철근 콘크리트 하수관거는 경제적 장점과 내구성으로 인해 많이 사용되고 있다. 오랜 공용시간 이후 하수관거는 하 수의 산화물과 공용하중에 의해 열화가 진행된다. 본 논문은 초고강도 콘크리트로 갱생한 열화된 콘크리트 하수관거의 구조적 성능에 대해 연구하였다. 실험변수는 초고강도 콘크리트 관거 상부슬래브와 벽체의 두께의 조합으로 구성하였다. 네가지 종류의 초고강도 콘크리트 관거가 극한하중을 받을 때까지 내하력을 파악하기 위해 실험을 진행하였다. 보통 강도 콘크리트에 비해 상 대적으로 작은 두께의 초고강도 콘크리트 관거는 열화된 내부 부분을 치핑하고 갱생함으로써 단면의 손실을 최소화할 수 있다. 실험결과에 의하면 열화된 콘크리트 관거를 갱생하는데 적용된 새로운 얇은 두께의 초고강도 콘크리트 구조물이 재하하중을 만 족하고 실제 공학적 적용에 용이성을 있음을 나타내고 있다.

In the case of columns in buildings with soft story, the concentration of stress due to the difference in stiffness can damage the columns. The irregularity of buildings including soft story requires retrofit because combined load of compression, bending, shear, and torsion acts on the structure. Concrete jacketing is advantageous in securing the strength and stiffness of existing members. However, the brittleness of concrete make it difficult to secure ductility to resist the large deformation, and the complicated construction process for integrity between the existing member and extended section reduces the constructability. In this study, two types of Steel Grid Reinforcement (SGR), which are Steel Wire Mesh (SWM) for integrity and Steel Fiber Non-Shrinkage Mortar (SFNM) for crack resistance are proposed. One reinforced concrete (RC) column with non-seismic details and two columns retrofitted with each different types of proposed method were manufactured. Seismic performance was analyzed for cyclic loading test in which a combined load of compression, bending, shear, and torsion was applied. As a result of the experiment, specimens retrofitted with proposed concrete jacketing method showed 862% of maximum load, 188% of maximum displacement and 1,324% of stiffness compared to non-retrofitted specimen.

본 논문에서는 전이보 시스템이 지닌 층고 및 공사물량 증가의 단점을 보완할 수 있는 경계보-벽체 시스템의 압축성능을 평가하였 다. 1/2 축소실험체에 대한 압축실험을 수행하고 그 결과를 3차원 비선형 유한요소해석 결과와 비교 및 분석하였다. 실험체 변수로 상 하부벽체의 수평길이 상대비, 하부벽체의 두께, 하부벽체 전단보강근의 상세를 고려하였다. 실험의 최대하중은 하부벽체의 공칭축강 도와 유사하게 나타났으며, 이로부터 상부벽체로부터의 수직 하중이 하부벽체로 원활하게 전달되며, 편심으로 인한 모멘트 중 상당 량을 경계보가 가져감을 알 수 있다. 상하부벽체 수평길이의 상대비가 40%일 경우 50%일 때보다 단면의 기여도가 증가하였으며, 하 부벽체에 면외방향 편심이 존재할 경우 단면의 기여도가 감소하였다. 하부벽체의 전단보강근 간격을 줄이고 크로스 타이를 배근할 경우 초기강성 및 최대하중이 증가하며 국부적인 응력집중이 감소하였다.

In this study, to verify the structural performance of the Composite Joint System (CJS) hybrid structural model, a cyclic load test was performed and evaluated and verified through the test. To verify the structural performance of the CJS hybrid structural systems’ joint and evaluate the seismic performance, four three-dimensional real-size specimens were developed with three internal beam-column specimens and one external beam-column specimen. The three interior column specimens were classified by different methods of joining the upper column and lower column, and the same bonding method as the primary specimen was used for the exterior column. The structural performances in terms of drift, strength, and energy dissipation capacity were analyzed and compared based on the experimental results. From the displacement-based loading experiment, all specimens showed a lateral drift of 4.0% without any significant strength drop and stable energy dissipation capacity.

