This paper describes a proposal for evaluation load carrying capacity of reinforced concrete slab bridges considering the moment redistribution. Recognition of redistribution of moments can be important because it permits a more realistic appraisal of the actual load-carrying capacity of a structure, thus leading to improved economy. In addition, it permits the designer to modify, within limits, the moment diagrams for which members are to be designed. The predicted results shows that moment redistribution are different from estimated by the current KCI, ACI 318-02, EC2 provisions, and propose reasonable load carrying capacity of the reinforced concrete slab bridge.

The goal of this study is to analyze the effects of geometries of mortise and tenon on moment carrying capacity of the "sagae" connection. Effects of different tenon widths, mortise depths of connection from the top and bottom beams on stress distribution were investigated using the finite element method (FEM). Critical normal and shear stresses occurred at the reentrant corner from the mortise of the bottom beam. The maximum moment carrying capacity of the sagae connection from the FEM was validated from the results of experimental test. Maximizing moment carrying capacity of the sagae connection was found when the tenon width and mortise depth from the two beams were 40 mm and 60 mm, respectively.

Progressive Collapse Method (PCM) has been broadly applied to predict moment-carrying capacity of a hull girder, however accuracy of PCM has not been much studied. Accuracy of PCM is known to be dependent on how Load-Shortening and -Elongation (LSE) curve of a structural units are well predicted. This paper presents a new procedure to determine LSE datum based on box girder Finite Element Analyses (FEAs) instead of using finite element model of stiffened panels. To verify reliability of FEA results, the simple box girder collapse test results are compared with FEA results of same box girders. It reveals one frame-based box girder model is sufficiently accurate in terms of ultimate strengths of the box girders. After extracting LSE data from the box girders, PCM-based moment-carrying capacities are compared with those from FEAs of the box girders. PCM results are found to be equivalent to FEAs in terms of moment-carrying capacity if accurate LSE data are secured. The new procedure is applied to well-known 1/3 scaled frigate full section. Very excellent moment-carrying capacity of frigate hull section is obtained from PCM with LSE data from box girder FEAs.

본 논문에서는 1편에서 얻어진 온도분포와 박리시간이력을 이용하여 지하박스구조물의 열응력을 산정하고 이에 기반한 열모멘트를 산청하였다. 또한 이때의 온도분포를 바탕으로 구조물의 열적비선형성을 고려한 극한모멘트를 산정하여 구조물의 내하력을 산정하였다. 그 결과 상부슬래브의 부모멘트 구간은 단면의 온도경사에 의해서 발생하는 열모멘트에 의해 지배받는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 정모멘트 구간은 박리에 의해 화염에 노출된 철근의 항복응력에 의해 지배받는 것으로 나타났다.

A comparative experimental study of prestressed continuous steel-concrete composite beams was carried out. Two continuous composite beams were tested, one of which was plain continuous steel-concrete composite beam, while the other was a composite beam prestressed with external tendons. Cracking behavior and the load carrying capacity of the beams were investigated experimentally. Full plasticity was developed in the mid-span section each beam, the maximum moments attained at the internal support sections however were governed by local buckling which was related to the slenderness of composite section. It was found that in hogging moment regions, the ultimate resistance of an externally prestressed composite beam would be governed by either distortional lateral buckling or local buckling, or interactive mode of these two buckling patterns. The results show that exerting prestressing on a continuous composite beam with external tendons will increase the extent of internal force and moment redistribution in the beam. The influences of local and distortional buckling on the behaviors of the composite continuous beams are discussed. The Moment redistribution and the load carrying capacity of the prestressed continuous composite beams are evaluated, and it is found that at the ultimate state, the moment redistribution in the prestrssed continuous composite beams is greater than that in non-prestressed composite beams.

Portal frame structures, made up of cold-formed steel trusses, are increasingly being used for lightweight building construction. A novel pin-jointed moment connector, called the Howick Rivet Connector (HRC), was developed and tested previously in T-joints and truss assemblage to determine its reliable strength, stiffness and moment resisting capacity. This paper presents an experimental study on the HRC, in moment resisting cold-formed steel trusses. The connection method is devised where intersecting truss members are confined by a gusset connected by HRCs to create a rigid moment connection. In total, three large scale experiments were conducted to determine the elastic capacity and cyclic behaviour of the gusseted truss moment connection comprising HRC connectors. Theoretical failure loads were also calculated and compared against the experimental failure loads. Results show that the HRCs work effectively at carrying high shear loads between the members of the truss, enabling rigid behaviour to be developed and giving elastic behaviour without tilting up to a defined yield point. An extended gusset connection has been proposed to maximize the moment carrying capacity in a truss knee connection using the HRCs, in which they are aligned around the perimeter of the gusset to maximize the moment capacity and to increase the stability of the truss knee joint.

