Recently, the damage caused by typhoons and strong winds are increasing due to the world climate change. Considering the vulnerability of structure to strong wind disaster, in this study, we focused on the soundproof wall among vulnerable wind facilities. GFRP was chose as the reinforcement frame among the components of the soundproof wall. The modeling of the soundproof wall was made using the finite element commercial analysis program ABAQUS and the resistance performance was estimated through the optimal model analysis of the soundproof wall. Wind loads were calculated using Monte Carlo Simulation. Finally, wind fragility evaluation was performed to predict the degree of damage of the GFRP frame soundproof wall. It is necessary to verify the performance of the GFRP frame through comparison with the aluminum frame which is generally used in the construction of the soundproofing wall.

Climate change resulted in the growing occurrence frequency of typhoons, and the damage it caused was also increasing. In this study, the soundproofing and windproof walls installed on the domestic road were modeled by using ABAQUS, a commercial finite element analysis program. Correspondingly, steel column, aluminum frame and transparent acrylic plate were modeled. Based on the result from individual part of soundproof wall model, the number of soundproof wall parts for optimal design was determined to be five parts. The design standard of road construction barrier was applied to this optimum model to perform the safety evaluation for strong wind disaster. In the future, it will be possible to improve the guidelines for design of soundproofing walls in Korea by carrying out further experiment to increase the reliability of safety evaluation of soundproofing walls.
