The behaviour of steel column at elevated temperature is significantly different than that at ambient temperature due to its changes in the mechanical properties with temperature. Reported literature suggests that steel column may become vulnerable when exposed to fire condition, since its strength and capacity decrease rapidly with temperature. The present study aims at investigating the lateral load resistance of non-insulated steel columns under fire exposure through finite element analysis. The studied parameters include moment-rotation behaviour, lateral load-deflection behaviour, stiffness and ductility of columns at different axial load levels. It was observed that when the temperature of the column was increased, there was a significant reduction in the lateral load and moment capacity of the non-insulated steel columns. Moreover, it was noted that the stiffness and ductility of steel columns decreased sharply with the increase in temperature, especially for temperatures above $400^{\circ}C$. In addition, the lateral load capacity and the moment capacity of columns were plotted against fire exposure time, which revealed that in fire conditions, the non-insulated steel columns experience substantial reduction in lateral load resistance within 15 minutes of fire exposure.

Earthquake resistant R/C frame structures are generally designed to prevent the columns from plastic hinging. R/C columns under higher axial load or strong earthquake showed a brittle behavior due to the deterioration of strength and stiffness degradation. An experimental study was conducted to examine the behavior and to find the relationship between amounts of lateral reinforcements and compressive strength of ten R/C column specimens subjected to reversed cyclic lateral load and higher axial load. Test results are follows : An increase in the amount of lateral reinforcement results in a significant improvement in both ductility and energy dissipation capacities of columns. R/C columns with sub-tie provide the improved ductility capacity than those with closely spaced lateral reinforcement only. While the load resisting capacity of the high strength R/C columns is higher than the normal strength concrete columns under both an identical ratio of lateral reinforcement, however the ductility capacity of high strength R/C columns is decreased considerably. Therefore, the amounts of lateral reinforcement must be designed carefully to secure the sufficient ductility and economic design of HSC columns under higher axial load.

Piled raft foundation has become widely used in the recent years because it can increase bearing capacity of foundation with control settlement. The design for a piled raft in terms vertical load and lateral load need to understands contribution load behavior to raft and pile in piled raft foundation system. The load-bearing behavior of the piled raft, especially concerning lateral loads, is highly complex and challenge to analyze. The complex mechanism of piled rafts can be clarified by using three dimensional (3-D) Finite Element Method (FEM). Therefore, this paper focuses on free-standing head pile group, on-ground piled raft, and embedded raft for the piled raft foundation systems. The lateral resistant of piled raft foundation was investigated in terms of relationship between vertical load, lateral load and displacement, as well as the lateral load sharing of the raft. The results show that both vertical load and raft position significantly impact the lateral load capacity of the piled raft, especially when the vertical load increases and the raft embeds into the soil. On the same condition of vertical settlement and lateral displacement, piled raft experiences a substantial demonstrates a higher capacity for lateral load sharing compared to the on-ground raft. Ultimately, regarding design considerations, the piled raft can reliably support lateral loads while exhibiting behavior within the elastic range, in which it is safe to use.

To find axial and lateral responses of impact-driven H piles in embankment(SM), the H piles are instrumented with electric strain gages, dynamic load test is performed during driving, and then the damage of strain gages is checked simultaneously. Axially and laterally static load tests are performed on the same piles after one to nine days as well. Then load-settlement behavior is measured. Furthermore, to find the set-up effect in H pile, No. 4, 16, 26, and R6 piles are restriked about 1, 2, and 14 days after driving. As results, ram height and pile capacity obtained from impact driving control method become 80cm and 210.3∼242.3ton, respectively. At 15 days after driving, allowable bearing capacity by CAPWAP analysis, which 2.5 of the factor of safety is applied for ultimate bearing capacity, increases 10.8%. Ultimate bearing capacity obtained from axially static load test is 306∼338ton. This capacity is 68.5∼75.7% at yield force of pile material and is 4∼4.5 times of design load. Allowable bearing capacity using 2 of the factor of safety is 153∼169ton. Initial stiffness response of the pile is 27.5ton/mm. As the lateral load increases, the horizontal load-settlement behaves linearly to which the lateral load reaches up to 17ton. This reason is filled with sand in the cavity formed between flange and web during pile driving. As the result of reading with electric strain gages, flange material of pile is yielded at 19ton in horizontal load. Thus allowable load of this pile material is 9.5ton when the factor of safety is 2.0. Allowable lateral displacement of this pile corresponding to this load is 23∼36mm in embankment.

In order to evaluate seismic performance of multi-degree-of-freedom bridge structure, moderate lateral load distribution methods using the pushover analysis were developed by many researchers. One of important variables to improve an accuracy of pushover analysis is lateral load distribution. In this study, pushover analyses were performed using the five types of lateral load distribution and seismic performances were evaluated by capacity spectrum method (CSM). To verify an accuracy of suggested lateral load distribution, the maximum displacement estimates by the CSM were compared to those by inelastic time history analysis.

