Large-scale cantilever reinforced concrete (RC) columns with footing/stub were examined to determine their seismic response under a quasi-static increasing-magnitude cyclic lateral loading. Three-dimensional (3D) numerical models of RC columns with ductile and non-ductile reinforcement arrangements were developed in a Finite Element (FE) software, i.e., ABAQUS, to corroborate them with the experimental study conducted by the author. Both simulated models were validated with the experimental results in all respects, and the theoretical axial capacity of columns under concentric axial load (P₀) was calculated. Subsequently, a detailed parametric study was conducted by adopting the force and reinforcement variables. These variables include axial compression ratios (ACR) varying from 0.35P₀ to 0.7P₀ and the amount of lateral reinforcements taken as 0.33% and 1.31% representing the non-ductile and ductile columns, respectively. This research outcome conclusively quantifies the combined effect of ACR levels and lateral reinforcement spacing on the flexural response and ductility characteristics of RC columns. The comparative analysis reveals that increased ACR levels resulted in a severe reduction in strength, deformability and ductility characteristics of both ductile and non-ductile columns. Structural response of ductile columns at higher ACR levels was comparable to the non-ductile columns, nullifying the beneficial effects of ductile design provisions. Higher ACR levels caused decline in pre-peak and post-peak response trajectories, leading to an earlier attainment of peak response at lower drift levels.

Recently, structure performance is maximized by using high strength concrete. In design of structure, concrete need combination with reinforcement, but use of common strength reinforcement make member complex bar placement, so high strength concrete members require increased strength reinforcement. If common strength reinforcement replaced by equal tension area of high strength reinforcement, reinforcement ratio increase and brittle failure of member may occur by material change. So, adequate upper limit of strength ratio is required to affirm ductile behavior in application of high strength reinforcement. In this study, ductility behavior was analysed by factor of reinforcement ratio, strength of concrete and reinforcement. The result indicate that ductile failure is shown under 0.35 $\rho_{b}$ in any reinforcement strength of same section and high strength concrete of 800kg/$cm^{2}$ used commonly is compatible with reinforcement of 5500kg/$cm^{2}$.

In this study, flexural tests of granite reinforced with titanium metal rods were carried out to repair and restore the damaged stone-made cultural heritage, the Stone Pagoda of the Mireuksa Temple Site. A total of twelve specimens were tested. The primary test parameters are the reinforcement ratio and the location of the reinforcement. For restoration, epoxy resin was used for joining the separated stones, and titanium metal rods were used for structural reinforcement. Test results showed that the flexural failure took place in specimens with a reinforcement ratio of 0.8% or less, and shear failure occurred when the reinforcement ratio was 1.68% or more. The peak load of the reinforced stone was found to be highly related to the reinforcement ratio. The peak load increased with increasing the reinforcement ratio. Also, the flexural behaviors of the reinforced stones were affected by the location of the reinforcement. Based on the test results, this study recommends the reinforcement ratio of the reinforced granite to induce ductile behavior.

This paper investigates the effect of ductile deformation behavior of high performance hybrid fiber-reinforced cement composites (HPHFRCCs) on the shear behavior of coupling beams to lateral load reversals. The matrix ductility and the reinforcement layout were the main variables of the tests. Three short coupling beams with two different reinforcement arrangements and matrixes were tested. They were subjected to cyclic loading by a suitable experimental setup. All specimens were characterized by a shear span-depth ratio of 1.0. The reinforcement layouts consisted of a classical scheme and diagonal scheme without confining ties. The effects of matrix ductility on deflections, strains, crack widths, crack patterns, failure modes, and ultimate shear load of coupling beams have been examined. The combination of a ductile cementitious matrix and steel reinforcement is found to result in improved energy dissipation capacity, simplification of reinforcement details, and damage-tolerant inelastic deformation behavior. Test results showed that the HPFRCC coupling beams behaved better than normal reinforced concrete control beams. These results were produced by HPHFRCC's tensile deformation capacity, damage tolerance and tensile strength.

최근 국내에서도 지진의 발생 가능성이 증가하는 추세이며 교량, 터널 등과 같은 공공이용시설의 안전에 대한 우려도 증가하고 있다. 특히 1988년 이전 건설된 도시철도 시설물의 대부분은 내진설계가 반영되지 않아 내진안전성에 대한 검토와 보강이 요구되고 있다. 최근 가장 많이 연구되는 내진보강법인 섬유보강공법은 섬유의 특성은 우수하나 내진구조물의 취약점인 취성적이라는 것이 단점이다. 본 연구에서는 도시철도 개착식 터널의 내진성능 향상을 도모하기 위하여 FRP에 연성재료인 스틸과 알루미늄을 적층하여 새로운 FRP-연성재 적층 복합체를 제안하였다. FRP-연성재 적층 복합체의 인장 시험결과, 알루미늄 연성재를 사용한 경우 기존의 FRP 보강재보다 최대강도는 비슷하였으나 최대변형률이 증가하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 FRP-알루미늄의 적층복합체는 연성이 요구되는 도시철도 개착식 터널에 적용할 경우 내진성능 향상에 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.

