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.

초고층 건물에서 수평변위 제어와 수직부재에서 발생하는 부등축소에 대한 검토가 필수적이다. 수평변위 제어를 위해 근래에 아웃 리거 구조시스템과 메가 구조시스템을 횡력저항시스템으로 사용한 초고층 건물이 증가하고 있다. 또한, 부등축소로 인한 구조적 문 제를 해결하기 위해 부등축소량 예측과 예측결과를 통한 시공단계에서의 보정방법이 연구되어 왔으나 부등축소에 대한 횡력저항시 스템의 영향 비교는 드문 편이다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 수평변위 제어를 위해 아웃리거 구조시스템과 메가 구조시스템을 사용한 60 층 규모의 철근콘크리트 주거용 초고층 건물에 대해 시공단계해석을 통한 부등축소를 비교하고 그 영향을 분석하고자 한다. 또한, 부 등축소는 비구조요소의 파손 및 구조요소에 부가하중을 유발하기도 하며 부등축소가 야기한 문제는 초고층 건물에서 중요한 부재를 손상시킬 수 있으므로 각 횡력저항시스템별로 수직부재의 부등축소에 대한 영향을 분석하였다.

최근 현장작업을 최소화할 수 있는 PC(Precast Concrete) 건축공법의 적용이 급속하게 활성화되고 있다. 그러나 PC 공법은 시공 중, 특히 부재간 일체화 이전에 구조적 성능을 발휘하기 어렵고 완공 후에도 접합부의 일체성을 확보하기 어려워 연쇄붕괴에 취약하다. PC 건축물에서는 다양한 PC 부재간 접합 상세가 존재하며, 국내외 구조/시공 상세가 현격히 다르다. 그러나 국내 PC 시스템의 시스템 과 상세 특성을 반영한 연쇄붕괴에 대한 연구는 매우 미비하다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 국내에서 주로 사용하는 PC 구조시스템과 접 합부 구조/시공 상세를 조사 분석하였다. 이를 기반으로 국내에서 사용되는 전형적인 PC 시스템의 유형을 설정하고 상기 PC 시스템 의 연쇄붕괴방지성능을 평가하기 위하여 비선형 유한요소해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과를 바탕으로 국내에서 주로 사용된 PC 구조시 스템의 연쇄붕괴방지 성능을 평가하고 구조설계시 고려사항을 제안하였다.

An experimental study was carried out to evaluate the shear performance at the interface composed of structural laminates and concrete. The main variables are the number of CLT layers and the shape of the shear connector. The number of CLT layers consisted of 3 and 5 layers. A total of 6 test specimens for shear performance evaluation were prepared in the form of a shear connector, a direct screw type and a vertically embedded type. As a result of the experiment, similar behavior was shown in all specimens, regardless of the number of layers, including direct screw type (SC series) and vertically embedded type (VE series). The behavior at the joint surface was damaged due to the occurrence of initial shear cracks, expansion of shear groove cracks, and splaying at the interface after the maximum load.After the maximum load, the shear strength decreased gradually due to the effect of the shear connector. It can be seen that the shear strength of all specimens is determined by shear and compression stress failure of concrete at the interface of the notch joint.

PURPOSES : In this study, an ASR-reducing (alkali-silica reaction) cement was developed to prevent the blow-up of concrete pavements. To develop ASR-reducing cement, various amounts of ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS), and fly ash (FA) were substituted with Portland cement, and the ASR reduction effect was verified through various experiments. METHODS : The physical properties of ASR-reducing cement, varying with the substitution amounts of GGBFS and FA, were verified through compressive strength tests. In addition, the ASR reduction effect was examined using accelerated mortar bar tests. Furthermore, the reasons for the ASR reduction were investigated using microstructural analysis techniques, such as XRD and TG/DTG. RESULTS : There was a difference in the compressive strength results according to the amount of GGBFS and FA substitution. In addition, the samples with GGBFS and FA exhibited relatively lower compressive strengths at 3 days, than OPC samples, but the compressive strength at 28 days was higher than that of the OPC samples. The samples with GGBFS and FA had higher compressive strength at 28 days than OPC samples, because the substituted GGBFS and FA induced pozzolanic reaction. Through XRD and TG/DTG analyses, various degrees of pozzolanic reaction occurring in the samples were examined, and a more active pozzolanic reaction occurred in the samples with FA than in the samples with GGBFS. Therefore, it appeared that the ASR reduction effect occurred because of the induced pozzolanic reaction. CONCLUSIONS : GGBFS and FA substituting Portland cement indicated an ASR reduction effect, which was owing to the pozzolanic reaction. In addition, FA indicated a greater ASR reduction effect than GGBFS, which suggested that FA induced a more active pozzolanic reaction than GGBFS.

