Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) exhibits superior tensile strength and corrosion resistance compared to steel but has a lower elasticity. Recently, researchers have addressed this by proposing composite sections of FRP and concrete. To ensure the intended composite behavior, these FRP–concrete sections should exhibit sufficient stress transfer between the two elements through a shear connection. Herein, various shear connection methods were proposed to improve the composite behavior of glass fiber–reinforced polymer (GFRP) plates and concrete. Through push-out tests, the behavior characteristics of the prepared specimens were analyzed. The findings confirm that an FRP shear key (FSK) with a small cross-section resists high shear stresses, making it suitable for sections vulnerable to damage from bolt drilling. Additionally, combining an FSK with bolts as shear connectors on a GFRP plate proves beneficial in preventing the fracture of the plate and improving the shear resistance.

A notch beam test has been carried out for SFRC-SCC for precast slab tracks in accordance with BS-EN-14651. The steel fiber used is a product of Beckert, which is further processed with a general steel fiber and a steel fiber end(named as 3D, 5D). Overall, the crack behavior of the specimen using 5D fiber was superior to that of using 3D fiber

SFRC slab track specimen was fabricated and tested under flexure according to BS-EN-13230. The track is reinforced only with steel fibers. Reinforced volume ratio was 0.6%Vol. In results, slab track was found to satisfy the required capacity even though there was no ordinary steel rebar.

The present study aims to propose a corrosion detection method using a optical fiber sensor coated with a thin iron film. To evaluate the detection accuracy using the proposed method, 2 typed iron film with thicknesses of 100, 200 nm were used to monitor the reflectivity from corroded iron film via light source injection and the measurement was conducted in air, salt water, mortar packed conditions. As a result, it was found that the thickness of iron film is more sensitive to change in the reflectivity than the variation of exposure conditions

The purpose of this study is to provide basis data that can be used to establish an efficient maintenance system for the corrosion of off-shore structures by comparatively analyzing the present offshore concrete and steel structure corrosion sensors and monitoring techniques under development.

본 연구에서는 국내 콘크리트구조기준(2012)에서 규정하고 있는 최소철근량 이하로 보강된 보에 강섬유를 혼입한 강섬유보강철 근콘크리트보의 휨파괴 실험을 수행하였다. 실험변수는 철근비와 강섬유의 혼입량으로 하였다. 철근보강비는 최소철근량의 44%, 66%, 78% 와 100%로 하였으며, 강섬유의 혼입량은 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75% 및 1.00%이다. 실험결과, 강섬유는 균열저항성능을 크게 개선시키는 것으로 확 인되었다. 또한, 하중저항성능의 관점에서 강섬유는 항복하중의 증가에 기여하지만 극한하중의 증가에는 거의 기여하지 못하는 것을 확인하 였다. 강섬유로 인한 항복하중의 증가량은 철근 감소로 인한 항복하중의 감소량에 비하여 미미한 것으로 나타났다. 최소철근보에서 강섬유의 사용은 오히려 연성을 크게 감소시키는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 최소철근 휨부재에 강섬유를 사용하기 위해서는 연성도 확보를 위하여 철 근비를 증가시켜야 하는 것으로 확인되었다.

In this experimental study, the characteristic of damages on GFRP rebar exposed to high temperature only and immerged in alkaline solution after the exposure to high temperature was analyzed through microscopic image analysis. The found microcrack and pores in resin matrix were quantitatively compared if there was effect of pre-exposure to high temperature. The damages, such as microcrack and pores in resin matrix, by alkali exposure were mainly found in rebar surface. On the other hand, the pores caused by high temperatures were extensively found in a section and had greater width than those caused by the alkali exposure. In results of the quantitative comparison, the accumulated length and widths of microcrack and pores in resin matrix in pre-exposed GFRP rebar to high temperature were respectively 1.5 and 1.4 times of those in the GFRP rebar only immerged in alkali solution. Therefore, the deterioration of resin matrix by the alkali exposure could be accelerated due to the pre-exposure to high temperature.

Accelerated alkali resistance test were conducted for pre-heated GFRP Rebar. The GFRP rebar specimens were heated to temperatures of 60℃, 120℃, 200℃ and 300℃ and then immerged in alkali solution for 30days. According to ACI 440.3R-12, tensile properties were measured.

