Numerical behavior of GFRP(Fiber Reinforced Polymer) infill panel in steel frame structure was evaluated through the finite element analysis in this study. In order to numerical analysis, a experimental test results was used to develop a three dimensional finite element model of steel frame specimen. Based on the developed three dimensional finite element model of steel frame specimen, the behavior of GFRP infill panel in the steel frame specimen was evaluated.

When reinforcing an existing reinforced concrete beam-column building with a precast concrete panel, special connection between the PC member and the RC member is required to solve the time dependent deformation of the RC member and to receive the large shear forces. The aim of this study is to obtain the shear strength of upper connection between the existing RC beam-column and infilled PC wall panels in experimentally and theoretically. Thus, the static shear loading tests were conducted on the 6 specimens with the plate connection. Shear failure was resulted from the weakest portion of interior PC panel, exterior RC, and the connection, when the PC portion which located at the center of specimen was pulled upward from the bottom. The experimental result was compared with analytical result from ACI 318M-14 Chapter 17 for the shear strength of post-installed anchor and PCI Handbook 7th edition 6.8 Structural Steel Corbel (PCI Design Handbook 7th edition, 2010) for the strength of cast-in H-beam. The analytical and experimental results show final failure at the same location. The failure loading of experiment showed larger than average 6% to that of the analysis.

In this study, to evaluate the performance of fire resistance of the mortar with magnesium hydroxide(MH) and aluminium hydroxide(AH) which has a RCC (Radiant Control Capability) as repair material to the steel structure, temperature evaluation of mortar was conducted by increasing 500°C in the furnace. The performance of RCC can decrease a temperature to external and internal mortar. As a result, it is confirmed that temperatures of mortar with magnesium hydroxide(MH) and aluminium hydroxide(AH) were more decreased than general mortar due to the RCC effect of MH and AH. Therefore, it can be possible to apply to a repair material at the steel structure.

In Korea, Small-size buildings are not performed structural calculation. Also it does not assess the safety about lateral loads such like earthquake. In this study, We proposed the steel column bases that can be applied to small buildings. And We analyzed the Steel Column Bases flexural behavior.

This study compares the steel column-base plate connections to improve the flexural capacity of small building. In addition, performance level was evaluated by example building. Analysis results, an additional reinforcement is required to the proposed steel column-base plate connection. And then, We should compared the impact of beam-column joints.

This experiment can maximize the decline of the heat on steel structure by using the magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide which generally used to resistant or retardant. These materials can delay a temperature rise due to the generation of vapors around the fire resistive covering, when reacting with heat by a creating moisture. Therefore, applicability of the fire resistance mortar used magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide was studied and experimented. As a result, in case of the workability is satisfied with the condition of site, but in case of the bonding strength is not satisfied with the standard with fire resistance mortar.

Durability and structural safety of steel structure are severely affected by corrosion caused by deicer material as well as by airborne chlorides in the marine environment. In this study, based on analysis of current status it is suggested that deterioration and durability reduction by the environmental factor such as chlorides should be more reasonably taken into consideration for the accurate inspection and condition evaluation of steel structures.

Through Estimation of stress distribution, both value and location of the maximum stress can be found. and the maximum stress is very important indicator for structural safety evaluation. In this connection, a lot of studies to estimate stress distributions are conducted. But studies on the optimal number and location of measurement points are few. So, In this study, the effects of the number and location of measurement points on the estimation stress distribution for the steel beam structure using motion capture system and cubic smoothing spline interpolation are researched.

In this study, applicability for the track structure with steel sleeper, to investigate alternatives that can reduce bearing force of track and maintenance costs.

최근 예상 이외의 비정상 하중에 의한 구조 부재의 국부적인 손실이 주변 부재의 파괴로 이어지는 연쇄붕괴에 관한 피해가 빈번해 지고 있다. 이러한 연쇄적인 붕괴를 일으키는 하중은 일반적인 구조설계 과정에서 고려하는 하중이 아닌 비정상 사건에 의한 우발적 하중으로 인하여 주로 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 극한 해석의 하계 정리를 기본으로 한 선형계획법(Compact Procedure Method)을 이용하여 건축물의 하중에 대한 하중지지능력에 대해서 검토하였다. 건축물의 수평 변위 제어에 널리 사용되는 벨트트러스와 브레이스의 설치 유·무에 따른 하중 지지 능력의 변화추이를 검토하였다. 또한, 우발적 외력에 의한 부재의 손실이 건축물의 하중 지지 능력에 미치는 영향에 대해서도 검토하였다.
