Abstract

In order to evaluate the seismic performance of damaged reinforced concrete members, particularly bridge piers, an inelastic time-dependent element is proposed. The proposed element enables increased characteristics due to structural intervention(i.e., repair or retrofitting) to be accurately reflected to the degraded strength and stiffness of the members. The inelastic time-dependent element having both birth and death time can freely be activated within the user-defined time intervals during static and dynamic time-history analysis. Comparative studies are carried out for reinforced concrete bridge piers that are repaired and retrofitted. Analytical predictions using the developed element show reasonable correlation with experimental results. Also conducted is a nonlinear time-history analysis of a reinforced concrete bridge under multiple earthquakes. The comparative analytical results prove the validation of current development. In all, it is concluded that the present element is capable of providing salient features for the healthy evaluation of seismic performance and hence seismic stability assessment of RC bridge piers being repaired and retrofitted.

손상된 구조부재, 특히 철근콘크리트교량 교각의 내진성능을 정확하게 평가할 수 있도록 하기 위하여 비탄성 시간종속요소를 제안하였다. 비탄성 시간종속요소는 강도 및 강성의 저하된 상태를 유지한 부재상태에 보수 및 보강에 의한 특성치들의 증가분에 대한 효과를 고려할 수 있는 요소이다. 이 시간종속요소는 활성시작시간과 활성끝시간을 갖는 비탄성 요소로서 정적시간이력해석이나 동적시간이력해석의 경우, 사용자가 원하는 시간간격 내에서 자유롭게 활성화를 시킬 수 있는 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서 개발된 시간종속요소를 이용한 해석결과를 보수 및 보강된 철근콘크리트 교각 실험결과와 비교하였고 전반적으로 만족할만한 상관관계를 얻었다. 아울러 연속지진하중하에서 철근콘크리트 교량의 비선형 시간이력의 비교해석을 통하여 개발된 요소의 타당성을 입증하였다. 결론적으로 본 연구에서 개발된 시간종속요소는 보수 및 보강후의 철근콘크리트교량 교각의 내진수행능력 산정에 유용한 자료를 제공하여 구조물의 전반적인 내진안정성 검토에 크게 기여를 할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
