  • PSC I 거더의 장경간화는 단면의 세장비와 자중의 영향 등을 증가시켜 거더의 횡적 불안정에 대한 위험성을 높였다. 특히 최근에는 시공 중 거더의 전도 붕괴사고가 증가하고 있어 거더의 횡적 불안정성에 대한 평가 기술이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 시공 중 전도 붕괴의 한 원인으로 판단되어지고 있는 풍하중에 대하여 PSC I 거더의 횡방향 거동 특성과 안정성을 평가하였다. 거더의 횡방향 불안정성은 주로 거더의 길이와 받침의 강성 변화에 의해 영향을 받는다. 해석결과에 의하면 거더의 경간장이 증가함에 따라 거더의 횡적 불안정성을 유발할 수 있는 임계 풍하중은 감소하고, 거더의 변형과 회전각, 받침의 회전각은 모두 증가하였다. 최종적으로 시공 시 PSC I 거더의 임계 풍하중과 임계 횡변위량을 계산할 수 있는 해석식을 제시함으로써, 시공 시 거더의 횡적 안정성을 유지하기 위한 정량적 관리 수치를 제공할 수 있으리라 판단된다.

  • 본 연구에서는 모형실험을 실시하여 수평하중 작용 시 무리말뚝의 거동을 평가하였다. 암반을 모사한 콘크리트 블럭에 모형말뚝을 말뚝직경(D)의 1배로 근입시키고, 상부에 모래를 1m 깊이로 포설한 $2{\times}3$ 배열의 무리말뚝에 대하여 모형실험을 실시하였다. 그리고 말뚝길이는 11D, 15D와 20D의 세 종류이다. 각 조건에 대한 모형실험의 결과를 수평하중-변위 곡선으로 나타냈으며, 지반 속에서 발생한 말뚝의 변위를 측정하였다. 모형실험 결과, 말뚝 길이/직경의 비(L/D)가 작아질수록 항복하중은 커지고, 항복하중에서의 수평변위는 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다. 도로교설계기준의 수평변위 기준인 15mm에서의 하중을 비교한 결과, L/D가 11, 15, 20에서의 항복하중은 각각 11.7, 6.2, 3.4kN으로 나타났다. 모든 실험 조건에 대하여 지반 속에서 발생한 말뚝의 수평변위는 거의 직선적으로 나타났고, 모형 말뚝이 콘크리트 블록에 소켓된 지점에서 파괴가 발생하였다.

  • 수평하중에 대한 지지력의 발휘는 말뚝의 주요 용도 중 하나이며, 최근 초고층 건물, 송전탑, 풍력발전기 등 수평하중이 지배적인 구조물의 증가로 이에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. Broms(1964) 이후 많은 연구자들이 수평방향 지지력 산정을 위한 방법들을 제안하여 왔으나, 각 방법별로 서로 다른 토압분포와 수평토압계수를 가정하여 설계자로 하여금 혼란을 가져을 여지를 갖고 있다. 수평지지력 산정에 주요 요소가 되는 수평토압계수는 수평하증에 의한 말뚝의 회전 거동에 영향을 받는다. Prasad와 Chari(1999)는 말뚝의 회전점을 가정하여 극한지지력을 산정하는 식을 제안하였다. 본 연구에서는 균일지반과 다층지반의 모두에서 말뚝의 회전점을 측정하였으적, 기존의 연구 결과와 비교하였다. 실험 결과 회전점 측정값과Prasad와 Chari(1999)의 예측값이 잘 일치하였으며 다층지반은 회전점의 위치를 변하게 하는 요소로 작용하는 것으로 나타났다.

  • This paper aims to investigate the seismic behavior and influence parameters of the large-scaled thin-walled reinforced concrete (RC) tubular columns in air-cooled supporting structures of thermal power plants (TPPs). Cyclic loading tests and finite element analysis were performed on 1/8-scaled specimens considering the influence of wall diameter ratio, axial compression ratio, longitudinal reinforcement ratio, stirrup reinforcement ratio and adding steel diagonal braces (SDBs). The research results showed that the cracks mainly occurred on the lower half part of RC tubular columns during the cyclic loading test; the specimen with the minimum wall diameter ratio presented the earlier cracking and had the most cracks; the failure mode of RC tubular columns was large bias compression failure; increasing the axial compression ratio could increase the lateral bearing capacity and energy dissipation capacity, but also weaken the ductility and aggravate the lateral stiffness deterioration; increasing the longitudinal reinforcement ratio could efficiently enhance the seismic behavior; increasing the stirrup reinforcement ratio was favorable to the ductility; RC tubular columns with SDBs had a much higher bearing capacity and lateral stiffness than those without SDBs, and with the decrease of the angle between columns and SDBs, both bearing capacity and lateral stiffness increased significantly.

