Seismic performance of ordinary reinforced concrete shear wall systems commonly used in high-rise residential buildings is evaluated. Three types of shear walls exceeding 60m in height are designed by performance-based seismic design. Then, incremental dynamic analysis is performed collapse probability is assessed in accordance with the procedure of FEMA P695. As a result, story drift, plastic rotation, and compressive strain are observed to be major failure modes, but shear failure occur little. Collapse probability and collapse margin ratio of performance groups do not meet requirement of FEMA P695. It is observed that critical wall elements fail due to excessive compressive strain. Therefore, the compressive strain of concrete at the boundary area of the shear wall needs to be evaluated with more conservative acceptance criteria.

Reinforced earth retaining walls are easier to construct and more economical than concrete retaining walls, and the applicability to the parts where the retaining wall structures are needed is gradually increasing. Since 1980, reinforced earth retaining walls have been used in various ground and environmental conditions, and various types of damage have been found in the maintenance stage due to various conditions of the applied site. Especially, when the ground is sloped, the damage is more serious than the case where it is not. Therefore, in this study, the long-term behavior of reinforced earth retaining wall constructed on the expressway according to the slope of the ground is analyzed.

Reinforced earth retaining walls are applied to various fields such as clay part, cut part, adjacent part of structure (alternation, culvert) and reinforcement soil alternation in Korea. Therefore, they are applied more favorably than concrete retaining wall because of its excellent economy and construction. Analysis of reinforced earth retaining wall construction shows that the height is more than 10m higher than that of foreign countries, and when it is applied in multi - stage, it is more than 20m. The reinforced earth retaining wall was introduced in Korea in the 1980s, and the number of years of damage has been increasing due to the fact that the number of public years has been increased to 30 years since it was first applied to the present. Especially, in the case of multi-stage reinforced earth retaining walls having a height of 10 m or more, And the risk of the risk to reach the situation is found. Therefore, in this study, damage characteristics occurred in reinforced earth retaining wall constructed in multi - stage in expressway were analyzed.

Recent decades, maintenance and reconstruction have been paid attention to old buildings. Especially, it has been recognized that seismic retrofit measures are necessary for non-reinforced masonry buildings which are used for prevailing building constructions. However, such applications can be limited due to its excessive costs, long-period, and inherent difficulty in securing construction spaces. For this reason, different reinforcement methods have been proposed by previous researchers in the economic manner. This study carried out an adhesive retrofit material upgrading low workability and excessive costs of existing reinforcement methods and, in turn, verified the level of seismic reinforcement throughout experimental studies. In order for the objectives, masonry walls with an aspect ratio of 1.0 were designed and manufactured. Also, effective parameters which are affected by openings, adhesive material types, the number of reinforcement layers, and lateral load levels were established. Experimental results showed that MW specimens without openings were collapsed for low-seismic resistances resulting from rocking failure modes, while strength and displacement capacities were improved for reinforced openings. Also, R-MWO-3F specimens with opening which was enhanced for three layers of stiffener showed displacement, ductility capacities, and energy dissipating capacities in the stable manner, even satisfying the collapse prevention level proposed in the current seismic codes.

Reinforced concrete shear walls with deficient reinforcement details are tested under cyclic loading. The deficiency of reinforcement details includes insufficient splice length in U-stirrups at the ends of horizontal reinforcement and boundary column dowel bars found in existing low- to mid-rise Korean buildings designed non-seismically. Three test specimens have rectangular, babel and flanged sections, respectively. Flexure- and shear-controlled models for reinforced concrete shear walls specified in ASCE/SEI 41-13 are compared with the flexural and shear components of force-displacement relation extracted separately from the top displacement of the specimen based on the displacement data measured at diverse locations. Modification of the shear wall models in ASCE/SEI 41-13 is proposed in order to account for the effect of bar slip, cracking loads in flexure and shear. The proposed modification shows better approximation of the test results compared to the original models.

This study classified the study subjects as apartment residents and managers, and conducted the descriptive statistics of research questions related to the effectiveness of the lightweight partition walls and the evacuation space. This study also conducted T-test and Anova to find the different perceptions of the lightweight partition walls and the evacuation space, and the different perceptions of related laws according to the characteristics of the residents and managers. The findings and suggestions were as follows. Firstly, strengthening of the Senior Fire Safety Manager system to prevent the insolvency of fire safety management due to the affiliate. Secondly, implementing enhanced penalties in accordance with not implementing residents education, in order to prevent not smoothly delivering manager trained education to residents. Thirdly, adjusting hands-on training time according to the gender of the managers to supplement women’s relatively low perceptions of lightweight partition. Fourthly, mandating evacuation guidance stickers on the evacuation space for residents to remove obstacles in the evacuation space. Finally, establishing regular residents education system in order to improve the awareness of the related laws for residents residing over 16th floors.

