In this study, it was evaluated the protective performance of the protection material for filed of the army by impact of fragment from the explosion of 155mm artillery shell to propose the improvement items. And it was evaluated the protection materials for structural boby such as corrugated steel plate, concrete block, prevention paint of explosion, aluminum foam and concrete T-wall by impact of fragment of 155mm artillery shells and explosion-induced pressure of C-4 explosive. As a result, protective performance of the existing protective material was superior but reinforcement is necessary for secondary damage because sand is leaking. The protective performance of new protective materials was greater than existing protective materials. And it can be used for protective materials.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the flexural strengthening effects of RC beams reinforced with carbon fiber sheets (CFS) in variable of strengthening amount and anchorage length of CFS. This study can be summarized as follows ; The CFS shares the tensile stress such as rebar during loading test. Also, as the strengthening amount of CFS is increased, the maximum flexural strength of RC beams reinforced with CFS is increased. Therefore, it is confirmed that the CFS's strengthening method is very effective to improve the flexural strength of RC beams. The maximum flexural strength of RC beams with CFS is determined by bond failure between CFS and concrete surface. So, the evaluation of CFS's strengthening effect can be calculated using the tensile stress of CFS which is peeling. When the anchorage length of CFS is increased, the ductility of RC beams is increased because of delaying the peeling of CFS. But, in case of same anchorage length of CFS, when the strengthening amount of CFS is increased, the ductility is decreased. Therefore, it is considered that the anchorage of CFS in the end zone is necessary.

In this paper, a damage detection method using mode shapes of truss structures is presented. The theory is formulated based on the changes in the modal strain energy in a truss type structures due to damage. To examine the feasibility, the theory is applied to an experimental data of a 1:6 scale model of a typical hexagonal truss structure. The experiment consists of 17 damage scenarios subjected to three different types of damage. The damage evaluation results show that the proposed method detects successfully damage in truss elements and also show that the performance of proposed method can be significantly impacted by the noise in the measurement data for small damage.

This research is to measure and analyze the thermal performance of the apartment structure and to evaluate and establish standards of thermal insulation defect in order to make the basic data necessary for determining the degree of the thermal performance degradation and for repairing and reinforcing the exterior wall of the existing apartment. Furthermore, it is to predict the part of occurrence of the thermal bridge and condensation at the apartment building structure. On the other one hand, it is also to analyze the degree of thermal insulation performance according to the standards of thermal insulation and elapsed time, through the analysis by the workability of concrete.

A fire-resistant steel with enhanced load-bearing capacity has been developed to enable structural elements such as columns and beams withstand exposure to severe fire conditions. To precisely evaluate the fire-resistant performance of structural elements that compose fire-resistant steels, mechanical properties such as yield strength and elastic modulus are essential. To obtain the mechanical database of fire-resistant steels at high temperatures, tensile tests at high temperatures were conducted on steels of two kinds of thicknesses. The results showed that the thickness difference could not affect the mechanical properties at a high temperature.

In order to promote the practicality of high-rise steel buildings, the development of structural system which have the better fire resistance, the changeable plan, and the quality control of construction with general composite beams is needed. In this research, new semi-slim floor which the defect of general slim floor was complemented was evaluated to investigate the concrete integration with slim-flor beam and the flexural performance. 5 simply supported semi-slim floor beam tests were performed with parameters; structural form of slab support beam, slab thickness, with or without web opening, and shear connection. Experimental results showed that all specimen s had good ductile behavior.

Buckling-Restrained Braces (BRB) has been developed to inhibit buckling and exhibit stable behavior underboth tensile and compresive cycles. In this study, an experime nt has been conducted by using the strength of its members and loading protocols as parameters to evaluate the structural performance of BRB (without in-filed concrete). Specimens are composed of an inner core and an outer tube with diferent steel strengths. When high-strength steels were used as iner cores, the ductility of BRB decreased, and the requirements (Cumulative Plastic Ductility) of the AISC Seismic Provisions were not satisfied. however, when high-strength steels were used as inner cores instead of conventional strength stel cores, the maximum capacity increased significantly and displayed similar performance in total energy dissipation.

Many new structural systems have been developed to build free-form structures, which is the new architectural trend for aesthetic beauty. The diagrid system resists both gravity and later loads, with its perimeter-diagonal columns. In the current seismic-design provisions, however, a seismic-performance factor for a new structural system has not yet been provided. ATC-63 provides a new methodology for defining various seismic-performance factors, including the response modification factor. In this paper, nonlinear static and dynamic analyses were conducted for the 3D diagrid frame, with each load applied at $0-180^{\circ}$ degrees. Through these analyses, the seismic performance of the diagrid system was evaluated.

Structural integrity assessment of defected pipe is important in fitness for service evaluation and proper engineering assessment is needed to determine whether pipelines are still fit for service. This paper present a failure prediction of gas pipes made of APIl X65 steel with gouge using stress-modified true fracture strain, which is regarded as a criterion of ductile fracture. For this purpose, API X65 pipes with gouge are simulated using elastic-plastic FE analyses with the proposed ductile failure criterion and the resulting burst pressures are compared with experimental data. Agreements are quite good, which gives confidence in the use of the proposed criteria to defect assessment fer gas pipelines. Then, further extensive finite element analyses are performed to obtain the burst pressure solution of pipes with gouge as a function of defect depth, length and pipeline geometry.

The assembled structures of pressure rice cooker are consisted of oven, top heater plate and locking ring. Since pressure is applied to the assembled structures, it should be necessary to check the safety. In this paper, structural analyses are performed from design and fracture point of view. For the design point of view, linear analysis is performed to assembled structure and for the fracture point of view, nonlinear analysis is performed to locking ring. From these results safety evaluation technique for the assembled structures of pressure rice cooker is proposed.
