Recently, many design codes including ACI 318-02 recommend the use of a strut-tie model approach for design of structural concrete with D-region(s). However, there are several unclear problems and shortcomings in the codes' strut-tie model approach. A grid strut-tie model approach was proposed to resolve these problems. In this study, the ultimate strengths of 17 deep beams, the most familiar type of D-regions, were evaluated for the validity check of the grid strut-tie model approach. The analytical results obtained by the approach are compared with those by the strut-tie model approach presented by CEB-FIP, AASHTO LRFD, and ACI 318-02.

This paper presents push-out tests of stud shear connectors to examine their fatigue behavior for developing a new composite bridge deck system. The fifteen push-out specimens of D16 mm stud welded on 9 mm steel plate were fabricated according to Eurocode-4, and a series of fatigue endurance test and residual strength test were performed. Additionally, the stiffness and strength variations by cyclic loading were compared. The push-out test, when the stiffness reduction ratio of the specimens was 0.95 under cyclic load, resulted in the failure of the studs. The stiffness variation of the push-out specimens additionally showed that the application of cyclic loads reduced the residual strength. The fatigue strength of the shear connectors were compared with the design values specified in the Eurocode-4, ASSHTO LRFD and JSSC codes. The comparison result showed that the fatigue endurance of the specimens satisfies the design values of these codes.

The current Korea bridge design specifications have no provisions about concrete Barrier. And there are no test results of registence strength of the concrete barrier at the vehicle collision sites. This paper reports experimental results of concrete barrier on bridge deck conctructed by standard drawing of SB5 grade. Eight specimens were tested under static test. The specimens are divided by two groups (D-series and B-series). D-series is to show failure pattern of bridge deck. B-series is to show failure pattern of concrete Barrier. The test results compared with calculation results using Yield-Line theory of AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications.

Steel encased composite columns are widely used due to their excellent structural performance in terms of stiffness, strength, and ductility. However, experimental studies were usually for the columns having higher steel ratio $(3-4\%)$. There are two different design concepts for SRC columns. ACI-318 specifies the design strength of the column using the same concept of reinforced concrete columns. AISC-LRFD specifies the P-M diagram using the concept of steel column. In this paper, SRC columns have the steel ratio of $0.53\%\;and\;1.06\%$. From the test results, ACI-318 specifications showed better evaluation of SRC columns having low steel ratio. H beam and steel tube partially filled with concrete were embedded in concrete. Flexural tests showed considerably high ductility.

U-Channel Bridge is effective bridge type, because its edge beam performs role of barrier and enables to reduce additional dead loads. Nevertheless, there is possibility of bridge collapse under impact load due to car crash. Also, edge beam must have ability to induce safe driving and prevent falling accidents. Therefore, this study carries out analysis of behavior of edge beam and slab and evaluation of structural stability under impact loads, based on Korean Highway Bridge Design Specifications and AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specification. According to analysis result, the maximum stress of edge beam and slab satisfies specification of allowable stress.

현행 강구조 설계기준은 일반 구조용 강재의 이론과 실험에 의한 결과에 근거를 한다. 그러나 오스테나이트계 스테인리스 강재는 일반 구조용 강재와 달리 연속항복 현상이 일어난다. 설계기준강도를 결정짓는 옾셋강도는 현행 설계기준의 판폭두께비 제한값에 영향을 미친다. 단주압축 실험결과 0.2% 옾셋강도를 설계기준강도로 하면 허용응력도 설계법과 한계상태 설계법에서 정하고 있는 판폭두께비의 규정을 모두 만족하였다. 또한 일반 구조용 강재와 달리 판폭두께비를 만족시키지 못하는 경우에도 최대내력에 도달하기 전에 국부좌굴이 발생하지만 급격한 내력저하는 일어나지 않았다.

Domes are architectural and elegant structures which cover a vast area with no interrupting columns in the middle, and with suitable shapes can be also economical. Domes are built in a wide variety of forms and specialized terms are available to describe them. According to their form, domes are given special names such as network, lamella, Schwedler, ribbed, and geodesic domes. In this paper, an optimum topology design algorithm is performed using the enhanced colliding bodies optimization (ECBO) method. The network, lamella, ribbed and Schwedler domes are studied to determine the optimum number of rings, the optimum height of crown and tubular sections of these domes. The minimum volume of each dome is taken as the objective function. A simple procedure is defined to determine the dome structures configurations. This procedure includes calculating the joint coordinates and element constructions. The design constraints are implemented according to the provision of LRFD-AISC (Load and Resistance Factor Design-American Institute of Steel Constitution). The wind loading act on domes according to ASCE 7-05 (American Society of Civil Engineers). This paper will explore the efficiency of various type of domes and compare them at the first stage to investigate the performance of these domes under different kind of loading. At the second stage the wind load on optimum design of domes are investigated for Schwedler dome. Optimization process is performed via ECBO algorithm to demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the ECBO in creating optimal design for domes.

현행 국내 교량 설계기준의 활하중 모형인 KL-510의 하중 효과를 실측된 통행자료로부터 통계적으로 추정한 트럭의 연행효과 및 국내외 관련 설계기준이 하중모형과 비교한다. 과적단속 전후에 고속도로에서 측정된 트럭의 중량 자료를 이용하여 설계기준의 활하중 모형 결정과 동일한 과정을 따라서 트럭 중량을 산정하여 그 하중효과를 KL-510과 비교하였다. KL-510은 운행제한중량을 초과하는 트럭을 일부 포함하는 자료로부터 추정한 트럭의 연행에 의한 하중효과와 매우 부합하는 결과를 보였다. KL-510은 미국 AASHTO LRFD의 활하중 모형과 일관성 있는 결과를 주며, 기존 하중 모형인 DB-24보다 하중효과의 비율이 균일하였다. 이 연구의 결과로 가상의 하중 모형인 KL-510에 해당하는 실제 트럭의 조합을 구성하였으며, 향후 공용중인 교량의 평가와 허가차량의 하중계수 보정에 적용할 수 있다.

This paper proposes a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm, which is improved by making use of the Harmony Search (HS) approach and called HS-PSO algorithm. A computer code is developed for optimal sizing design of non-linear steel frames with various semi-rigid and rigid beam-to-column connections based on the HS-PSO algorithm. The developed code selects suitable sections for beams and columns, from a standard set of steel sections such as American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) wide-flange W-shapes, such that the minimum total cost, which comprises total member plus connection costs, is obtained. Stress and displacement constraints of AISC-LRFD code together with the size constraints are imposed on the frame in the optimal design procedure. The nonlinear moment-rotation behavior of connections is modeled using the Frye-Morris polynomial model. Moreover, the P-${\Delta}$ effects of beam-column members are taken into account in the non-linear structural analysis. Three benchmark design examples with several types of connections are presented and the results are compared with those of standard PSO and of other researches as well. The comparison shows that the proposed HS-PSO algorithm performs better both than the PSO and the Big Bang-Big Crunch (BB-BC) methods.