Effect of airpocket between CFS and concrete on surface resistivity was evaluated in this study. Rectangular CFS strengthened concrete specimens with different compressive strength and of voids, and resin thickness were fabricated and tested.

본 실험 논문은 초단유리섬유(milled glass fibers)가 혼입된 PSC용 그라우트 몰탈의 강재부식성능을 평가하였다. 초단유리섬유를 함유한 배합이 PSC 그라우트 몰탈로서 소요성능을 만족시키는지를 확인하기 위하여 유하시간, 블리딩 및 압축강도를 측정하였다. 초단유리 섬유를 함유한 몰탈의 부식저항 성능은 염소이온 확산시험, 몰탈 흡수시험과 표면전기저항 측정 결과에 근거하여 수행되었다. 시험결과, 초단 유리가 혼입된 모든 배합은 OPC만 사용된 배합에 비하여 그라우트의 부식저항성능을 개선시키는 것으로 확인되었다. 다만, 초단유리섬유를 사용함으로서 유하시간은 단축되지만 블리딩이 발생하여 소요성능을 만족하지 못하는 것으로 확인되었다. 그러므로 PSC 그라우트에 적합한 초단유리섬유배합이 되기 위해서는 물-바인더비의 조정이 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

본 논문은 CFRP로 보강된 RC 구조물의 공기층 검측장비 개발을 위하여 수행된 선행 실험 연구 내용이다. 실험 결과로 측정된 저항치는 공기층의 존재 유무에 의해 영향을 받는다. 측정된 저항치 는 개발장비의 유용한 정보로써 사용될 것이다.

본 연구는 PSC그라우트에 초단유리섬유를 첨가하거나 치환하였을 때, PSC구조물용 그라우트가 가지는 적합성에 대하여 연구하였다. 초단유리섬유를 첨가하였을 때 유하속도가 증가하여 작업성이 떨어진다. 또한 블리딩이 발생하지 않았으며 압축강도가 증진되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 치환할 때 유하속도가 감소했으나 블리딩이 발생하였고, 압축강도가 증진되었다. 따라서 수화반응을 일으키지 않는 초단유리섬유로 인하여 유동성이 증가하고 압축강도가 증진되었다.

In this study, we evaluate the chloride ion permeability of steel fiber rein-forced concrete. NT Build 492 experiment was used for the evalation. During the cast of SFRC, compaction works were done in same level. As a result, the chlorine ion permeability of the steel fiber rein-forced concrete is affected by Water-cement ratio. Effect of pores in the SFRC on permeability is dominant. In conclusion, it is important to get better quality of during cast in accordance with the addition of steel fiber ratio.

This study investigated the effect of cement type and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) on the mechanical properties and workability of grout for offshore PSC structures. As the replacement ratio of GGBS increased, the flowability of the grout increased and both intial and final setting times of grout was delayed regardless of cement type. However, the effects of GGBS on the bleeding of grout were different according to the type of cement: as the ratio of GGBS increased, less bleeding was observed for the grout with typeⅠ cement whereas higher bleeding was generated for the grout with type Ⅲ cement. However, there was no significant difference in their compressive strength at 28 day according the different replacement ratio of GGBS from 0 to 40%.

GFRP 보강근의 역학적 성능은 고온과 콘크리트의 알칼리 환경에서 크게 감소된다. 본 연구에서는 GFRP 보강근이 열손상 뒤, 알칼리 환경에 추가로 노출되었을 때의 계면전단강도변화를 고찰하는데 집중하였다. 이를 위하여 GFRP 보강근 시편은 270도의 열에 1시간동안 노출된 후 알칼리 용액에 장기간 노출되었으며, 전단시험에 의하여 파괴되었다. 비교를 위하여 열손상이 없는 시편도 같은 기간 동안 알칼리 용액에 노출된 후 전단에 의하여 파괴되었다. 결과에서, 열손상을 받은 GFRP보강근의 계면전단강도의 감소가 열손상이 없는 보강근 보다 훨씬 큰 것으로 나타났다. 본 실험을 근거로 하여, 열손상을 미리 받은 GFRP 보강근이 알칼리에 노출되었을 때, 장기 잔존계면전단강도의 예측을 위한 2차식을 제시하였다.
