Steel-Concrete Composite Deck with I-beam welded is lighter and easier to construct than conventional in situ reinforced concrete slabs due to the I-beam embedded in the corrugated slab. For the calculation of effective flexural rigidity of conventional reinforced concrete structures, methods suggested in Design Standard for Roads and Bridges and ACI have been used. In this paper, the calculation methods were applied to steel-concrete composite deck with I-beam welded and then results of the steel-concrete composite deck were compared with those of reinforced concrete slabs. In addition, applicability of the methods to steel-concrete composite deck with I-beam welded was estimated. In order to compare the effective flexural rigidity, flexural experiments were conducted. Fifteen slabs were built and the variables considered in the experiments were studs, length of the slab, shape of the section and connecting methods.

This study numerically investigates buckling behavior of press braked steel plates with a free edge that consists of the upper flange of U-shaped box girder. Since the press-braked plates include a rounded edge, the effective width to thickness ratio of the press-braked upper flange is obscure to determine the nominal compressive strength. This study performed 3D finite element analyses to evaluate an equivalent effective width of cold-formed plate with a free edge. Through the parametric numerical analyses, the elastic buckling stresses of the rounded corner plates were compared with those of general flat plates and then, the equivalent effective width has been estimated. A comparative study with Euler buckling formula speculated in the domestic design specifications has been conducted.

The paper is presented experimental study results on bond stress between profiled steel and concrete in Profiled SPC(Profiled Steel Plate Concrete) rectangular steel tubes through an experimental program in which 13 pull-out specimens were tested. Advantages and class of composite members and current problems of construction work are noted, past research of PSSC is described. An experimental study is described and evaluated. The bond capacity is interrelated with slip at the steel concrete interface. The factors influencing the mechanism of bond stress transfer were the cross section shape, length/diameter, diameter/thickness and environmental parameters (temperature, moisture). The results of experimental program indicated that the force transfer could be characterized into two regions The first region was governed by bond with no relative slip between the profiled steel and concrete. The second region occurs after the chemical debonding. Bond stress transfer in this region was governed by frictional resistance between profiled steel and concrete and cross section shapes. The important factors influencing the magnitude of frictional resistance are the profiled steel shapes, length/diameter and environmental parameters. (temperature, moisture)

In this study, the effect of corrugation angle on thermal performance of corrugated plate is numerically investigated with an aim to develop humidifying element. Numerical analysis was conducted for a range of corrugation angle (from $0^{\circ}/0^{\circ}$ to $60^{\circ}/60^{\circ}$ for equal angle and from $15^{\circ}/0^{\circ}$ to $15^{\circ}/60^{\circ}$ for unequal angle). Results revealed that both j and f factor increased as corrugation angle increased. Especially, f factor increased significantly at high corrugation angles. j and f factors of unequal angle plates and those of equal angle (obtained by averaging unequal angles) plates were approximately the same. The largest $j/f^{1/3}$, which implies the largest heat transfer rate per consumed power, was obtained at $15^{\circ}/15^{\circ}$. Existing correlations under- or over-predicted the present numerical results.

This paper deals with the fatigue behavior and strength of a new-type of steel-concrete composite bridge deck. The new-type composite bridge deck consists of corrugated steel plate, welded T-beams, stud-type shear connectors and reinforced concrete filler. A total of eight composite bridge deck specimens were fabricated, the fatigue tests were conducted under four-point bending test with three different stress ranges in constant amplitude. According to the test results, the fatigue crack generated at the welding part of the corrugated steel plate, progressed down to the bottom of the steel plate and encountered the crack, which came out from the opposite side at the same position. After the two cracks were connected at the bottom of the steel plate, the lower flange was cut off and the fatigue crack developed up to the T-beam. And the displacements and strains of fatigue test specimens were increasing with cyclic loading number, these were changed sharply at the fatigue failure. The fatigue results are compared with the design S-N curves specified in the Korea Highway Bridge Design Specifications and data in NCHRP 102 and NCHRP 147 report. The new-type composite bridge deck has a stress category of C, which means that new-type composite bridge deck can be designed by the current fatigue design specifications provided for steel members.

The proposed directional pencil beam antenna consists of a waveguide feeder with bended elliptical conductor plate feed and a parabolic curved reflector. Two rectangular apertures located at the broad wall near the end of the feed waveguide inserted from behind the reflector are located at the focus of the reflector and emit electromagnetic energy with bended elliptical conductor plate. This plate is designed to reflect electromagnetic energy primarily and to face the main reflector. The two rectangular apertures located at the waveguide end have inwardly protruding tabs for impedance matching of the antenna system, the shape of the tabs is a truncated oval. The proposed parabolic reflector antenna has a diameter of 400 mm and a focal length of 134.23 mm. The antenna gain is 33.68 dBi at the center frequency of 16.5 GHz, the beam width is $3.3^{\circ}$ and the reflection loss is -15 dB. Using the HFSS-IE, simulation results are performed to validate the proposed antennas.

Bridge deck is directly influenced by environment and vehicle load, it is easily damaged so that it requires an appropriate repair and retrofit. Therefore, developing a bridge deck with high durability is necessary in order to minimize the maintenance of bridge deck and use it to its design life. In this study, static test was carried out to evaluate a fatigue capacity of steel-concrete composite deck, which was newly developed by supplementing problems of existing reinforced concrete deck. Based on results from the static test, fatigue load was decided, and fatigue test was conducted under the constant amplitude repeated load. From the fatigue tests, the S-N curve regarding principle structural details of composite deck was made, and characteristics of fatigue behavior was estimated by comparing and evaluating it with fatigue design criteria. In addition, fatigue design guideline was presented. As a result, it is found that each structural details of composite deck proposed by this study, such as upper flange of corrugated steel plate and middle section of it, shear connector and lower flange of corrugated steel plate, is satisfying the fatigue strength.

This paper presents the results of push-out test conducted for the perfobond rib shear connectors welded onto steel-concrete composite deck. Push-out test specimen consists of profiled steel sheeting, perfobond rib, reinforcement, and concrete. To provide longitudinal shear resistance between the profiled sheeting and the concrete, perfobond rib with a number of holes was used. The parameters considered in the design of perfobond rib were the spacing and location of holes, and effect of reinforcing bars placed in the holes. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed system, twelve specimens were fabricated and tested. Although the scope of test was limited in nature, the results of test have shown that the perfobond ribs can be effectively used for shear connection in the steel-concrete composite decks.
