A corrugated steel plate wall (CSPW) system is advantageous to secure the strength and stiffness required for lateral force resistance because of its high out-of-plane stability. It can also stably dissipate large amounts of energy even after peak strength. In this paper, a preliminary study has been carried out to use the CSPW system in the seismic retrofit of existing reinforced concrete (RC) moment frame buildings. The seismic performance for an example building was evaluated, and then a step-by-step retrofit design procedure for the CSPW was proposed. An equivalent analytical model of the CSPW was also introduced for a practical analysis of the retrofitted building, and the strengthening effect was finally evaluated based on the results of nonlinear analysis.

본 논문에서는 리브로 보강된 철골 모멘트 접합부의 내진설계법 정립을 위한 등가 스트럿 모델을 제시하였다. 리브 보강 접합부의 응력전달 메커니즘은 고전 휨이론에 의한 예측과는 전혀 다르며, 리브는 리브의 기울기 방향으로 스트럿 거동을 보임을 유한요소해석에 의해 밝혔다. 리브를 스트럿 요소로 파악하여 리브 접합부의 실용설계에 활용될 수 있는 등가 스트럿 모델링 방안을 제시하였다.
