This study aims to present a more reasonable control value than the exiting one by comparing and analyzing control values and field instrumentation values of the whole excavation depth of the four case sites using geometric averaging as a statistical method. The range of the study is confined to three things: (1) the axial force of the braced excavation walls among a variety of items prescribed in the control values by stress deformation of walls and adjacent structures; (2) by approximation of the allowable and design value; (3) and by safety factor. As a res it is desirable to revise "(Long term allowable stress + Short term allowable stress)/2 ~ Short term allowable stress," presented in the present control values by stress deformation of walls and adjacent structures, to "(Long term allowable stress + Short term allowable stress)/5 ~ (Short term allowable stress)/3." The result also shows that since there is a difference of about 3.5%, it is not necessary to revise 70, 90, and 100 percent of LEVEL I, II, and III, prescribed in the control values by the allowable and design value approximation. In addition, modifying the control value by the safety factor, now 1.07, is unnecessary, although it varies little difference from the present value.

This research was carried out to investigate several mechanical characteristics of pre-stressed steel beams. The configuration of specimens used for this study were as follows; a cover plate having permissible fiber stress of 4,000 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ was welded at bottom having the allowable bending stress 2500 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ steel beam, the section ratios of pre-stressed steel beam and cover plate were 0.5 and 0.6. Adopted pre-stresses were 0%, 50%, and 100% of an allowable fiber stress of a steel beam. The results obtained from the study may be summarized as follows; 1. The elastic range of a beam was increased by the application of pre-stress to the beam, which leads to a lighter section. 2. The permissible moment capacity of a pre-stressed steel beam was greated than that of a steel beam without pre-stressing. 3. The equivalent allowable stress induced by adopting the different section ratio of pre-stressed beam to cover plate were figured out 4. The optimum value of section ratio of beam and cover plate was 0.3 to 0.4 in case of a 1.5m span composite beam, a combination of an allowable stress 2,500kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ steel beam and a permissible fiber stress 4,000 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ steel cover plate, was used. 5. The magnitude of the pre-stress was desirable to be same as the allowable stress of a steel beam. 6. It was concluded that if the construction techniques in the field are developed and improved, the practicing of pre-stress to the steel structure has a promising future.

This study presents the so-called Modified Allowable Stress Design (MASD) method for structural designs. The objective of this study is to qualitatively estimate uncertainties of tensile steel member's cross-sectional structural designs and find the optimal resulting design which can resist all uncertainty cases. The design parameters are assumed to be interval associated with lower and upper bounds and consequently interval methods are implemented to non-stochastically produce design results including the structural uncertainties. By seeking optimal uncertainty combinations among interval parameters, engineers can qualitatively describe uncertain design solutions which were not considered in conventional structural designs. Under the assumption that structures have basically uncertainties like displacement responses, the safety range of resulting designs is represented by lower and upper bounds depending on given tolerance error and structural parameters. As a numerical example uncertain cross-sectional areas of members that can resist applied loads are investigated and it demonstrates that the present design method is superior to conventional allowable stress designs (ASD) with respect to a reliably structural safety as well as an economical material.

본 연구는 프리스트레스트 콘크리트 포장(PSCP)의 횡방향 긴장 설계방안을 구축하기 위하여 수행되었다. 우선 PSCP에 횡방향 긴장을 가했을 경우에 긴장간격에 따른 슬래브의 응력분포를 분석하였다. 또한 환경하중과 차륜하중이 PSCP슬래브에 작용할 때 슬래브에 발생하는 인장응력의 분포도 분석하였다. 이러한 환경 및 차륜하중 등의 설계하중과 긴장응력을 결정하는 기준인 슬래브의 허용인장응력을 합리적으로 선정하는 방법에 대하여 논의하였으며 이러한 기준의 선정이 횡방향 긴장 설계에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 연구결과, 긴장간격이 커질수록 긴장응력의 손실을 가져오는 범위가 넓어지며 특히 Shoulder부분에서의 응력손실이 급격하게 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 횡방향 긴장 설계는 설계하중에 대한 슬래브의 응력을 산출한 후 슬래브가 허용인장응력 이내의 응력을 받도록 평균긴장응력을 산출하여 긴장간격 및 긴장량을 결정하면 되지만, 이때 Shoulder, Wheel Pass, 중앙부 등 슬래브의 여러 다른 위치에서의 응력 또한 반드시 검토하여 적절한 긴장간격을 선정하여야 한다.

