In this study, pull-out tests were performed to investigate the effects of stirrup spacing, rebar diameter, and corrosion rate on bond strength of deformed bars in reinforced concrete. Twelve pull-out specimens with different stirrup spacing, rebar diameter, and corrosion rate were prepared following the RILEM RC6 guidelines. The test results showed that the bond strength of specimens with stirrups increased when the corrosion rate was less than 3%, whereas it decreased when the corrosion rate was more than 3%. On the other hand, the bond strength of specimens without stirrups decreased as the corrosion rate increased. The effect of rebar diameter was less significant compared to those of stirrup spacing and corrosion rate. A bond strength model for pull-out specimens was proposed considering stirrup ratio and corrosion rate, and the model showed the lowest error among the previous models.

The main objective of this study is to investigate the behavior of NSC and HSC beams with stirrups. Main variables were the concrete compressive strength and amount of vertical stirrups. A total of 24 beams was tested; 4 beams without web reinforcement and 20 beams with web reinforcement in the form of vertical stirrups. Main variables were 2 different compressive strengths of concrete of 26.9MPa and 63.5MPa, 5 different spacing of stirrups of 200, 150, 120, 100 and 90mm. Therefore, the results were compared with the strengths predicted by the equations of ACI code 318-99 and other researchers. The shear reinforcement ratio, where the test beams were failed simultaneously under flexure and shear, were $0.63{\rho}_{vmax}$ for NSC beams and $0.53{\rho}_{vmax}$ for HSC beams, respectively. The ACI code equation was found to be very conservative for shear design.

일반적으로 스터럽이 없는 철근콘크리트 보의 전단강도는 콘크리트 압축강도, 주철근비, 전단스팬비 및 보 유효깊이에 좌우된다는 것이 많은 연구를 통하여 밝혀지고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 고강도 콘크리트를 사용한 철근콘크리트 보의 거동 및 전단강도 특성을 분석하기 위하여 주철근비, 전단스팬비 및 보 유효깊이를 변수로 두고 총 22개의 단철근 보 실험체를 제작하여 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과는 ACI규준식, Zsutty식 및 Bazant & Kim식의 예측값들과 함께 비교, 분석되었는데, ACI 규준식은 주철근비 및 전단스팬비의 효과를 과소평가할 뿐만 아니라 유효깊이가 915mm인 큰 보의 경우 안전측이 아니어서 이에 대한 고려가 필요할 것으로 판단된다. Zsutty식은 주철근비의 효과를 적절하게 평가하는 것으로 나타났으며, Bazant & Kim 식은 유효깊이 증가에 따른 전단강도 감소 경향을 잘 예측하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 다른 연구자들의 실험치와 비교, 분석해본 결과 주철근비 및 전단스팬비의 효과는 콘크리트 압축강도 수준에 따라 큰 변화가 없는 것으로 판단된다.

KCI 2012 and ACI318-11 contains development length provisions for the use of headed deformed bars in tension and does not allow their tension lap splices. In ACI318-11, the confinement factor, such as transverse reinforcement factor, is not used to calculate the development length of headed bars. The purpose of this experimental study is to evaluate the effect of confinement details to the lap splice performance of headed deformed reinforcing bars in grade SD400 and SD500. The confinement details are stirrups and tie-down bars in lap zone. Test results showed that specimens with only stirrups had the brittle failure and could not increase lap strengths, and that specimens with composite confinements by stirrups and tie-down bars had the flexural strengths over than nominal flexural strengths. Stirrups with tie-down bars can have an effect on improvement in lap splice of headed bars in grade SD400 and SD500.

