This paper presents experimental studies on investigating the seismic retrofit performance of reinforced concrete circular columns with poor lap-splice details using GFRP wrapping. Five full-scale model columns have been tested. The prototype structure is an existing circular reinforced concrete bridge piers designed following the pre-seismic codes and constructed in South Korea in 1979. The as-built column will be expected to suffer brittle failure due to the bond failure of lap-spliced longitudinal reinforcement. The retrofitted columns using GFRP wrapping showed significant improvement of seismic performance. However, the predicted flexural failure mode was not achieved and the longitudinal bars were not yielded. Failure modes of the retrofitted columns are considered to be the gradually delayed bond slip in lap-spliced longitudinal reinforcement. Suggested retrofit design methods using GFRP were validated experimentally.

To determine detection capabilities of locating steel bars and delamination inside concrete, commercially available nondestructive testing (NDT) equipments have been tested. The equipments include two radar systems and two electromagnetic method systems. The inclusions are a 19 mm diameter steel bar and 50 mm thick delamination embedded at different cover depths from the surface of concrete specimens. For the steel bar, attempts were made to determine the size of the bars by changing the diameter of the bars. A sample result of measuring horizontal spacing between doubly reinforced bars is presented in this paper. Experimental results on various measurement cases are discussed. Application of numerical modeling technique for the simulation of radar measurements and improved output display of radar measurements are also presented.

본논문에서는 강섬유 철근 콘크리트 보(SFRC) 의 감쇄 거동에 대해서 실험적인 방법과 수치 해석적인 방법으로 연구를 수행하였다 SFRC는 보다 향상된 에너지 소산능력으로 일반 철근 콘크리트보에 비하여 뛰어난 감쇄 거동을 보인다. 감쇄거동은 종방향 철근비강섬유의 형태와 부피 콘크리트 강도 응력 수준등에 의해 영향을 받는다 SFRC보의 감쇠는 다양한 수준의 균열상태에서의 동적실험 데이터를 통하여 평가하였다 곡률과 감쇠의 관계식에 기초한 유한요소 프로그램(TICAL) 이 개발되었으며 0.44%의 강섬유를 혼입한 보의 경우 5-35%의 감쇠비 증가를 보였다

근래 들어 철근 콘크리트에 있어서의 철근 부식이 관심의 대상이 되고 있는데 그 이유는 이 현상이 실제 구조물에서 광범위하게 발생함이 확인되었고 이로 이한 보수비용이 급증하였기 때문이다. 철근의 부식이 처음 거론된 것은 해양구조물과 내화학성 구조물에서였고 최근 들어서는 교량상판, 주차공간 등 염기에 노출되어 철근 부식이 우려되는 각 종의 구조물에 광범위하레 그 대책이 연구되기에 이르렀다. 이와 같은 철근부식의 제어방법으로는 첫째로 콘크리트의 수밀화를 들 수 있고 다음으로 콘크리트의 표면을 처리하거나 피복두께를 늘리는 방법이 있다. 마지막으로 철근 자체에 방청성능을 직접 부여하여 철근의 부식을 방지하고자 하는 방법을 들 수 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 대책중에서 가장 적극적인 방법에 속하는 에폭시 도포 철근의 기본적인 방청성능을 고찰하기 위해 수행되었다.

The purpose of this paper is to induce the ductile behavior of the UHPFRC member after the peak load by using the bundle of longitudinal reinforcing bar as a substitute for steel fiber. Experiments on the flexural behavior of the Ultra High Performance Concrete rectangular beam with the combination of the steel fiber and longitudinal reinforcing bar were carried out. The volume fractions of steel fiber are 0%, 0.7%, 1%, 1.5%, 2% and the reinforcement ratios of longitudinal reinforcing bar which induce the ductile behavior are 0.0036, 0.016, 0.028 and 0.036. 15 UHPC beams were made with the combination of these test factors. Not only steel fiber but also bundle of longitudinal reinforcing bar has the effect to induce ductile behavior of UHPC structural member. The combination of 0.7% volume fraction of steel fiber and 0.028 reinforcement ratio showed the most economic combination. The relationship of load-deflection, strain variation of the concrete and the crack pattern indicate the usefulness of the bundle of the longitudinal bar which has small diameter with close arrangement each other.

