As confining materials for concrete, steel and fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have important applications in both the seismic retrofit of existing reinforced concrete columns and in the new construction of composite structures. We present a comprehensive review of the axial stress-strain behaviour of the FRP-confined concrete column. Next, the mechanical performance of the hybrid FRP-confined concrete-steel composite columns are comprehensively reviewed. Furthermore, the results of FRP-confined concrete column experiments and FRP-confined circular concrete-filled steel tube experiments are presented to study the interaction relationship between various material sections. Finally, the combinations of material sections are discussed. Based on these observations, recommendations regarding future research directions for composite columns are also outlined.

본 논문에서는 composite hollow bushing에 사용되는 FRP tube의 winding 각도 및 장력 변화에 의한 변위 특성을 해석하였다. Winding 각도 및 장력에 따라 FRP tube의 인장 및 굽힘강도 특성이 변화되므로 최적의 composite bushing의 설계하기 위해서는 이에 대한 해석 및 시험이 요구된다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 와인딩 각도 및 와인딩 장력에 따른 굽힘강도와 변위에 대하여 고찰하였으며, 와인딩 장력에 따른 각각의 특성에 대해서도 검토하였다.

In order to determine a minimum thickness of the pultruded GFRP panel as a structural member, some experimental studies were performed. GFRP tubes with 2mm, 4mm, 6mm thickness were manufactured by pultrusion process. First, coupon tests for finding mechanical properties were carried out. Comparisons between test results and analysis results based on classical laminate theory showed large differences in case of 2mm, 4mm specimens. The reason is that it is difficult to apply appropriate pultruding force and keep layered stitched fabric flat for the pultrusion process of complex shaped FRP member with small thickness. On the consequence, we decide 6mm as a minimum thickness of FRP member. Second, 4-point bending tests were performed and the results with compared with numerical analysis. The behavior of FRP tube can be exactly predicted by numerical analysis if buckling analysis is included.

Insulators which are used in the domestic electrical industries are mostly depended on importation from some advance countries. Even though insulators which are made of ceramic material have been mostly used domestically, the ratio of usage on composite insulators is recently being increased because of difficulties in manufacturing and high cost regarding ceramic stuffs. In this research, we are trying to develop the composite insulators which are very efficient in insulation regardless of the matter of weight. Even though the technique of manufacturing composite insulator are quite generalized worldwide at the moment, one of the most important issue is to keep security on the know-how that an ingredient of insulated material named 'SF6 gas' is included. Therefore, The aim of this paper is to improve the bonding force and air tight property between two components of composite insulator, Flange and FRP Tube.

The present study focuses on the mechanical behaviour of concrete filled double skin steel tubular (CFDST) stub columns confined by fiber reinforced polymer (FRP). A series of axial compression tests have been conducted on two CFDST stub columns, eight CFDST stub columns confined by FRP and a concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) stub column confined by FRP, respectively. The influences of hollow section ratio, FRP wall thickness and fibre longitudinal-circumferential proportion on the load-strain curve and the concrete stress-strain curve for stub columns with annular section were discussed. The test results displayed that the FRP jacket can obviously enhance the carrying capacity of stub columns. Based on the test results, a new model which includes the effects of confinement factor, hollow section ratio and lateral confining pressure of the outer steel tube was proposed to calculate the compressive strength of confined concrete. Using the present concrete strength model, the formula to predict the carrying capacity of CFDST stub columns confined by FRP was derived. The theoretically predicted results agree well with those obtained from the experiments and FE analysis. The present method is also adapted to calculate the carrying capacity of CFST stub columns confined by FRP.

This research study investigates experimentally and analytically the axial compressive behaviour of Concrete Filled Fiber Reinforced Polymer Tube (CFFT) columns with and without Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) bars. The experimental program comprises five circular columns of 204-206 mm outer diameter and 800-812 mm height. All columns were tested under concentric axial compressive loads. It was found that CFFT columns with and without FRP bars achieved higher peak axial compressive loads and corresponding axial deformations than conventional steel reinforced concrete (RC) column. The contribution of FRP bars was about 12.1% of the axial compressive loads carried by CFFT columns reinforced with FRP bars. Axial load-axial deformation ($P-{\delta}$) curves of CFFT columns were analytically constructed, which mapped well with the experimental $P-{\delta}$ curves. Also, an equation was proposed to predict the axial compressive load capacity of CFFT columns with and without FRP bars, which adequately considers the contributions of the circumferential confinement provided by FRP tubes and lower ultimate strength of FRP bars in compression than in tension.

