FRP has been used very much as high strength core materials for insulators because of its high strength and good insulation properties. The fiber orientation of FRP has a great effect on FRP strength because the strength of FRP mainly depends on the strength of fiber. In this study, compression and bending stress were simulated along to the orientation of glass fiber. In addition, FRP was made by pultrusion and filament winding method. The compression and flexural strength were measured. The tendency of compression and flexural strength according to the fiber orientation of practical measured value of FRP was similar to simulated results.

Analytical and numerical modeling of soft or problematic soils stabilized with lime and cement require a number of soil parameters which are usually obtained from expensive and time-consuming laboratory experiments. The high shear strength of lime and cement stabilized soils make it extremely difficult to obtain high quality laboratory data in some cases. In this study, an alternative method is proposed, which uses the unconfined compressive strength and estimating functions available in literature to evaluate the shear strength parameters of the treated materials. The estimated properties were applied in finite element model to determine which estimating function is more appropriate for lime and cement treated granular soils. The results show that at the mid-range strength of the stabilized soils, most of applied functions have a good compatibility with laboratory conditions. However, application of some functions at lower or higher strengths would lead to underestimation or overestimation of the unconfined compressive strength.

The use of the current ACI 318 stress block parameters has been reported to provide unconservative estimations of the moment capacities for high-strength concrete columns. Accordingly, several concrete stress block parameters have been recently proposed. This paper discusses various concrete stress block parameters for high-strength concrete and their influences on the code provisions. In order to adopt the proposed stress block parameters to the design code, it is necessary to understand the impact of the change of the stress block parameters on various aspects of the code provisions. For this purpose, the influence of using of different stress block parameters on the location of the neutral axis and the tensile strain in extreme tension steel as well as the axial and moment capacities are investigated. In addition, the influence on the prestressed concrete members is also elucididated.

Recently, many researchers are studying a high-strength concrete, composite materials and composite structures to build structures more economic and stable all over the world. For instance, there is CFTA(Concrete Filled and Tied Steel Tubular Arch) girder that applies an arch structure and a pre-stressed structure to CFT(Concrete Filled Steel Tubular) Structure to maximize the efficiency of structure and economic. In this study, linear-elastic behavior analysis of CFTA gider filled with high-strength concrete was performed by using ABAQUS 6.5-1 and also the result was analyzed.

Concrete has excellent characteristics as building material and functions relatively well; but it has many problems concerning too heavy weight of the structures. Accordingly, it is the assignment for study in the part of building materials to lighten and high strengthen the weight of concrete structures in order to improve those weak Points; and it seems one of the representative solutions to develop the high strength lightweight aggregate concrete. Based on the experimental results presented, the following conclusions are drawn. The concrete with unit weight of 1.96~2.03t/$m^{2}$, compressive strength of 322~431kgf/$cm^{2}$ was gained. So, it appears that the lightweight aggregate concrete will be useful for low unit weight and high strength lightweight aggregate concrete. In the end, to manufacture artificial lightweight aggregate concrete for construction work is necessary to develope artificial aggregate which has improved performances physically.

In this study, a novel Cu composite sheet with embedded high electric conduction path was developed as another alternative for the interconnect materials possessing high electrical conductivity as well as high strength. The Cu composite sheet was fabricated by forming Ag conduction paths not within the interior but on the surface of a high strength Cu substrate by damascene electroplating process. As a result, the electrical conductivity increased by 40% thanks to mesh type Ag conduction paths, while the ultimate tensile strength decreased by 20%. The interfacial fracture resistance of Cu composite sheet prepared by damascene electroplating increased by above 50 times compared to Cu composite sheet by conventional electroplating. For feasibility test for practical application, a leadframe for LED module was manufactured by a progressive blanking and piercing processes, and the blanked surface profile was evaluated as a function of the volume fraction of Ag conduction paths. As Ag conduction path became finer, pressing formability improved.

Tn order to develop springback control technology for high-strength steel sheets, several studies have been conducted: dome stretching test, stepped s-rail forming and springback measurement, and optimally shaped initial blank design. First, to find out the formability of TRIP60, dome stretching test was performed. Next, the stepped s-rail die, which was designed to form a channel type panel with large twist and wall curl, was manufactured and used to evaluate the effect of controlling forming variables, such as blank holding force and flange amount on the springback. Furthermore, new measurement method of the springback was introduced to define wall curl and twist in geometrically complex panels. Finally, the optimally shaped initial blank was employed to verify one of the best ways to control the springback in channel type. high-strength sheet panels.

Quenchable boron steel is a new type of high strength steel to reduce the weight of automobiles and maintain the safety conditions. Quenchable blanks can be hot-stamped and hardened in a water-cooled tool to achieve high strength. In this paper, new alloy for hot stamping is designed based on requirement of mechanical properties and two types of surface coating are investigated in viewpoints of oxidization and exfoliation. An automotive part of center pillar is manufactured by hot-stamping using Al-Si coated sheet. The performance of developed part is compared by static compression test and side impact crash test.

To investigate the influence of kinds of cement on state of high-strength concrete, this study deals with the engineering properties of high-strength concrete used 4 kinds of ordinary portland cement. The result of this study be summarized as follows. 1) It appeared that the change in fluidity with time differ with kinds of cement. 2) The difference of setting time was seen over 3 hours according to kinds of cement. Therefore, it must be examined about used materials when high-strength concrete is manufactured in the construction field.

In this study, flowability and strength on ultra high performance concrete(UHPC) pre-mixed binders with fiber was investigated. The flow of UHPC with pre-mixed binders was higher than that of seperate mixing conditions. The UHPC using PVA fiber with high specific surface area showed a low flow compared to steel fiber. An pre-mixing method led to improved strength of UHPC and low deviation of specimens due to dispersion effect of each materials.