동일한 인장철근배근상태($\rho$/$\rho_b$=constant)에서 휨을 받는 고강도 철근 콘크리트 보는 보통강도의 철근 콘크리트보에 비해 더욱 취성적인 거동을 하게 된다. 본 실험결과 연성적인 파괴를 유도하기 위하여 콘크리트의 강도가 830kg/$cm^2$이상일 경우 철근비를 $0.6\rho_b$이하로 배근하여야 할 것으로 나타났다. 또한 콘크리트 강도가 830kg/$cm^2$ 이상일 경우 사각형응력 블록을 사용한 ACI 휨강도식의 안전율이 감소하였으며, 삼각형에 가까운 압축응력 분포를 나타내었다. 이는 콘크리트 강도가 증가할수록 응력-변형률 곡선이 거의 선형적으로 증가하는 재료적 성질에 기인하는 것으로 사료된다.

Recently, the need for strengthening reinforced concrete(R.C.) structure has been increased, particularly when there is an increase in load requirements, a change in use, a degradation problem, or design/construction defects. The use of composite materials for structural repair presents several advantages and has been investigated all over the world. It is well known that the incorporation of carbon fiber sheet(CFS) with concrete is one of the most effective ways to strengthen the R.C. structure. In this papers, experimentally investigated the ductile behavior of the R.C. beams strengthened with CFS, and provided the basic data for design of R.C. beams strengthened with CFS. Tests were carried out with 15 beams ($20cm{\times}30cm{\times}240cm$) reinforced with CFS, and with parameters including and the ratio of tensile reinforcement to that of balanced condition and number of CFS. The results show that strengthened and non-strengthened beams exhibit different ductile behovior. Non-strengthened beams showed increase of ductility as amount of the tensile reinforcement decreased. However, bearing capacity of the CFS-strengthened beams are dictated by the strength of the CFS layers that a very high ductility is indicated for the beams with large number of CFS.

This study proposed a seismic reinforcement of RC columns with non-seismic details, a fiber reinforcement method of aramid sheets and MLCP (high elasticity aromatic polyester fiber material) with different characteristics, and 4 full-size column specimens and conducted experiments. The results show that a non-seismic specimen (RC-Orig) rapidly lost its load-bearing capacity after reaching the maximum load, and shear failure occurred. The RC column reinforced with three types of aramid did not show an apparent increase in strength compared to the unreinforced specimen but showed a ductile behavior supporting the load while receiving a lateral displacement at least 1.57 to 1.95 times higher than the unreinforced specimen. The fracture mode of the specimen, according to the application of lateral load, also changed from shear to ductile fracture through aramid-based reinforcement. In addition, when examining the energy dissipation ability of the reinforced specimens, a ductile behavior dissipating seismic energy performed 4 times greater and more stably than the existing specimens.

This research aims to investigate the seismic response of RC shear wall buildings of 5-, 6-, 7-, 8-, 9-, and 10-story designed as conventional and ductile and located in moderate seismic zone in Saudi Arabia in accordance with the seismic provisions of the American code ASCE-7-16. Dynamic analysis is conducted using the developed models in ETABS and the design spectra of the selected zone. The seismic responses of a number of design variations are evaluated in terms of story displacements, drift, shear and moments of both conventional and ductile building models as performance measures and presented comparatively. In addition, pushover analysis is also performed for the lowest and highest building models. Cost estimate of ductile and conventional walls is evaluated and compared to each other in terms of weight of reinforcement bars. In addition, due to the complexity of design and installation of ductile shear walls, sensitivity analysis is performed as well. It is observed that conventional design considerably increases induced seismic responses as well as cost compared to ductile one.

지진하중을 받는 철근콘크리트 접합부의 거동은 전단과 부착 메커니즘에 의해 결정된다. 하지만 전단과 부착은 반복하중에 매우 취약하기 때문에 접합부는 항상 탄성 영역 내에 있어야 한다. 내진 설계 기준에서는 보에 소성힌지를 발생시켜 기둥과 접합부는 탄성 상태를 유지하면서 보에서 에너지소산이 이루어지도록 하는 것을 원칙으로 한다. 하지만 접합부와 인접한 보에 소성힌지가 발생할 경우, 보에서 발생한 소성힌지에서의 철근 변형률이 접합부 철근의 변형에 영향을 미쳐 결국 접합부의 전단 및 부착강도를 떨어뜨리는 결과를 가져오게 된다. 본 논문에서는 보 인장 철근량을 변수로 한 다섯 개의 철근콘크리트 보-기둥 접합부를 제작하고 보에 소성힌지를 발생시킨 후 그 결과를 분석하였다. 실험 결과, 보 인장철근량이 적을수록 접합부의 연성은 증가하였다. 또한 소성힌지 영역의 철근이 항복함에 따라 접합부의 연성률이 증가하고 접합부의 보 부재축 방향 인장변형률도 증가하였다.
