Heunginjimun as treasure No.1 is wooden structure of 2 story. This stucly presents an investigation on vibration characteristics of Heunginjimun in Seoul through ambient vibration test. The research team studied structural characteristics unlike general building and performed the test. Natural or environmental excitation as ambient vibration source is always present and hence the test implies a minimum interference with normal use of the structure. Natural frequencies, damping ratio and modes are identified and compared using two strategies, Frequency Domain Decomposition, Stochastic Subspace Identification techniques. The result shows that behavior and dynamic property of Heuninjimun.

High speed railway bridges should be strictly maintained due to its social importance. However, There are many problems to execute loading test for precision safety diagnosis. A numerical experiment with a numerical model which is updated for reflecting characteristics of an existing bridge can be useful for high speed railway bridge maintenance. Moreover, more efficient maintenance can be possible if only ambient vibration is needed for numerical model updating process. In this study, a numerical model updating process is introduced in which only ambient vibration is enough to execute the process. Also, the usability of updated numerical model is verified by comparing measured and analyzed acceleration.
