This paper describes the experimental results for the structural performance of full-scale coupling beams with different reinforcement layout (diagonal and horizontal). For the reinforcements of the coupling beams, high-strength steel bars(SD500 and SD600) were used in order to improve workability and economic feasibility. The rigid steel frames and linked joints were used to maintain the clear span length (distance between both shear walls) of the coupling beam during the cyclic loading. Experimental results indicated that the diagonally reinforced coupling beam specimen could exhibit more ductile behavior compared to horizontally reinforced specimen. ACI318-14 code is applicable to design of coupling beam with diagonally reinforcement, however, that is overestimating the strength of horizontally reinforced coupling beam. It is remarkable that effective elastic stiffness values of both reinforcement details coupling beam significantly lees than ASCE 41-13.

In the sliding slab track of railway bridge, a lateral support block is used to control the lateral displacement. Therefore, it is important to analyze the behavior of dowel rebar and the lateral support block of the sliding slab track. In this study, high strength concrete and steel rebar was selected to analyze the behavior of dowel rebar and shear behavior of high strength dowel rebar and the lateral support block were compared to the equations developed by Soroushian et al. (1986) and CEB-FIP (2010).

Non-destructive test is using rebound hardness and ultrasonography generally. They generate a difference with Core compressive strength in estimation of compressive strength because they are indirectly. Therefor, Inter-rater Reliability analysis was performed to evaluate the reliability of Non-destructive Method. Reliability analysis, while there is correlation two times only between the rebound hardness method and Core compressive strength in total eight cases but ultrasonography method has six times. so ultrasonography method is more reliable than Rebound hardness method.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact on flexural strength and compressive strength of the concrete, the mixing rate of the amorphous fibers.

To examine the in-place strength development of concrete of nuclear containment structures with the wall thickness of 1200 mm, mock-up wall specimens were prepared. For maturity evaluation, the temperature rise in the wall specimens owing to hydration heat of cementitious materials was also measured. The in-place strength of concrete was measured using core specimens collected at different locations of mock-up walls. Test results showed that in-place compressive strength development was 1.5 times higher than the strength measured from the standard cylinders. This indicates the maturity effect is needed to be considered in predicting the compressive strength development of concrete in mass structures.

This paper reports the test results of the floating floor system used to reduce the floor noise of apartment buildings. Recently, many soft resilient materials placing between the reinforced concrete slab and finishing mortar are used. The resilient material should not only reduce the floor impact sound vibration from the floor but also support the load on the floor. Thus, even if soft resilient materials satisfy the maximum limitation of light-weight impact sound and heavy-weight impact sound, these materials may not support the load on the floor. The experimental program involved conducting sixteen sound insulation floating floor specimens. Three main parameters were considered in the experimental investigation: resilient materials, loading location, and layers of floor. Experimental results indicated that the stiffness of resilient material significantly influenced on the structural behavior of floating floor system. In addition, the deflection of the floating concrete floor loaded at the side or coner of the specimen was greater than that of the floor loaded at the center of the specimen. However, the aerated concrete did not effect on the cracking strength of floating floor system.

In recent, high performance concrete structures can be developed using Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) which has mainly high compressive and tensile strength. Therefore, in reinforced concrete (RC) structures, it is possible to reduce structural elements and the cost of construction by reducing the amount of concrete and steel bars. This study compared and evaluated bending performances of RC and UHPC beams respectively and examined the design suitability of UHPC flexural members.

본 논문은 기존 수중 콘크리트 구조물의 강도관리 및 진단기술의 중요성은 날로 증가함에 따라 개발되고 있는 ROV (Remote Control Vehicle)에 탑재될 수 있는 비파괴 검사 장비를 개발하여 콘크리트 내부의 강도측정을 하고자하였다. 수중화된 슈미트해머와 초음파센서를 통하여 수중에 있는 콘크리트 공시체의 반발경도 및 초음파속도를 계측하여 실제 압축강도 값과 비교하였으며 이를 통하여 수중에서의 강도추정식을 도출하였다. 도출된 3가지 식 중에서 반발경도와 초음파속도를 복합적으로 사용하는 복합식이 가장 정확도가 높았으며 이에 따라 실제 수중에서의 콘크리트의 강도를 추정하고자 할 때 활용 가능성도 높아질 것으로 예상된다.

In this study, rational prediction models for the effective compressive strengths of HSC corner and interior columns with intervening NSC slabs are developed. A structural analogy between HSC column-NSC slab joint and brick masonry is used to develop the prediction models. In addition, the aspect ratio of slab thickness to column dimension and the surrounding slab confinement effect are considered in the models. The proposed prediction model is verified by comparison with experimental results and various prediction expressions. As a result, with average test-to-predicted ratios of 1.00 for HSC corner columns and 1.09 for interior columns, the proposed equation provides superior predictions over all of the existing effective strength prediction approaches including KCI structural concrete design code(2012).

최근 초장대 교량, 초고층 빌딩 등 토목 및 건축 분야에서 초고강도 콘크리트에 대한 수요가 날로 증가추세에 있다. 특히 초고층 건축물 건립에 따른 고강도 콘크리트 사용이 증가함에 따라 화재시 폭렬현상 등 내화성능 저하에 대한 대책마련의 일환으로 설계기준강도 50MPa 이상의 고강도 콘크리트에 대하여 내화성능관리기준을 법령으로 제정하여 시행하고 있다. 이에 따라 고강도 콘크리트의 내화성능 확보를 위한 연구가 다수 진행되었지만, 100 MPa 이상의 초고강도 콘크리트에 관한 연구는 거의 전무한 실정이다. 초고강도 콘크리트의 경우 내부 조직이 고강도 콘크리트에 비해 훨씬 더 치밀하여 고강도 콘크리트에 적용되는 일반적인 내화 방안으로는 화재시 내부 수증기의 배출이 어렵다. 뿐만 아니라, 화재시 또는 화재후의 구조적 성능에도 일반적인 고강도 콘크리트와는 다른 양상을 나타낼 수 있어 이에 관한 연구가 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 화재 상황 하에서 초고강도 콘크리트 기둥이 소정의 하중을 지지할 수 있는 구조 성능의 확보 방안을 모색하고자 하였다.
