In this article, using finite element method of analysis (FEM), behavior of the endplate moment connection subjected to axial force and bending moment is investigated. In the FEM model, all the nonlinear characteristics such as material, geometry, as well as contact have been included. First, in order to verify the numerical model of the connection, an analysis of the endplate moment connection conducted without the application of the axial force. Results obtained from FEM indicating a close and good correlation with the experimental results. Then to investigate the influence of the axial forces, the connections subjected to axial forces as well as the bending moment are analyzed. To observe the overall effect of these actions, the momentaxial force interaction diagrams are drawn. It is observed that the presence of axial force even in a small value can change the behavior of the connection significantly. It is also shown that the axial forces can alter the failure mode of the connection; and therefore it could result in a different than the predicted moment capacity of the connection.

This paper describes the development of the calibration system for a multi-axis force/moment sensor and its uncertainty evaluation. This calibration system can generate the continuous forces (${\pm}Fx,\;{\pm}Fy$ and ${\pm}Fz$) and moments (${\pm}Mx,\;{\pm}My$ and ${\pm}Mz$). Many kinds of multi-axis force/moment sensors in industries should be carried out the characteristic test or the calibration with the calibration system that can generate the forces and the moments. The calibration systems have been already developed are the disadvantages of the low capacity, the generation of step forces(10N, 20N ...) and step moments(1Nm, 2Nm ...) with weights, the high coasts in manufacture and so on. In this paper, the calibration system for a multi-axis force/moment sensor that can generate the continuous three forces and three moments was developed. Their ranges are $0{\sim}2000N$ in all force-directions and $0{\sim}400Nm$ in all moment-directions. And the system was evaluated in the expanded relative uncertainty. They were ${\pm}0.0004$ in all forces ${\pm}Fx,\;{\pm}Fy$ and ${\pm}Fz$, and ${\pm}0.0004$ in all moments ${\pm}Mx,\;{\pm}My$ and ${\pm}Mz$.

One of the most promising ways through which a steel moment frame may attain high energy dissipating capability is to trim off a portion of the beam flanges near the column face. This type of moment connection, known as Reduced Beam Section (RBS) connection, has notable superiority in comparison with other moment connection types. As the result of the advantages of RBS moment connection, it has widely being used in practice. In spite of the good hysteretic behaviour, an RBS beam suffers from an undesirable drawback, which is local and lateral instability of the beam. The instability in the RBS beam reduces beam load-carrying capacity. This paper aims to investigate key issues influencing cyclic behaviour of RBS beams. To this end, a numerical analysis was conducted on a series of steel subassemblies with various geometric properties. The obtained results together with the existing experimental data are used to study the instability of RBS beams. A new slenderness concept is presented to control an RBS beam for combined local and lateral instability. This concept is in good agreement with the numerical and experimental results. Finally, a model is developed for the prediction of the magnitude of moment degradation owing to the instability of an RBS beam.

Soft-story buildings have bottom stories much less rigid than the top stories and are susceptible to earthquake damage. Therefore, the seismic design specifications need strict design considerations in such cases. In this paper, a four-story building was investigated as a case study and the effects of X-braces elimination in its lower stories studied. In addition, the possibility of replacement of the X-braces in soft-stories with equivalent moment resisting frame inspected in two different phases. In first phase, the stiffness of X-braces and equivalent moment-resisting frames evaluated using classic equations. In final phase, diagonals removed from the lowest story to develop a soft-story and replaced with moment resisting frames. Then, the seismic stiffness variation of moment-resisting frame evaluated using nonlinear static and dynamic analyses. The results show that substitution of braced frames with an equivalent moment-resisting frame of the same stiffness increases story drift and reduces energy absorption capacity. However, it is enough to consider the needs of building codes, even using equivalent moment resisting frame instead of X-Braces, to avoid soft-story stiffness irregularity in seismic design of buildings. Besides, soft-story development in the second story may be more critical under strong ground excitations, because of interaction of adjacent stories.

구조설계기준에서, 슬래브의 최대 펀칭전단응력은 연직하중에 의한 직접전단과 불균형모멘트에 의한 편심전단의 조합응력으로 규정하고 있다. 이것은 슬래브에 작용하는 펀칭전단응력에 불균형모멘트의 영향을 반영한 것이다. 그러나 부재의 저항성능 즉 펀칭전단강도에는 슬래브의 불균형모멘트강도 영향을 전혀 고려하고 있지 않다. 본 논문에서는 불균형모멘트-펀칭전단 상관모델을 제시하였다. 상관모델에서 불균형모멘트와 펀칭전단의 하중영향 및 저항성능 관계는 2차원으로 표현된다. 상관모델을 이용하여, "슬래브의 펀칭전단강도를 결정하는데 있어 불균형모멘트강도를 어떻게 반영할 것인지"에 대한 방안을 제시하였다. 또한, 전단보강재가 불균형모멘트강도에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 이를 구조설계에 반영하기 위한 유효폭확대계수의 적용을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서 제시한 상관모델은 하중과 전단보강재에 따른 펀칭전단과 불균형모멘트 강도를 실제 거동에 가깝게 정의할 수 있고 슬래브의 휨지배파괴 또는 전단지배파괴의 최종적인 파괴모드를 쉽게 예측할 수 있어 슬래브의 구조적 거동을 예측하는데 매우 효과적이다.

