The support deflection effects in slabs with beams and girders are reviewed for both cases of the uniformly distributed and concentrated wheel loads. The differences in structural behavior according to the variation of support stiffness namely, the moment of inertia of beam and gilder, and the slab thickness, are calculated using the finite element method. Besides. the correction factors which can consider the support deflection effects in slab design are proposed by regression based on the obtained numerical results. Through the comparision studies of slabs with different boundary conditions, the importance for the consideration of support deflection effects in design are emphasized.

Evaporation of concrete influences the development of both initial transverse cracking and delamination in the concrete slab. It was suggested that spatting distress might develop in the slab where the initial transverse cracking occurred by theoretical equations and a field investigation. Thus, efforts to prevent the evaporation of concrete using proper curing methods are required to minimize the distresses of the slabs. Effective curing thickness (ECT) concept was used in this paper to evaluate various curing methods used to prevent the evaporation from concrete. Curing effectiveness quantified by the ECT of different types and amounts of curing compound under various curing conditions was investigated based on the results of laboratory tests. According to the test results, the wind speed is inferred to be a significant factor of the magnitude and continuance duration of the curing effectiveness.

A multiscale method is presented for analysis of thin slab structures in which the microstructures can not be reduced to two-dimensional plane stress models and thus three dimensional treatment of microstructures is necessary. This method is based on the classical asymptotic expansion multiscale approach but with consideration of the special geometric characteristics of the slab structures. This is achieved via a special form of multiscale asymptotic expansion of displacement field. The expanded three dimensional displacement field only exhibits in-plane periodicity and the thickness dimension is in the global scale. Consequently by employing the multiscale asymptotic expansion approach the global macroscopic structural problem and the local microscopic unit cell problem are rationally set up. It is noted that the unit cell is subjected to the in-plane periodic boundary conditions as well as the traction free conditions on the out of plane surfaces of the unit cell. The variational formulation and finite element implementation of the unit cell problem are discussed in details. Thereafter the in-plane material response is systematically characterized via homogenization analysis of the proposed special unit cell problem for different microstructures and the reasoning of the present method is justified. Moreover the present multiscale analysis procedure is illustrated through a plane stress beam example.

This paper measures the mechanical response of precast pavement joints under moving axle loads using the finite-element method, and the models were validated with results of field tests. In order to increase the ability to use the non-linear FE analysis for design and assessment of precast pavement subjected to moving axle load, this paper investigated the effects of different load transfer between the slabs using the ABAQUS finite-element package to solve the nonlinear explicit model equations. The assembly of the panels using dowels and groove-tongue keys has been studied to assess the efficiency of keyway joint system. Concrete damage plasticity model was used to calculate the effects of permanent damages related to the failure mechanisms. With aggregate interlock as the only load transferring system, Load transfer efficiency (LTE) is not acceptable when the axle load reaches to slab joints. The Finite-element modelling (FEM) results showed that keyway joints significantly reduced tensile stresses developed at the mid-slab. Increasing the thickness of the tongue the LTE was improved but with increasing the height of the tongue the LTE was decreased. Stresses are transferred to the adjacent slab efficiently when dowels are embedded within the model. When the axle load approaches joints, tensile damage occurs sooner than compressive damage, but the damage rate remains constant, then compressive damage increases significantly and become the major form of distress under the dowels.

The purpose of this study is to propose a modification factor to reflect the lateral stiffness modification when a step is located in flat plates. Reinforced concrete slabs with steps have different structural characteristics that are demonstrated by a series of structural experiment and nonlinear analyses. The corner at the step is weak and flexible, and the associated rotational stiffness degradation at the corner of the step is identified through analyses of 6 types of models using a nonlinear finite element program. Then a systematic analysis of stiffness changes is performed using a linear finite element procedure along with rotational springs. The lateral stiffness of reinforced concrete flat plates with steps is mainly affected by the step length, location, thickness and height. Therefore, a single modification factor for each of these variables is obtained, while other variables are constrained. When multiple variables are considered, each single modification factor is multiplied by the other. Such a method is verified by a comparative analysis. Finally, a complex modification factor can be applied to the existing effective slab width.

In fire design for floors, the three criteria of stability, integrity and insulation are required for the specified fire resistance duration. Among these, stability is not easy to confirm. For solid prestressed concrete slabs of uniform thickness, Eurocode 2 provides tabulated data and specifies an axis distance to the centroid of strands to achieve particular fire resistance ratings, but it is not clear if this data can be used for a wide range of different prestressed slab profiles. In order to verify the current code-fire ratings for precast prestressed slabs, both simple and advanced calculation methods are investigated. This paper examines the use of calculation methods, accounting for the real behaviour of unprotected simply supported prestressed concrete slabs exposed to the standard ISO 834 fire. The calculated fire resistance of each prestressed concrete slab is compared with tabulated data in Eurocode part 1.2, with detailed discussion.

