This study presents the results of an experimental program carried out for estimating the variation of the flexural rigidity of reinforced concrete beams with different shear span-to-depth ratios. The specimens are designed to have identical sectional dimension, tension and compression reinforcement ratios, and material properties, except shear span-to-depth ratio. Experimental results showed that the flexural rigidity of reinforced concrete beams was affected by the shear span-to-depth ratio of specimens.

The new technologies such as modularization are developed to secure competition against oversea NPP for APR+ Plant. To reduce the construction period, the SC structure and Half-SC structure modules were respectively applied to exterior wall and slab of the APR+ IRWST. In this paper, partitioning Methods of IRWST module, constructability and construction schedules were analyzed. Consequently, it is concluded that the construction period can be reduced by applying IRWST modules to NPP Construction.

Railway bridges through the downtown region is an excellent bridge type noise reduction performance is required. According to this request, the bridge of the noise barrier installation is not required and low vibration is under development. This railway bridge is PSC U-Type lower route railway bridge with sound absorbing system. Because the bridge cross-section wraps a train and web contains the sound-absorbing system, noise is reduced. In this study, we analyzed the noise reduction performance of PSC U-Type lower route railway bridge with sound absorbing system using general noise analysis program.

The use of steel deck-plate has continuously increased in slab construction because of efficiency of construction-ability. Slab member is not only resisting the loads but sensitive the deflection. Generally, steel deck-plate slab has higher equivalent moment of inertia than normal RC slab because of its bottom steel plate. In this study, stiffness variation of the various slab was experimentally examined.

The main control room(MCR) module in the auxiliary building has been reviewed to reduce the construction period. The main control room module are divided into ceiling & floor module and integrated combined module(ICM) including duct, tray, piping. In this paper, a numerical lifting analysis for ICM was performed to confirm the structural integrity. In regards of installation process, the constructability of the MCR module was reviewed as well. Consequently, it is concluded that the reduction of construction period is possible.

The purpose of this paper is to detect the fiber stiffness degradation of GFRP plates from natural frequency response data. The combined finite element analysis using ABAQUS program and the inverse algorithm described in this paper may allow us not only to detect the deteriorated elements from the mirco mechanical point of view. Several numerical results show that the proposed system is computationally efficient in identifying fiber stiffness degradation for complex structures such as composites.

Transverse reinforcement in reinforced concrete column can improve strength and ductility by confining column to expend laterally. The effects of enhancement of strength and ductility depend on the degree of confinement on transverse reinforcement. The theoretical equations about confinement effects of reinforcement concrete column were proposed by earlier investigators. In this study, it was identify the factor for significant impact on reinforced concrete circle column based on early models, and Parameter studies was carried out by each factor. Parameter studies decide the major variables for vertical interval and yield strength of transverse reinforcement, compressive strength of concrete, and sectional area. In Parameter study results, it was identify that vertical interval of transverse reinforcement is significant impact on the strength and ductility.

The hoop bars confining the longitudinal reinforcement increase the strength and ductility of the column. The enhancement effects on the strength and ductility of the RC columns with rectangular cross section are represented differently depending on the degree of hoop bars reinforcement. A theoretical studies were performed using the previous equations proposed by earlier researchers. As the results of this theoretical studies, the yield strength bar and the vertical space of hoop bars are the most influenced in the strength and ductility of the columns. A square RC column than a rectangular RC column was found to receive a larger impact on the strength and ductility effect.

For steel structure, corrosion damage should be considered because it is related to durability and structural performacne of steel structure. In this study, therefore, compressive loading tests of inclined steel members were conducted to examine change in the compressive strength depending on corrosion damage applied by mechanical process. From loading tests, compressive behavior and change in structural capacity of inclined steel members with corrosion were compared.

Because significant difference between normal concrete and fiber reinforced ultra-high strength concrete under tension and compression, bond behavior also have significant difference. Bond behavior may affect to the flexural behavior and shear behavior of reinforced concrete beams. Especially, because ultra high strength concrete usually be used as precast members, bond between concrete and steel rebar should be safely and accurately evaluated for design. In this study, bond test results about ultra high strength fiber reinforced concrete were investigated and evaluated with various types of prediction methods, especially for empirical equations.
