Exposed-type steel column bases are used widely in low-rise building construction. Numerous researchers have examined methods to identify their stiffness and strength, but those studies have heretofore been restricted to in-plane behaviors. This paper presents an experimental investigation of inelastic behaviors of square hollow section (SHS) steel column bases under biaxial bending. Two types of failure modes are considered : anchor bolt yielding and base plate yielding. Different pinching effects and interaction surfaces for biaxial bending are observed for these two modes during bi-directional quasi-static cyclic loading tests. Differences are elucidated using limit analyses based on a simple analytical model.

The resent earthquakes in worldwide have caused extensive damage to highway reinforced concrete bridge piers. It has been observed in the Korean Peninsula that the number of minor or low earthquake motions have increased year by year. Since the concern about the earthquake hazards is increased, the objective of this research is to evaluate the damage of reinforced concrete bridge piers subjected to probable earthquake motions. Experimental investigation was conducted to study the seismic performance of the full-scale specimens in size D=1.2m H=4.8m, which were constructed with different longitudinal lap splice and loading pattern, through the quasi-static test and the pseudo-dynamic test. It is thought that this result could contribute to establish the retrofit decision-making and disaster planning of reinforced concrete bridge piers in earthquake regions. And it could be also possible to quantify the damage of reinforced concrete bridge piers under cyclic loading

Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets are the most efficient structural materials in terms of strength to weight ratio and its application in strengthening and retrofitting of a structure or structural elements are inevitable. The performance enhancement of structural elements without increasing the cross sectional area and flexible nature are the major advantages of FRP in retrofitting/strengthening work. This research article presents a detailed study on the inelastic response of conventional and retrofitted Reinforced Concrete (RC) frames using Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) and Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers (GFRP) subjected to quasi-static loading. The hysteretic behaviour, stiffness degradation, energy dissipation and damage index are the parameters employed to analyse the efficacy of FRP strengthening of brick in-filled RC frames. Repair and retrofitting of brick infilled RC frame shows an improved load carrying and damage tolerance capacity than control frame.

This paper has proposed a reinforcing method for damaged RC columns with SRF sheets and Aramid rods. In order to verify the effectiveness and performance, two original columns and two reinforced columns with SRF sheets and Aramid rods were developed and tested under lateral cyclic displacement and a constant axial load. The test showed that the improvement of energy dissipation capacity was increased in terms of strength and ductility. In addition, an analytical modeling of the standard specimens was proposed using Response-2000 and ZeusNL program. The results of analytical and experimental studies for two standard columns were compared in terms of loading-displacement curve and energy dissipation capacity based on the nonlinear static analysis.

강합성교각과 강교각은 철근곤크리트교각에 비해서 우수한 연성, 작은 단면 및 빠른 시공속도에도 불구하고 이 같은 장점들을 활용할 필요가 있는 도시지역에서조차 철근콘크리트교각의 대안으로서 활용되지 못하였다. 이 논문은 강합성교각과 강교각의 내진성능 평가에 관한 연속된 두편의 논문 중 첫편으로 강교각과 강합성 교각의 연성과 강성을 평가 비교하기 위해 수행한 준정적 반복재하실험을 대상으로 하였다. 기존의 강교각 및 강합성교각의 실험과 더불어 채움콘크리트와 하부 다이어프램간의 부작을 개선한 상세를 실험하였다. 또한, 강합성교각의 연성과 강성을 산정하기 위한 간편한 수치해석방법을 찾기 위해 비선형 스프링과 쉘요소를 사용한 해석을 시도하였다. 도시내의 전형적인 오버패스구간의 교각을 모델로 한 실험결과, 강합성교각은 강교각에 비해서 우수한 강성과 에너지 소산능력을 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났으며 채움콘크리트의 부착과 응력집중부의 상세를 개선시기는 것이 강합성교각의 연성과 강성을 증가시키는데 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 시도된 수지해석방법은 강합성교각과 강교각의 거동을 완벽하게 모사하지는 못했지만 추가적인 연구가 진행되면 연성과 강성을 평가하는 간편한 방법으로 사용될 수 있는 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate experimentally the effects of both seismic loading and crack length on the fracture behavior of piping system with a circumferential crack in nuclear power plants. The experiments were performed using both large scale piping system facility and 4 points bending test machine under PWR operating conditions. The difference in the load carrying capacities between cracked piping and non-cracked piping was also investigated using the results from experiments and numerical calculations. The results obtained from the experiments and estimation are as follows : (1) The safety margin under seismic loading is larger than those under quasi static loading or simple cyclic loading. (2) There was no significant effect of crack length on tincture behavior of piping system with both a surface crack and a through-wall crack. (3) The load carrying capacity in cracked piping was reduced by factors of 7 to 46 compared to non-cracked piping.

