The current study focuses on the assessment and interface response of reinforced concrete elements with composite materials (carbon fiber reinforced polymers-CFRPs, glass fiber reinforced polymers-GFRPs, textile reinforced mortars-TRM's, near surface mounted bars-NSMs). A description of the transfer mechanisms from concrete elements to the strengthening materials is conducted through analytical models based on failure modes: plate end interfacial debonding and intermediate flexural crack induced interfacial debonding. A database of 55 in total reinforced concrete columns (scale 1:1) is assembled containing elements rehabilitated with various techniques (29 wrapped with CFRP's, 5 wrapped with GFRP's, 4 containing NSM and 4 strengthened with TRM). The failure modes are discussed together with the performance level of each technique as well as the efficiency level in terms of ductility and bearing/ bending capacity. The analytical models' results are in acceptable agreement with the experimental data and can predict the failure modes. Despite the heterogeneity of the elements contained in the aforementioned database the results are of high interest and point out the need to incorporate the analytical expressions in design codes in order to predict the failure mechanisms and the limit states of bearing capacities of each technique.

콘크리트의 역학적거동은 다양한 종류의 균열의 발생과 전파에 의하여 영향을 받는다. 최근 고성능 콘크리트의 개발이 이루어지면서 계면파괴와 계면역에서의 균열양상에 대한 연구가 중요한 분야로 부각되고 있다. 탄성이며 균질한 재료에 적용되는 균열전파에 대한 규준은 계면역에서 균열이 진전하는 경우는 유효하지 않으며 이 경우에는 콘크리트에서 균열전파를 예측하기 위하여 구성재료들의 파괴인성과 그들 사이 계면의 파괴인성의상대적인 크기를 고려하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 계면균열선단에서 계면파괴역학변수인 에너지해방률과 하중위상각을 수치해석방법을 이용하여 구하는 방법과 계면에서의 균열전파의 예측을 위한 에너지해방률에 기초를 둔 파괴규준을 제안하였다. 계면역에서의 균열양상을 조사하기 위하여 계면균열을 가진 이상복합모델에 대한 실험과 수치해석연구를 수행하였으며 대체적으로 실험결과와 규준을 이용하여 예측한 결과가 서로 일치하는 결과를 얻었다.

This paper reports the experimental results of three through bolt beam-column connections under pure shear forces using modified push-out tests. The investigated specimens include extended end-plates and six through-bolts connecting square concrete-filled steel tubular column (S-CFST) to steel beams. The main goal of this study is to investigate if and how the mechanical shear connectors, such as steel angles and stud bolts, contribute to the shear transfer mechanisms in the steel-concrete interface of the composite column. The contribution of shear studs and steel angles to improve the shear resistance of steel-concrete interface in through-bolt connections was investigated using tests. The results showed that their contribution is not significant when the beam-column connection is included in the push-out tests. The specimens failed by pure shear of the long bolts, and the ultimate load can be predicted using the shear resistance of the bolts under shear forces. The predicted values of load allowed obtaining a good agreement with the tests results.

Steel plate bonding technique is most widely used in strengthening of existing concrete structures, but it has inherently a problem of the premature failure such as interface separation and rip off. So far, many studies have been arid out in the manner of laboratory tests for the reinforced concrete beams to find out he mechanism of the premature failure. However, in order to verify the characteristics of the premature failure, more reasonable local investigations are needed rather than such relatively global experimental works. In this study, therefore, the double lap test which simulate the pure shear loadings and the half beam tests which consider combined flexure-shear force have been done. There are, however, difficulties in getting the normal stress caused to premature failure, so that finite element analysis was performed, too. In numerical study, material nonlinearity was considered, and the interface element was applied to model the interface between steel plate and adhesive. From the results of experimental and numerical studies, a realistic failure criterion on the separation of steel plates has been derived.

