Most commercial buildings among existing RC buildings in Korea have a multi-story wall-frame structure where RC shear wall is commonly used as its core at stairways or elevators. The members of the existing middle and low-rise wall-frame buildings are likely arranged in ordinary details considering building occupancy, and the importance and difficulty of member design. This is because there are few limitations, considerations, and financial burdens on the code for designing members with ordinary details. Compared with the intermediate or unique details, the ductility and overstrength are insufficient. Furthermore, the behavior of the member can be shear-dominated. Since shear failure in vertical members can cause a collapse of the entire structure, nonlinear characteristics such as shear strength and stiffness deterioration should be adequately reflected in the analysis model. With this background, an 8-story RC wall-frame building was designed as a building frame system with ordinary shear walls, and the effect of reflecting the shear failure mode of columns and walls on the collapse mechanism was investigated. As a result, the shear failure mode effect on the collapse mechanism was evident in walls, not columns. Consequently, it is recommended that the shear behavior characteristics of walls are explicitly considered in the analysis of wall-frame buildings with ordinary details.

일반설계에서 탄성거동을 전제로 구조물을 설계하는 것과 달리 내진설계는 구조물의 소성거동을 규명하고 조정하여 붕괴를 방지하는 것이 목적이다. 일반교량의 경우에 요구되는 붕괴방지수준은 교량의 특정한 구조부재의 소성거동으로 낙교를 방지하여 지진발생 이후에 긴급차량의 통과를 가능하게 하는 것이다. 이러한 소성거동은 연결부분 또는 교각기둥에 제한되고 각 경우에 적절한 조치가 요구된다. 도로교설계기준은 교각기둥에서 소성힌지를 형성하여 연성붕괴기구를 구성하는 설계방식과 함께 철근콘크리트 교각을 하부구조로 하는 교량을 대상으로 연결부분의 항복을 이용하여 취성붕괴기구를 구성하는 연성도 내진설계를 부록으로 제시하고 있다. 이 연구에서는 철근콘크리트 교각기둥과 강재받침으로 설계된 일반교량을 선정하고 연성붕괴기구와 취성붕괴기구를 모두 고려한 붕괴방지 설계절차 및 도로교설계기준에 요구되는 수정사항을 제안하였다.

The artificial neural network (ANN) based damage detection method is prposed for the steel moment frames with beam-hinge collapse mechanism. The natural frequencies, modeshapes, flexural moment of columns are employed as the values for the input layer while the raios of rotational stiffness of connections before and after damage are employed as the values for the output layer. The 5-story steel moment frame with beam-hinge collapse mechanism is used as the example structure.