A shake table test is conducted for the three-story reinforced concrete building structure using 0.28 g, 0.5 g, 0.75 g, and 1.0 g of seismic input motions based on the Gyeongju earthquake. Computational efforts are made in parallel to explore the mechanical details in the structure. For engineering practice, the elastic modulus of concrete and rebar in the dynamic analysis is reduced to 38% and 50%, respectively, to calibrate the structure's natural frequencies. The engineering approach to the reduced modulus of elasticity is believed to be due to the inability to specify the flexibility of the actual boundary conditions. This aspect may lead to disadvantages of nonlinear dynamic analysis that can distort local stress and strain relationships. The initial elastic modulus can be applied directly without the so-called engineering adjustment with infinite element models with spring and spring-dashpot boundary conditions. This has the advantage of imposing the system flexibility of the structure on the sub-boundary conditions of springs and damping devices to control its sensitivity in a serial arrangement. This can reflect the flexibility of realistic boundary conditions and the effects of system damping (such as the gap between a concrete footing and shake table, loosening of steel anchors, etc.) in scalar quantities. However, these spring and dashpot coefficients can only be coordinated based on experimental results, making it challenging to select the coefficients in-prior to perform an experimental test.

PURPOSES : Nitrogen oxides (NOx) are the main precursors to generate fine particulate matter, which significantly contribute to air pollution. NOx gases are transmitted into the atmosphere in large quantities, especially in areas with a high volume of traffic. Titanium dioxide (TiO2), which is a photocatalytic reaction material, is very efficient for removing NOx. The application of TiO2 to concrete road structures is a good alternative to remove NOx. Generally, TiO2 concrete is produced by mixing concrete with TiO2 . However, a significant amount of TiO2 in concrete cannot be exposed to air pollutants or UV. Therefore, an alternative method of penetrating TiO2 into horizontal concrete structures using a surface penetration agent was proposed in a previous study. This method may not only be economical but also applicable to various types of horizontal concrete structures. However, the TiO2 penetration method may not be applied to vertical structures because it has a mechanism for the penetration of TiO2-containing penetration agents via gravity and capillary forces. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the applicability of the pressurized TiO2 fixation method for existing vertical road structures. METHODS : For the application of vertical concrete structures — such as retaining walls, side ditches, and barriers — the applicability of a static and dynamic pressurized TiO2 fixation method was evaluated according to the experimental conditions, considering the amount of pressure and time. The penetration depth and distribution of TiO2 particles in the concrete specimen were measured using SEM/EDAX. In addition, the NOx removal efficiencies of TiO2 concrete were evaluated using the NOx analysis system. RESULTS : As a result of measuring the penetration depth and distribution of TiO2 in the concrete, it was found that the surface-predicted mass ratio increased with increasing pressure and time. In the case of the static pressurized fixation method, it was confirmed that a pressure time of at least 10 s at a pressure of 0.2 MPa and 5 s at a pressure higher than 0.3 MPa were required to achieve a NOx removal efficiency higher than 40 %. Conversely, for the dynamic pressurized fixation method applying a hitting energy of 16.95 J, NOx removal efficiencies higher than 50 % were secured in a pressure time of more than 3 s. CONCLUSIONS : The results of this study showed that the static and dynamic pressurized TiO2 fixation method was advantageous in penetrating and distributing TiO2 particles into the concrete surface to effectively remove NOx. It was confirmed that the proposed method to remove NOx was sufficiently applicable to existing vertical concrete road structures.

The methodology classifying structural types of concrete buildings in the existing seismic fragility functions is too simple to estimate the fragility of existing residential buildings and neighborhood living facilities, especially those below five stories. Their structural types are dependent on information contained in the building register such as main use, total floor area, story, permission date, and first story floor area of the individual building. All of this information is not considered for classifying types in the existing functions; therefore, the goal of this study was to suggest a methodology that classifies structural types of concrete buildings by utilizing such information. The results of this study showed that the suggested methodology can classify structural types better than the existing methodology. Nevertheless, there is still a need to simplify the methodology because fragility estimation demands quickness rather than accuracy.