본 논문에서는 재료적 성능이 우수하며 경량재료로서 최근 건설구조물에 활용하고자 하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있는 섬유보강재료(FRP : Fiber Reinforced Polymer)를 이용한 합성구조인 CFFT(Concrete Filled FRP Tube)의 설계프로그램을 개발하여 제안하고자 하였다. 먼저, CFFT구조는 FRP관에 의해 철근콘크리트가 구속되는 구조로서 기둥과 같이 축력이 도입되는 경우 포아송효과에 의한 변형을 FRP관이 구속효과를 줌으로써 콘크리트의 역학적 거동을 개선하게 되는데 본 연구에서는 실험에 의해 검증된 식을 제시하였으며 이를 바탕으로 CFFT구조를 설계하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 또한 CFFT구조는 FRP관의 구속으로 인해 고강도콘크리트와 긴장재의 도입이 가능한 구조로서 이에 대한 설계도 포함하였다. 그러나 이방성재료인 FRP의 설계와 동시에 FRP관에 의한 구속효과를 고려하는 CFFT구조의 설계는 일반 실무설계자들에게는 다소 난해한 작업으로써 전산화 설계프로그램의 필요성이 대두되어 본 연구에서 CFFT구조의 설계프로그램을 개발하였다. 개발된 설계프로그램의 검증을 위해 일반 철근콘크리트기둥, CFFT기둥, 고강도콘크리트와 PS긴장재를 도입한 CFFT기둥을 설계한 결과, 매우 실용적이며 타당한 설계가 수행될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

This paper presents structural characteristics of station class lightning arresters and electrical characteristics of manufactured ZnO varistor blocks which are usable in those arresters. Three types of station class lightning arresters were investigated and those are a ceramic arrester, a FRP tube type polymer arrester, and a FRP rod type polymer arrester. Each arrester has merits and demerits with structural characteristics. In general, polymer arresters were made of silicon rubber for housing materials, FRP tube or rod for mechanical strength, ZnO blocks for electrical characteristics, and metal parts for electrical contact and the silicon rubber, the housing materials, was directly injected to the arrester module which was assembly composed of electrodes, ZnO blocks and FRP tube or rod, and to prevent the nonlinear electric fields distribution on upper parts of arresters, the grade ring was adopted to the upper electrodes. The reference voltage, nonlinear coefficient, residual voltage, and voltage ratio of manufactured ZnO varistors are 4.90kV, 50, 9.54kV, 1.94, respectively. Compared to designed electrical characteristics, the reference voltage was low for 600v and the voltage ratio was slightly high. However, the characteristics of discharge withstand was so excellent that the mechanical destruction does not occur at the impulse current of $8/20{\mu}s$ 10kA for 100 times.

이 연구는 새로운 형태의 FRP-콘크리트 합성말뚝인 하이브리드 CFFT(HCFFT)를 개발하는 과정의 일부이다. 이 논문에서는 CFFT와 HCFFT의 압축강도실험을 통하여 구조적 거동을 분석하였다. 압축강도실험에 앞서 PFRP와 FFRP 재료의 역학적 성질을 조사하였다. HCFFT 압축강도실험은 콘크리트 강도와 FFRP의 두께를 변수로 하여 실험을 수행하였다. 그리고, FFRP 두께를 변수로 PFRP를 제외한 CFFT 실험체를 제작하고 실험을 수행하여 HCFFT와 비교 분석하였다. 실험 결과, HCFFT의 압축강도는 CFFT에 비하여 11~47% 향상되는 것으로 나타났다. 실험구간내의 필라멘트 와인딩 FRP 보강두께의 증가에 따른 HCFFT의 압축강도는 선형으로 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 실험체와 동일한 조건의 유한요소해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과는 실험결과에 비하여 모든 시편에서 약간 작은 값을 보였으며, 0.14%에서 17.95%까지의 오차범위 내에 있음을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 높은 강도의 가스흐름으로부터 연소실 내부를 보호하기 위하여 carbon fabric을 삽입한 EPDM계 내열재를 개발하였다. 연소관 내열재의 삭마 특성을 시험하기 위하여 6-inch 모사모타에 extension tube를 연결하였고, 모타와 extension tube 사이에 구멍이 있는 FRP를 삽입하여 추진제 연소 시 높은 강도의 가스흐름을 유도하였다. 결과적으로 연소시험후 carbon fabric/EPDM 연소관 내열재의 삭마량은 다른 연소관 내열재들에 비해 감소하는 것으로 확인되었다.
