This study proposed a seismic reinforcement of RC columns with non-seismic details, a fiber reinforcement method of aramid sheets and MLCP (high elasticity aromatic polyester fiber material) with different characteristics, and 4 full-size column specimens and conducted experiments. The results show that a non-seismic specimen (RC-Orig) rapidly lost its load-bearing capacity after reaching the maximum load, and shear failure occurred. The RC column reinforced with three types of aramid did not show an apparent increase in strength compared to the unreinforced specimen but showed a ductile behavior supporting the load while receiving a lateral displacement at least 1.57 to 1.95 times higher than the unreinforced specimen. The fracture mode of the specimen, according to the application of lateral load, also changed from shear to ductile fracture through aramid-based reinforcement. In addition, when examining the energy dissipation ability of the reinforced specimens, a ductile behavior dissipating seismic energy performed 4 times greater and more stably than the existing specimens.

Along with the development of the automobile industry, the materials and processing technology of parts have also developed. In particular, various materials have been developed and applied to automobile bumpers, which are directly related to crash safety. In particular, the application of composite materials is expanding for weight reduction. In this study, a new composite material made of a mixture of carbon fiber and aramid fiber was developed and the possibility of application to an automobile bumper was reviewed, and significant results were obtained.

In recent, fiber-reinforced composites have been widely used in many fields because of their excellent performance. In order to manufacture lightweight, high-performance, and inexpensive composites various laminated structures were designed. Six types of hybrid composites were fabricated with glass/basalt/aramid fibers by VARTM process. The effect of the laminated structure on the mechanical properties of composites was investigated through impact energy, tensile and bending strength. Compared to other conditions more higher impact energy was obtained when the aramid fibers were in the center position and more higher bending strength was obtained when the fibers are laminated in the order of increasing bending performance from top to bottom. The laminate structure did not affect tensile strength which mainly depends on the property of fibers.

내진설계기준이 개정됨에 따라 기 시공된 철근콘크리트 건축구조물의 내진보강에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 특히 내진철근상세가 적용되지 않은 철근콘크리트 기둥의 경우 지진이 발생할 경우 취성적인 전단파괴가 발생할 가능성이 크다. 본 연구에서는 아라미드 FRP를 이용하여 비내진상세 철근콘크리트 기둥의 휨 및 전단내력 보강 후, 실험체를 반복횡하중 가력하여 아라미드 FRP의 내력 상승효과 및 연성능력의 증가를 확인하였다. 무보강 및 아라미드 FRP 보강 실험체를 비교 한 결과 아라 미드 FRP 보강이 비내진상세 철근콘크리트 기둥의 내력을 증가시키고 연성능력 또한 증가시킴을 확인하였다. 또한 비내진상세 철근콘크리트 기둥의 아라미드 FRP 보강 시 기둥 뿐만 아니라 접합부의 보강 또한 필요함을 확인하였다.

Recently, redevelopment and reconstruction projects have caused problems such as depletion of natural aggregates, and the use of recycled aggregate is being reevaluated as an optimal alternative. Therefore, in this study, the mechanical and deformation characteristics of Environment-Friendly Recycled Coarse Aggregate (here after, EFRCA) concrete reinforced with para-aramid fiber with high strength and high elasticity are examined. The experimental main parameters were EFRCA replacement ratio (0, 30 and 50%) and para-aramid fiber volume fraction (0, 0.75 and 1.0%). Experimental results show that the EFRCA concrete has lower compressive strength than plain concrete. However, compared with the natural aggregate, the EFRCA concrete, which exhibited low material properties, showed almost the same performance as plain concrete, such as increased flexural strength and improved ductility by incorporating para-aramid fibers. Through the experiment, it is considered that the most suitable para-aramid volume fraction is 0.75%. Based on these results, the experimental results related to the performance degradation of EFRCA concrete containing para-aramid fibers are secured and basic data for determining the reuse possibility and reinforcement method of structures are presented.

