In this study, the out-of-plane seismic resistance of lightly-reinforced existing walls strengthened with thick RC jacket was investigated. The thick RC jacket with a thickness of 500 mm was placed at one side of the thin existing wall with a thickness of 150 mm. At the interface between the wall and RC jacket, a tee-shaped steel section with a number of anchor bolts and dowel bars was used as the shear connector. To investigate the connection performance and strengthening effects, the cyclic loading tests of four jacketed wall specimens were performed. The tests showed that the flexural strength of the jacketed walls under out-of-plane loading was significantly increased. During the initial behavior, the tee shear connector transferred forces successfully at the interface without slip. However, as the cracking, spalling, and crushing of the concrete increased in the exiting walls, the connection performance at the interface was significantly degraded and, consequently, the strength of the jacketed walls was significantly decreased. The flexural strength of the jacketed walls with tee shear connector was estimated considering the full and partial composite actions of the tee shear connector.

This research presents the nonlinear analysis model for reinforced concrete shear wall systems with special boundary elements as proposed by the Korean Building Code (KBC, 2009). In order to verify the analysis model, analytical results were compared with the experimental results obtained from previous studies. Established analytical model was used to perform nonlinear static and dynamic analyses. Analytical results showed that the semi-special shear wall improved significantly the performance in terms of ductility and energy dissipation as expected based on previous test results. Furthermore, nonlinear incremental dynamic analysis was performed using 20 ground motions. Based on computer analytical results, the ordinary shear wall, special shear wall and newly proposed semi-special shear wall systems were evaluated based on the methods in FEMA P965. The results based on the probabilistic approaches accounting for inherent uncertainties showed that the semi-special shear wall systems provide a high capacity/demand (ACMR) ratio owing to their details, which provide enough capacity to sustain large inelastic deformations.

In this paper, analytical models for reinforced concrete shear wall systems designed based on Korean Building Code (KBC2009) are proposed, which have special and semi-special seismic details and are compared with experimental results for a verification of analytical models. In addition, semi-special seismic details aimed to improve constructability and enhance economic efficiency were proposed and evaluated. The analytical models were performed based on nonlinear static and dynamic analysis. Through the nonlinear analyses, two seismic details showed the similar seismic behavior from the cyclic test and the analytical models for the two different seismic details represented the behavior in terms of the initial stiffness, maximum strength and strength degradation. And newly proposed seismic details(semi-special) provided with similar hysterestic behavior as well as the maximum drift.

Comparison with computed mode shapes and frequencies shows good agreement with the experimental results. It proved that it is important to estimate coupling beam and soil parameters through a comparison of the measured results with calculated results.

대형 건축물의 진동과 같은 초저주파 진동특성의 해석을 수행하기 위해서는 측정대상 및 측정조건, 그리고 목적으로 하는 측정요소에 적합한 측정시스템이 구축되어야 하며, 구축된 측정시스템으로부터 얻어진 극히 제한된 유한량의 데이터로부터 목적하는 특성요소를 추출하기 위한 정밀한 데이터분석기술이 요구된다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 고신뢰성을 저주파진동 특성의 분석을 위한 효과적인 데이터처리기법의 개발을 목표로, 측정조건에 따른 저주파진동 해석의 문제점을 분석하고, FFT법과 MEM법의 저주파응답 특성을 비교하였으며, 비교결과를 토대로 저주파진동 해석에 적합한 알고리즘을 결정하였다. 또한, 결정된 분석 알고리즘의 성능을 명확히 하여 정밀분석을 위한 측정데이터의 최적조건을 제시하였다.

이 논문에서는 최근 사회적인 이슈로 대두된 바닥충격음 중 특히 중량충격음을 저감시키기 위한 방법의 일환으로, 바닥슬래브의 두께를 증가시키는 기존의 방식과는 달리 평판형 슬래브에 장선을 설치하여 바닥슬래브의 강성을 증가시킴으로써 고유진동수의 이동을 통한 중량충격음의 저감 효과를 기대할 수 있는 장선바닥슬래브를 제안하고, 장선의 춤과 간격에 따른 중량충격음 특성을 해석적으로 분석하였다. 해석결과, 장선슬래브의 슬래브 두께가 증가할수록 음압레벨이 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으나 일정 두께 이상에서는 큰 차이를 보이지 않아 바닥두께 증가로 인한 중량충격음 차단 기대효과에는 임계치가 있을 것으로 판단된다. 또한 장선 춤의 증가와 간격 감소에 따른 바닥강성의 증가는 일관된 중량충격음 차단성능의 증가로 이어지지 않아 최적의 중량충격음 차단성능을 기대하기 위해서는 주택의 유형별로 각기 다른 장선 춤과 간격이 적용되어야 할 것으로 판단되며, 100mm 정도 장선 춤의 증가나 간격 감소로 약 1dB~2dB정도의 중량충격음 감소효과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