본 연구에서는 원예특작시설 내재해형 규격서에 등록되어 있는 폭이 넓은 단동온실(10-단동-5형)을 대상으로 기초의 경계조건과 서까래 강관의 이음 유무에 대해 실물 크기 실험을 실시하고 그 결과를 수치해석 결과와 비교하여 이음부가 있을 때 구조성능 차이에 대해 알아보았다. 각 측정 위치별 변위를 실험에서 측정한 값과 수치해석으로 예측한 값을 비교한 결과에서는 기초의 조건 및 서까래 강관 이음 유무에 상관없이 모두 상당한 차이를 보였고, 힌지 조건 보다 고정 조건이 상대적으로 차이가 컸다. 그리고 모든 절점을 강접합으로 가정하고 구조해석한 결과를 구조실험과 비교한 결과에서는 힌지조건이 고정조건 보다 잘 일치하였지만 해석값이 실험값 보다 크게 나타났다. 수치해석은 모든 절점을 강접합으로 가정했기 때문에 실제 성능과 달랐다. 따라서 현재 모든 절점을 강접합 으로 가정하고 온실을 설계를 하면 과소설계될 우려가 있어 앞으로 신뢰성 높은 온실 설계를 위해서는 서까래와 도리가 교차하는 교차부 성능 특성을 고려한 구조해석 기술 개발이 이루어져야 할 것으로 판단된다.

PURPOSES : The evaluation of the road pavement thickness in an apartment complex through a methodology for estimating the number of construction vehicles is presented. We also show the usability of the new design criteria. METHODS : A field survey plan was established by conducting literature and preliminary surveys, and the structural performance of each section of the road pavement was compared through a structural analysis program. The load on construction vehicles is required for analyzing the ESAL factors of construction vehicles; it is calculated as a methodology for estimating construction vehicles because it is difficult to measure the traffic volume through visual inspection. Accordingly, the extent of damage predicted by road pavement sections in apartment complexes was analyzed to examine the possibility of applying the methodology for estimating the number of construction vehicles. RESULTS : If the road crack exceeds 20% as a result of the site survey of a previous study, structural damage to the road pavement occurs from construction vehicles. Compared to the actual traffic volume observation, an error of 5% took place; therefore, it is necessary to perform a design such that the damage caused by the load of the construction vehicle be 15% or less for proper road performance. Structural analysis through the KENPAVE program showed that the damage caused by the load of the construction vehicle exceeded 20% in all sections except section B (with a thickness of 46 cm). CONCLUSIONS : Owing to the limitations of the test construction section and environmental conditions, it is necessary to assess the effects of various variables by conducting an analysis. This is expected to be applied as a design basis considering more reliable construction vehicles.

최근 전 세계적으로 지진 발생빈도가 급증하면서 초고층 건축물에 다양한 피해가 발생하고 있다. 특히 고층 건물에 가해지는 수평하중이 구조물의 주요 구조요소 뿐만 아니라 외부 패널의 파손으로 유리 외장재가 낙하하는 등 2차 피해가 발생할 수 있다. 이러한 문제의 심각성을 고려하여 비구조 요소에 대한 2차 손상 방지 방안을 마련하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서 는 기존 건축물 외부 패널이 가진 문제점에 대하여 실대형 시험과 유한요소 해석을 토대로 구조적 성능을 분석하고 취약부를 도출하였으며, 이를 보완하기 위해 층간 분리형 커튼월 모듈과 이동형 패스너를 적용한 커튼월 모듈에 대한 유한요소해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과를 바탕으로 기존 커튼월과 비교시 구조적 안정성을 확보할 수 있는 것으로 확인되었다.