The bond strength is not enough due to the delaminate of epoxy between FRP and steel. However, the adhesion reinforcement method can improve the bond strength between steel plate and FRP plate. In this study, a bolt tighting and FRP sheet wrapping methods were used to improve bond strength between steel plate and FRP plate. Also, flexural test were performed according to the attachment pattern for AFRP plate strengthened steel beams.

The paper presents an experimental result to characterize the behaviour of steel beams reinforcement by pultruded reinforced polymer strips. Steel beam members reinforced with different thick AFRP on bottom flange plate were tested under one point bending configuration. Test results showed that the member force of one ply reinforced specimen was increased as 11% than control specimen when the two ply overlapped specimen was increased as 14% as usual.

This study focused on the static behavior of steel beams reinforcement by AFRP sheets. The main objective of the experimental programme was the evaluation of the force transfer mechanism, the increment of the beam load carrying capacity and the bending stiffness. A bending test was conducted on a H-shaped steel beam, with aramid FRP sheets bonded to its flanges. The mid-span deflection and the strain from three points along AFRP sheets were recorded Test results exhibit that the increment of the load-carrying capacity with reference to a mid-span deflection level of 15 mm(1/125mm of the clear span) was equal to 9.4% and for the two layers case, an elastic stiffness increment is slightly higher than one layer case.

In this study, structural tests were performed for the para-aramid fiber-reinforced RC beams using Recycled Coarse Aggregates (RCA) according to the main parameters which are RCA replacement ratio (0 and 30%) and para-aramid fiber volume fraction (0, 0.75 and 1.0%). Experimental results show that by reinforcing para-aramid fibers, compared with the natural coarse aggregate, the RCA, which exhibited low structural performance, improved load carrying capacity and ductility.

This paper presents the experimental results of flexural behavior of steel beam strengthened with Aramid fiber reinforced polymer plastic (FRP) strips subjected to static bending loading. Two H-beams were fabricated strengthened with aramid strips and one control specimen were also fabricated. Among of strengthened specimens, one specimen was strengthened with partial length of AFRP. From the test, it was observed that maximum increase of 16% was also achieved in bending-load capacity.

The purpose of this study is determining the effects of flexural behavior of aramid fibers in ultra high performance concrete. The 10 kinds of aramid fibers with different length, diameter and twisting were used. The flexural behavior was determined by bending tests on specimens, which was prepared by mixing 1 % of volume fractions of aramid fibers into ultra high performance concrete mortar. Consequently, the load-displacement relationship curves were obtained by using the test results for each kinds of aramid. While the specimen that contains the small diameter of aramid fiber gives the strong flexural strength due to large contact area between the fiber and concrete matrix, that specimen by small diameter of aramid fiber does not guarantee the ductile behavior of specimen like the steel fiber. But the length and twisting of aramid fiber gives the ductile behavior of ultra high performance concrete flexural specimen.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of improvement on the impact resistance and strength properties of cement composites by surface modification of aramid fiber. For aramid fiber reinforced cement composites, therefore, dispersion capability and the bonding efficiency between the fibers and the cement composite material need to be improved. It is possible by modifying surface properties to hydrophobic, it is considered that oiling agent ratio of 1.2 % and improvement of performance is in need to be investigated. In this study, short aramid fibers were mixed by different fiber length and oiling agent ratio. And improvement of strength properties and impact resistance performance of hybrid cement composites were evaluated under the influence of steel fiber. As a result, strength properties of aramid fiber reinforced cement composites are different by mixing ratio of fiber, oiling agent ratio and length of fiber. In case of cement composites which have same volume fraction and fiber length, tensile strength and flexural strength were improved with increase of the emulsions throughput of the fiber surface. The results of evaluation on the static strength properties had effects on impact resistance performance by high-velocity impact. And it was observed that the scabbing of rear was suppressed with increase of the oiling agent ratio.
