In this research, the concrete breakout strength in tension of cast-in-place anchors (CIP) is experimentally investigated to be used as fundamental data for the seismic fragility analysis of equipment in nuclear power plants. Experimental variables are chosen, such as the embedment depth of the anchor, single/group anchor configurations, diameter of the head plate, and crack width. Monotonic and cyclic loading are applied to all types of specimens. As measured from the experiments, concrete breakout strength in tension is 1.5 to 2 times higher than the expected strengths from concrete capacity design (CCD) method-based model equations. In alignment with the model’s predictions, concrete breakout strength increases with deeper embedment depth, and the strength of group anchors also increases based on the expansion of the projected concrete failure area. This study also explores the effects of head plate diameter and crack width, which are not considered in the model equation. Experimental results show that the diameter of the head plate is not directly correlated to the concrete breakout strength, whereas the crack width is. The presence of cracks, with widths of 0.3 mm and 0.5 mm, leads to reductions of approximately 7% and 17%, respectively, compared to single anchors in non-cracked concrete.

I형 플레이트 거더는 장경간 구조물, 특히 장경간 교량 및 철도교에 자주 사용되며 리벳 또는 볼트 이음과 같은 방법으로 조립할 수 있고 강판을 용접하여 설계자가 원하는 크기의 거더를 제작할 수 있다. 리벳 또는 볼트를 이용한 연결방식은 시공 중 구조물의 내하력 저하 문제를 피할 수 있고 용접으로 제작된 거더에 비해 유지관리비용이 적다는 장점이 있다. 하지만, 리벳 또는 볼트연결의 경우 하중이 거더에 전달될 때 연결부 주위에 미끄러짐이 발생 할 수 있어 이로 인한 강도감소가 발생할 우려가 있다. 본 연구에서는 유한요소 해석 프로그램을 통해 I형 플레이트 거더의 볼트 이음부의 거동특성을 검토하였다. 또한 수직보강재의 간격이 거더의 강도에 미치는 영향에 대해 검토하였다.

In korea, only small amount of nonstructural lightweight concrete is being used through indirect effects such as heat insulation property and soundproofing rather than structural elements due to lack of structural lightweight aggregates and lack of understanding about lightweight concrete development, etc. That`s why structural lightweight concrete to reduce weight has not been put to practical use. This study is a part of high strength lightweight aggregate concrete researches using lightweight aggregates and the purpose of this study is to find out the basic physical characteristics and tension cracking fracture characteristics of lightweight concrete. Crack Mouth Opening Displacement is measured through 3 point flexure experiment about notch beam. Load-CMOD characteristics are examined through rules of countries, characteristics of lightweight concrete and tension cracking fracture experiments. The degree of tensile characteristic alteration according to size changes of specimen and the characteristics about crack surface are analyzed. The changes of softening curve are analyzed and fracture energy is drawn through inverse analysis by the obtained Load-CMOD curve. To decide fracture energy and analysis parametric, inverse analysis is conducted and Ant Colony Method is conducted for optimization and then a way to find out optimal parameterization fracture energy is suggested.

Measuring the exact cable tension force is important to cable supported bridge under construction and on service. This study was planned to propose EM(electro-magnetic) sensor-based method for measuring the tension force of MS(multi-strand) cable in cable-stayed and extradosed bridge. The tension force in each strand is the same due to MS cable construction using Iso-tensioning system. Therefore, In this prosed method, EM sensor was installed directly at a strand and the measurement model was established for estimating the tension force of strand via EM sensor by experiments. The measurement model was derived from the relation of tension force and magnetic permeability. Also, the magnetic permeability is shown to be different according to the magnetization characteristic of 1860MPa and 2200MPa high-strength strand. The difference is increased as tension force increases. Additional experiment was conducted to verify the measurement model. As a result, the distribution of strand tension calculated upon the EM sensor is similar to those of tension measured by load cell. This proposed approach can be an effective tool for monitoring and measuring the cable force of MS cable.

The clamping of torque shear high strength bolt is induced when the pin-tail is broken. However the tension forces induced shank of the bolt do not be known by now. This study focused to develop a quantitative method to identify the induced tension by analyzing the electric energy of which electric torque wrench (rpm 20) was applied to high strength bolt at the break of pin tail. Based on this co-relation between tension and accumulated current, the regressive analysis was derived. The error rate between tension and accumulated current was 5.06%.