In this study, the Buckling restrained braces reinforced with engineering plastics that can compensate for the disadvantages in the manufacturing process of the existing buckling restrained brace. The proposed PC-BRB was fabricated to evaluate the reinforcement effect by carrying out a structural performance test and a full-scale two-layer frame test through cyclic loading test. As a result of PC-BRB's incremental and cyclic loading test, stable hysteresis behavior was achieved within the target displacement, and the compressive strength adjustment coefficient satisfied the recommendation. As a result of the real frame experiment, the strength of the reinforced specimen increased compared to the unreinforced specimen, and the ductility and energy dissipation increased.

In this study, the structural analysis and welding performance experiments were performed to reduce the weight of the semi-automatic TIG welding device. The structural analysis based on finite element method was performed on the lightweight design of the wire feeder's main frame to evaluate the structural safety and straightness of the lightweight frame. To reduce the weight of the welding wire feeder, the step motor was changed to a servo motor and a pinion gear made of lightweight reinforced plastic material was applied. In addition, a new type of welding torch was developed to reduce the weight of the welding torch and to supply more effective fillers. As a result of performing the TIG welding experiment using a prototype of TIG welding device consisting of a lightweight frame, feeding device and welding torch, it was confirmed that the working criteria were satisfied in terms of welding speed, welding bead shape, feeding uniformity and torch durability. The developed lightweight TIG welding device is expected to improve welding productivity and work convenience.

Recently, studies have been actively conducted on seismic design and improvement of the seismic performance of bridges, buildings, factories, and plants. In particular, heavy items that are being manufactured or waiting to be shipped from factories (such as generators, engines, and boilers) must be equipped with seismic stoppers to prevent them from moving or falling during an earthquake. Seismic stoppers should be suitably determined by the size and weight of these heavy items; however, they have no general design standard. In this study, structural analyses and seismic tests were conducted to evaluate the performance of newly designed seismic stoppers. Structural analysis was performed on three stopper models to estimate the external load at which the yield stress of the material was not exceeded. Based on the analysis results, a seismic test of the stopper was carried out in accordance with the AC156 test method. Finally, product specifications for all three seismic stopper models were determined and their static/dynamic load performance was evaluated.

We prepare ZnO nanoparticles by environmentally friendly synthesis using Cyathea nilgiriensis leaf extract. Various phytochemical constituents are identified through the assessment of ethanolic extract of plant Cyathea nilgiriensis holttum by GC-MS analysis. The formation of ZnO nanoparticles is confirmed by FT-IR, XRD, SEM-EDX, TEM, SAED and PSA analysis. TEM observation reveals that the biosynthesized ZnO nanopowder has a hexagonal structure. The calculated average crystallite size from the high intense plane of (1 0 1) is 29.11 nm. The particle size, determined by TEM analysis, is in good agreement with that obtained by XRD analysis. We confirm the formation of biomolecules in plant extract by FT-IR analysis and propose a possible formation mechanism of ZnO nanoparticles. Disc diffusion method is used for the analyses of antimicrobial activity of ZnO nanoparticles. The synthesized ZnO nanoparticles exhibit antimicrobial effect in disc diffusion experiments. The biosynthesized ZnO nanoparticles display good antibacterial performance against B. subtilis (Gram-positive bacteria) and K. pneumonia (Gram-negative bacteria). Bio-synthesized nanoparticles using green method are found to possess good antimicrobial performance.

In this study, we propose a new truss deckplate system, which does not require temporary floor supports during construction, with ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) infilled top bars. The increased stiffness and strength of the proposed system were well retained as compared to those of the existing truss deckplate systems, thereby resulting in the reduction of maximum deflection at the span center. Four-point bending tests were performed on five specimens with a net span of 4.6 m to evaluate the structural performance of proposed system in the construction stage. In addition, the load-deflection curve was plotted for each specimen, and the effects of test parameters were analyzed. Further, a rigorous nonlinear three-dimensional finite element analysis was performed, and its results were compared with the test results. From the results, it was observed that the test specimens of the proposed system exhibited superior performance as compared to those of the existing one and also satisfied the serviceability requirement during construction provided by the Korea Building Code 2016.
