The remaining life estimation for the aged components in power plants as well as chemical plants are very important because mechanical properties of the components are degraded with time of service exposure in the high temperature. Since it is difficult to take specimens from the operating components to evaluate mechanical properties of components, accelerated aging technique are needed to estimate and analyse the material degradation. In the this study, test materials with 4 different degradation levels were prepared by isothermal aging heat treatment at $630^{\circ}C$. And tensile test, $k_{IC}$ test, hardness test and Scanning Electron Microscope analysis were performed in order to evaluate the degradation of 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steels.

The demand for FRPs that are corrosion-free and have an excellent tensile strength-to-weight ratio. However, there is a lack of research on the mechanical properties of FRP in the form of rebars, especially the changes in performance due to heating. Therefore, in this paper, 60 tensile and compression specimens of CFRP rebars with a diameter of 12 mm were fabricated and subjected to direct tensile and direct compression tests, and their performance was evaluated according to the heating temperature. It was found that as the heating temperature increases above 300 ℃, the performance decrease becomes larger due to the burning of epoxy. The compressive strength was found to be much lower than the tensile strength, but the modulus of elasticity was found to be the same in tension and compression.
