PURPOSES : When fire event occurs in tunnel the reinforced concrete is exposed to very high temperature at a very short time period. This study investigates the tensile behavior of steel rebar that experienced high temperature. METHODS : The steel rebar was exposed to 200, 400, 600, and 800℃ following the ISO 834 temperature-time fire curve. Hightemperature- exposed steel rebars were tested using the UTM for their yielding and tensile strengths, and elongation rate. RESULTS : Up to an exposure temperature of 600℃, the tensile properties of the rebar did not vary considerably. However, at 800℃ (which corresponds to a temperature rise time of approximately 22 min), the rebar lost its yielding and tensile strength by approximately 27 and 13%, respectively, compared to the control specimen. Further, the elongation rate increased after exposure to 600℃. The above fundamental tensile test results can be a good reference for future guidelines in the repair manual for tunnels after severe fire events. CONCLUSIONS : When steel rebar experiences high temperatures of 800℃, the yield strength of the rebar reduces approximately 27%. This strength reduction can cause severe structural damage to tunnels that use reinforced concrete as the primary structural elements.

In this study, Rebar of SD500, SD600 is applied to the designed or constructed in domestic apartment. Analyzed the variation of the rebar according to the strength of the rebar and the construction cost of the change. Reinforced volume reduction of the apartment building is less than the other. Because, A low wall of rebar reduction is more than 50% of the total. The reason for the previous, Reduction of the quantity of horizontal reinforcement does not appear and Vertical rebar reinforcement than the stress is determined by the placement of rebar in which the upper floor.

In this study, Rebar of SD500, SD600 is applied to the designed or constructed in domestic underground parking. Analyzed the variation of the rebar according to the strength of the rebar and the construction cost of the change. Most of underground parking appear reduction of Rebar ratio. In this case, the load acting on the underground parking garage is large. So, Rebar placing is dominated by element's stress. Therefore, Large amounts material of slabs, beams and foundations are reduced. In case of columns and wall, Ratio of Material reduction is less than former. Because Splice and Anchorage of rebar amounts are increased and Hoop and horizontal rebar amounts are fixed. Percentage of rebar of the column and wall are 15%. So, Showed a less impact on the reduction of total material.

Six concrete beam specimens reinforced with multiple layers of reinforcement and combinations of different reinforcement types (steel, GFRP, and CFRP bars), and four FRP bar-reinforced concrete beams with fibers were constructed and tested. An investigation was performed on load-carrying capacity, post cracking stiffness, cracking pattern, and ductility for all specimens. Addition of fibers and hybrid reinforcing with steel bars can be possible methods to overcome the low stiffness and ductility of FRP bar-reinforced beams.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of reinforcement arrangements on the high strength of concrete and to present the quantitative values. To complete this research, two types of concrete strengths (40 MPa and 60 MPa), two types of reinforcing bar diameters (10 ㎜ and 13 ㎜), and seven types of specimens with or without reinforcement arrangements were prepared and tested for compressive strength. As a result, the strength of the cores containing the reinforcement can be predicted to have 82% - 94% of the strength of the cores without reinforcement.

The purpose of this study is to establish a reasonable analytical method for the estimation of overall behavior characteristic from cracking to yielding of rebar and crushing of concrete and seismic performance of reinforced concrete shear wall with high-strength reinforcing bar. A total of 8 specimens of reinforced concrete walls which have constant aspect ratio and a variety of variables such as reinforcement ratio, reinforcement yielding strength, reinforcement details, concrete design strength, section shape and whether lateral restraint hoop were selected and the analysis was performed by using a non-linear finite element analysis program (RCAHEST) applying the proposed constitutive equation by the authors. The mean and coefficient of variation for maximum load from the experiment and analysis results was predicted 1.04 and 8%. The mean and coefficient of variation for displacement corresponding maximum load from the experiment and analysis results was predicted 1.17 and 19% respectively. The analytical results were predicted relatively well the fracture mode and the overall behavior until fracture for all specimens. These results are expected to be used as basic data for application of high-strength reinforcing bar to design codes in the future.

Due to the enlargement and high-rise of reinforced concrete structure, the application of high functional material is required. However, high-strength bar is recently introduced to the country and the material is insufficient to measure the variation of quantity of rebar quantitatively when using high-strength bar. For these reasons, this study is to provide useful data in cost decision making when applying high-strength bar at a stage of architectural project planning. For residence-commerce complex buildings, we set up six types of conditions such as in case of using only rebar, in case of using only high-strength bar, in case of using rebar mixed with high-strength bar and so on. With the standard of study model 1 that applies only SD400 regardless of rebar diameter, the analyzed result of rebar variation and the cost change of construction in other study model is as follows. When the rebar amount and cost in study model I was 100%, each ratio was 88.3% and 90.5% in study model II, 80.2% and 83.4% in study model III, 91.9% and 93.5% in study model IV, 88.9% and 87.7% in study model V and 82.4% and 85.5% in study model VI. Therefore, in case of rebar amount and construction cost, study model III was evaluated as the best that was applied only SD600.

This study is to understand the structural behavior of flexural member according to the splice length of specimens reinforced by GFRP reinforcing bar. As compared with reinforcement, GFRP reinforcing bar has superior material properties such as non-corrosiveness, light weight, non-conduction, etc. However, GFRP reinforcing bar is difficult to use instead of reinforcement owing to brittle fracture when it failed. Therefore, GFRP reinforcing bar mixed with deformed reinforcing bar were used. A total of 5 specimen was produced and tested and the test main variables are the diameter of tension steel, lap splice length of GFRP reinforcing bar which are for investigating the reinforcement effects. The diameter of tension steel set as D10, and D13 and the lap splice length of GFRP reinforcing bar set as 30db, 45db and, 60db. The results of the experimental test, the specimen with GFRP reinforcing bar proved more reinforcement effect than the one without GFRP tie bar. At the same time, the specimen with tension steel of D13 increased an overall strength more than the one with tension steel of D10. The longer lap splice length showed increase the strength.
