Abstract

A procedure for figuring out proper amount of additional viscous damping required to keep the inelastic deformation of a plan-wise asymmetric structure within a given target performance point was developed. To this end the behavior of an asymmetric nonlinear structure after yielding is investigated. Then a formula for the required amount of equivalent damping was derived based on the ductility demand of the structure. The procedure was applied to a five-story asymmetric structure subjected to an earthquake load. According to the comparison with the results from the dynamic time-history analysis, the structure with viscous dampers installed in accordance with the proposed procedure showed satisfactory seismic performance in both the stiff and the flexible edges.

본 연구에서는 평면 비대칭건물의 비탄성 변위를 주어진 목표까지 제한하기 위하여 필요한 추가적인 감쇠량을 구하는 방법에 관하여 연구하였다. 이를 위하여 먼저 비대칭구조물의 항복 후 거동을 분석하고 구조물에 발생하는 연성도 요구량을 이용하여 필요한 등가 감쇠비를 유도하였다. 이러한 방법을 지진하중을 받는 5층 비대칭구조물에 적용하였다. 시간이력해석 결과와의 비교에 따르면 제안된 방법에 따라 점성감쇠기를 설치한 경우 주어진 지진하중에 대하여 약변 및 강변 모두 만족할만한 거동을 보이는 것으로 나타났다.
