报告内容简介： An unbonded post-tensioned (PT) anchor for a 15.2 mm diameter 7-wire strand was developed by Prof. Kang’s research team at Seoul National University based on finite element analysis and experimental verification. As part of the experimental verification of structural performance, static load tests and load transfer tests were conducted following the Korean Specifications, KCI-PS101. The static load tests and additional strand tensile tests confirmed that the developed anchor had a capacity more than nominal tensile strength of a 7-wire strand without any damage or deterioration. According to the result of load transfer tests, specimens with no additional reinforcing bars sustained at least 1.6 times the nominal tensile strength of the strand. This seminar will present such a performance verification process conducted through static load and load transfers tests, as well as the development process. The developed anchors were then used as fixed end anchorage in monolithically cast beam-column joints of special moment frames. Both roof level and inter-story level PT connection subassemblies were tested under reversed cyclic deformations. The test results showed that seismic performance of the connections with developed anchors was excellent in terms of every measurable seismic indicators.