이 연구는 탄소섬유판공법을 사용하여 보강된 철근콘크리트 슬래브에 집중하중 즉 같은 위치에서 휨모멘트와 전단력이 동시에 최대가 되는 경우에 대하여 탄소섬유판의 두께를 변수로 하여 슬래브의 구조적 거동을 실험하였다. 탄소섬유판의 두께에 따른 내력의 차이는 뚜렷이 나타나지 않았으며 이는 보강시험의 주된 파괴가 탄소섬유판의 파단이 아닌 하중점 주위에서의 휨-전단균열에서부터 층분리가 시작되기 때문이다. 그러므로 재하상태에 따른 설계방법을 다르게 할 필요가 있으며, 특히 같은 위치에서 휨 모멘트와 전단력이 최대가 되는 경우 탄소섬유판의 두께는 최대 0.6mm로 하고 무보강슬래브의 휨모멘트에 대한 보강된 슬래브의 휨모멘트는 1.5-2.0으로 제한하는 것이 바람직하다.

본 논문은 CFRP 격자 보강재로 보강한 콘크리트 슬래브의 파괴형태와 보강설계기준에 대한 연구이다. 실험 연구에서 채택한 시험변수로는 CFRP 격자 보강재의 양, 보강 모르타르의 깊이, 앵커핀의 유무, 압축부 보강 등이다. 연구에 의하면 CFRP 격자 섬유 보강량에 따라 파괴형태가 다르게 나타났는데 낮은 보강수준에서는 FRP 격자의 인장 파단파괴를 보였고 보통의 보강정도에서는 격자층 계면전단파괴가 발생하였다. 높은 보강량을 가진 슬래브에서는 사인장전단파괴 형태를 나타냈다. 보강 효과는 FRP 격자 보강재의 양이 증가할수록 증대하였으나 취성 전단파괴에 의해 연성은 감소되었다. 따라서 FRP 격자 보강량을 제한함으로써 갑자기 하중 지지력을 상실하는 전단파괴를 피할 수 있다. 파괴형태 중 CFRP 파단파괴가 바람직한데 그 이유는 섬유파단 후에도 극한상태에서 보강 전 슬래브의 하중지지력과 연성을 가지고 있기 때문이다. 마지막으로 본 논문은 CFRP 격자섬유보강설계기준과 과정을 제시하고 있다.

Commonly in steel frames, steel beam and concrete slab are connected together by shear keys to work as a unit member which is called composite beam. When a composite beam is subjected to positive bending, flexural strength and stiffness of the beam can be increased due to "composite action". At the same time despite these advantages, composite action increases the strain at the beam bottom flange and it might affect beam plastic rotation capacity. This paper presents results of study on the rotation capacity of composite beam connected to Rectangular Hollow Section (RHS) column in the steel moment resisting frame buildings. Due to out-of-plane deformation of column flange, moment transfer efficiency of web connection is reduced and this results in reduction of beam plastic rotation capacity. In order to investigate the effects of width-to-thickness ratio (B/t) of RHS column on the rotation capacity of composite beam, cyclic loading tests were conducted on three full scale beam-to-column subassemblies. Detailed study on the different steel beam damages and concrete slab damages are presented. Experimental data showed the importance of this parameter of RHS column on the seismic behavior of composite beams. It is found that occurrence of severe concrete bearing crush at the face of RHS column of specimen with smaller width-to-thickness ratio resulted in considerable reduction on the rate of strain increase in the bottom flange. This behavior resulted in considerable improvement of rotation capacity of this specimen compared with composite and even bare steel beam connected to the RHS column with larger width-to-thickness ratio.

데크플레이트와 콘크리트가 합성되어 있는 합성 바닥판 구조물은 데크플레이트의 골 방향과 골 직각방향에 대하여 강성이 다르므로 직교이방성판 거동을 보이고 있으며 테크플레이트와 콘크리트의 합성 거동으로 인하여 적층 바닥판 구조물로 평가할 수 있다. 이러한 합성데크 바닥판 구조물의 진동에 대한 정확한 사용성 평가를 위해서는 합성데크 바닥판 구조물의 정밀 진동해석을 수행하여야 한다. 이를 위해서는 합성데크 바닥판 구조물의 강성에 대한 직교이방성 그리고 데크플레이트와 콘크리트의 합성에 대한 정확한 거동 평가가 수반되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 합성데크 바닥판 구조물의 골 직각 방향에 대한 강성을 계산하기 위하여 각각의 토핑 콘크리트 두께와 데크플레이트 두께를 적용하였다. 또한 골 방향에 대한 강성을 계산하기 위하여 콘크리트와 데크플레이트의 단면 강성을 구하여 등가두께를 적용하였다. 그리고 콘크리트와 데크플레이트의 합성거동을 표현하기 위하여 적층판에 대한 등가 강성식을 적용, 합성데크 바닥판 구조물의 강성을 나타내었다. 본 논문에서 제안한 합성데크 바닥판 구조물의 실용적인 모형화방법을 적용할 경우에 합성데크 바닥판 구조물의 강성에 대한 직교이방성과 콘크리트와 데크플레이트의 합성 거동을 잘 표현할 수 있었다.
