The developed 2-dimensional sample example of mathematical model demonstrates the model behaviour and its suitability in many aspects of engineering practise.
The proposed numerical model confirms the expected response in accordance with the applied theory and enables it to be applied in engineering practice.

Calculation of Flexural Capacity of Steel Reinforced Concrete Beams Strengthened with Near-Surface Mounted CFRP Rods Wei Hua Chen 1，a , Mei Qin Wu 2，b 1 Jiangxi science and technology University civil engineering,Jiangxi Nanchang 30013 , china 2 Vocation and Technical College , East China Jiaotong University, Nanchang 330013, china achenweihua197331@163.com, bwmqjxnc @163.com Keywords:Near-surface mounted CFRP rods, steel reinforced concrete beams, flexural capacity, strengthening Abstract.
Introduction Steel reinforced concrete structure is a new structure,which is better than steel structure and reinforced concrete structure .Due to the large stiffness, high carrying capacity, good seismic performance, etc. it is widely used in engineering [1]~[3] .And CFRP with a corrosion-resistant, high strength, light weight, good durability are being increasingly applied to civil engineering structures.Steel reinforced concrete structure strengthened with NSM CFRP rods can further make full use of the material properties, reduce the section size, increase the usable floor area of the structure , are able to meet the needs of modern structure which is large-span, heavy-duty and high-rise.At present, the application and research about FRP focused on reinforced concrete structure strengthened with NSM CFRP rods in civil engineering, to be less for steel reinforced steel concrete structure strengthened with NSM CFRP rods.Therefore, according to several kind of destruction forms of

Probabilistic Approach forCost Optimization of Structural Materials using Plastic Hinge Mechanism KwangIk Son1,a, ByungSeung Kong2,b, Won-Suk Jang1,c, Hee-Joong Kim3,d, Hack Soo Lee4,e 1Department of Civil Engineering, Yeungnam University, Gyeongsan, Korea 2(Corresponding Author) Department of Civil Engineering, Dongseo University, Pusan, Korea 3Department of Civil Engineering, Keimyung University, Daegu, Korea 4Department of Civil Engineering, Hannam University, Daejon, Korea akison@ynu.ac.kr, bkongbs@dongseo.ac.kr, cwsjang@ynu.ac.kr, dhjkim@kmu.ac.kr, eleehs@hnu.kr Keywords: Cost Optimization, Structural Materials, Plastic Hinge, Monte Carlo Simulation Abstract.
In consequence, earthquake engineers often consider the plastic hinge mechanism to introduce the intentional failure mode in structural design.In the frame structure, the cost of the column is more expensive than that of beam or other parts of the structure in terms of reconstruction and rehabilitation unless the whole structure has been totally collapsed.