본 논문은 호안용 매트리스내 채움재의 한계_허용 전단응력을 제시하였다. 먼저, 매트리스가 설치된 수로에서 유수력이 작용할 때 각 지점에 대한 유효전단응력을 산정하였다. 다음으로, 입자들의 한계운동을 결정하는데 주로 사용되는 Shields 계수와 전단응력을 이용한 채움재의 평균입경을 산정하였다. 마지막으로, 산정된 각 인자들을 근거로 철망내 개별 암석의 안정조건을 만족시키는 한계_허용 전단응력의 범위를 결정하였다. 또한 매트리스와 사석의 비교를 통해 매트리스의 거동에 관한 안정성을 규명하면서 안정적인 수리구조물임을 입증하였다. 따라서 동일 한계전단 응력에 대한 소요 평균입경은 사석이 매트리스보다 대략 3배 정도 더 크다. 이와 반대로 동일 크기의 암석이 주어질 때 매트리스는 사석보다 3배 정도 더 큰 전단응력에도 저항할 수 있는 것으로 분석되었다.

Steel, concrete and their combination materials are the most 6commonly used materials for civil engineering structural systems such as buildings, bridge structures and other structures. Recently, however, fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites, a relatively new composite material made of fibers and polymer resins, have been gradually used in structural systems as an alternative structural material. This paper describes a comparison of design strength equations for steel column and FRP composite column based on design philosophies. The safety factors used in allowable stress design (ASD) are relatively higher in FRP structural design than steel structural design. Column critical stress equations of FRP composites column from an experimental study can be represented by Euler elastic buckling equation at the long-range of slenderness, and an exponential form at the short-range of slenderness as defined in Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) of steel column. The column strength of steel and FRP composite columns in large slenderness is independent of material strength, this result verified the elastic buckling equation as derived by Eq. (15) and Eq. (5).

In the present study damage behavior of resilient sleepers on concrete ballasts is analyzed. Cracks of resilient sleepers in a railway track system are concentrated on inside of blocks to which the tie bars are connected. Finite element analysis is performed by dividing a block into the straight section and the curved section according to the load condition of the resilient sleeper, and limited the interpretation within the range of resilience. In addition, the value of stress obtained from the interpretation was compared with the allowable stress of concrete to determine the safety. According to the result of numerical analysis, compared with the stress before unequal settlement, the tensile stress of the inside of the block increased significantly after the settlement considering the entire block, and the tensile stress of this part exceeded the allowable stress of concrete, so was undesirable in terms of safety. In reality, the arrangement of tensile stiffeners inside blocks connected to tie bars is improper in the design of resilient sleepers, and when unequal settlement occurs, tensile stress increases on this part and consequently causes cracking damage. It is necessary to arrange wire meshes or tensile reinforcing bars in a structurally safe way to reinforce the inside of blocks on which cracks are concentrated.

An analysis program for the evaluation of pressure vessel integrity under pressurized thermal shock (PTS) is developed. For given material properties and transient history such as temperature and pressure, the stress distribution is calculated and then stress intensity factors are obtained for a wide range of crack sizes. The stress intensity factors are compared with the fracture toughness to check if cracking is expected to occur during the transient. Using this program a round robin problem of PTS during a small break loss of coolant transient has been analyzed as a part of the international comparative assessment study. The allowable maximum reference nil-ductility transition temperatures are determined for various crack sizes.

An extended model for the assessment of fatigue reliability of steel structures In the presence of residual stresses Is developed. The model explicitly Includes the uncertainties of the lean stress and residual stress in terms of the zero-mean equivalent stress-range. It Is assumed that the fatigue life of welded Joints follows the Weibull distribution. Based on the numerical illustrations, It Is shown that the probability of fatigue fat lure and the allowable stress-range for fatigue design could be significantly affected by the presence of residual stresses. This effect may be represented through the mean stress at the welded joints.

Fatigue failure is a phenomenon such that structures under cyclic service load is failed by sudden brittle manner. Therefore, in order to obtain structures safety against the fatigue failure during their service lifes, fatigue characteristics should be considered for design and analysis of the structures. As stress range of prestressed (PS) tendons, which governs fatigus characteristic of prestressed concrete (PSC) structures, increases with increased use of partial prestressig, it is more necessary to consider fatigue characteristics of PS tendons. In this paper, direct-tension fatigue experiments with special specimen-setting devices are carried out to obtain fatigue characteristics of domestic low relaxation PS strands having different diameters and PS strands connected with coupler. Then, allowable stress range of fatigue for PSC beams using low relaxation strands are presented for the fatigue examination of prestressed concrete beams applied cyclic loading.
