여러 센서를 이용한 구조물의 구조 응답을 모니터링하는 사례가 증가하고 있다. 그러나 비용과 관리 문제로 인해 제한된 센서만이 구조물에 설치되어 일부의 구조 응답만을 수집하는 경우가 대부분이다. 이는 구조물의 전체 거동을 분석하는데 장애요소로 작용하게 된다. 따라서 제한된 센서를 이용해 센서가 설치되지 않은 위치에서의 응답을 신뢰할 수 있는 수준으로 예측하는 기술이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 제한된 정보를 이용해 저층 건물 구조물의 지진 응답을 예측하는 해석적 연구를 수행한다. 활용 가능한 응답 정보는 1층과 최상층의 가속도 응답만을 사용할 수 있다고 가정한다. 두 정보를 이용하면 구조물의 1차 고유진동수를 얻을 수 있다. 1층 가속도 정보는 구조물의 가력 정보로 활용한다. 최상층의 가속도이력응답에 대한 오차와 대상 구조물의 1차 고유진동수 오차를 최소화하는 구조물의 질량과 강성 정보를 유전자알고리즘을 이용해 예측하는 기법을 제시한다. 제약조건은 고려하지 않는다. 탐색공간을 의미하는 설계변수의 범위를 결정하기 위해 인공신경망 기반의 파라미터 예측기법을 제시한다. 또한 유전자알고리즘을 통해 얻게 되는 해를 개선시키기 위해 앞서 언급한 인공신경망을 활용한다. 제시한 기법을 검증하기 위해 5층 구조물 예제를 사용한다.

This study examines the seismic failure of RC low-rise building structures having irregularities at the ground story during the 15 November 2017 Pohang, Korea, earthquake, Mw = 5.4, which is the second strongest since the government began monitoring them in 1978 in South Korea. Some 2,000 private houses were damaged or destroyed in this earthquake. Particularly, serious damage to the piloti story of RC low-rise residential building structures of fewer than five stories was observed within 3 km of the epicenter with brittle shear failure of columns and walls due to severe torsional behavior. Buildings below six stories constructed before 2005 did not have to comply with seismic design requirements, so confinement detailing of columns and walls also led to inadequate performance. However, some buildings constructed after 2005 were damaged at the flexible side of the piloti story due to the high torsional irregularity. Based on these results, this study focuses on the problems of the seismic torsion design approach in current building codes.

Recently, measuring instruments for SHM of structures had being developed. In general, the wireless transmission of sensor signals, compared to its wired counterpart, is preferable due to its absence of triboelectric noise and elimination of the requirement for cumbersome cable. Preliminary studies on the continuous vibration measurement of high-rise buildings using MEMS sensors have been carried out. However, the research on the low-rise buildings with relatively small vibration levels is insufficient. Therefore, in this paper, we used the wireless MEMS sensor to compare and analyze the vibration measurements of three low-rise buildings.

The risk-based assessment, also called time-based assessment of structure is usually performed to provide seismic risk evaluation of a target structure for its entire life-cycle, e.g. 50 years. The prediction of collapse probability is the estimator in the risk-based assessment. While the risk-based assessment is the key in the performance-based earthquake engineering, its application is very limited because this evaluation method is very expensive in terms of simulation and computational efforts. So the evaluation database for many archetype structures usually serve as representative of the specific system. However, there is no such an assessment performed for building stocks in Korea. Consequently, the performance objective of current building code, KBC is not clear at least in a quantitative way. This shortcoming gives an unresolved issue to insurance industry, socio-economic impact, seismic safety policy in national and local governments. In this study, we evaluate the comprehensive seismic performance of an low-rise residential buildings with discontinuous structural walls, so called piloti-type structure which is commonly found in low-rise domestic building stocks. The collapse probability is obtained using the risk integral of a conditioned collapse capacity function and regression of current hazard curve. Based on this approach it is expected to provide a robust tool to seismic safety policy as well as seismic risk analysis such as Probable Maximum Loss (PML) commonly used in the insurance industry.