In this paper, a finite element dynamic simulation study was performed to gain an insight about the blast wall test details for the offshore structures. The simulation was verified using qualitative and quantitative comparisons for different materials. Based on in-depth examination of blast simulation recordings, dynamic behaviors occurred in the blast wall against the explosion are determined. Subsequent simulation results present that the blast wall made of high energy absorbing high manganese steel performs much better in the shock absorption. In this paper, the existing finite element shock analysis using the LS-DYNA program is further extended to study the blast wave response of the corrugated blast wall made of the high manganese steel considering strain rate effects. The numerical results for various parameters are verified by comparing different material models with dynamic effects occurred in the blast wall from the explosive simulation.

This study aims to investigate the physical characteristics and architectural ornaments of the walls (DamJang) and their bordering area that defines the Rear Garden of Changdeok-gung, one of the Royal Palaces in Seoul.

The findings are summarized as follows: First, DamJang, as a basic architectural element for the space organization, takes a set of various forms featuring different construction materials while responding positively to the physiographic nature of the surroundings; Second, DamJang along with their gates, also features different types of ornamental expressions which also suggest the hierarchy of its building and space; Third, typical of the traditional garden design in Korea are a group of DamJang standing as independent structures mostly around Buyong-ji and Aeryeon-ji whose finishing conditions also differ based on the nature of the space; Fourth, among commonly observed examples of DamJang in the Rear Garden and Changdeok-gung palace-wide, is a ‘T’ shaped wall whose heights and materials function as a design element for the garden.

본 연구는 초고층 건축물의 기본계획을 바탕으로 철근콘크리트 코어 벽체의 두께를 최적화하여 실시설계에 적용하는 과정에서, StrAuto를 통한 수많은 케이스의 반복해석을 통하여 최적 케이스를 찾아내어, 설계 방향과 한계에 대한 가이드라인을 설정하기 위한 프로세스를 구축하기 위한 실용화 연구이다. 코어 벽체의 두께와 강도를 변경하면서 StrAuto를 통해 반복해석을 수행하고 해석결과를 시각적으로 표현하여 설계자가 어떤 방향으로 설계를 진행할지를 결정하는데 중요한 참고자료로 활용하도록 프로세스를 정립하였다. 본 논문은 기본적인 구조설계가 완료된 상태에서 설계자가 원하는 방향에 대한 수많은 케이스를 빠르게 검토하여 올바른 실시 설계 방향을 설정하는 프로세스를 구축했다는 점에서 큰 의의를 찾을 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 주기하중에 대하여 거시적 모델링 방법을 다르게 적용하여 철근콘크리트 벽체의 비선형 해석을 수행하고 기존에 나타난 실험 연구와 비교/분석하였다. ASCE41-06에서 제시하는 높이-길이 비에 따른 벽체의 파괴유형을 참고하여 기존에 수행된실험연구 중에서 높이-길이비가 3.0을 초과하는 세장한 벽체와 높이-길이비가 1.5인 낮은 벽체를 선택하였다. 각 실험체에 대하여 거시적모델을 다르게 고려하여 비선형 해석을 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 적용한 거시적 모델은 휨에 대한 거동을 정확히 묘사할 수 있는 방법과벽체의 복부에서 발생되는 대각 전단을 고려할 수 있는 방법이다. 세장한 벽체는 거시적 모델에 따른 실험과 해석의 결과 차이가 거의없는 것으로 나타났지만 낮은 벽체는 모델링 방법에서 고려할 수 있는 요소에 의해 이력 거동이 크게 달라지는 것으로 조사되었다. 또한,높이-길이 비가 1.5인 철근콘크리트 벽체가 건축물에 적용된 경우 정확한 횡 저항능력을 평가하기 위해서 복부의 대각 압축 전단을 고려할 수 있는 모델을 사용하는 것이 타당하다.

