Owing to a landslide or embankment damage be caused by a localized torrential downpour and heavy snowfall resulted from recent abnormal climate, a slope stability is very important. This study is investigate a general slope reinforcement method and applicability improvement of soil nailing method utilized prototype loading test for the facing stiffness effect confirmation. A prototype loading test supplements general slope stability study by numerical analysis or laboratory test with a resonable analysis of slope structure.

Test methods by hydraulic oil or vehicular live load have been used for structural evaluation of prototype bridge. However it has been reported that the use of hydraulic jack has some disadvantages for the view of safety and economy, and the complete structural evaluation through each loading state can not be accomplished blocks is presented to overcome those demerits. To verify the application and safely of the use of concrete weight blocks during each loading state, it is applied to prototype deteriorated bridge. As a result, it could be evaluated the structural behavior completely using the concrete weight blocks

Prototype crushed-stone compaction pile(${\Phi}=700mm$) were constructed on specific test site. Static loading tests for crushed-stone compaction piles were performed. Based on the static loading test results, finite element analysis was performed using software PENTAGON 3D. Numerical analysis were done for the area replacement ratio($a_s$) of $20{\sim}70%$ and $a_s$ was varied as a step of 10%. In the single crushed-stone compaction pile, settlement was decreased as $a_s$ was increased. In the group pile, this tendency was similar. In the in-sit test and numerical analysis, as $a_s$ increased, the stress concentration ratio was increased. But $a_s$ in the numerical analysis were more than that of in-situ test, greatly.

Unlike the CFT retrofit method, The EPFT retrofit method, which fills the steel tube with engineering plastic, does not require a separate concrete forming work and is a lightweight seismic Retrofit Method. In this study, an prototype model of the EPFT was proposed, and to analyze the seismic performance, an independent specimens and a reinforced concrete column were fabricated to conduct a seismic performance test. As a result of loading test of the independent specimens, the strength was increased compared to the steel tube column without internal filling, and the ductility ratio did not significantly increase due to the falling off of the weld. As a result of loading test of the concrete reinforcement specimen, the strength, ductility ratio, and energy dissipation were increased, and the number of cracks by loading step decreased compared to the non-reinforced specimen.

This paper presents the drop performance test of the control rod assembly which is one of the main components strongly related to the safety of the prototype generation IV sodium-cooled fast reactor. To investigate the drop performance, a real-sized control rod assembly that was recently modified based on the drop analysis results was newly fabricated, and several free drop tests under different flow rate conditions were carried out. Then the results were compared with those obtained from the previous tests conducted on the conceptually designed control rod assembly to demonstrate the improvement in performance. Moreover, the drop performance tests under several types and magnitudes of seismic loadings were also conducted to investigate the effect of the seismic loading on the drop performance of the modified control rod assembly. The results showed that the effects of the type and magnitude of the seismic loading on the drop performance of the modified control rod assembly were not significant. Also, the drop time requirement was successfully satisfied, even under the seismic loading conditions.

The control rod assembly controls reactor power by adjusting its position during normal operation and shuts down chain reactions by its free drop under scram conditions. Therefore, the drop performance of the control rod assembly is important for the safety of a nuclear reactor. In this study, the drop performance of the conceptually designed control rod assembly for the prototype generation IV sodium-cooled fast reactor that is being developed at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute as a next-generation nuclear reactor was experimentally investigated. For the performance test, the test facility and test procedure were established first, and several free drop performance tests of the control rod assembly under different flow rate conditions were then carried out. Moreover, performance tests under several types and magnitudes of seismic loading conditions were also conducted to investigate the effects of seismic loading on the drop performance of the control rod assembly. The drop time of the conceptually designed control rod assembly for 0% of the tentatively designed flow rate was measured to be 1.527 seconds, and this agrees well with the analytically calculated drop time. It was also observed that the effect of seismic loading on the drop time was not significant.

Three types of model concrete with different mix ratios for 1/10 scale reinforced concrete model were made and tested to find the best solution for the simulation of mechanical characteristics of prototype concrete. Scaled reinforcing materials in diameter(D1.8) having similar con-figuration and mechanical properties with commercial deformed bars(D19) were prepared for 1/10 scale model tests of reinforced concrete structures. Two types of model test using D1.8 model reinforcing bars and model concrete, monotonic simple beam test and cyclic cantilever beam test, were performed to ensure and check the similitude of bond behavior between 1/10 scale model and prototype. The test results showed that the flexural behavior of 1/10 scale models can be simulated with accuracy enough for practical use in monotonic and cyclic loading test.

The weight reduction of carbody stl1lctures is of great concern in developing high speed tilting train for the normal operation of tilting system. The use of composite materials for the carbody structures has many advantages due to their excellent material propel1ies. In this paper, finite element analysis was conducted to verify the safety of the composite structures of Tilting Train eXpress(TTX). A train prototype with carbon/epoxy composite carbody was manufactured to perform static loading tests according to JIS E 7105. The loading tests were simulated by FE analysis to compare with the test results. To obtain more accurate and detailed result of stress distribution in local region of carbody, the submodeling approach was used. The submodeling analysis results showed the high levels of stress concentration occured on window frame part of TTX as the loading test results did.

본 연구는 풍화암에 근입된 영구 앵커의 극한인발력에 관한 연구를 수행하기 위하여 현장에서 실규모 인발시험을 실시한 실험 결과이다. 현장 실물 실험에서는 정착길이가 다른 4개의 앵커에 대한 하중-변위 곡선으로부터 극한인발력을 산정하였다. 또한, 앵커의 수용 여부를 결정하기 위해 단계별 최대하중에서 15분 동안의 크리프 시험을 실시하여 극한하중까지의 크리프치를 평가하였다. 그리고 풍화암에 근입된 영구 앵커의 파괴메카니즘을 규명하기 위해 지표면에 다이얼게이지를 설치하여 하중 변화에 따른 지반의 파괴 거동 범위를 측정하였다.

The small-scale models have been utilized for the prediction of inelastic behavior of reinforced concrete structures for several decades. The parameters that affect the similitude between the model and prototype are various. Among them, the effect of bond between the model reinforcement and the model concrete is one of the most important factors. The study reported herein is addressed to verifying this similitude in bond behavior. The simple beams which have the lap splice at the midspan were made and flexural tests were performed under two-point loading. The length of lap splice are varied from 0.4ld through 0.7ld and up to 1.0ld where ld is the development length of the reinforcement. The selected scales are 1/1, 1/5, 1/10 and 1/12. Two prototype specimens and three models were tested in addition to the associated material tests and the test results are compared from the viewpoint of similitude.
