In this paper, Nonlinear Static Pushover analysis method(NSP) is proposed which apply to RC buildings reinforced by external retrofit fornseismic performance. Based on previous analysis and research, NSP is more developed by connection nonlinearity according to shearnresistance mechanism such as dowel and adhesive resistance as major shear resistance elements. According to the proposed method,nstructural analysis for example buildings was carried out to evaluate seismic performance of buildings. And, it was confirmed thatndepending on shear strain and characteristics of joint resistant of external retrofitting are different from internal retrofitting. Furthermore,nthe strength reduction coefficient of the anchor needs to be considered at the joint design.

This paper deals with steel braced frame as increasing the lateral strength and ductility in order to seismic retrofit of existing buildings and discusses the designing criteria and calculation method of retrofitted buildings. The addition of steel braced frame can be effective for increasing the lateral strength and ductility of existing buildings. However, There is a problem in utilizing this method. It is the approach to provide an adequate connection between the existing RC frame and the installed steel braced frame, because global strength by failure mode(three type) depends on detail of connection and strength of existing RC frame. So, the designer must be confirmed if it satisfies the required performance or not. Failure mode of type I is the most appropriate for increasing the lateral strength and ductility. Seismic performance evaluation and strength calculation of seismic retrofit are performed by guideline by KISTEC(Korea Infrastructure Safety & Technology)’s “seismic performance evaluation and rehabilitation of existing buildings” and Japan Building Disaster Prevention Association. Buildings are modeled and non-linear pushover analysis are performed using MIDAS program.

The seismic performance of school buildings has been a matter of common interest socially and academically. The structural system of the school buildings is representative of the domestic low-rise reinforced concrete moment resisting frames, which apply extensively infills in their masonry walls. The masonry infilled walls are divided into full masonry infill in the transverse direction and partial masonry infill in the longitudinal direction. The masonry infilled walls are usually not included in structural analysis during the design process, but affect significantly the seismic performance because they behave with surrounding frames simultaneously during earthquakes. Many researchers have studied the effect of the masonry infilled walls, but several issues have been missed such as the increase of asymmetry by adding the full masonry infill, the size of the mean strength of the full masonry infill, and short column effect by the partial masonry infill. The issues were analytically investigated and the results showed that they should be checked at least by nonlinear pushover analysis in the seismic performance evaluation process. The results also confirm the weakness of the guideline of Korean Educational Development Institute where the seismic performance is basically assessed without structural analysis.

본 연구에서는 기존 건물의 내진성능평가 요령의 개선안을 바탕으로 비보강 조적조 건물의 내진성능을 평가하였다. 평가 절차는 예비평가, 1차상세평가, 2차상세평가의 3단계로 구성되어 있으며, 보수적인 평가로 시작하여 점차 상세한 평가를 실시한다. 본 연구의 목적은 이와 같은 단계적 평가의 실효성을 검증하고 평가결과와 조적조 벽량과의 상관관계를 분석하는 것이다. 연구를 위해 10개의 2층 비보강 조적조 건물을 선택한 후 3단계 절차를 이용하여 단계별로 성능평가를 수행하였다. 연구 결과, 예비평가와 1차상세평가간에 성능수준이 절차의 의도와 역행해서 나타났다. 따라서 앞으로 본 연구 결과에서 나타난 각 평가 단계별 문제점을 보완할 필요가 있다.
