PURPOSES : In this paper, the measurement criteria was determined by assessing the factors influencing the measurement of bending resonance frequency which is not specified in KS F 2437. METHODS : The durability evaluation analysis of concrete beam specimens was performed immediately after freezing and thawing processes. It is primarily aiming at improving the repeatability and reproducibility of measurement results by providing measurement criteria for various measurement factors that can occur during the collection of resonance frequency data. An independent concrete durability test (KS F 2456) was executed with the proposed measurement protocol for evaluation.
RESULTS : A measurement protocol was proposed to determine the transverse resonance frequency of concrete beam specimens.
CONCLUSIONS : It was concluded that the proposed measurement protocol may be used for the concrete durability test; where the resonance frequency could be stably collected.
This paper aims to experimentally and numerically explore fracture mechanism characteristics of ultra-thin chopped carbon fiber tape-reinforced thermoplastics (UT-CTT) hat-shaped hollow beam under transverse static and impact loadings. Three distinct failure modes were observed in the impact bending tests, whereas only one similar progressive collapse mode was observed in the transverse bending tests. The numerical model was to incorporate some hypothetical inter-layers in UT-CTT and assign them with the failure model as cohesive zone model, which can perform non-linear characteristics with failure criterion for representing delamination failure. The dynamic material parameters for the impact model were theoretically predicted with consideration of strain-rate dependency. It shows that the proposed modeling approach for interacting damage modes can serve as a benchmark for modeling damage coupling in composite materials.
This paper discusses the influence of transverse reinforcement spacing and support width of concrete wide beam on shear performance. In order to evaluate the shear performance, a total of thirteen specimens were constructed and tested. The transverse reinforcement spacing, the number of legs and support width were considered as variables. From the test results, the shear strength equation of concrete wide beam is proposed for prediction of shear strength of concrete wide beam to consider the transverse reinforcement spacing and support width. It is shown that the proposed equation is able to predict shear strength reasonably well for concrete wide beam.
To study the seismic resistance of the shear capacity of the RC beam-column joints of two-story and four-story RC buildings, sample buildings are designed with ordinary moment resisting frame. For the shear capacity of joints, the equations of FEMA 356 and NZ seismic assessment are selected and compared. For comparison, one group of buildings is designed only for gravity loads and the other group is designed for seismic and gravity loads. For 16 cases of the designed buildings, seismic performance point is evaluated through push-over analysis and the capacity of joint shear strength is checked. Not only for the gravity designed buildings but also for seismic designed buildings, the demand of joint shear is exceeding the capacity at exterior joints. However, for interior joint, the demand of joint shear exceeds the capacity only for one case. At exterior joints, the axial load stress ratio is lower than 0.21 for gravity designed buildings and 0.13 for seismic designed buildings.
최근 시공의 합리화와 경제성의 목적으로 한 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 철근 콘크리트 기둥과 철골 보로 이루어진 RCS 구조의 개발에 대한 연구 역시 활발해지고 있다. RCS 구조 보-기둥 접합부 패널존의 저항기구는 내부패널에서 외부패널로 응력이 전달될 때 직교보의 영향을 받지만, 기존연구에는 직교보의 영향을 고려하지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 웨브, 플랜지, 직교보의 두께, FBP의 유뮤등 다양한 변수들을 가지는 5개의 철근콘크리트 기둥과 철골보로 이루어진 보-기둥 내부접합부 실험체의 실험을 통해 직교보들의 영향과 구조적 성능을 조사하고자 한다. 이러한 실험결과들로부터, 보-기둥 접합부의 직교보가 전단내력과 구조성능을 향상시키는데 효과적이라는 것을 알 수 있다.
