The purpose of this study is to understand the structural performance of the specimens beam by changing the depth and width of the U-shaped composite beam. To this end, experimental specimens by changing depth and width as compared with a reference specimen were prepared and tested. As a result of this study, growth of the depth has great effect on the structural performance while a width increase has no significant effect on the structural performance of composite beam.
This research provides a method that can be conveniently and easily to apply the prestressing force to concrete structures incorporating shape memory alloy fibers. For this, discrete shape memory alloy fibers were manufactured to be mixed with cement mortar. Then shape memory effect was generated to evaluate uplift displacements at the mid-span of the mortar beams with increasing fiber volume fractions.
Chloride penetration into concrete is the main cause of the corrosion of steel in concrete structures exposed to chloride-rich environments. As a preventive or remedial method, surface treatments on concrete have been increasingly applied to both new and existing concrete structures to combat this problem. So far, knowledge of how a surface treatment reduces chloride diffusion is limited and the relationship between chloride diffusion resistance and surface treatment parameters, such as thickness, porosity and diffusion coefficient, has not been quantitatively identified. In this paper, chloride ion penetration modeling is performed to predict the service life of the surface treated concrete.
In this study, an experimental test is conducted on a concrete specimen using passive thermography (IRT) which is an effective and modern non-destructive test (NDT) method in detecting delaminations. The present work evaluates the detectability of delaminations with different sizes during the daytime by the absolute contrast technique. In addition, the most suitable time for delamination inspection of concrete structures is also proposed.
The concrete vacuum tube structure, which must maintain air-tightness, is manufactured in the form of a segment, and it is necessary to install the joints at uniform gap in order to assemble in the field.

Nonuniform concrete formwork were invented and specimens were manufactured to verify by test.
Acoustic Emission (AE) technique applied to detect the crack occurrence of the actual beam element. An optimum position for a limited number of AE transducer was considered to accurately detect the location of the cracks in the three-dimensional space. Six AE transducer was used to detect cracks in the L400mm×H200mm×T100mm region, and several position combinations were applied. Considerable six position combinations were selected, and the weak or incorrect position detection was investigated. The optimum position applied to the experiment for actual beam element and the detected crack position was compared with the visual inspection location. A reliable crack position detecting was confirmed for loadings.

해상풍력 지지구조물은 설치과정에서 수직도 오차가 발생하여 풍력발전기 전체 구조의 안전성이 저하될 수 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 콘크리트 중력식 해상풍력 연결부에서 PS 앵커와 앵커체결구 그라우트를 사용하여 수직도를 조정할 수 있는 방안에 대한 연구를 수행 하였다. 연결부는 5MW급 해상풍력 지지구조물에서 발생한 수직도 오차를 최대 0.5°까지 보정하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 우선, 수직도 조정이 가능한 해상풍력 연결부에 대해 주요 부재별 설계안과 설계절차를 제안하고, 제주도 해상지역을 대상으로 설계 제원을 산출하였다. 그 후, 설계 제원에 대해 비선형 3차원 유한요소해석을 수행하여 설계안의 적정성을 검토하였다. 검토 결과, 하중 전달 메커니즘과 연결부 발생 응력 확인을 통해 제안 설계안은 0.5°의 수직도 오차를 보정하여도 안전하다고 판단하였다.
건설해체공사와 유사한 특성을 갖는 원전 제염해체공사에서 구조적 리스크 관리는 매우 중요하다(DOE). 하지만 제염해체작업 중 발생할 수 있는 구조적 재난재해 및 위험요소는 크게 고려하지 않고 있다. 이로 인해, 구조적 재난 및 재해에 의해 발생할 수 있는 작업자 리스크 역시 체계적으로 정립되어 있지 않다. 또한, 재난 및 재해 그리고 리스크 분류체계는 작업의 특성(작업프로세스, 활용장비, 작업 위치 등)별로 분류되어 있지 않아 실제 해체공사를 위한 매뉴얼로 활용하기에 무리가 있다. 따라서 차폐 콘크리트 구조물 제염해체공사의 건설해체공사와의 유사성을 기반으로 작업의 특성별로 분류한 리스크를 도출하는 것은 원자력 발전소 해체공사 리스크 관리에 필수적으로 판단한다.
Chloride attack is one of the most critical deterioration due to rapid corrosion initiation and propagation which can cause structural safety problem. Extended service life through repairing is very important for determination of maintenance strategy. Conventionally adopted models for estimation of LCC (Life Cycle Cost) have shown step-shaped elevation of cost, however the extension of service life is much affected by quality of construction and repairing materials, which means engineering uncertainties in residual service life. In the paper, RC (Reinforced Concrete) column with three different mix proportions exposed to chloride attack are considered, and repairing numbers with related costs are evaluated through probabilistic technique for maintenance. When calculating repair frequency for intended service life through probabilistic model, the required repair frequency is evaluated to be 6.71 times for OPC, 4.09 times for SG30, and 2.95 times for SG 50, respectively. The probabilistic model for repairing cost is evaluated to be effective for reducing the repair frequency reasonably with changing the intended service life and design parameters.
This paper presents the effect of recycled aggregate on the structural design in replacement of natural aggregate. As an actual structure, the concrete airshaft in a subway under construction was chosen and design-criteria obtained from experiments in association with different ratios of recycled aggregate were applied. It was found from the analysis that recycled aggregate can be applied to real concrete structures considering just strength concept and also if other unknown problems such as quality, serviceability and so on be solved.

기존의 LB-DECK는 레티스바와 현장에서 배근되는 철근과의 간섭이 시공성 등을 저하시키는 문제점이 지적되고 있었다. HB-DECK는 레티스바의 형태를 단순화하고, 방향을 주철근 방향에서 배력근 방향으로 전환하였으며 강성을 증가시키기 위해 하면에 리브를 설치하였다. 본 연구에서는 HB-DECK가 프리캐스트 콘크리트 슬래브로써 성능을 발휘할 수 있는지를 검증하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 도로교설계기준(2015)에 의한 구조검증과 HB-DECK와 현장타설 콘크리트와의 합성거동 분석을 위해 정적재하시험을 수행하였다. 범용구조해석 프로그램인 MIDAS FEA를 이용하여 3차원 유한요소해석을 수행하였으며, 해석결과와 실험결과를 비교분석하였다. 그 결과, HB-DECK는 현장타설 콘크리트와 완전한 합성거동을 하는 것으로 나타났으며, 도로교설계기준(2015)에서 요구하는 구조성능을 만족하는 것으로 나타났다.
