This paper presents experimental results for applicability of Fe-based shape memory alloy(Fe-SMA) as near surface mounted(NSM) reinforcement . Three reinforced concrete beams with a width of 300 mm and a height of 200 mm were fabricated for the study. Reinforcement(Non-Reinforced, Reinforced), Activation(Non-Activation, Activation) were considered as experimental variable. Specimens, which reinforced with Fe-SMA have 50% less deflection then non reinforced specimen on 10kN load. Specimens, which activated Fe-SMA has 38% less additional deflection then non activated specimen in 2 weeks.

The flexural behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with an iron based-shape memory alloys strip(Fe-SMAs) by a near-surface mounted (NSM) method was evaluated. The pre-strained values of 0% and 4% and introduced prestressing force by an activation of a shape memory effect of the Fe-SMA strengthening material were considered as experimental variables. The experimental results show a large increase in initial stiffness of beams reinforced with 4% pre-strain. On the contrary, The effect of prestressing seems to be insignificant on the yielding and ultimate loads of tensile bars.

표면매립공법으로 매립한 철계-형상기억합금으로 보강한 보의 휨 거동을 장기 하중 재하실험을 통해 평가하였다. 철계-형상기억 합금 길이대비 2%와 4%의 사전변형 및 형상기억효과 활성화에 의한 프리스트레스 하중 도입을 실험변수로 설정하였다. 1 tonf의 콘크리트 추를 보 중앙에 거치한 후 6개월간의 보 중앙부의 장기 처짐을 측정하였다. 실험결과, 철계-형상기억합금으로 보강한 보의 휨 강성이 증대되었으며, 사전변형이 증가할수록 보강재의 강성감소로 인한 처짐이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 프리스트레스 하중 도입에 따른 처짐을 비교했을 때, 프리스트레스 하중을 도입하지 않은 실험체에 비해, 프리스트레스 하중을 도입한 실험체는 약 30%의 처짐 감소 효과를 보이는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper reports the absorption capacity of super-absorbent polymer (SAP) in water and cement pore solution. This was considered for the free water requirement for self-desiccation when the amount of internal water reduced. The physical state of particles selected from a super-absorbent polymer sample with a particle size distribution 150 μm (SAP-I) and less than 850 μm (SAP-II) monomers acrylic acid were tested at SAP 0.1g contents and time in minute 0.5, 1, 3, 5, 10, 30, and 60. The test was determined by using tea bag test method. As a result, the size of the polymers particles has a significant effect on the absorption kinetics of these polyacrylate-based polymers.

This study presents a technique for measuring the local strain of RC columns using high strength materials. A acrylic rod with strain gauges at intervals of 5 mm were embedded in high-strength RC columns. Under uniaxial compression loading, the local strain of the column was measured with strain gauges attached to the acrylic rod. It was confirmed from experimental results that the technique applied in this study is very effective in measuring the local strain of high-strength RC columns and the compressive failure of the high-strength RC columns is concentrated in some local regions.

This study evaluates a prestressing effect of reinforced concrete (RC) beam strengthened with a pre-strained iron shape-memory alloy (Fe-SMA) strip. A pre-strained value was chosen as experimental variable to investigated the prestressing effect on the RC beams. A recovery stress on the pre-strained Fe-SMA strip occurred by heating, when the deformation of the strip was restricted. The recovery stress introduced a compressive force to the surrounding concrete, resuting in the upward deflection (camber effect). With this finiding from experimental tests, it could be concluded that the Fe-SMA strip can be used as the strengthening material to strengthen the damaged structure and to increase its durability.

본 논문은 SIFCON으로 제작된 휨부재의 휨거동에 대한 실험적·해석적 연구결과를 제시한다. 우선, 12개의 SIFCON 보에 대한 휨실험을 실시하고 휨거동을 평가하였다. 실험변수로는 강섬유 종류, 인장철근 유·무, 단면의 높이를 고려하였다. Type-A 강섬유보다 뽐힘저항성이 우수한 Type-B 강섬유를 사용한 시험체는 전단파괴가 발생하지 않고 휨파괴 거동을 보였으며, 강섬유 형상비는 인장철근을 사용하지 않는 SIFCON 보의 거동에 큰 영향을 주었으나 인장철근을 갖는 SIFCON 보의 거동에 대해서는 그 영향이 매우 미미하게 나타났다. 추가적으로 본연구에서는 SIFCON에 대한 휨강도 예측식을 제시하였다. 휨강도 예측값에 대한 실험값의 비의 평균과 표준편차가 각각 1.02와 0.04로 나타나 휨강도 예측식은 SIFCON 보의 설계 및 성능 평가에 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

In the case of fluid storage structure, hydrostatic pressure acts on the structure due to fluid surge during an earthquake. At this time, hydrodynamic pressure of the fluid charge not only by the strength of the earthquake but also by the sloshing height of the fluid. Factors affecting the change of load include the size, width and height of the fluid storage structure and height of fluid, time-history shape, etc. This paper wanted to identify the relationship between the earthquake shape and fluid free surface shape. The sloshing height measured the height of the fluid by applying earthquake to a tank whose width 500mm and comparison of the experiment and analysis. In addition, the shape of the fluid free surface was measured while varying the shape of earthquake and effective of the shape of earthquake of the fluid was analyzed.

In this paper, the bond stress of Fe based Shape Memory Alloy(Fe-SMA) with near surface mounted strengthening was investigated. An lab-shear test using Fe-SMA strips glued with cementitious matrix was performed to evaluate bond stress. Bond length (250 mm, 350 mm, 450 mm) was considered as experimental variable. The bond stress and utilization of Fe-SMA are 1.487MPa and 80%, respectively, at the bond length of 450 mm.

In this paper, internal thermal stresses of the cementitious matrix were evaluated by incorporating polypropylene fibers. By using the temperature heating method specified in KS F 2257-1, the temperatures by a depth were measured. Thermal stress was calculated based on Kodur's thermal stress formula. Different thermal stress behaviors were observed depending on amount of PP fiber. Thas, it will become fundamental data to analyze the thermal stresses behavior of structure members subjected to higher temperature.

The purpose of this research is to develop a joint system for two concrete pipes with reduced wall thickness by a carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) fabric. As compared to conventional concrete pipe, the concrete pipe with the reduced wall thickness has more flexibility. However, the reduced wall thickness makes the conventional joint system not feasible. As an alternative joint, externally wrapping system with the CFRP fabric was proposed. The two CFRP widths (75mm and 150mm) were accounted for as a variable under joint shear test from ASTM C497M specification. The externally wrapping system showed 81.07% higher shear strength, as compared to the required shear strength by ASTM C497M.