최근 들어 건물의 내진 및 내풍 성능을 향상시키기 위하여 감쇠구조에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 감쇠장치 중 저렴한 비용과 높은 에너지소산능력을 발휘하며, 설치와 유지관리가 용이하다는 장점이 있어 강재이력형 감쇠장치를 이용한 수동형 감쇠구조시스템이 널리 사용 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 라멘구조 또는 무량판 구조에 적합한 계단 설치형 카고메 감쇠시스템(SKDS)을 제안하고자 하며, 제안된 감쇠시스템의 지진응답 개선효과에 대하여 해석적으로 검토하고자 한다. 비선형 동적해석결과 최대응답변위, 최대응답가속도 및 밑면전단력 감소로 살펴볼 때 내진구조와 비교하여 더 향상된 거동이 기대된다는 점에서 SKDS의 효과를 확인할 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study was to experimentally evaluate seismic performance of connection of modular system.

Thus, requirements for intermediate moment frame(IMF) was satisfied in two specimens.

This paper describes the experimental results for the structural performance of full-scale coupling beams with different reinforcement layout (diagonal and horizontal). For the reinforcements of the coupling beams, high-strength steel bars(SD500 and SD600) were used in order to improve workability and economic feasibility. The rigid steel frames and linked joints were used to maintain the clear span length (distance between both shear walls) of the coupling beam during the cyclic loading. Experimental results indicated that the diagonally reinforced coupling beam specimen could exhibit more ductile behavior compared to horizontally reinforced specimen. ACI318-14 code is applicable to design of coupling beam with diagonally reinforcement, however, that is overestimating the strength of horizontally reinforced coupling beam. It is remarkable that effective elastic stiffness values of both reinforcement details coupling beam significantly lees than ASCE 41-13.

In this paper, the vibration control effect of the exterior-installation Kagome damping syste (EKDS) was investigated by applying the Kagome dampers to a 15-story frame apartment building structure. The numerical analysis results of a structure with exterior-installation Kagome damping system up to the third story showed that the application story should be higher than second story to effectively reduce the base shear and the maximum drift of the uppermost story. When the exterior-installation Kagome damping system was installed up to the fifth story, the application story should be higher than third story and for obtaining the target performance.

This study assesses the adequacy of a critical value of the FEMA 273 for beams utilized in the present performance-based design. From the comparison the critical values of FEMA 273 with those of previous experimental result about beams, it was shown that FEMA 273 underestimated the critical values. Therefore, it is necessary to perform a research to find the hysteresis model for the performance-based design considering the hysteretic behavior of domestic reinforced concrete members.

This paper addresses the seismic performance of reinforced concrete coupling beams with various reinforcing details for a design alternative to simply the reinforcement details of coupling beam. The numerical analysis and test results showed that angle reinforced coupling beam exhibited a better stable behavior in comparison with non-diagonally coupling beams and sustained corresponding drift ratio, peak-to-peak stiffness and cumulative dissipated energy in comparison to diagonPally coupling beam.

In this paper, the vibration control effect of the isotropic damping devices (so-called Kagome dampers) was investigated by applying the Kagome dampers to a 20-story frame structure apartment. A new Kagome Damper System (KGDS) composed of the dampers and supporting column was proposed and numerical analyses were performed to investigate the effects of stiffness ratio between controlled structure and supporting column, the damper size and the number of the dampers. The numerical analysis results of a structure with KGDS up to the third story showed that the stiffness ratio should be higher than 6.4 and the damper size be at least 700×700mm to effectively reduce the base shear and the maximum drift of the uppermost story. When the KGDS was installed up to the fifth story, the stiffness ratio should be higher than 7.0 and damper size needs to be at least 500×500mm for obtaining the target performance