강도 한계상태 설계에서는 균열이 일어난 이후 철근콘크리트 부재의 인장영역에서 철근이 모든 인장력을 부담하는 것으로 가정한다. 그러나 균열 사이의 콘크리트가 실제 콘크리트 부재에서는 특히 사용하중 수준에서의 어느 정도의 인장 응력을 견디는데, 일조 하는 것으로 보고 있다. 이러한 효과를 Tension stiffening 효과라 한다. 본 연구에서는 Tension stiffening 모델과 고강도 철근 콘크리트 보의 휨 실험결과의 비교를 통해 해석모델의 유효성을 평가 하고자 한다. 이를 통해 선정 된 6가지의 Tension stiffening 모델과 실험에 의한 모멘트-곡률, 하중-처짐등을 관계를 평가하였다. 실험결과 설계기준에서는 ACI 318이 Tension stiffening 모델에서는 Owen & Damjanic이 실험 값과 가장 적은 오차율을 보이며 높은 신뢰도를 보였다.

The seismic design range for the national public facilities and power plant is expanded such as it becomes the earthquake Disaster Relief Act with the finance since 2008 as the seismic design concept is highly regarded, etc. The reinforcement of the brace is essential for the seismic performance security of the structure which is unable to be satisfied the current seismic design criteria. The tension brace in which the slenderness ratio is big was designed to the unique lateral force resistive element. And the buckling is generated in the first stage and it is unable to exhibit the structural capability. In this research, the buckling strength improvement the reinforcing method of the suggested tension brace tries to be verified through the experiment.

최근 해양레저에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 요트의 이용과 구매에 대한 관심이 증가됨에 따라 수상 또는 해상의 부유식 구조물이 필요하게 되었으며, 이에 따라 부유식 구조물을 계류하는 방식으로 수중 지반에 커다란 중량 콘크리트 블록을 설치하고 계류삭을 어느 정도 느슨하게 연결하여 계류하는 방식을 사용하고 있다. 하지만 수위차가 나거나 흐름이 있는 곳에서는 부유식구조물 자체가 위치제어가 안되므로, 한곳에 일정하게 머물게 하기 위해서 긴장계류장치(tens

구조물의 보강을 위해 프리스트레스 강선에는 인장력이 도입되는데 이 강선은 덕트 및 편향장치에 의해서 휨을 동시에 받게 된다. 이와 같이 인장과 휨을 동시에 받는 프리스트레스 강선의 굴절인장성능을 평가하기 위해 강선의 직경, 맨드럴 직경, 맨드럴과 강선 사이 마찰계수를 변수로 하여 총 600종에 대한 굴절인장 변수해석을 실시하였다. 해석 결과, 강선의 직경이 클수록 낮은 굴절인장성능을 나타내었고, 그 영향은 강선 연신율의 증가에 따라 감소하였다. 강선의 굴절인장성능에 대한 맨드럴 직경, 맨드럴-강선 간 마찰계수의 영향은 매우 작게 나타났지만, 맨드럴-강연선 간 마찰계수에 대한 추가 해석 결과 상대적으로 높은 상관성을 보였다. 따라서, 굴절인장성능 확보를 위해서는 충분한 연신율 확보가 우선되어야 하고, 연신율 확보에 제약이 있을 시 적정값까지 강선 직경을 감소시켜야 하겠으며, 강선의 표면조건을 조절하여 강선 간 마찰력을 높여야 할 것이다.

Anchors used in concrete structures are classified into cast-in-place anchors and post-installed anchors. At post-installed anchors, the effective embedment depth, measured from the concrete surface to the deepest point, is an important variable to grasp the performance of anchors. Because effective embedment depth is depth to transmit force to the concrete. In this study, we conducted pull-out test of M12 and M16 post-installed anchors, evaluated the performance of anchors.

사용하중상태에서 균열 사이의 콘크리트가 실제 콘크리트 부재에서는 어느 정도의 인장력을 부담하게 되는데 이를 tension stiffening effect라 한다. tension stiffening effect의 영향을 무시하면 균열이 발생한 콘크리트 부재의 해석에 있어 실제 거동과 다를 수 있기 때문에 균열 발생 후의 정확한 해석 및 거동의 평가를 위해서 tension stiffening effect는 반드시 고려되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 tension stiffening effect를 기반으로 하는 6 가지의 tension stiffening 모델을 선정한 후 고강도 철근 콘크리트 보의 휨 실험과의 비교분석을 통해 tension stiffening 모델을 평가하였다. tension stiffening effect에 영향을 주는 주요 인자인 철근비를 변수로 하여 고강도 철근 콘크리트 보 시험체를 제작하여 휨 실험을 하였다. 이를 통해 tension stiffening 모델과 실험에 의한 모멘트-곡률, 하중-처짐 관계등을 평가하였다.
