이 논문에서는 내구성이 우수한 것으로 알려져 있는 펄트루젼 FRP의 습도 노출 및 동결 융해 영향을 검토하고, 이에 따른 국부좌굴강도 영향을 검토하기 위한 해석적 연구를 수행하였다. FRP는 일반적으로 내구성이 우수하다고 알려져 있기 때문 에, 해양 구조물 등 습윤환경에서 적용하기 위한 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있으며, 특히 구조용 부재로 제작되는 펄트루젼 FRP 부재는 하절기와 동절기의 온도변화에 노출되기 때문에 이에 대한 검토가 필요하다. 펄트루젼 FRP의 습도 노출 및 동결 융해 영향은 기존 연구의 실험 결과를 참고하였으며, 국부좌굴강도는 정밀해법을 통해 영향을 검토하였다. 검토 결과 펄트루젼 FRP 는 습도노출 및 동결융해의 영향으로 인해 최대 약 20%의 인장강도 및 탄성계수 변화를 나타내었으나, 국부좌굴강도는 약 3% 로 그 영향이 상대적으로 작은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 온도이력 및 습윤환경에서도 펄트루젼 FRP는 국부좌굴강도의 큰 변화 를 나타내지 않고 높은 내구성을 나타낼 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In recent years, the Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer Plastic (GFRP) structural shapes are available in civil engineering applications. Among many manufacturing techniques used for GFRP structural shapes, pultrusion process is one of the most widely used techniques to produce the structural members in civil engineering applications. This study was focused on the mechanical behavior of singly bolted lap-joint connection with various hole clearances (tight-fit: 0.5mm, 1.0mm, 1.5mm, 2.0mm, 3.0mm) in Pultruded GFRP structural members. The specimens with single bolt-hole have been tasted in tension under bolt-loading conditions. The failed specimens were examined for their failure load and fracture patterns with respect to the various hole clearances.

Fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) structural shapes are readily available in civil engineering applications. Among many manufacturing techniques used for FRP structural shapes, pultrusion process is one of the most widely used techniques in civil engineering applications. Pultrusion is a manufacturing process for producing continuous lengths of reinforced polymeric plastic structural shapes with constant cross-section. Pultruded composites are attractive for structural applications because of their continuous mass production with excellent mechanical properties. This paper presents the results of investigations pertaining to the bolted connection with two bolts for the pultruded FRP (PFRP) structural members. PFRP bolted connection tests were conducted with end distance to bolt diameter ratio (e1/db) and two types of bolt pattern such as horizontal (Pattern A) and vertical arrangement (Pattern B). As a result, it is found that the e1/db is recommended as the ratio of 4. In addition, it is also found that the bearing strengths at failure of the Pattern A and Pattern B have a similar value.

In this paper, we present the results of experimental investigation pertaining to the structural behavior of Tee joint connection composed of pultruded I-shape FRP members. In this study, we focus on the evaluation of load carrying capacity of Tee joint which appeared frequently to fabricate framed structure composed of pultruded FRP members. Through the experimental investigation moment-rotation relationship is found and the result is used to estimate the rotaion stiffness.

In this paper, we present the result of investigations pertaining to the development of links between unit modules of the floating type photovoltaic energy generation system made of Pultruded FRP. Since the FRP has an excellent corrosion-resistance and high specific strength and stiffness, the FRP material may be highly appreciated for the development of the floating type photovoltaic energy generation system. we discussed the development concepts of the link between unit module of floating type photovoltaic energy generation system made of PFRP, tire, and synthetic fiber, briefly. The floating type photovoltaic energy generation system linked between unit modules is installed successfully at sea site.

Pultruded FRP (Pultruded Fiber Reinforced Polymeric Plastic, PFRP) members have many advantages such as high strength and stiffness, high corrosion resistance, light weight, etc. However, it has relatively low modulus of elasticity and also cross-section of the structural shapes is composed of thin plate components. Therefore, global buckling, local buckling, and post-buckling strengths should be considered in the design of compression members. In the structural steel design following AISC/LRFD, this effect, in addition to the buckling strength, is incorporated with a form factor. In this study, referring to AISC/LRFD, form factor for the design of I-shape and Box-shape PFRP members under compression has been suggested and discussed through the analytical study.

This study is pertaining to the connection of pultruded FRP members. When we design the structure using pultruded FRP members, it is very important to connect one member to other member under the condition that could maintain the required strength for structural safety. However, there are not any codes related with the connection of pultruded FRP members. Therefore, it is ambiguous how to connect each member. The pull-out tests are conducted of two different specimens and test results are analyzed for offering basic data used for making codes related with connection.