본 연구에서는 다층지반에 관입된 현장타설말뚝 중 강성말뚝을 대상으로 다층지반의 조건에 따른 말뚝의 수평지지력과 수평거동에 대하여 실험적 분석을 실시하였다. 이를 위해 말뚝이 근입되는 지반에 상이한 상대밀도를 갖는 지반층을 구성하였으며, 수평하중-변위량 곡선을 통하여 극한수평지지력을 산정하고 기존의 방법을 적용시켜 산정된 극한수평지지력과 비교하였다. 또한, 말뚝에 부착된 스트레인게이지와 토압센서를 이용하여 다층지반에서의 말뚝의 수평거동에서 발생하는 휨모멘트분포와 극한단위수평지지력분포를 확인하였다. 수평재하시험결과 말뚝의 극한수평지지력은 지반의 상대밀도와 지반층의 구성에 따라 달라지며, 단일지반을 대상으로 제안된 다양한 방법으로 예측된 값에 비하여 상당부분 적게 측정되는 것으로 나타났다. 말뚝의 침모멘트 분포는 다층지반의 조건에 상관없이 유사한 분포 형상을 보였으며, 극한단위수평지지력 분포 형태는 최상층지반과 중간층지반이 동일하고 최하층지반이 상이한 지반에서 다소 달라지는 분포형상을 보였으나, 다른경우에 있어서는 기본적으로 Prasad and Chari(1999)의 극한단위수평지지력 분포형상과 유사한 것으로 나타났다.

매입말뚝의 수평저항 특성을 고찰하기 위하여 매입말뚝에 대한 수평재하시험을 실시하여 수평하중과 수평변위관계를 분석하였다. 말뚝수평재하시험은 시멘트 밀크가 말뚝매입길이의 50%, 70%, 100%로 주입된 6개의 말뚝에 대하여 실시하였다. 시멘트 밀크의 주입비(시멘트 밀크 주입길이/말뚝의 길이)는 매입말뚝의 수평변위, 항복하중, 수평지지력에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 시멘트 밀크의 주입비가 증가할수록 매입말뚝의 수평변위가 발생되기 시작하는 위치는 지표면에 가까워지며 말뚝의 수평변위는 감소한다. 그리고 말뚝의 수평지지력과 항복하중은 시멘트 밀크 주입비가 증가할 수록 크게 나타났다. 시멘트 밀크 주입비가 1인 매입말뚝의 항복하중과 극한수평지지력은 시멘트 밀크 주입비가 0.5인 경우보다 약 2~3배 정도 크게 나타났다.

To evaluate inelastic seismic responses of multi-span-bridge, the equivalent single-degree-of-freedom (ESDOF) methods and the lateral load distributions are applied to the capacity spectrum method(CSM). From the pushover analysis results using the four ESDOF methods and the six types lateral load distributions, the ESDOF method more than lateral load distribution is found to have an important influence upon the pushover analysis. The effects of the higher mode on the bridge seismic behaviors are also increased as the number of pier increase. Therefore, it can be concluded that lateral load distributions and ESDOF methods for reflection of higher mode effects should be considered in the seismic analysis of the bridge structural.

Fourteen model pile load tests using a calibration chamber and instrumented model pile were preformed to investigate the variation of the behaviors of driven piles in sands with soil and lateral cyclic loading conditions. Results of the model tests showed that the first loading cycle generated more than 70% of the pile head rotation developed for 50 lateral loading cycles. Lateral cyclic loading also made an increase of the ultimate lateral load capacity of piles for $K_0$=0.4 and an decrease for $K_0$ higher than 0.4. Higher portion of the increase or decrease in the ultimate lateral load capacity by lateral cyclic loading was generated for the first loading cycle due to densification of loosening of the soil around the pile by lateral cyclic loading. It was also observed that a two-way cyclic loading caused higher ultimate lateral load capacity of driven piles than a one-way cyclic loading. When the pile was in the ultimate state, the maximum bending moment developed in the pile increased with increasing $K_0$ value of soil and was insensitive to the magnitude and number of lateral cyclic loading.

해상구조물을 지지하는 말뚝기초는 바람, 조류, 파랑 등의 영향으로 횡방향 반복하중을 지배적으로 받는다. 본 연구에서는 횡방향 반복하중이 말뚝의 횡방향 극한지지력에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위하여, 서로 다른 세 가지 상대밀도(40%, 70%, 90%)로 조성된 모래지반에서 모형말뚝시험을 수행하였다. 상대밀도 40%로 조성 된 모래지반에서는 횡방향 반복재하 시 말뚝 주변 지반이 조밀해짐에 따라 횡방향 극한지지력이 증가하였다. 반면, 상대밀도 70%와 90%로 조성 된 모래지반에서는 횡방향 반복재하 시 말뚝 주변 지반의 교란효과로 인하여 횡방향 극한지지력이 감소하였다. 이러한 횡방향 극한지지력의 증가 및 감소효과는 횡방향 반복하중의 크기가 커질수록 더욱 명확하게 나타났으며, 모래지반의 포화 여부에는 큰 영향을 받지 않았다. 모형시험 결과를 활용하여 모래지반의 상대밀도, 횡방향 반복하중의 크기에 따른 말뚝의 횡방향 극한지지력 산정 식을 제안하였고, 이를 횡방향 반복하중을 지배적으로 받는 말뚝의 설계 시 활용 가능하도록 하였다.
