이 논문은 직사각형 단면을 갖는 철근콘크리트 보에서 휨전단균열(Flexural-Shear Crack)이 원인을 규명하기 위해 모두 16개의 보를 실험한 결과를 기술한 것이다. 실험에 이용된 콘크리트보는 전단균열에 영향을 준다고 생각되는 몇 가지 요소를 인위적으로 소거 도는 고립되도록 특수하게 제작된 것이다. 이러한 특수보의 실험결과를 같은 재원을 갖는 보통의 정상보의 결과와 직접 비교하여서 그 차이를 분석함으로써 휨전단 균열의 발생원인을 규명하였다. 그 결과, 일반적인 콘크리트보에서의 휨전단균열 발생은 철근과 콘크리트의 경계면의 부착현상과 매우 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 발생된 휨전단균열의 안정성은 주철근을 따라 발생되는 수평균열의 크기에 직접적인 영향을 받고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 나타난 몇 가지 사실은 현재 사용중인 전단설계규준의 근본을 이루는 전단 위험단면개념과는 상반되는 것도 있었다. 실험에서 알아낸 사실을 근거로 전단파괴기구에 대한 새로운 가설을 제안하였다. 이 새 가설은 지금까지 잘 설명되지 않은 휨전단균열의 발생과 진행에 대한 원인 및 과정을 상당히 잘 설명해주고 있다고 생각된다.

To investigate the flexural behavior of RC beams strengthened with glass fiber sheets, 1 control beam and 8 strengthened beams (4 NU-beams without U-shaped band and 4 U-beams with U-shaped band) are tested. The variables of experiment are composed of the number of glass fiber sheets and the existence of U-shaped band, etc. The maximum load was increased by 48% and 34%, and the flexural rigidity by 920% and 880% for NU-beam and U-beam, respectively, compared with those of the control beam. The ductility ratios were 1.43$\sim$2.60 for NU-beam and U-beam. The experimental results showed that the strengthening system with U-shaped band controls the premature debonding and provides a more ductile failure mode than the strengthening system without U-shaped band. It can be found from the load-deflection curves that as the number of fiber sheets is increased, the maximum strength and the flexural rigidity is increased. The experimental results are compared with the analytical results of nonlinear flexural behaviors for strengthened RC beam. The experimental and analytical results were well agreed.

The purpose of this study is to analyse and compare experimentally flexural behavior of RC beams strengthened with CFRP plates by different methods, and finally suggest the evaluation equations of flexural capacity of RC beams with the aim of application of prestressed CFRP strengthening. The experimental parameters are compressive strength, reinforcement ratio, prestressing level and strengthening methods. The non-prestressed specimens failed on account of separation of the plates from the beams due to premature de-bonding, while most of the prestressed specimens failed due to CFRP plate fracture. The evaluation equations of flexural capacity of RC beams is suggested and these equations have a good reliability in predicting flexural strength of RC beams.

This paper presents experimental and analytical results on flexural behavior of flexural members made of SIFCON. Twelve SIFCON beams were subjected to bending tests and their flexural behavior was evaluated. Experimental variables included steel fiber type, presence of tensile reinforcement, and height of section. The specimens using Type-B steel fibers, which had better pullout resistance than Type-A steel fibers, showed flexural failure behavior without shear failure. The aspect ratio of steel fiber had a great influence on the behavior of SIFCON beams without tensile steel, however the effect on the behavior of SIFCON beams was negligible. In addition, the flexural strength equation for SIFCON was proposed in the study. The mean and standard deviation of the ratios of the predicted value to the experimental value are 1.02 and 0.04, respectively. Therefore, the proposed flexural strength equation can be useful for the design and performance evaluation of SIFCON beam.

To investigate the flexural behavior of RC beams strengthened with carbon fiber sheets, 1 control beam and 8 strengthened beams(4 NU-beams without U-shaped band and 4 U-beams with U-shaped band) are tested. The variables of experiment are composed of the number of carbon fiber sheets and the existence of U-shaped band, etc. The experimental results showed that the strengthening system with U-shaped band controls the premature debonding and provides a more ductile failure mode than the strengthening system without U-shaped band. It can be found from the load-deflection curves that as the number of fiber sheets is increased, the maximum strength and the flexural rigidity is increased. The experimental results are compared with the analytical results of nonlinear flexural behaviors for strengthened RC beam. The proposed analytical method for strengthened beams is proved to be accurate by an experimental investigation of load-deflection curve, yield load, maximum load, and flexural rigidities in the pre- and post-yielding stages.

