Code-compliant seismic design should be essentially applied to realize the so-called emulative performance of precast concrete (PC) lateral force-resisting systems, and this study developed simple procedures to design precast industrial buildings with intermediate precast bearing wall systems considering both the effect of seismic and blast loads. Seismic design provisions specified in ACI 318 and ASCE 7 can be directly adopted, for which the so-called 1.5S y condition is addressed in PC wall-to-wall and wall-to-base connections. Various coupling options were considered and addressed in the seismic design of wall-to-wall connections for the longitudinal and transverse design directions to secure optimized performance and better economic feasibility. On the other hand, two possible methods were adopted in blast analysis: 1) Equivalent static analysis (ESA) based on the simplified graphic method and 2) Incremental dynamic time-history analysis (IDTHA). The ESA is physically austere to use in practice for a typical industrial PC-bearing wall system. Still, it showed an overestimating trend in terms of the lateral deformation. The coupling action between precast wall segments appears to be inevitably required due to substantially large blast loads compared to seismic loads with increasing blast risk levels. Even with the coupled-precast shear walls, the design outcome obtained from the ESA method might not be entirely satisfactory to the drift criteria presented by the ASCE Blast Design Manual. This drawback can be overcome by addressing the IDTHA method, where all the design criteria were fully satisfied with precast shear walls’ non-coupling and group-coupling strength, where each individual or grouped shear fence was designed to possess 1.5S y for the seismic design.

By developing molds and facilities to horizontally mold the functional part of the dry-cast concrete block, We intend to develop molds and a series of facilities to horizontally mold the functional part of the dry-cast concrete block to increase production per cycle while maintaining existing production methods and major facilities. In order to do so, CAE analysis is first required to develop molds and facilities for horizontally molding the functional part of the drycast concrete block in the horizontal direction. The procedure will be carried out by reviewing the validity of boundary conditions and physical properties, 3D modeling, grid generation, construction of analysis models, model validity, analysis according to frequency changes, and analysis according to physical properties. First, through the comparison of two-point support, three-point support, and two-point and three-point support in the constraint conditions, We would like to compare it with the actual molded product in the horizontal direction. But first of all, it is considered two-point support in the constraint conditions in this paper.

Recently, in newly constructed apartment buildings, the exterior wall structures have been characterized by thinness, having various openings, and a significantly low reinforcement ratio. In this study, a nonlinear finite element analysis was performed to investigate the crack damage characteristics of the exterior wall structure. The limited analysis models for a 10-story exterior wall were constructed based on the prototype apartment building, and nonlinear static analysis (push-over analysis) was performed. Based on the finite element (FE) analysis model, the parametric study was conducted to investigate the effects of various design parameters on the strength and crack width of the exterior walls. As the parameters, the vertical reinforcement ratio and horizontal reinforcement ratio of the wall, as well as the uniformly distributed longitudinal reinforcement ratio and shear reinforcement ratio of the connection beam, were addressed. The analysis results showed that the strength and deformation capacity of the prototype exterior walls were limited by the failure of the connection beam prior to the flexural yielding of the walls. Thus, the increase of wall reinforcement limitedly affected the failure modes, peak strengths, and crack damages. On the other hand, when the reinforcement ratio of the connection beams was increased, the peak strength was increased due to the increase in the load-carrying capacity of the connection beams. Further, the crack damage index decreased as the reinforcement ratio of the connection beam increased. In particular, it was more effective to increase the uniformly distributed longitudinal reinforcement ratio in the connection beams to decrease the crack damage of the coupling beams, regardless of the type of the prototype exterior walls.

In this study, the seismic safety of nuclear power plant structures is evaluated and verified by performing a vibration test on a relatively simple shear wall structure. The shear walls are the prominent members of nuclear power plants and resist the seismic load. The shear wall structure is designed and manufactured to perform shaking table tests and is used to increase the accuracy of the analytical method by comparing them with the numerical analysis results. Different results will be checked and more efficient application methods will be studied depending on the method of designing reinforced concrete structures.

Structures of domestic nuclear power plants are designed to perform elastic behavior against beyond design earthquakes, but studies on the nonlinear behavior of structures have been insufficient since the beyond design earthquake. Accordingly, it is judged that it will be necessary to develop an evaluation method that considers the nonlinear behavioral characteristics to check the safety margin for a standard nuclear power plant structure. It is confirmed that the restoring force characteristics for each member level can be identified through the calculation formula, and the lateral stiffness for each story can also be easily calculated by JEAC 4601. In addition, as a result of applying the evaluation method of JEAC 4601 as a nonlinear restoring force model of the nuclear power plant, a certain degree of safety margin can be identified.

