Recently, many bridges become not only functionally obsolete of bridge dick due to inadequate width but also structurally deficient of substructure due to erosion. In these case widening is almost always more economical than complete replacement, and therefore there is a need to make available the results of research and field experience pertaining to the widening of bridge substructure. But, an experimental study for the guarantee of unification between existing and new substructure with post-installed concrete set anchor is so insufficient that the development of post-installed concrete set anchor system for the unification should be settled promptly. The objective is to investigate the effects of anchor embedment depth and concrete strength on pullout characteristics of post-installed concrete set anchor embedded in plain concrete. The effects of embedment depth variable is depending on concrete strength as strong as concrete strength is pullout load is high. Regardless of concrete strength, embedment depth that less than 6 times appeared concrete failure mode but for embedment depth that over 8 times concrete strength has no affection on failure mode.

Due to mismatch of thermal expansion coefficients between aluminum sheet and glass/epoxy sheet, thermal residual stresses generally appear in the FML. These stresses will affect the yield and fatigue strength of the FML. The numerically determined residual stresses in the Fiber-Metal-Laminates(FML) have been compared to the residual stresses measured from the curvature and tensile test methods. These two experimental methods have been developed for assessing the influence of residual stress in FML. Post-stretching process has been applied to remove the thermal residual stress and reverse the stress distribution. After post-stretching process, the residual stress has been measured from experiments. The results obtained show that analytical and experimental data are well agreed. The thermal residual stress can be removed by post-stretching process and it will increase the yield strength of FML.

This study presents post-installed anchors whose heads and extension sleeves are improved. The optimal lengths of the extension sleeves and headers were analytically determined by simulations. As a result of analysis using Finite element method (FEM), 9.0mm and 3.0mm were determined as the optimal lengths of sleeves and headers respectively. In pull-out tests using the improved post-installed anchors, all specimens satisfied the coefficient of variation of 15%. Comparing the pull-out strengths of existing anchors and the improved anchors, it was increased by 1.25 times for anchors embedded with a depth of 50mm, and 1.54 times for 70mm. In the cases of high-strength concrete, the strengths were increased by 1.28 and 1.55 times for 50mm and 70mm respectively. Moreover, as a result of shear tests, the improved anchors perform the greater strength of 1.38 times than the existing anchors.

This study examined the uplift bearing capacity of spiral steel pegs according to the degree of soil compaction and embedded depth in a small-scaled lab test. As a result, their uplift bearing capacity increased according to the degree of soil compaction and embedded depth. The uplift bearing capacity under the ground condition of 85% compaction rate especially recorded 48.9 kgf, 57.9 kgf, 86.2 kgf and 116.6 kgf at embedded depth of 25 cm, 30 cm, 35 cm and 40 cm, respectively, being considerably higher than under other ground conditions. There were huge differences in the uplift bearing capacity of spiral steel pegs according to the compaction conditions of ground. Their maximum uplift bearing capacity was 116.6 kgf under the ground condition of 85% compaction rate and at embedded depth of 40 cm, and it is very high considering the data of spiral steel pegs. It is thus estimated that wind damage can be effectively reduced by careful maintenance of ground condition surrounding spiral steel pegs. In addition, spiral steel pegs will be able to make a contribution to greenhouse structural stability if proper installation methods are provided including the number and interval according to the types of greenhouse as well as fixation of plastic film. The findings of the study indicate that the optimal effects of spiral steel pegs for greenhouse can be achieved at embedded depth of more than 35cm and compaction degree of more than 85%. The relative density of the model ground in the test was 67% at compaction rate of 85%.

The apparatus for measuring the static withdrawal resistance of nail is the AUTOGROPH S-500 static testing machine. The nails were 0.25 - 0.26 cm in diameter, 4.9-5.1cm in length, and were driven into wood for a depth of 3.0 cm. The physical properties of wood specimens are shown in table 1. Some data obtained in this experiment are as follows 1) The effects of the direction of driving and the time after driving upon static withdrawal resistance are shown in fig. 2-3. 2) The relations between static withdrawal resistance are moisture content of wood are characterized by nearly straight line as shown in fig. 4-5. The empirical formula areas follows: Y = -0.074 x + 12.73 (Pinus koraiensis Sieb & Zucc. - radial) Y = -0.073 x + 7.54 (Pinus koraiensis Sieb & Zucc. - longitudinal) Y = -0.061 x + 12.80 (Larix leptolesis Gord. - tangential) Y = -0.081 x + 7.61 (Larix leptolepsis Gord. - longitudinal) Where Y is the static withdrawal resistance ($kg{\cdot}cm$) and x is the moisture content(%).

Recently, many bridges become not only functionally obsolete of bridge deck due to inadequate width but also structurally deficient of substructure due to erosion. In these cases, widening is almost always more economical than complete replacement, and therefore there is a need to make available the results of research and field experience pertaining to the widening of bridge substructure. But, an experimental study for the guarantee of unification between existing and new substructure with adhesive anchor is so insufficient that the development of adhesive anchor system for the unification should be settled promptly. The purpose of the present study is to explore pull out and shear characteristics of adhesive anchor system. For this purpose, several series of concrete specimens have been tested. Major test variables were the bonded length, anchor diameter and anchor slope. The pull out strength, bond stress and shear strength of adhesive faces were measured for the specimens. The present study indicates that the pull out strength increased with more bonded length and more anchor diameter, and that the bond stress decreased with more bonded length and more anchor diameter. The pull out strength and the bond stress increases with more anchor slope and it is considered that the slope of $5^{\circ}$ was more efficient. From the shear tests, it is supposed that anchor diameters more than D19 was proper to the adhesive anchor. Finally, it is expected that both experimental data in these tests and further study including mock-up tests will contribute to the establishment of the unification between existing and new substructure with adhesive anchor.

Precast concrete segment arch system has an economic and construct ability that combined with advantage of precast concrete and arch behavior. A precast concrete segment arch system with outrigger is consisted of segmented precast panels, a steel outrigger rib, and V-strip to connect precast panels with a steel outrigger rib and cast-in-place anchors in precast panels to connect V-strip should have sufficient pull-out capacity to form its arch shape by site lifting for assembled precast panels and outriggers. However, it is difficult to secure its embedment depth due to the relatively shallow thickness of precast panel. It can be also occurred that flexure deformation of precast panels caused by its pull-out behaviors. In this study, pull-out capacity of cast-in-place anchor was examined for construction of precast concrete segment arch system with outriggers. Therefore, a total of 24 precast panel specimens were fabricated to examine pull-out capacities of cast-in-place anchor in precast panels, and installation depth of anchors, diameter of anchors and wire mesh effects for the precast panel were examined. From this pull-out tests, its pull-out capacities and failure modes were evaluated and the type of the cast-in-place anchor applicable to the precast concrete segment panel arch system with outriggers was determined from comparison of the design specification values.

In the multi-stage shape drawing process, the most important aspect for the economy is the correct design of the various drawing stage. For most of the products commonly available round or square materials can be used as initial material. However, special products should be pre-rolled. This study proposes a process design method of multi-stage shape drawing process for producing cross roller guide. Firstly, a standard classification of shape drawing process is suggested based on the requirement of pre-rolling process. And a design method is proposed to design the intermediate die shape. The process design method is applied to design the multi-stage shape drawing process for producing cross roller guide. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed design method is verified by FE-analysis and shape drawing experiment.