본 연구에서는 비선형 FEM 해석을 이용하여 PSC(Prestressed concrete)와 강으로 구성된 혼합구조 보의 휨 실험을 검증하였다. 혼합구조 보의 거동에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 연결부는 Perfobond rib로 구성된 경우와 스터드로 구성된 경우를 고려하였다. 이종 재료가 접하는 경계면의 상호 작용에 대해 완전합성과 부분합성인 경우를 고려하여 혼합구조 보의 비선형 해석을 수행한 후 해석 결과와 실험 결과를 비교하였다. 하중-처짐관계, 파괴 형상 등의 해석 결과를 실험 결과와 비교한 결과, 부분합성을 고려한 모형이 실험 결과와 유사한 거동을 보였으며 또한 Perfobond rib를 갖는 실험체가 스터드를 갖는 실험체보다 해석 결과와 비교 시 안전측의 결과를 나타냈다.

Coating is one of the methods used to solve the problem of corrosion of reinforcement in concrete structures. There are few research reported in the literature regarding the effect of zinc-coating on flexural behavior compared to epoxy coating. The objective of this study was to determine whether zinc-coated rebar adversely affects flexural behavior. Concrete beams reinforced with black or zinc-coated steel were tested in flexure. The test variables included the presence of rebar surface coating with zinc, steel ratio used and cover depth. The study concentrated on comparing crack pattern, crack width, deflection and strain. The ultimate flexural capacity of beams reinforced with zinc-coated bars was not different from that of black steel reinforced beams. The results from deflection and crack width measurements were indicative of no significant variation for the different rebar surface conditions. In addition, it was found that load-strain curve of beam reinforced with zinc-coated steel was similar to that of beam reinforced with zinc-coated steel. Therefore, the test results indicated that the use of zinc-coated rebar had no adverse effect on flexural behavior compared to the use of black rebar.

대공간 구조물과 초고층 빌딩에 있어 건축물의 자중 감소에 대한 요구가 늘어나고 있으며 이에 대한 가장 효과적인 방법 중 하나는 경량 콘크리트를 사용하는 것이다. 본 연구는 최외단 철근의 순인장 변형률에 따른 경량콘크리트 보의 휨 거동 및 휨 성능을 평가하는 것에 그 목적이 있다. 크기와 형상이 동일한 보통중량 콘크리트 보 1개와 경량 콘크리트 보 4개의 총 5개 시험체를 제작하여 최외단 철근의 순인장 변형률을 변수로 실험을 수행하였으며 이를 통해 순인장 변형률에 따른 경량콘크리트 보의 강도와 연성의 변화를 분석하였다. 실험 결과 최외단 철근의 순인장 변형률이 증가할수록 시험체의 연성비는 증가하였으며 최대하중과 강성은 감소하였다. 특히 순인장 변형률 0.005 이상에서 연성지수 2 이상을 확보할 수 있었다.

An experimental study was performed to investigate flexural performance and bond characteristics of RC beams strengthened using ductile polyethylene terephthalate(PET) with low elastic modulus. Bond tests were planned and completed following CSA S806. Test variables were fiber type and fiber amount. Also, total of 8 RC beams was tested. Major test variables of the beam tests included section ductility(${\mu}=3.4$, 7.0), fiber type(CF, GF, PET) and amount of fiber strengthening. Moment-curvature analyses of the beam sections were also performed. In bond tests, the bond stress distribution as well as the maximum bond stress increased with increasing amount of PET. In case of 10 layers of PET, the effective bond length was 60 mm with the maximum and the average bond stress of 2.33 and 2.10 MPa, respectively. RC beam test results revealed that the moment capacity of the RC beams strengthened using PET 10 and 20 layers increased over the control beam with little reduction in ductility by fiber strengthening. All beams strengthened using PET resulted in ductile flexural failure without any sign of fiber debonding or fiber rupture. It was important to include the mechanical properties of adhesive in the moment-curvature analysis of PET-strengthened beam sections.

This paper concerns flexural strength of reinforced concrete beams containing recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) with compressive strength ranging from 31 to 38 MPa. The experimental parameters were replacement ratio of RCA and rebar ratio. Replacement ratio of RCA was 0, 30, 50 and 100%, and rebar ratio was 0.50, 0.79 and 1.14%. The RCA concrete beams were tested by using four-point bending test, and experimental results were discussed regarding crack and failure patterns, load-deflection relationship. Crack pattern of concrete beams with RCA was similar to that of concrete beams with natural coarse aggregate (NCA) but overall crack spacing of concrete beams with RCA was smaller than that of concrete beams with NCA. The crack width of RCA and NCA concrete beams was similar to each other. In addition, the test results of flexural strength were compared to the design code predictions. The design code predictions for flexural strength underestimated the experimental results. Therefore, the design code predictions for flexural strength of RCA concrete beams would offer conservative design.