This paper focuses on the experimental study for investigating the performance for lap splice of hooked or headed reinforcement in beam with different depths. In the experiment, seven specimens, with its variables as the lap length of headed or hooked bar, the existence of stirrups, etc., was manufactured. Bending test was conducted. Lap strengths by test were compared with the theoretical model based on KCI2012. The result showed that the cracks at failure mode occurred along the axial direction to a headed bar. The initial stiffness and the stiffness after initial crack were similar for all specimens. For HS series specimens without stirrups, a 25% increase in lap length was increased 11.8~18.1% maximum strengths. For HH series specimens without stirrups, a increase in lap length did not affect the maximum strengths because of the pryout failure of headed bar. For HS series specimens, the theoretical lap strengths based on KCI2012 considering the B grade lap and the reduction factor for stirrup were evaluated. They are smaller than the test strengths and can ensure the safety in terms of strength capacity. For HH series specimens, the stirrups in the lap zone are needed to prevent the pryout behaviour of headed bar.

Shear failure of reinforced concrete (RC) beams is serious problem due to sudden brittle failure and many experimental results proved that size effect in shear strength of RC beams is an important feature of reinforced concrete members. As the sizes of RC beams very large, experiments sometimes become very difficult so that empirical design formula or the experimental data on shear strength of RC beams could not be obtained. Then the numerical analyses for size effect on shear strength of RC beams become very important. In this study, finite-element technique of reinforced concrete is employed of shear analysis of RC beams without web reinforcement and the size effects in shear strength are numerically analyzed. The influencing factors to the size effect in the shear strength of RC beams are extensively analyzed and compared with those by major shear strength equations including several standard specifications.

Four types of experiments were performed to check the similitude of member behavior between prototype and 1 /10 scale models : (1) Test of slender columns with P-$\Delta$ effect, (2) Test of short columns with and without confinement steel, (3) Test of simple beams without stirrups, and (4) 'T-beam test. Based on the results of experiments, the conclusions were made as follows : (1) The P-$\Delta$ effect of slender columns can be almost exactly represented by 1/10 scale model. (2) The effect of confinement on short columns by the hoop steel can be also roughly simulated by 1/10 scale model. (3) The failure modes of simple beams without stirrups are brittle shear failures in prototype whereas those of 1/10 scale models are the ductile yielding of tension steel followed by large diagonal tension cracking and compressive concrete failure. (4) The behaviors of prototype and 1/10 scale model in T-beams appear very similar.

It is well known that axial tension decreases the shear strength of RC & PSC beams without transverse reinforcement, and axial compression increases the shear resistance. What is perhaps not very well understood is how much the shear resistance capacity is influenced by axial load. RC beams without shear reinforcement subjected to large axial compression and shear may fail in a very brittle manner at the instance of first diagonal cracking. As a result, a conservative approach should be used for such members. According to the ACI Code, the shear strength in web is calculated by effect of axial force and the vertical force in the stirrups calculated by $45^{\circ}$ truss model. This study was performed to examine the effect of axial force in reinforced concrete beams by nonlinear FEM program (ATENA-2D).

There is mounting recognition among concrete researchers that fiber reinforcement makes up for the inherent weakness in resisting tensile force of structural concrete. In practice of application of the fiber to concrete, however, several problems still remain to solve for assuring a uniform mix quality. The Kagome truss that is widely used in mechanical engineering field seems to be a good replacement for the steel fiber. This paper presents the test results of a pilot study for the concrete members reinforced by Kagome truss which is a periodic cellular metal of wire-woven. Three types of Kagome truss bulk were prefabricated and filled with normal concrete to make small-scaled test beams. The beams reinforced by a normal steel stirrups were also tested up to failure to compare the behavioral results. From the results obtained, it is appeared that comparing with beams reinforced by normal stirrups, the beams reinforced by Kagome truss showed better performance in load carrying capacity as well as ductility. Therefore, the Kagome truss is proved to be a good web shear reinforcing material.

A slab-column connection is susceptible to brittle punching shear failure, which may result in the necessity of shear reinforcement. In the present study, to investigate the earthquake resistance of newly developed lattice shear reinforcement, experimental study was performed for interior slab-column connections subjected to cyclic loading. For comparison, specimens with existing shear reinforcement method such as stud rail, shear band and stirrup were also tested. The test result showed that the structural capacity of the lattice shear reinforcement was superior to those of the existing methods and was greater than the code-specified strength. On the other hand, the existing methods did not significantly improve the shear strength of the specimens. The shear strengths of the existing methods were much less than the code-specified shear strength.