The reinforced retaining wall was introduced in the late 1980s and has been actively used since the 1990s in Korea 's expressway construction. At the beginning of the introduction, proper stiffeners and backfill materials were used and compaction management was thoroughly carried out, which was recognized as an economical and excellent workability method. However, the current understanding of reinforced earth retaining walls about 30 years old is a negative image such as inadequate reinforcement materials, backfill materials, insufficient compaction, and insufficient drainage system. In this way, the reinforced earth retaining walls that have been constructed in the midst of the negative perception are about 1,000 at the expressway site, and about 1000 will be completed in a few years and about 2,000 will be used. Most of the problems of reinforced earth retaining wall were found during maintenance, and countermeasures are suggested by tracing back to what problems were observed in the design and construction of the observed phenomena. The retaining walls to be installed in future maintenance should be minimized in designing and constructing to prevent problems. It is estimated that such a problem can be solved by changing the recognition. Therefore, in this study, damage cases of reinforcement retaining wall which is frequently occurred in the expressway of Korea were analyzed to derive the preventive maintenance method of reinforced earth retaining walls. Then, the problems and countermeasures were analyzed for each type of damage.

Observations of the damages to high-rise reinforced concrete (RC) wall building structures caused by by recent earthquakes in Chile (Mw 8.8, February 2010) and New Zealand (February 2011, ML 6.3) have generally exceeded expectations. Firstly, this study estimated the seismic damage levels of 15-story RC box-type wall building structures using the analytical models calibrated by the results of a shaking table test on a 1:5 scale 10-story RC box-type wall building model. Then, the seismic fragility analysis of the prototype model was conducted by using the SAC/FEMA method and the incremental dynamic analysis (IDA). To compensate for the uncertainties and variability of ground motion and its impacts on the prototype model, in the SAC/FEMA method, a total of 61 ground motion records were selected from 20 earthquakes, with a magnitude ranging from 5.9 to 8.8 and an epicentral distance ranging from 5 to 105km. In the IDA, a total of 11 ground motion records were used based on the uniform hazard response spectrum representing a return period of 2,475 years. As a result, the probabilities that the limits of the serviceability, damage control, and collapse prevention would be exceeded were as follows: from the SAC/FEMA method: 79%, 0.3%, and 0%, respectively; and from the IDA: 57%, 1.7%, and 0%, respectively.

The purpose of this study is to develop a new seismic resistant method by using precast concrete wall panels for existing low-rise, reinforced concrete beam-column buildings such as school buildings. Three quasi-static hysteresis loading tests were experimentally performed on one unreinforced beam-column specimen and two reinforced specimens with L-type precast wall panels. The results were analyzed to find that the specimen with anchored connection experienced shear failure, while the other specimen with steel plate connection principally manifested flexural failure. The ultimate strength of the specimens was determined to be the weaker of the shear strength of top connection and flexural strength at the critical section of precast panel. In this setup of L-type panel specimens, if a push loading is applied to the reinforced concrete column on one side and push the precast concrete panel, a pull loading from upper shear connection is to be applied to the other side of the top shear connection of precast panel. Since the composite flexural behavior of the two members govern the total behavior during the push loading process, the ultimate horizontal resistance of this specimen was not directly influenced by shear strength at the top connection of precast panel. However, the RC column and PC wall panel member mainly exhibited non-composite behavior during the pull loading process. The ultimate horizontal resistance was directly influenced by the shear strength of top connection because the pull loading from the beam applied directly to the upper shear connection. The analytical result for the internal shear resistance at the connection pursuant to the anchor shear design of ACI 318M-11 Appendix-D except for the equation to predict the concrete breakout failure strength at the concrete side, principally agreed with the experimental result based on the elastic analysis of Midas-Zen by using the largest loading from experiment.

This study aims at developing a new seismic resistant method by using precast concrete wall panels for existing low-rise, reinforced concrete beam-column buildings such as school buildings. Three quasi-static hysteresis loading tests were performed on one unreinforced beam-column specimen and two reinforced specimens with U-type precast wall panels. Top shear connection of the PC panel was required to show the composite strength of RC column and PC wall panel. However, the strength of the connection did not influence directly on the ultimate loading capacities of the specimens in the positive loading because the loaded RC column push the side of PC wall panel and it moved horizontally before the shear connector receive the concentrated shear force in the positive loading process. Under the positive loading sequence(push loading), the reinforced concrete column and PC panel showed flexural strength which is larger than 97% of the composite section because of the rigid binding at the top of precast panel. Similar load-deformation relationship and ultimated horizontal load capacities were shown in the test of PR1-LA and PR1-LP specimens because they have same section dimension and detail at the flexural critical section. An average of 4.7 times increase in the positive maximum loading(average 967kN) and 2.7 times increase in the negative maximum loading(average 592.5kN) had resulted from the test of seismic resistant specimens with anchored and welded steel plate connections than that of unreinforced beam-column specimen. The maximum drift ratios were also shown between 1.0% and 1.4%.

