이 연구는 탄소섬유시트의 보강겹수에 따른 I형 PFRP 휨부재의 휨보강 효과를 조사하기 위해 길이 600mm의 PFRP 휨부재와 상하부 플랜지에 1mm 두께의 탄소섬유시트로 보강하여 휨실험을 수행하였다. 또한, 탄소섬유시트의 보강겹수와 보강 위치에 따른 I형 PFRP 휨부재의 휨보강 효과와 단면 감소량에 대해 조사하였다. 그 결과 2겹으로 보강하였을 때 휨강도와 휨강성이 증가함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, four point bending tests were carried out to analyse flexural strengthening effect by CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) layers for I shape PFRP (Pultruded Fiber Reinforced polymer) flexural member retrofitted with CFRP sheet. Comparing load-displacement relation and sectional stress distribution, the flexural strengthening effect by the number of CFRP layers was founded.

Fiber reinforced polymeric plastic (FRP) materials have many advantages over conventional structural materials, i.e., high specific strength and stiffness, high corrosion resistance, right weight, etc. Among the various manufacturing methods, pultrusion process is one of the best choices for the mass production of structural plastic members. Since the major reinforcing fibers are placed along the axial direction of the member, this material is usually considered as an orthotropic material. However, pultruded FRP (PFRP) structural members have low modulus of elasticity and are composed of orthotropic thin plate components the members are prone to buckle. Therefore, stability is an important issue in the design of the pultruded FRP structural members. Many researchers have conducted related studies to publish the design method of FRP structures and recently, referred to the previous researches, pre-standard for LRFD of pultruded FRP structures is presented. In this paper, the accuracy and suitability of design equation for the local buckling strength of pultruded FRP I-shape compression members presented by ASCE are estimated. In the estimation, we compared the results obtained by design equation, closed-form solution, and experiments conducted by previous researches.

Pultruded FRP can be regarded as an orthotropic material due to its manufacturing process that pull-out fibers impregnated with polymeric resin, which is suitable to produce structural member with unlimited lengths of reinforced polymer structural shapes with a various shape of cross-section. However, fiber distribution in the cross-section is not uniform because of the characteristics of pultrusion process. Therefore, random fiber distribution causes the difference of the modulus of elasticity throughout the cross-section. In this paper, closed-form local buckling analysis is conducted on the pultruded FRP I-shape compression members. The mechanical properties used to analytical investigations are obtained from the coupon test. The coupon test specimens are taken from the pultruded FRP I-shape member. Moreover, the local buckling tests of pultruded FRP I-shape members are conducted and test results are compared with the analytical results.

In recent years, fiber reinforced polymer plastic composites are readily available in the construction industry. Fiber reinforced polymer composite has many advantages such as high specific strength and high specific stiffness, high corrosion resistance, light-weight, magnetic transparency, etc. In this paper, we present the result of investigation pertaining to the flexural behavior of flange strengthened I-shape pultruded fiber reinforced polymer plastic (PFRP) member using carbon fiber sheet (CFRP sheet). Test variable is consisted of the number of layers of strengthening CFRP sheet from 0 to 3. From the experimental results, flexural strengthening effect of flange strengthened I-shape PFRP member using CFRP sheet is evaluated and it was found that 2 layers of strengthening CFRP sheet are appropriate considering efficiency and workability.

펄트루젼 FRP 구조용 부재는 많은 유용한 역학적, 물리적 성질 때문에 토목분야에서 구조부재의 매력적인 대체부 재로 고려될 수 있다. 그러나 펄트루젼 FRP는 탄성계수가 상대적으로 낮고, 부재의 단면이 복부와 플렌지 등의 얇 은 판요소로 구성되어 있기 때문에 압축재로 설계할 때 구조적인 안정성은 매우 중요한 고려사항이 된다. 따라서, 압축을 받는 구조용 부재의 설계를 위해, 판요소의 좌굴 및 후좌굴강도를 고려해야 한다. AISC/LRFD의 강구조 설 계기준에서는, 후좌굴강도에 추가적인 단면 내 일정하지 않은 응력분포의 영향을 형상계수(form factor)를 사용하여 고려하고 있다. 이 논문에서는 압축력을 받는 펄트루젼 FRP 구조용 부재의 형상계수를 해석적으로 연구하였으며, 형상계수를 설정하는 과정에 대하여 제안하였다.