This study is the compared seismic performance that are difference between the performance of structures on various site classes and beam-column connection. this analysis model was designed the previous earthquake load. To compare the performance levels of the structure was subjected to nonlinear static and nonlinear dynamic analysis. Nonlinear analysis was used to The Perform 3D program. Nonlinear static analysis was compared with the performance point and Nonlinear dynamic analysis was compared the drift ratio(%). Analysis results, the soft site class of the displacement was more increase than rock site classes of the displacement. Also The smaller the displacement was increased beam-column connection stiffness.

In this study, shaking table test was carried out to evaluate the seismic behavior and performance of low-rise reinforced concrete (RC) piloti structures with and without retrofit. The specimens were designed considering the characteristics of existing building with pilotis such as natural period, distribution factor of strength and stiffness between columns and core wall on the first soft story. The test for the non-retrofit specimen showed that damage was concentrated on the stiffer member on the same floor as the core wall failed by shear fracture whereas columns experienced slight flexural cracks. Considering the failure mode of the non-retrofit specimen, the retrofit method using steel rod damper was presented for improving the seismic performance of piloti structures. The results of the test for retrofit specimen revealed that the retrofit method was effective for controlling the damage as the main RC structural members were not destroyed and most of input energy was dissipated by hysteretic behavior of the damper.

The construction costs for nonstructural systems such as mechanical/electrical equipment, ceiling system, and piping system occupy a significant proportion of the total cost. These nonstructural systems can also cause considerable economic losses and loss of life during and after an earthquake. Therefore, reduction of seismic risk of nonstructural components has been emerging as a key aspect of research in recent year. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the seismic performance of a single-story and multi-story piping system installed in low-rise building and to identify the seismic vulnerability of the current piping systems. The seismic performance evaluation of the piping systems was conducted with 5 different earthquakes to account for the ground motion uncertainty and the preliminary results demonstrated that the maximum displacements of each floor in the multi-story piping system increased linearly with increasing floor level in the building system. This study revealed that the current design piping systems are significantly sensitive to the effect of floor height, which stress the necessity to improve the seismic performance of the current piping systems by, for example, strengthening with seismic sway bracing using transverse/longitudinal bracing cables or hangers.

In this study, a shear wall-slab damper system for seismic retrofitting of existing low-rise school buildings was proposed. The proposed system is to control the earthquake-induced vibration of the existing building structures using the energy dissipation effect of hysteretic damper inserted between the extended shear wall and existing moment frame. The numerical analyses were performed to investigate the vibration control efficiency of the shear wall-slab damper system and to identify the range of optimal yielding strength of the slab damper. In addition, variation of shear force of the extended shear wall with regard to the yield strength of the dampers in a range from 10 to 100 percent of the maximum base shear force of the retrofitted structure was investigated. The numerical analyses results showed that the maximum displacement of the structures with the slab damper whose yield strength is equal to 20 percent of the maximum base shear. On top of that, the slab damper system reduced the shear force of the shear wall by about 50 percent in comparison with the existing frame-shear wall system with rigid diaphragm slabs.

In this study, the non-linear seismic response analysis of the 2F piloti type building model with varying stiffness and strength distribution between soft-weak story(1F) and upper story(2F). The standard model, whose stiffness and strength ratio of the first story is 10% and 100% comparing the upper story respectively, suffered from shear failure of the core wall on the first story. Otherwise, the models with decreased stiffness or strength ratio of the first story damaged more than the standard model and the lack of the strength was more impactful. The model with improved strength contributed to reduce damage on the first story, while the improved stiffness only was not effective on the reduction of the damage level. Overall, in case that the strength and stiffness ratio of the first story increased, damage distributed in balance along the story.

The objectives of this research are to compute performance point using capacity spectrum analysis, and to use structural damage states classification and damage state criteria through interstory drift angle presented in HAZUS. Seismic fragility curve is drawn by seismic fragility parameter and predict damage probability about non seismic reinforced concrete buildings according to building shapes.
