceeds vertical load, which the sum of the weight of falling objects and usual supportive vertical load as the result of absorbing released location energy, it does not result in progressive collapse. On the other hand, in case when weight of falling objects is included in usual supportive vertical load. In this paper, 1-story 4-spans model is analyzed by non-linear FEM and to examine the level of deterioration, limit analysis of 1-story 4-spans plane frame was carried out.

Accurate prediction of time-dependent column shortening is essential for tall buildings in both strength and serviceability aspects. The uncertainty associated with assumed values for concrete properties such as strength, creep, and shrinkage coefficients should be considered for the prediction of time-dependent column shortening of tall concrete buildings. In this study, the column shortenings of 41-story tall concrete building are predicted using monte carlo simulation technique based on the probabilistic analysis. The probabilistic column shortenings considering confidence intervals are compared with the actual column shortenings by field measurement. The time-dependent strains measured at tall bearing wall building were generally lower than the predicted strains and the measured values fell within a range ${\mu}-1.64$, confidence level 90%.

In this study, the effects of the inelastic shear behavior of beam-column joint and the vertical distribution of lateral load are evaluated considering higher modes on the response of RC OMRF using the pushover analysis. A structure used for the analysis was a 5-story structure located at site class SB and seismic design category C, which was designed in accordance with KBC2009. Bending moment-curvature relationship for beam and column was identified using fiber model. Also, bending moment-rotation relationship for beam-column joint was calculated using simple and unified joint shear behavior model and moment equilibrium relationship for the joint. The results of pushover analysis showed that, although the rigid beam-column joint overestimated the stiffness and strength of the structure, the inelastic shear behavior of beam-column joint could be neglected in the process of structural design since the average response modification factor satisfied the criteria of KBC2009 for RC OMRF independent to inelastic behavior of joint.

Recently, to improve the load carrying capacity of column structures such as bridge piers, application to concrete-filled steel tube(CFT) type columns are increased more and more. To design the concrete-filled steel tube(CFT) columns in accuracy, influence of material and geometry properties and aspect ratio on ultimate strength of the concrete-filled steel tube column is investigated by experimental researches. In this investigation, the ultimate strength distribution of the concrete-filled steel tube column in accordance with diameter-thickness ratio(D/t) and steel-concrete area ratio(As/Ac) are clarified by the compressive tests. Futhermore, parametric experimental investigation on concrete target strength is performed. It was known from experimental observation that ultimate strength of concrete-filled steel tube column under axial compressive loading more depends on section properties of steel tube rather than concrete strength.
