In this study, a non-welded beam-to-column connection applicable to the extension and renovation of pipe-rack structures was proposed. The structural performance of the proposed connection was verified at the component level through preliminary finite element analyses. In order to verify structural performance of beam-to-column connection implementing panel zone reinforcing elements, full-scale quasi static test was conducted. As a result, the specimen incorporating box-type panel zone reinfocing element exhivited maximum strength approaximatly 1.3 times higher than that of the specimen with existing connection detail of which structural behavior was governed by weak panel zone deformation. However, the specimen with suggested detail shows stable ductile behavior due to reduction of stress concentrated on the beam-to-column connection since the applied forces were distributed through the yielding of the beam end plate and the reinforcing element inserted into the panel zone.

The Gopura in Preah Pithu T temple, which is partially damaged and collapsed, is densely wooded and has a high percentage of humidity due to moats and ponds, the stone materials are not in good condition and significantly damaged due to intrinsic structural defects and other damage factors. The examination of major endangered and vulnerable parts through status analysis is also necessary in order to restore the Gopura in T temple in a more structurally stable state. This study proposes the effective structural safety inspection measures by applying rational structural modeling and structural analysis method reflecting the damage type by construction type and carrying out structural safety evaluation by damage type and member based on the results of analysis.

AI-driven automation for structural design has been actively studied in structural engineering. In particular, reinforcement learning (RL) has attracted attention as a framework in which an agent interacts with an environment to autonomously search for optimal design solutions in complex design spaces. This study proposes an automated design model for rectangular reinforced-concrete (RC) columns based on a multi-agent Double Deep Q-Network (Double DQN). Extending prior RL-based automation developed for RC beam design to column members, the proposed environment explicitly incorporates key column-specific behaviors, including axial force–bending moment (P–M) interaction and moment magnification due to column buckling. Four agents independently determine the section width (b), section depth (h), number of longitudinal bars (n), and bar size. The reward function combines (i) penalty terms for violations of ACI 318-19 design constraints and (ii) an economic reward defined relative to an approximate optimal cost predicted by a quadratic regression model. After training for approximately 10,000 episodes, the proposed multi-agent Double DQN consistently generated ACI-compliant column designs across all test load cases and produced solutions with improved cost efficiency compared with the approximate optimal baseline. These results demonstrate the feasibility and practical potential of multi-agent RL for automated RC column section design.

External steel frame retrofitting effectively enhances the lateral resistance performance of existing reinforced concrete school buildings. However, when column shear failure occurs, ductility capacity is reduced, posing a risk of sudden collapse in high-seismic hazard areas. The purpose of this study is to propose a linear-elastic analysis-based retrofit process to reduce the likelihood of column shear failure and maximize retrofit effectiveness when applying external steel frame retrofitting. To achieve these objectives, a multiple-step process was presented and a case application was performed using quasi-static cyclic loading test results of a school building specimen retrofitted with an external steel frame system. Experimental results showed that strength, stiffness, and energy dissipation were improved by the retrofit system. However, the damage mechanism shifted from beam-column joints to column bases, resulting in reduced ductility capacity due to column shear failure. By applying the proposed process, the lateral stiffness ratio of the external steel frame columns was increased from 0.23 to 0.74, eliminating shear failure in existing reinforced concrete columns and confirming that it can contribute to improving ductility capacity.

This study aims to refine the existing shear strength model for reinforced concrete(RC) beam–column connections by explicitly incorporating the bi-directional loading effect, which more accurately reflects the actual loading conditions of RC structures during earthquakes. A new database consisting of 21 RC beam–column connection specimens tested under simultaneous bi-directional loading was collected and analyzed to investigate the influence of key parameters on joint shear strength. The results revealed that the joint configuration and the presence of a slab are the primary factors governing the extent of bi-directional loading effect on joint shear strength. Based on these findings, a set of simple and practical modification factors was proposed to refine the existing joint shear strength model to account for bi-directional loading effect. The outcomes of this study provide a rational basis for incorporating bi-directional loading effect into the shear strength evaluation of RC beam–column connections

This study investigated the structural performance of Cast-in-Place (CIP) pile-integrated composite basement walls (CIP-CBW) featuring socket-type shear connectors (SSCs) in both steel and RC applications through finite element analysis. The results demonstrated that while the height and spacing of SSCs significantly influenced the ultimate load and corresponding displacement of the CIP-CBW, their impact on initial stiffness was negligible. Due to the leverage effect, shear forces along the interface between the CIP pile and the basement wall were resisted by both the front and rear bolts of the SSC. The failure mechanism of the SSC joint was characterized by concrete crushing and cracking around the connector, followed by the formation of plastic hinges in both bolts. Bending moment analysis revealed that the rear bolt is particularly susceptible to flexural yielding. Furthermore, the slip tendency at the interface was more pronounced in the steel scheme than in the RC scheme. Notably, the effect of SSC spacing on slip was significant, whereas SSC height exhibited minimal influence.

This study conducted nonlinear static analyses to evaluate the effect of structural eccentricity on the seismic performance of piloti-type buildings. Analytical models reflecting the actual structural details of buildings acquired and operated by the Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) and the Seoul Housing and Communities Corporation (SH) were developed, and eccentricity ratios were considered as key analytical parameters. The effects of eccentricity on structural response were quantitatively assessed through the evaluation of performance points, plastic hinge distribution, axial load sharing ratio, and interstory drift ratio. The analytical results demonstrated that increasing eccentricity caused the performance point to approach the maximum load and concentrated plastic hinges at the ground story, leading to a noticeable degradation in overall seismic performance. Furthermore, when the eccentricity exceeded approximately 8%, the interstory drift ratio at the ground story tended to surpass the allowable limit specified in the national seismic performance evaluation guidelines. Accordingly, maintaining the eccentricity ratio below approximately 5% is suggested as a rational design strategy to ensure stable seismic performance. The findings provide valuable insights for improving seismic performance evaluation methods and design criteria for piloti-type structures.
