This study is to investigate the effect of a retrofitted reinforced concrete frame with non-seismic details strengthened by embedded steel moment frames with an indirect joint, which mitigates the problems of the direct joint method. First, full-scale experiments were conducted to confirm the structural behavior of a 2-story reinforced concrete frame with non-seismic details and strengthened by a steel moment frame with an indirect joint. The reinforced concrete frame with non-seismic details showed a maximum strength of 185 kN at an overall drift ratio of 1.75%. The flexural-shear failure of columns was governed, and shear cracks were concentrated at the beam-column joints. The reinforced concrete frame strengthened by the embedded steel moment frames achieved a maximum strength of 701 kN at an overall drift ratio of 1.5% so that the maximum strength was about 3.8 times that of the specimen with non-seismic details. The failure pattern of the retrofitted specimen was the loss of bond strength between the concrete and the rebars of the columns caused by a prying action of the bottom indirect joint because of lateral force. Furthermore, methods are proposed for calculation of the specified strength of the reinforced concrete frame with non-seismic details and strengthened by the steel moment frame with the indirect joint.

내진설계기준이 개정됨에 따라 기 시공된 철근콘크리트 건축구조물의 내진보강에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 특히 내진철근상세가 적용되지 않은 철근콘크리트 기둥의 경우 지진이 발생할 경우 취성적인 전단파괴가 발생할 가능성이 크다. 본 연구에서는 아라미드 FRP를 이용하여 비내진상세 철근콘크리트 기둥의 휨 및 전단내력 보강 후, 실험체를 반복횡하중 가력하여 아라미드 FRP의 내력 상승효과 및 연성능력의 증가를 확인하였다. 무보강 및 아라미드 FRP 보강 실험체를 비교 한 결과 아라 미드 FRP 보강이 비내진상세 철근콘크리트 기둥의 내력을 증가시키고 연성능력 또한 증가시킴을 확인하였다. 또한 비내진상세 철근콘크리트 기둥의 아라미드 FRP 보강 시 기둥 뿐만 아니라 접합부의 보강 또한 필요함을 확인하였다.

Diagonally reinforced concrete coupling beams (DRCBs) have been widely adopted in reinforced concrete (RC) bearing wall systems. DRCBs are known to act as a fuse element dissipating most of seismic energies imparted to the bearing wall systems during earthquakes. Despite such importance of DRCBs, the damage estimation of such components and the corresponding consequences within the knowledge of performance based seismic design framework is not well understood. In this paper, drift-based fragility functions are developed for in-plane loaded DRCBs. Fragility functions are developed to predict the damage and to decide the repair method required for DRCBs subjected to earthquake loading. Thirty-seven experimental results are collected from seventeen published literatures for this effort. Drift-based fragility functions are developed for four damage states of DRCBs subjected to cyclic and monotonic loading associated with minor cracking, severe cracking, onset of strength loss, and significant strength loss. Damage states are defined in a consistent manner. Cumulative distribution functions are fit to the empirical data and evaluated using standard statistical methods.

The BX composite beam is designed to have the same cross-section regardless of the size of the momentum, which is a disadvantage of the existing steel structure. Combination of the H-beam end compressive material and the H-section steel tensile reinforcement according to the moment size in a single span, It is possible to say that it is an excellent synthesis which increases the performance. When underground and overhead structures are constructed, it is possible to reduce the bending, increase lateral stiffness, reduce construction cost, and simplify joints. The seamability of the joining part is a simple steel composite beam because of the decrease of the beam damping at the center of the beam and the use of the end plate of the new end compressing material. In the case of structures with long span structure and high load, it is advantageous to reduce the material cost by designing large steel which is high in price at less than medium steel.

Existing reinforced concrete frame buildings designed for only gravity loads have been seismically vulnerable due to their inadequate column detailing. The seismic vulnerabilities can be mitigated by the application of a column retrofit technique, which combines high-strength near surface mounted bars with a fiber reinforced polymer wrapping system. This study presents the full-scale shaker testing of a non-ductile frame structure retrofitted using the combined retrofit system. The full-scale dynamic testing was performed to measure realistic dynamic responses and to investigate the effectiveness of the retrofit system through the comparison of the measured responses between as-built and retrofitted test frames. Experimental results demonstrated that the retrofit system reduced the dynamic responses without any significant damage on the columns because it improved flexural, shear and lap-splice resisting capacities. In addition, the retrofit system contributed to changing a damage mechanism from a soft-story mechanism (column-sidesway mechanism) to a mixed-damage mechanism, which was commonly found in reinforced concrete buildings with strong-column weak-beam system.

Existing reinforced concrete building structures have seismic vulnerabilities due to their seismically-deficient details resulting in non-ductile behavior. The seismic vulnerabilities can be mitigated by retrofitting the buildings using a fiber-reinforced polymer column jacketing system, which can provide additional confining pressures to existing columns to improve their lateral resisting capacities. This study presents dynamic responses of a full-scale non-ductile reinforced concrete frame retrofitted using a fiber-reinforced polymer column jacketing system. A series of forced-vibration testing was performed to measure the dynamic responses (e.g. natural frequencies, story drifts and column/beam rotations). Additionally, the dynamic responses of the retrofitted frame were compared to those of the non-retrofitted frame to investigate effectiveness of the retrofit system. The experimental results demonstrate that the retrofit system installed on the first story columns contributed to reducing story drifts and column rotations. Additionally, the retrofit scheme helped mitigate damage concentration on the first story columns as compared to the non-retrofitted frame.