RC shear wall sections which have irregular shapes such as T, ㄱ, ㄷ sections are typically used in low-rise buildings in Korea. Pushover analysis of building containing such members costs a lot of computation time and needs professional knowledge since it requires complicated modeling and, sometimes, fails to converge. In this study, a method using an equivalent column element for the shear wall is proposed. The equivalent column element consists of an elastic column, an inelastic rotational spring, and rigid beams. The inelastic properties of the rotational spring represent the nonlinear behavior of the shearwall and are obtained from the section analysis results and moment distribution for the member. The use of an axial force to compensate the difference in the axial deformation between the equivalent column element and the actual shear wall is also proposed. The proposed method is applied for the pushover analysis of a 5- story shear wall-frame building and the results are compared with ones using the fiber elements. The comparison shows that the inelastic behavior at the same drift was comparable. However, the performance points estimated using the pushover curves showed some deviations, which seem to be caused by the differences of estimated yield point and damping ratios.

지진취약도 분석은 원자력 발전소의 내진성능평가를 위하여 발전되어져 왔지만, 현재는 적용성이 건물과 교량 등에도 확대되어지고 있다. 일반적으로 지진취약도 곡선은 수많은 지진가속도 기록을 이용하여 비선형 시간이력해석으로 구한다. 비선형 시간이력해석에 의한 지진취약도 분석은 구조물의 모델링과 해석에 많은 시간이 소요되는 과정을 요구한다. 비선형 시간이력해석의 이와 같은 약점을 보완하기 위해서 변위계수법과 역량스펙트럼 방법과 같은 간단한 해석방법을 지진취약도 분석에 적용하였다. 변위계수법과 역량 스펙트럼 방법을 적용한 지진취약도 곡선의 정확성을 평가하기 위하여, 철근콘크리트 전단벽 구조물에 대한 변위계수법과 역량스펙트럼 방법을 적용한 지진취약도 곡선을 비선형 시간이력해석에 의해 구해진 지진취약도 곡선과 비교하였다. 지진취약도 곡선의 작성을 위해서는 설계스펙트럼에 대응되는 190개의 인공지진과 Shinozuka 등이 제안한 방법이 적용되었다.

일반적으로 전단벽은 횡력저항 요소로서 널리 이용되고 있다. 대부분의 전단벽 구조물은 통로의 목적으로 개구부를 필요로 하게 되고 전단벽들 사이가 슬래브나 연결보로 연결된 병렬전단벽의 형태를 띠게 된다. 본 연구에서는 병렬전단벽 구조물의 연결보 중앙부에 LRB(Lead Rubber Bearing)를 도입하였고 이 시스템의 풍응답 저감성능을 검토하였다. 제안된 방법의 효과를 살펴보기 위하여 20층 및 30층 예제구조물을 구성하였고 인공풍하중을 작성하여 경계비선형 시간이력해석을 수행하였다. 제안된 방법이 풍하중을 받는 고층 병렬전단벽 구조물의 사용성 향상에 도움을 줄 수 있는지 평가하기 위하여 일본 진동성능평가기준을 적용하여 보았다. 해석결과 본 논문에서 제안하는 LRB를 사용하여 병렬전단벽을 연결하는 방식이 풍응답 제어성능 개선에 효과가 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

대부분의 전단벽 구조물은 통로의 목적으로 개구부를 필요로 하게 되고 전단벽들 사이가 슬래브나 연결보로 연결된 병렬 전단벽의 형태를 띠게 된다. 이러한 구조물에 지진하중이 작용할 때 연결보에 과도한 전단력이 작용하여 연결보가 취성적으로 파괴되거나 전단벽이 먼저 항복하는 문제점이 발생할 수 있다. 이를 방지하기 위하여 연결보에 감쇠장치를 설치하게 되면 구조물의 진동제어효과와 더불어 연결보의 응력집중 및 취성적 파괴를 막을 수 있어서 내진성능 향상을 기대할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 병렬전단벽 연결보 중앙부에 LRB (Lead Rubber Bearing)가 설치된 구조물의 지진응답제어효과 및 응력의 분포를 평가하여 구조적 효율성을 확인하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 병렬전단벽의 거동을 비교적 정확하게 모사할 수 있는 모형화 방법을 제안하였고, 제안된 모형화 방법을 통하여 지진하중을 받는 예제 병렬구조물에 대한 시간이력해석을 수행한 후 지진응답제어성능을 검토하였다.