Previous studies have suggested the maximum experimental story shear force of beam-column joint frame does not reach its theoretical value due to beam-column joint failure when the column-to-beam moment capacity ratio was close to 1.0. It was also pointed out that under a certain amount of axial force, an axial collapse and a sudden decrease of lateral load-carrying capacity may occur at the joint. Although increasing joint transverse reinforcement could improve the lateral load-carrying capacity and axial load-carrying capacity of beam-column joint frame, the conditions considering varying axial force were still not well investigated. For this purpose, 7 full-scale specimens with no-axial force and 14 half-scale specimens with varying axial force are designed and subjected to static loading tests. Comparing the experimental results of the two types of specimens, it has indicated that introducing the varying axial force leads to a reduction of the required joint transverse reinforcement ratio which can avoid the beam-column joint failure. For specimens with varying axial force, to prevent beam-column joint failure and axial collapse, the lower limit of joint transverse reinforcement ratio is acquired when given a column-to-beam moment capacity ratio.

The steel-concrete double composite girder in the negative flexural region combines an additional concrete slab to the steel bottom flange to prevent the local steel buckling, however, the additional concrete slab may lower down the neutral axis of the composite section, which is a sensitive factor to the tensile stress restraint on the concrete deck. This is actually of great importance to the structural rationality and durability, but has not been investigated in detail yet. In this case, a series of 5.5 m-long composite girder specimens were tested by negative bending, among which the bottom slab configuration and the longitudinal reinforcement ratio in the concrete deck were the parameters. Furthermore, an analytical study concerning about the influence of bottom concrete slab thickness on the cracking and sectional bending-carrying capacity were carried out. The test results showed that the additional concrete at the bottom improved the composite sectional bending stiffness and bending-carrying capacity, whereas its effect on the concrete crack distribution was not obvious. According to the analytical study, the additional concrete slab at the bottom with an equivalent thickness to the concrete deck slab may provide the best contributions to the improvements of crack initiation bending moment and the sectional bending-carrying capacity. This can be applied for the design practice.

An experimental investigation of lightweight aggregate and foamed concrete contribution to the ultimate strength capacity of square and rectangular steel tube sections is presented in this study. Thirty-four simply supported beam specimens, 1000-mm long, filled with lightweight aggregate and foamed concretes were tested in pure flexural bending to calculate the ultimate moment capacity. Normal concrete-filled steel tubular and bare steel sections of identical dimensions were also tested and compared to the filled steel sections. Theoretical values of ultimate moment capacity of the beam specimens were also calculated in this study for comparison purposes. The test results showed that lightweight aggregate and foamed concrete significantly enhance the load carrying capacity of steel tubular sections. Furthermore, it can be concluded from this study that lightweight aggregate and foamed concretes can be used in composite construction to increase the flexural capacity of the steel tubular sections.

교량의 내하력을 평가할 때 수행되는 구조해석은 재하시험을 통한 구조물의 실제거동과 유사한 거동특성을 구현하여야 되나 지점의 거동특성, 구조해석시 모델링 방법, 재하시험의 오류, 단면손상에 따른 강도 및 강성변화 등으로 인해 그렇지 못하는 경우가 있다. 특히, 교량받침이 손상하였거나 설치되지 않아 받침의 기능수행이 미비한 교량에서 이를 고려하지 않고 일률적으로 모델링을 하는 경우에는 이러한 문제가 더욱 심화될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 단일보의 내민구간을 구속시켜 얻어진 실측처짐($\delta$실측)과 비구속상태에서의 계산처짐($\Delta$계산)과의 차이값인 $\Delta{\delta}$으로부터 얻어진 지점모멘트를 구조해석모델에 작용시켜 실제거동과 유사한 해석결과를 얻었다. 이에 따라 실제 공용중인 교량을 대상으로 지점의 구속조건을 고려하여 내하력을 평가한 결과 기존 방법에 의한 내하력에 비해 15~19% 적게 평가되었다.
