A parametric study was carried out to gain an insight about structural performances considering abnormal behavior effects in high strength steel pipe strut system. Six load cases were considered as undesirable deflections of strut structures, which are basic load combination, excessive excavation situations, impact loading effects, additional overburden loads, load combinations, and 50% reduction of strut length. Subsequent simulation results present various influences of parameters on structural performances of the strut system. Based on the results, we propose methods to prevent unusual behaviors of pipe-type strut structures made of high strength steels.

Concrete using recycled aggregate instead of natural aggregate reduces environmental waste and is a future oriented material. However, use of the structure is limited to negative recognition of recycled aggregate quality. In this study, 50 MPa concrete was developed using recycled aggregate. In order to verify the possibility of using as a column member, we aimed to confirm the compressive behavior of RCFT (Recycled Concrete Filled Tube) columns filled with concrete using recycled aggregate. Circular type steel pipe was used, and concrete strength (30, 40, 50MPa) and mixing ratio were the experimental parameters. Through 72 specimen compression tests, 50MPa strength of recycled aggregate concrete was confirmed and stable behavior of 9 RCFT columns was confirmed.

As the corrugated steel pipes has many advantages to compensate for the shortcomings of the concrete fume pipes, it has been widely used for culverts and drain trenches. However, when corrugated steel pipes used as a sewage pipe or in an environment exposed to sea water, corrosion can cause problems and degradation of the function of pipe. So, Composite Corrugated Steel Pipe(CCSP) coated with three layers were developed to compensate for the shortcomings and improve performance of corrugated steel pipes. The composite material used in fabrication of the CCSP consists of a three layer polymer protective coating on both sides of a steel sheet core. To verify the field application of the CCSP, a test was conducted on the resistance of the strain, stability of connections, water flow performance and durability to determine whether they meet KS quality and various design standards.

This study performs finite Element stress analysis of flange connections at noise barriers with circular steel tubes, which have a light weight. Subsequent numerical simulation results for three types of models (standard, double, and standard models strengthen by ribs) present that the applied connections for target noise barriers constructed show suitable structural performance. In this paper, the existing finite element stress analysis using the ABAQUS program is further extended to study the local stress distribution of the noise barriers with new type circular steel tubes. The numerical results for various parameters are verified by comparing different types with stresses occurred in the noise barrier from the numerical simulation.

The objective of this study is to propose a simple and accurate analytical model for HSS braces. For this purpose, a physical theory model is adopted. Rectangular hollow section steel (HSS) braces are considered in this study. To accurately simulate the cyclic behavior of braces using the physical theory model, empirical equations calculating constituent parameters are implemented on the analytical model, which were proposed in the companion paper. The constituent parameters are cyclic brace growth, cyclic buckling load, and the incidence of local buckling and fracture. The analytical model proposed in this study was verified by comparing actual and simulated cyclic curves of brace specimens. It is observed that the proposed model accurately simulates the cyclic behavior of the braces throughout whole response range.

The cyclic behavior of braces is complex due to their asymmetric properties in tension and compression. For accurately simulating the cyclic curves of braces, it is important to predict the major parameters such as cyclic brace growth, cyclic buckling load, incidence local buckling and fracture with good precision. For a given brace, the most accurate values of these parameters can be estimated throughout experiments. However, it is almost impossible to conduct experiments whenever an analytical model has to be established for many braces in building structures due to enormous cost and time. For avoid such difficulties, empirical equations for predicting constituent parameters are proposed from regression analyses based on test results of various braces. This study focuses on rectangular hollow structural section(HSS) steel braces, which have been popularly used in construction practice owing to its sectional efficiency.

All structures can not be perfect due to geometric or material initial imperfections. Initial imperfections are an important factor in determining the buckling mode and are known to be important factors in evaluating the actual buckling strength. The DNV-RP-C202 design standard limits the longitudinal stiffener spacing. However, the criteria for the stiffener spacing presented in DNV-RP-C202 is a guideline derived from the curved panel theory of perfect cross-sectional shape without initial imperfections. In this study, considering geometric initial imperfections, the transition point of stiffener spacing where longitudinal stiffeners affect the buckling strength of reinforced steel wind turbine tower is analyzed using finite element analysis program. The results of finite element analysis compared with theoretical results based on the perfect shape. As a result, a more reasonable stiffener spacing considering the initial imperfections was suggested.

Structures of steel frame buildings getting vary depending on the development of construction technology. Fire-resistant steel beams and Columns accredited by accreditation bodies from the performance of various fire-resistant coating is applied to the current pillar method is most H-beams. H-beam has been proposed a non-load test specifications in the relevant regulations, its scope of accreditation to be granted without limitation of size H-beams from the performance of the test specification. However, in the case of the rectangular steel structure is to check its performance and to a separate one of the receive acknowledge and so take advantage of the cross-sectional shape factor in this study to test the performance of the fire-resistant structure proposed for standard test specimen.

The steel I-girder inserted circular steel pipe is a new structural cable-anchorage system that the circular guide pipe is connected and welded to the web of the I-girder for cable-stayed bridge. This guide pipe-anchor system has many merits of the structural and aesthetic performances. However, there has been little research into the behavior mechanism with respect to anchor angles and the strengthening methods against the sectional area reduction caused by the penetration of guide pipe. Therefore, this paper investigates an experimental behavior of the steel I-girder with circular steel tube which is fabricated 1/3 scale model as fundamental study to examine the flexural behavior and failure mode in the laboratory. Based on the comparison of test results and nonlinear FE analyses, it is found that FEM is suitable to estimate the stiffness of I-girder with circular tube in order to design the cable-stayed bridge.

So far, square concrete filled tubular(CFT) columns have been used in a limited width thickness ratio. The reason is that local buckling occurs in steel tube easily. Once the local buckling occurs, the confinement effect of steel tube on concrete disappears. In this study, we developed welded built-up square steel tube with reinforcement which are placed at the center of the tube width acts as an anchor. 3 specimens of slender welded built-up square CFT columns and 3 specimens of slender welded built-up square steel tube columns were manufactured with parameters of width(B) of steel tube, width thickness ratio(B/t). we conducted a experimental test on the 6 specimens under eccentric load, and evaluated the structural resistance and behavior of 6 specimens.
