본 연구에서는 HSA800 60mm 강재의 SAW 용접성 및 이음성능을 확인하기 위해 후열처리 1시간과 2시간에 대한 SAW 공시체를 제작하여 9종의 시험을 실시하였다. 용접부 충격시험, 굽힘시험, 경도시험, 매크로조직시험, 마이크로조직시험 결과 SAW PH1 및 PH2는 양호한 용접부로 나타났으나, 화학성분시험 결과 P성분이 KS를 만족하지 못하였다. 용접부 평판 및 봉형 인장시험결과 SAW PH1에 비하여 PH2의 기계적 특성이 양호하게 나타났기 때문에 SAW의 경우 후열처리는 2시간을 권장한다.

Fatigue tests and numerical analysis were carried out to evaluate the fatigue performance at the U-rib to deck welded joint in steel box girder. Twenty specimens were tested corresponding to different penetration rates (80 and 100%) under fatigue bending load, and the fatigue strength was investigated based on hot spot stress (HSS) method. The detailed stress distribution at U-rib to deck welded joint was analyzed by the finite element method, as well as the stress intensity factor of weld root. The test results show that the specimens with fully penetration rate have longer crack propagation life due to the welding geometry, resulting in higher fatigue failure strength. The classification of FAT-90 is reasonable for evaluating fatigue strength by HSS method. The penetration rate has effect on crack propagation angle near the surface, and the 1-mm stress below weld toe and root approves to be more suitable for fatigue stress assessment, because of its high sensitivity to weld geometry than HSS.

Due to the superior corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of TiAl alloy at high temperature, it has been utilized as a turbine wheel of a turbocharger. The dissimilar metallic bonding is usually applied to combine the TiAl turbine wheel with the SCM440 structural steel which is used as a driving shaft. In this study, the TiAl and SCM440 joint were fabricated by using a friction welding technique. During bonding process, to suppress the martensitic transformation and the formation of cracks, which might reduce a strength of the joints, Cu was used as an insert metal to relieve stress. As a result, the intermetallic compounds (IMCs) layer was observed at TiAl/Cu interface while no IMC formation was formed at SCM440/Cu interface. Since understanding of the IMCs effects on the mechanical performance of welded joint is also essential for ensuring the reliability and integrity of the turbocharger system, we estimated the nanohardness of welded joint region through nanoindentation. The relation between the microstructural feature and its mechanical property is discussed in detail.

This paper deals with experimental investigation and modeling of the static behavior of a novel RCS beam-column exterior joint. The studied joint detail is a through-column type in which an H steel profile totally embedded inside RC column is directly welded to the steel beam. The H steel profile was covered by two supplementary plates in the joint area in order to avoid the stirrups resisting shear in the joint area. Two full-scale through-column-type RCS joints were tested under static loading. The objectives of the tests were to examine the connection performance and to highlight the contribution of two supplementary plates on the shear resistance of the joint. A reliable nonlinear 3D finite element model was developed using ABAQUS software to predict the response and behavior of the studied RCS joint. An extensive parametric study was performed to investigate the influences of the stirrups, the encased profile length and supplementary plate length on the behavior of the studied RCS joint.

본 연구에서는 HSA800 후판 강재에 적합한 용접재를 선정하고자 휨-인장실험을 수행하였다. 본 연구 수행 당시 HSA800 강재에 적용가능한 용접재로 GMAW 용접재(외국산)와 FCAW 용접재(국내산) 두 가지가 추천되어 이들을 사용하였다. 선행연구인 표준인장실험 결과를 바탕으로 맞댐용접상세와 루트간격을 주요 실험변수로하여 실물크기의 보 실험을 통해 용접부의 성능을 평가하였다. 강도 측면에서 모멘트 및 플랜지 축력 전달에 대한 조건은 두 용접재 모두 만족하였으나 연성능력 측면에서 GMAW 용접재보다는 FCAW 용접재가 일관되고 우수한 거동을 보임이 실험적으로 확인되었다. 특히 GMAW 용접재는 용접효율과 작업성의 문제로 현장에서의 상향용접이 어려운 것으로 파악되었다. 같은 완전용입용접이라도 Single bevel보다는 V-groove가 안정적인 구조거동을 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 표준인장실험결과와 휨-인장실험결과를 토대로 HSA800 후판재의 용접상세 및 용접재를 제시하였다.