The shear behavior of soil-concrete interface is mainly affected by the surface roughness of the two contact surfaces. The present research emphasizes on investigating the effect of roughness of soil-concrete interface on the interface shear behavior in two-layered laboratory testing samples. In these specially prepared samples, clay silt layer with density of $2027kg/m^3$ was selected to be in contact a concrete layer for simplifying the laboratory testing. The particle size testing and direct shear tests are performed to determine the appropriate particles sizes and their shear strength properties such as cohesion and friction angle. Then, the surface undulations in form of teeth are provided on the surfaces of both concrete and soil layers in different testing carried out on these mixed specimens. The soil-concrete samples are prepared in form of cubes of 10*10*30 cm. in dimension. The undulations (inter-surface roughness) are provided in form of one tooth or two teeth having angles $15^{\circ}$ and $30^{\circ}$, respectively. Several direct shear tests were carried out under four different normal loads of 80, 150, 300 and 500 KPa with a constant displacement rate of 0.02 mm/min. These testing results show that the shear failure mechanism is affected by the tooth number, the roughness angle and the applied normal stress on the sample. The teeth are sheared from the base under low normal load while the oblique cracks may lead to a failure under a higher normal load. As the number of teeth increase the shear strength of the sample also increases. When the tooth roughness angle increases a wider portion of the tooth base will be failed which means the shear strength of the sample is increased.

본 연구에서는 2번에 분리타설된 교량 슬래브의 휨 및 전단거동 특성에 대한 실험연구를 수행하였다. 분리타설된 슬래브의 거동은 구콘크리트의 표면상태, 다우웰 철근량 및 접착층의 부착강도에 의해 큰 영향을 받게 되므로, 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 변수를 변화시켜 실험을 수행하였다. 본 연구결과 초기균열이 발생할때까지는 콘크리트의 표면상태 및 다우웰 철근량에 따라 구조거동에 큰 차이를 보이지 않으나, 극한하중상태에 도달하면 구콘크리트의 표면상태가 양호하고 아크릴수지 처리와 다우웰 철근이 많을수록 분리타설된 슬래브는 일체로 거동하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 본 연구결과는 앞으로 교량에서 2층으로 분리타설하는 철근콘크리트 슬래브의 설계를 위한 유용한 자료와 토대를 제시하고 있다.

The present work aims at investigating the effects of using various fine mineral additions as partial replacement to Portland cement on the tribological properties of concrete. To achieve this goal, concrete mixtures were prepared with different percentages (10, 20 and 30%) of limestone fillers (LF) and natural pozzolana (NP), and (20, 40 and 60%) of blast furnace slag (BFS). The interface yield stress (τ0) and viscous constants (η) that allow characterizing friction at the concrete-pipe wall interface were determined using a rotational tribometer. In addition, the compositions of the boundary layers that formed in the pumping pipes of the different concretes under study were also identified and analyzed. The experimental results obtained showed that the concretes studied have a linear tribological behavior that can be described by the Bingham model. Furthermore, the use of different mineral additions, especially limestone fillers and blast furnace slags, even at high rates, had a beneficial effect on the optimization of the volume of paste present in the boundary layer, which made it possible to significantly reduce the viscous constant of concrete. However, a maximum rate of 10% of natural pozzolana was recommended to achieve tribological properties that are favorable to the pumpability of concrete.

The reinforced concrete lining in the hydraulic pressure tunnel tends to crack during the water-filling process. The lining will be detached from the surrounding rock due to the inner water exosmosis along concrete cracks. From the previous research achievements, the cohesive element is widely adopted to simulate the concrete crack but rarely adopted to simulate the lining-rock interface. In this study, the zero-thickness cohesive element with hydro-mechanical coupling property is not only employed to simulate the traditional concrete crack, but also innovatively introduced to simulate the lining-rock interface. Combined with the indirect-coupled method, the hydro-mechanical coupling algorithm of the reinforced concrete lining in hydraulic pressure tunnels is proposed and implemented in the finite element code ABAQUS. The calculated results reveal the cracking mechanism of the reinforced concrete lining, and match well with the observed engineering phenomenon.

In this study, the influence of the lateral pressure on the interface shear transfer of concrete has been investigated experimentally. A total of 21 specimens has been tested at the laboratory. The lateral pressure intensities in the tests have been taken as 0, 7, 14, 28, and 35kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ for the specimens, the compressive strengths of which are either 180, 400 or 550kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. The linear regression analysis based on the test results has shown relatively good agreements with the values given in the shear friction theory.
