본 연구에서는 철도교의 세로보 절취부에 피로균열이 발생 하였을 때 이에 대한 적절한 보수 보강 방법을 연구하기 위하여 실제로 피로균열이 발생한 철도교를 연구대상으로 실물크기의 가로보-세로보 바닥틀 모형을 제작하고, 세로보의 절취부 및 균열부에 스톱 홀 보수, 덧댐판 보강, 연결판 보강, 브라켓 보강 등 보수 보강 방법을 적용하여 실내실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 제일 효과적인 보강 방법으로는 세로보의 상부플랜지와 하부플랜지에 연결판과 브라켓을 설치하는 것이고, 균열 선단에 스톱 홀을 뚫는 방법은 보조적인 방법으로 사용할 수 있다는 결론을 얻었다. 그리고 균열 길이가 어느 정도 길 경우에는 복부판에 덧댐판을 설치할 필요가 있다.

Many strengthening methods are introduced and used to rehabilitate existing structures. However, both theoretical background and application techniques are not. One of the most popular methods is bonded plate method using either steel plate or carbon plate. For bonded plate method, bonding at the end of the plate is the most important properties. In this study, a method to reduce the stress distribution at the end of the bonded plate is found and tested. The results showed that the proposed end anchoring method is effective.

Strengthening a damaged structure by bonding steel plate on the surface of cracked structural members have been widely accepted for strengthening the structural components Recently, however, caron fiber sheets have been developed in order to achive more effective way of strengthening damaged structures due to their superior material properties to those of conventionally used steel plates in terms of their lighter unit weight and higher tensile strength. It has been reported that when both methods are applied to a damaged beam element, flexural strength and its stiffness of a beam increase and the rate of crack development as well as crack width and edflection under service loads are reduced, In this study some experiments are performed in order to comparetively observe the structural properties of the damaged beams which are either strengthened with different lengths of steel plates or with carbon sheets on the crack propagation, failure mechanisms, and load-deflection charateristics under the fatigue loadings.

Open-Steel-Plate-Girder railway bridges, in general, have plain concrete gravity pier without piles at foundations. Such piers are vulnerable to be overturned against braking forces and ground shakings during an earthquake. Thus, this study suggests a strengthening method using earth anchors to improve the resistance of plain concrete gravity piers to the overturn of themselves. Also, a filed test was performed for the as-built and the strengthened pier and the test results were compared to assess the strengthening effect. The earth anchors increased the ultimated capacity for the pier's overturn. Finally, a FE analysis was conducted using nonlinear elements for soil to understand the distribution of the soil stresses for the as-built and the strengthened pier.

Although being one of the most popular strengthening techniques in reinforced concrete beams, the use of steel plates bonded to the soffit raises problems of ductility. This study aims at investigating the influence of the use of perforated steel plates instead of solid steel plates on the ductility of reinforced concrete beams. A total of nine reinforced concrete beams were tested. In addition to an unplated beam, eight beams with perforated steel plates of two different thicknesses (3 mm and 6 mm) were subjected to monotonic loading. Effect of bonding the plates to the beams with anchor bolts and with additional side plates bonded to the sides of the beam with and without anchors is also investigated. The use of bolts in addition to epoxy was found to greatly contribute to the ductility and energy absorption capacity of the beams, particularly in specimens with thick plates (6 mm) and the use side plates in addition to the bottom plate was found to be ineffective in increasing the ductility of a concrete beam unless the side plates are attached to the beam with anchors bolts. The thickness of the plate was found to have little effect on the bending rigidity of the beam.

The composite plate to upgrade structures and, in particular, to extend the lives of reinforced concrete beams has wide applications. One of the main aspects of the bonded strengthening technology is the stress analysis of the reinforced structure. In particular, reliable evaluation of the adhesive shear stress and of the stress in the composite plates is mandatory in order to predict the beam's failure load. In this paper, a finite element analysis is presented to calculate the stresses in the reinforced beam under mechanical loads. The numerical results was compared with the analytical approach, and a parametric study was carried out to show how the maximum stresses have been influenced by the material and geometry parameters of the composite beam.

The FRP plate or sheet bonding technology was widely used for strengthening deficient RC structures. The strengthened structure using FRP bonding scheme, however, experience the complex interfacial behaviour which is difficult to predict. Therefore, the unbonded scheme using some anchorage device can be is an alternative for more reliable design. In this study, wedge-type anchor for FRP plate is developed for the unbonded flexural strengthening scheme. Some parameter study using 2D finite element method is performed. The analysis parameters are taken as wedge-guide friction coefficients, wedge- FRP ,.friction coefficient and wedge inclination angle. Based on the parameter study, more efficient anchors are designed and tested. The test result show that the developed anchor assure about $80\%$ FRP strength, which is higher performance than typical bonding scheme. Last, 3D finite element analysis is performed.

Recently, Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plats are widely used to strength the RC beams. But the behaviour of the RC beams which is strengthened with the CFRP is not clearly defined yet. So, this experimental study was carried out for reinforced concrete beams with epoxy-bonded CFP plates. This study is selected experimental variables which are strengthening plate length, pre-loading before reinforcement and the method of anchoring the plate ends. This study investigates was strengthening effect of the RC beams by adhesion of the CFRP, and CFRP as to the respective variables.

Strengthening by bonded CFRP sheet/plate onto the surface has been generally used for the R.C. beams. The strengthening efficiency of this system depends on the performance of the adhesive interlace between the beam and the CFRP, and the interlace often causes unexpected failure. In this paper, an unbonding system is proposed with prestressed CFRP. Finite element analysis has been conducted using DIANA for the R.C. beams strengthened by prestressing the unbonded CFRP plate. The results of analysis were compared with those of experiment.

The strengthening of reinforced concrete structures using externally bonded steel or advanced fibre reinforced plastic (FRP) composites is becoming increasingly common. A key factor affecting the behaviour and reliability of such strengthened structures is the bond strength between the steel or FRP plate and the concrete substrate. Several different experimental set-ups have previously been used to determine bond strength. This paper presents a careful finite element analysis of the stress distributions in these test set-ups. Results show that stress distributions can be significantly different for different set-ups, for similar materials and geometry.
