This paper focuses on the premature failure of RC beams bonded with FRP. A number of failure modes for RC beams bonded with FRP have been observed in numerous experimental studies during past decade. Particularly, Rip-off failure and Debonding failure were majority failure modes in RC beams bonded with FRP. Rip-off failure occurred at the plate end due to high interfacial shear and normal stresses however Debonding failure was caused by the yielding of reinforcing bar and the increasing of shear deformation in shear span. On the basis of premature failure mechanism in RC beams bonded with FRP, Basic strengthening length and Premature failure criteria were derived

The fully embedded composite truss beam is developed based on composite member, truss system before composite and beam system after composite. The proper design concept and method of the fully embedded composite truss beam are discussed. A bending test on the fully embedded composite truss beam with span length 25.0m is carried out to investigate the flexural behavior and ultimate strength of the developed structure up to failure. A good agreement between the measured and predicted results are observed.

Samples of kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus) grown in Malaysia were examined to determine the kraft pulp and paper-making properties of their bast (or bark) fibers. Using kraft pulping process showed that bast fibers were relatively easy to cook resulting good pulp yields in the range of 45-51 %. The bast pulp produced sheets with great density, tear index and dry zero-span breaking length. Kenaf bast fiber is considered promising for production of high-grade printing, writing and specialty papers.

Four reinforced concrete beams without shear reinforcement were tested statically up to failure to investigate the arch action in reinforced concrete beams. Major variable was the shear span to depth ratio varied from 2 to 4. Due to the reduction of internal moment arm length by the development of arch action, the measured steel tension was higher than the calculated steel tension.

From the analysis of shaft-bearing indeterminate system, moment and misalingment angle which was generated in bearing were determined. And the influence of span length between bearings on the fatigue life was established. The equation to estimate the cage rotational speed was proposed, and this equation was verified by the measuring of cage speed and shaft speed. And accoding to quasi-static analysis, the spinning speed of ball was determined.

The analysis of statically indeterminate bearing-shaft system was investigated. The moment loads and misalignment angles which were induced in the ball bearings were determined, and the influence of span length of this system on the moment loads and fatigue lives was identified. The sliding and spinning speeds between balls and raceways which affected the performance of ball bearing evaluated. The equation to estimate the cage speed of ball bearing under moment loads was proposed. This equation had been verified by the test results of measuring of cage speed, which was useful to the prediction of ball bearing under moment loads.

The buckling of the perforated web of a simply supported Η-section beam subjected to uniformly distributed load is examined by means of the finite element method. With buckling analysis results, the effect of this hole on the load carrying capacity of the beam with dimensions L/h = 11 and 13 ( L = span length h = web depth) is investigated. The parameters whose variation have been considered are hole size and location. It can be generally concluded that the buckling of the perforated web of an H-section beam is not affected seriously by the location of the perforation.

This study presents the stress evaluation equations of circular column-box beam connection in steel frame piers. FEM analysis were carried out for circular column-box beam connection. Analysis models were made for design parameters such as joint angle, span length-width ratio(L/B), sectional-area ratio(S=A/sub w/A/sub f/), and circular column-box beam stiffness ratio(Ic/Ib). Analysis results were compared to the existing equation. Based on analysis results the stress evaluation equations of circular column-box beam connection are proposed by regression analysis.

Field measurements were conducted to analysis dynamic characteristics of existing steel plate girder railway bridges without ballast. Three bridges which have 9m, 12m, 18m span length in Kyoung-Bu and Ho-Nam Line were selected for test. According to the each bridge, dynamic vertical deflections and vertical and horizontal accelerations were measured. Natural frequencies, vertical deflections and accelerations obtained from field tests were compared with the limit value specified in the UC, Japanese and Korean railway bridge specification.