The purpose of this study is to pushover analyze existing reinforced concrete(RC) frames strengthened by L-type precast concrete(PC) wall panels. Cyclic loading tests were performed on the partially infilled reinforced concrete(RC) frames by L-type PC wall panels. Based on the results of experimental test, the nonlinear pushover analysis was practiced by using a computer program. The analysis models were designed with two ways according to the test result. The PC wall panel and the RC column exhibited almost composite behavior by using brace when push loading applied. The two structures also exhibited independent behavior when pull loading applied. The results of pushover analysis models generally conform to the experimental results. The ratios of the maximum lateral load measured in the strengthened specimens from the analysis varied between 0.93 and 1.01 in forward cycles, and between 0.84 and 0.90 in backward cycles. The initial stiffness values of the analysis were less than the test values for all strengthened specimens. The ratio of the initial stiffness obtained through testing compared to the values from the analysis varied between 0.72 and 0.90.

In this study, load transfer tests based on KCI-PS101 were conducted to verify the performance of spiral anchorage zone reinforcement for banded post-tensioning (PT) monostrands. With results, the compressive strength of spiral reinforcement was increased by about 20% than that of specimens with two horizontal steel bars and 8% than that of U-shaped bars. Advanced spiral reinforcement for corner increases compressive strength and can resist the spalling forces or fall-out effect at the corner by shear. The ratio of maximum load to amount of steel of the spiral reinforcement is about twice than that of U-shaped reinforcement. With increase of compressive strength capacity and improvement of constructability, the spiral reinforcement is considered to have advantages of promoting the performance of PT anchorage zone compared to conventional methods.

This paper has proposed a reinforcing method for damaged RC columns with SRF sheets and Aramid rods. In order to verify the effectiveness and performance, two original columns and two reinforced columns with SRF sheets and Aramid rods were developed and tested under lateral cyclic displacement and a constant axial load. The test showed that the improvement of energy dissipation capacity was increased in terms of strength and ductility. In addition, an analytical modeling of the standard specimens was proposed using Response-2000 and ZeusNL program. The results of analytical and experimental studies for two standard columns were compared in terms of loading-displacement curve and energy dissipation capacity based on the nonlinear static analysis.

본 연구에서는 저층 조적채움벽 철근콘크리트 골조 구조물의 내진보강 전과 후에 대하여 강제 진동 실험과 상시 진동 계측을 수행하였으며 시스템 식별과정을 통하여 구조물의 동특성을 구하고 해당 구조물과 유사한 동특성을 보이는 해석 모델을 만들었다. 시스템 식별 결과 댐퍼가 설치된 x방향의 감쇠비가 증가되었으며, 해석 모델과 비교한 결과 추가 설치된 부재들(전단벽과 댐퍼)의 유효 강성은 부재의 총단면 강성의 50%만이 발현되어 해당 부재들이 기존의 구조물이나 부재와 완전히 일체화되지는 않음을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 추가 설치된 기초의 y방향 구속조건을 핀으로 하여야 동특성을 일치시킬 수 있었는데, 이는 새로운 기초가 설치되며 해당 지질의 특성이 변화되었기 때문으로 보인다.

This paper deals with the strengthening effect of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with carbon fiber sheets (CFSs). Fifteen strengthened reinforced concrete (RC) beams were experimentally evaluated to determine improvements in structural performance. Test parameters in this experimental study are strengthening ratios and strengthening methods of CFSs (I-S, I-W, U-S, U-W type). RC beams strengthened with CFSs were tested under sustaining load. Considering strengthening ratios and strengthening methods of carbon fiber sheets, structural performance and failure mode of test specimens were evaluated. The results show that maximum capacity of beams strengthened with CFSs is about 28.8% in I-S type, 20.5% in I-W type, 26.0% in U-S type, 28.7% in U-W type higher than that of control beam.

Shear wall systems behave as individual wall because of openings like window and elevator cage. When coupling beams are installed in shear walls, they will have high strength and stiffness so that be less damaged by lateral loads like earthquake. However, coupling beam is difficult construction method. And arranging reinforcement of slender coupling beams are especially hard. It is because the details of coupling beam provided by ACI 318 are complex. In this paper, experiments were conducted using coupling beams with 3.5 aspect ratio to improve the details of slender coupling beams provided by ACI 318. Two specimens were proposed for this study. One specimen applied with bundled diagonally reinforcement only. Another specimen applied both bundled diagonally reinforcement and High-Performance Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Composite (HPFRCC) so that coupling beams have half of transverse reinforcement. All specimen were compared with a coupling beam designed according to ACI 318 and were evaluated with hysteretic behaviors. Test results showed that the performance of two specimen suggested in this study were similar to that of coupling beam designed according to current criteria. And it was considered that simplification of the details of reinforcement would be available if transverse reinforcement was reduced by using bundled diagonally reinforcement and HPFRCC.