In this paper, it has been studied about the CRCO to maintain or rehabilitate the aged JCP. The CRCO and JCO was constructed at useless section of Seo-Hae-Ahn express highway in South Korea. The performance evaluation was conducted. Especially, it was focused on the roll of longitudinal reinforced steels inserted into the CRCO. On crack survey results from field construction section, the reflection cracks at joint of the existing pavement occurred in CRCO. However, due to the constraints of longitudinal reinforced steels, crack width was small. Total crack length and quantity in the CRCO more than that in the JCO. And crack spacing in the CRCO was narrower than it in the CRCP. Through the bonding strength test results, if the cold milling and cleaning as well as surface treatment is applied, there will be no debonding problem at interlayer in the early age. From analysis of the horizontal behavior at the joint, the longitudinal reinforced steels constrained crack width which became wider than initial state over time. Also, that steel in the CRCO reduced the horizontal movement due to temperature variation(4 times than that in the JCO). But, if interface is debonded, the roll decreased. Vertical VWG data showed that CRCO did not occur debonding problem at steel location, but there was some problem in JCO. It was confirmed by field coring. The tensile strain appeared in the CRCO, But the compressive strain occurred in the JCO in early age. Through the FWD test result, deflection in the CRCO was less than that in the JCO. And K value in the CRCO was greater than it in the JCO.

This paper represents the permeability of chloride ions and the corrosion performance in the concrete blended with granulate blast furnace slag exposed to chloride environment. An ordinary cement (type I ) and sulfate resisting cement(type V) were used for the experiment. The two cements were combined with $0\%$, $25 \%$, $40\%$, and $55\%$ of the granulated blast furnace slag. The accelerated permeability tests of chloride ions were performed in accordance with ASTM C1202, and the accelerated corrosion tests of steel were carried out by using the method of immersion/drying cycles. After water curing 28 days, 56 days and 91 days, these tests were conducted until 30 cycles. In every cycle, test specimens were wetted in $3\%$ NaCl solution for three days and dried again in $60^{\circ}C$ air for four days. As an experimental results, the diffusion coefficient of chloride ions of the ordinary cement Concrete Combined granulated blast furnace slag was much lower than that of non granulated blast furnace slag concrete. Moreover, the diffusion coefficient of chloride ions of sulfate resisting cement concrete was higher than that of ordinary cement concrete. On the basis of the results of accelerated corrosion tests, corrosion resistance of the concrete mixed with granulated blast furnace slag shows good to corrosion resistance, however, the concrete with sulfate resisting cement shows bad to corrosion resistance.

The purpose of this study is to induce the ductile behavior of the Ultra High Perfomance Concrete Reinforced I beam by substituting the part of steel fiber for bundle of reinforcing bars. Experiment of flexural behavior of the Ultra High Performance Concrete I shaped beam with the combination of the steel fiber and bundle of reinforcement bars was carried out. The volume fractions of steel fiber are 0%, 0.7%, 1%, 2%. The bundle of reinforcing bars and prestressing wire are used to restrain the concrete in compression zone. Length of bundle of reinforcing bar and prestressing wire is the one of test factors. The 9 Reinforced UHPC I shaped beam were made with these test factors. Not only steel fiber but also bundle of longitudinal reinforcing bar has effect to induce the ductile behavior of Reinforced UHPC I beam. The combination of 0.7% or 1.0% steel fiber and bundle of reinforcing bar showed the effective ductile behavior of I beam. The relationship of load-deflection and the crack pattern indicate the usefulness of the bundle of the longitudinal bar which has small diameter with close arrangement each other.