본 논문에서는 지진시 역 T형 옹벽에 작용하는 기초 접지압의 변화를 Mononobe-Okabe공식을 이용하는 기존의 유사정적 설계기법과, 지반의 비선형 부지증폭현상 고려한 유한차분해석을 이용하여 살펴 보았다. 옹벽 설계에 있어서 높이 10m를 초과하는역 T형 옹벽의 경우 상시 안정조건을 만족함에도 불구하고 지진시 지지력 안정조건을 만족하지 못하는 경우가 발생한다. 안정조건을 만족시키지 못하는 주요 원인은 동토압으로 야기되는 편심하중 증가로 인한 기초 유효저면적의 감소이다. 본 논문에서는 역 T형 옹벽의 지진시 유효저면적의 변화를 유한차분해석프로그램(FLAC)을 이용하여 살펴보았으며, 그 결과로부터 동적지지력 계수의 설계 적용성을 검토하였다.

언양읍성 북문주변 성곽정비사업 일환으로 발굴조사한 지역에서 체성, 북문지와 옹성 1개소, 치성 2개소, 성 외측에 전체적으로 조성된 해자, 수혈유구 등 다양한 유구가 조사되었다. 이번 발굴조사에서 북문지와 옹성의 구조, 체성부와 치성의 축조방법, 규모 등이 명확하게 확인되었다. 특히 체성의 축조방법에 있어서 내벽의 경우 계단식 축조수법이 아닌 내탁부와 성 안쪽과 내벽 내탁부를 구분하는 경계석열이 확인된 것이 가장 큰 성과이다. 해자의 평면형태, 규모, 내부시설을 정확하게 확인할 수 있었으며, 또한 체성, 치성, 옹성과의 축조에 있어서 선후관계를 파악할 수 있었다. 즉 체성과 치성은 동시기에 축조되었으며, 북문지의 옹성은 체성보다 늦은 시기에 축조된 것으로 확인되었다. 조사지역에서 해발고도가 가장 높은 북서쪽 모서리에서 암거시설 형태의 입수구가 확인되었다. 그리고 해자와 만나는 구상유구가 확인되었는데, 입지조건, 내부시설 등으로 볼 때 해자쪽으로 물을 공급하는 용도의 구로 생각된다. 언양읍성은 문헌에서 확인된 읍성(석성)의 축조시기(1500년)와 이번 발굴조사에서 출토된 유물(자기류, 기와류)의 편년을 비교해 볼 때 연대가 비교적 일치하는 것으로 생각되며, 이번 발굴조사 성과를 바탕으로 북문주변 성곽 정비복원 시에 문헌자료와 함께 고고학 자료를 검토, 보완하여 정확한 정비복원이 이루어지길 바란다.

축사는 비닐하우스 다음으로 자연재해에 취약한 농촌시설물이다. 축사의 경우 측벽 없이 지붕만 있는 형태가 가장 많이 사용되고 있는데, 태풍이 불면 지붕 전제가 날아가 많은 피해가 발생하는 실정이다. 그래서 농가에서는 태풍피해예방을 위한 측벽에 윈치 커튼설치하여 피해를 예방하고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 측벽 개방에 따른 축사지붕에 위치별 풍압 계수 분포특성에 대해서 알아보고자 한다. 측벽유무에 관계없이 축사지붕면의 피크외압계수분포에서 풍향각 0˚로 불어오는 방향에 대해서 불리하게 작용하고 있는 것을 알 수 있다. 그러나 측벽의 유무에 따라 피크외압계수가 풍향각과 처마의 길이에 영향을 받는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

This study investigates impact damage behavior of a reinforced concrete structure that undergoes both a shock impulsive loading and an impact loading due to the air blast induced from an explosion is performed. Firstly, a pair of multiple loadings are selected from the scenario that an imaginary explosion accident is assumed. The rectangular RC walls strengthened with Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) are considered as a scheme for retrofitting rectangular RC wall structures subjected to multiple explosive loadings and then the evaluation of the resistant performance against them is presented in comparison with the result of the evaluation of a rectangular RC wall without retrofit. Also, in order to derive the result of the analysis similar to that of real explosion experiments, which require the vast investment and expense for facilities, the constitutive equation and the equation of state (EOS) which can describe the real impact and shock phenomena accurately are included with them. In addition, the numerical simulations of two rectangular RC walls are achieved using AUTODYN-3D, an explicit analysis program, in order to prove the retrofit performance of a GFRP-strengthened rectangular RC wall.
