이 연구는 탄소섬유시트의 보강겹수와 보강위치에 따른 I형 PFRP 휨부재의 휨보강 효과에 대해 조사하였다. 또한, 탄소섬유시트로 보강한 PFRP 휨부재의 실험적, 이론적으로 확인하기 위해 유한요소해석을 실시하였으며, 휨실험 결과와 이론적 해석결과를 비교분석하였다. 휨실험 결과와 유한요소해석 결과는 이론적인 결과와 비교한 결과 일치하는 경향을 보였고, 휨보강 효과가 큰 탄소섬유시트 2겹을 보강한 시편에서 결과에서 오차가 가장 크게 발생하였다.

A pultruded fiber reinforced polymer plastic (PFRP) structural is one of the most widely used composite member in construction. In generally, PFRP members is composed of plate elements so that it needs to evaluate stability problems when they are used by construction members. On the other hand, creep effect may be occurred in PFRP members under sustained load. Primary to experiment for PFRP creep, previous works are studied. In the previous work related to buckling of PFRP member, it can be calculated buckling strength of PFRP members when it is known that material property of longitudinal and transverse direction of PFRP members. The researches for creep behavior of PFRP has been conducted and time-dependent degradation elastic moduls can be predicted by the empirical equation. In this study, it will be conducted creep test for PFRP and time-dependent stress-strain relationship will be plotted. It is expected that long-term buckling behavior of PFRP is evaluated by theoretical and numerical method such as finite element method.

A pultruded fiber reinforced polymer plastic (PFRP) structural member consisted of plate elements, which is commonly used as construction member, may be considered as an orthotropic material due to its unique manufacturing process. It has different mechanical properties with respect to the longitudinal and transverse directions. This orthotropic nature of PFRP material needs to be considered in the analysis of buckling behavior. In this paper, a simplified buckling analysis for PFRP plate using geometric mean of the longitudinal and transverse mechanical properties is performed. The comparison between exact buckling analysis and simplified buckling analysis is conducted. Each analysis is performed by the Levy method and the finite element method (FEM), respectively.