The use of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement in concrete structures has been on the rise due to its advantages over conventional steel reinforcement such as corrosion. Reinforcing steel corrosion has been the primary cause of deterioration of reinforced concrete (RC) structures, resulting in tremendous annual repair costs. One application of FRP reinforcement to be further explored is its use in RC frames. Nonetheless, due to FRP's inherently elastic behavior, FRP-reinforced (FRP-RC) members exhibit low ductility and energy dissipation as well as different damage mechanisms. Furthermore, current design standards for FRP-RC structures do not address seismic design in which the beam-column joint is a key issue. During an earthquake, the safety of beam-column joints is essential to the whole structure integrity. Thus, research is needed to gain better understanding of the behavior of FRP-RC structures and their damage mechanisms under seismic loading. In this study, two full-scale beam-column joint specimens reinforced with steel and GFRP configurations were tested under quasi-static loading. The control steel-reinforced specimen was detailed according to current design code provisions. The GFRP-RC specimen was detailed in a similar scheme. The damage in the two specimens is characterized to compare their performance under simulated seismic loading.

This study was conducted to investigate the residual bearing capacity of steel-concrete composite beams under high-cycle fatigue loading through experiments and theoretical analysis. Six test beams with stud connectors were designed and fabricated for static, complete fatigue, and partial fatigue tests. The failure modes and the degradation of several mechanical performance indicators of the composite beams under high-cycle fatigue loading were analyzed. A calculation method for the residual bearing capacity of the composite beams after certain quantities of cyclic loading cycles was established by introducing nonlinear fatigue damage models for concrete, steel beam, and shear connectors beginning with the material residual strength attenuation process. The results show that the failure mode of the composite beams under the given fatigue load appears to be primarily affected by the number of cycles. As the number of fatigue loadings increases, the failure mode transforms from mid-span concrete crushing to stud cutting. The bearing capacity of a 3.0-m span composite beam after two million fatigue cycles is degraded by 30.7% due to premature failure of the stud. The calculated values of the residual bearing capacity method of the composite beam established in this paper agree well with the test values, which indicates that the model is feasibly applicable.

세계적으로 폐기물의 발생량이 급증하여 매립지의 숫자가 급증하고 있으나 사용이 완료된 매립지의 처리에 많은 어려움이 있다. 특히, 도시 폐기물 매립지는 인구밀집 지역과의 근접성, 부지개발에 따른 경제적 가치의 급등 등의 이유로 활용 가능한 새로운 건설부지로서 많은 관심이 집중되고 있다. 그러나, 폐기물 매립지반 위에 구조물을 축조할 경우, 특별한 안정처리 및 보강처리를 하지 않은 경우, 지반침하, 구조물에 대한 지지력 확보 등에 문제점이 발생될 수 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 폐기물 매립지반위에 구조물을 축조할 경우, 지오그리드 및 지오셀의 보강 효과를 규명하고자 반복평판재하시험을 수행하여 주요 영향인자인 지지력증가비, 지반계수, 스프링상수, 탄성회복율 등을 평가하였다.