As bridge conditions in the United States continue to deteriorate, rapid bridge replacement procedures are needed. Decked precast prestressed concrete (DPPC) girders are used for rapid bridge construction because the bridge deck is precast with the girders eliminating the need for a cast-in-place slab. One of the concerns with using DPPC girders as a bridge construction option is the durability of the longitudinal joints between girders. The objectives of this paper were to propose a method to use a spring element modeling procedure for representing welded steel connector assemblies between adjacent girders in DPPC girder bridges, perform a preliminary study of bridge performance under multiple loading scenarios and bridge configurations, and discuss model flexibility for accommodating future field data for model verification. The spring elements have potential to represent the contribution of joint grout materials by altering the spring stiffness.

Full penetration welded steel moment-resisting frame (SMRF) structures with welded box sections are widely employed in steel bridges, where a large number of steel bridges have been in operation for over fifty years in Japan. Welding defects such as incomplete penetration at the beam-column connections of these existing SMRF steel bridge piers were observed during inspection. Previous experiments conducted by the authors' team indicate that gusset stiffeners (termed fillets in this study) at the beam-web-to-column-web joint of the beam-column connections may play an important role on the seismic performance of the connections. This paper aims to experimentally study the effect of the fillet radius on seismic performance of the connections with large welding defects. Four specimens with different sizes of fillet radii were loaded under quasi-static incremental cyclic loading, where different load-displacement relations and cracking behaviors were observed. The experimental results show that, as the size of the fillet radius increases, the seismic performance of the connections can be greatly improved.

단층 래티스 돔에 사용되는 접합부는 그 형태나 접합방법에 따라 다양한 거동 특성을 지닌다. 볼 조인트의 경우, 다루기 쉽고 현장 적용에 유리하지만, 강성과 내력이 약하기 때문에 장스팬의 확보에 있어서 불리하다. 용접 접합부는 볼 조인트에 비해 강성과 내력이 우수하고, 장스팬을 확보할 수 있지만, 용접 접합부에 관한 연구 및 실험은 드문 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 단층 래티스 돔에 적용 가능한 용접 접합부를 제안하고, 이를 기존접합부와의 비교하기 위한 실험을 수행하였다. 또한 제안된 접합부에 대해 삽입 플레이트의 길이, 두께, 여장을 변수로 하여 각각의 변수에 의한 실험체의 거동의 변화를 살펴보았다. 실험을 통한 결과를 토대로 하여 새로운 형태의 용접 접합부를 제안하고자 한다.

The weldability and joint performance were evaluated for newly developed 60kg/mm$\^$2/ steel which had low cold cracking susceptibility. The main results obtained were as follows; In case of quenched and tempered 60kg/mm$\^$2/ steels, it was very effective to improve weldability and joint performance by lowering carbon and Pcm level. Very small addition of about 0.001 to 0.002wt% boron exhibited an appreciable compensation effect on strength which was decreased by lowering carbon and Pcm level. As a result, the newly developed steel was able to be welded without preheating and exhibited superior joint performance to conventional steels.

In recent years, composite concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) members have been widely utilized in framed building structures like beams, columns, and beam-columns since they have significant advantages such as reducing construction time, improving the seismic performance, and possessing high ductility, strength, and energy absorbing capacity. This paper presents a new composite joint - the composite CFST beam-column joint in which the CFST member is used as the beam. The main components of the proposed composite joint are steel H-beams, CFST beams welded with the steel H-column, and a reinforced concrete slab. The steel H-beams and CFST beams are connected with the concrete slab using shear connectors to ensure composite action between them. The structural performance of the proposed composite joint was evaluated through an experimental investigation. A three-dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) model was developed to simulate this composite joint using the ABAQUS/Explicit software, and the accuracy of the FE model was verified with the relevant experimental results. In addition, a number of parametric studies were made to examine the effects of the steel box beam thickness, concrete compressive strength, steel yield strength, and reinforcement ratio in the concrete slab on the proposed joint performance.