PHC 말뚝은 우수한 축하중 저항 능력에 비해 상대적으로 전단 및 휨 저항 성능이 낮은 단점을 가지고 있다. 이 연구의 목적은 기존 PHC 말뚝의 단점을 개선할 목적으로 개발된 중공부에 내부충전 콘크리트, 축방향 철근과 전단 철근으로 보강한 합성 PHC 말뚝(ICP 말뚝)의 휨성능을 평가하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 기존의 교대 설계사례로 부터 말뚝에 발생하는 축력과 휨모멘트를 조사한 후, ICP 말뚝 계산을 위하여 개발한 축력-휨모멘트 상관관계 프로그램을 이용하여 허용 축력과 휨모멘트가 발생하는 부재력을 만족하도록 ICP 말뚝을 설계하였다. 설계에 따라 ICP 말뚝을 제작하였으며, 휨실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과 ICP 말뚝은 PHC 말뚝에 비하여 약 45% 큰 휨내력을 나타내었다. 또한 계산에 의해 예측한 ICP 말뚝 휨강도의 25%를 허용 휨모멘트로 취할 경우, 약 4.5의 안전율을 갖는 것으로 평가되었다.

I형강 접합 절곡 강합성 바닥판은 절곡 바닥판내에 I형강을 매입하여 기존의 현장타설 철근콘크리트바닥판보다 경량화되고 하중저항성능 및 시공성을 향상시킨 강합성 바닥판이다. 현재 일반적인 철근콘크리트 구조물의 유효휨강성에 대한 계산은 도로교설계기준 및 ACI에서 제안하고 있는 방법을 사용하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 도로교설계기준 및 ACI에서 제안된 유효휨강성에 대한 산정 방법과 CEB-FIP MC-90에서 제안하고 있는 방법을 사용해 I형강 접합절곡강합성 바닥판의 유효휨강성을 계산하고 그에 대한 적합성을 평가하였다. 또한 전단연결재의 유 무, 단면의 변화, 부재연결 그리고 일반철근콘크리트보와의 비교등 4가지 실험변수를 두고 총 5개의 실험체를 제작 실험하였고 실험결과와 이론식으로 산정된 휨강성값을 비교,평가하여 실험변수에 따른 휨강성의 변화를 분석하였다. 실험결과 CEB-FIP MC-90에서 제안하고 있는 방법이 ACI에서 제안하고 있는 방법보다 만족스러운 결과를 나타냈으며, 전단연결재가 있고 콘크리트와 바닥판의 부착면적이 많은 경우에 하중저항 성능과 휨강성이 높게 나타났다.

FRP 보강단면의 공칭휨모멘트 산정에 강도설계법의 적용 타당성을 검토하기 위하여 5종류의 콘크리트 압축응력-변형률 모델을 적용하였으며, 컴퓨터 프로그램 언어를 이용하여 보강단면 휨해석을 실시하였다. 그 결과 보강단면의 휨해석에 콘크리트 압축응력-변형률 모델은 거의 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 콘크리트 압축변형률이 0.003일 때, 휨해석으로 산정된 보강단면의 휨모멘트와 강도설계법으로 산정된 공칭휨모멘트는 거의 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 보강단면의 인장철근비, FRP비, FRP 파단변형률, 콘크리트 압축변형률 등이 상대적으로 낮을수록, 강도설계법은 보강단면의 휨성능을 과대평가하는 것으로 해석결과에 나타났다.

Corrosion of the headed studs shear connectors is an important factor in the reduction of the durability and mechanical properties of the steel-concrete composite structure. In order to study the effect of stud corrosion on the mechanical properties in the negative moment region of steel-concrete composite beams, the corrosion of stud was carried out by accelerating corrosion method with constant current. Static monotonic loading was adopted to evaluate the cracking load, interface slip, mid-span deflection, and ultimate bearing capacity of four composite beams with varying corrosion rates of headed studs. The effect of stud corrosion on the stiffness of the composite beam's hogging moment zone during normal service stage was thoroughly examined. The results indicate that the cracking load decreased by 50% as the corrosion rate of headed studs increase to 10%. Meanwhile, due to the increase of interface slip and mid-span deflection, the bending stiffness dropped significantly with the same load. In comparison to uncorroded specimens, the secant stiffness of specimens with 0.5 times ultimate load was reduced by 25.9%. However, corrosion of shear studs had no obvious effect on ultimate bending capacity. Based on the experimental results and the theory of steel-concrete interface slip, a method was developed to calculate the bending stiffness in the negative bending moment region of composite beams during normal service stage while taking corrosion of headed studs into account. The validity of the calculation method was demonstrated by data analysis.

This paper considers a discrete-time queueing system with variable service capacity. Using the supplementary variable method and the generating function technique, we compute the joint probability distribution of queue length and remaining service time at an arbitrary slot boundary, and also compute the distribution of the queue length at a departure time.