  • The main objective of this study was to investigate the seismic behavior of damaged reinforced concrete frames rehabilitated by introducing cast in place reinforced concrete infills. Four bare and five infilled frames were constructed and tested. Each specimen consisted of two (twin) 1/3-scale, one-bay and two-story reinforced concrete frames. Test specimens were tested under reversed-cyclic lateral loading until considerable damage occurred. RC infills were then introduced to the damaged specimens. One bare specimen was infilled without being subjected to any damage. All infilled frames were then tested under reversed-cyclic lateral loading until failure. While some of the test frames were detailed properly according to the current Turkish seismic code, others were built with the common deficiencies observed in existing residential buildings. The variables investigated were the effects of the damage level and deficiencies in the bare frame on the seismic behavior of the infilled frame. The deficiencies in the frame were; low concrete strength, inadequate confinement at member ends, 90 degree hooks in column and beam ties and inadequate length of lapped splices in column longitudinal bars made above the floor levels. Test results revealed that both the lateral strength and lateral stiffness increased significantly with the introduction of reinforced concrete infills even when the frame had the deficiencies mentioned above. The deficiency which affected the behavior of infilled frames most adversely was the presence of lap splices in column longitudinal reinforcement.

  • In this study, the bending behavior of cross-laminated timber (CLT) connected by nails were investigated. Especially, the load-carrying capacity of the nail-jointed CLT under out-of-plane bending was predicted by the lateral resistance of the used nails. Three-layer nail-jointed CLT specimens and a nail connection were manufactured by 30 mm (thickness) ${\times}$ 100 mm (width) domestic species (Pinus koraiensis) laminas and Ø$3.15{\times}82mm$ nails using a nail-gun. Shear test for evaluating the nail lateral resistance and bending test for evaluating the load-carrying capacity of the nail-jointed CLT under out-of-plane bending were carried out. As a result, two lateral resistance of the used nail, the 5% fastener offset value and the maximum value, were 913 N and 1,534 N, respectively. The predicted load-carrying capacity of the nail-jointed CLT by the 5% offset nail lateral resistance was similar to the yield points on the actual load-displacement curve of the nail-jointed CLT specimens. Meanwhile, the nail-jointed CLT specimens were not failed until the tension failure of the bottom laminas occurred beyond the maximum lateral resistance of the nails. Thus, the measured maximum load carrying capacities of the nail-jointed CLT specimens, approximately 12,865 N, were higher than the predicted values, 7,986 N, by the maximum nail lateral resistance. This indicates that the predicted load-carrying capacity can be used for designing a structural unit such as floor, wall and roof able to support vertical loads in a viewpoint of predicting the actual capacities more safely.

  • An analytical model incorporating bending and shear behavior is presented to predict the lateral loading characteristic for rectangular hollow columns. The moment-curvature relationship for the rectangular hollow sections of a column is firstly determined. Then the nonlinear lateral load-displacement relationship for the hollow column can be obtained accordingly. In this model, thirteen constitutive laws for confined concrete and five approaches to estimate the shear capacity are used. A series of tests on 12 model hollow columns aimed at the seismic shear behavior are reported, and the test data are compared to the analytical results. It is found that the analytical model reflects the experimental results rather closely.

  • The infill walls, whose contribution to the earthquake resistance of a structure is generally ignored due to their limited lateral rigidities, constitute a part of the lateral load bearing system of an RC frame structure. A common method for improving the earthquake behavior of RC frame structures is increasing the contribution of the infill walls to the overall lateral rigidity by strengthening them through different techniques. The present study investigates the influence of externally bonded perforated steel plates on the load capacities, rigidities, and ductilities of hollow brick infill walls. For this purpose, a reference (unstrengthened) and twelve strengthened specimens were subjected to monotonic diagonal compression. The experiments indicated that the spacing of the bolts, connecting the plates to the wall, have a more profound effect on the behavior of a brick wall compared to the thickness of the strengthening plates. Furthermore, an increase in the plate thickness was shown to result in a considerable improvement in the behavior of the wall only if the plates are connected to the wall with closely-spaced bolts. This strengthening technique was found to increase the energy absorption capacities of the walls between 4 and 14 times the capacity of the reference wall. The strengthened walls reached ultimate loads 30-160% greater than the reference wall and all strengthened walls remained intact till the end of the test.

  • The inelastic behavior of a reinforced concrete columns is influenced by a number of factors : 1) level of axial load, 2) tie spacing, 3) volumetric ratio of lateral steel, 4) concrete strength, 5) distribution of longitudinal steel, 6) strength of lateral steel, 7) cover thickness, 8) configuration of lateral steel, 9) strain gradient, 10) strain rate, 11) the effectively confined concrete core area, and 12) amount of longitudinal steel. A new constitutive model of a confined concrete is suggested in order to investigate the nonlinear behavior of the reinforced concrete columns under concentric loading. The developed constitutive model for the confined concrete takes into account the effects of effectively confined area as well as the horizontal and longitudinal distributions of the confining pressures. None of the existing models incorporated these two main effects at the same time. A total of different six constitutive models for the behavior of the confined concrete under concentric compression were compared with the sixty-one test results reported by different researchers. The superiority of the developed model in its accuracy is demonstrated by evaluating the error function, which compares the weighted averages for the sum of squared relative differences in peak compressive strength and corresponding strain, stress at strain equal to 0.015, and total area under stress-strain curve up to strain equal to 0.015.
