Abstract

A series of forced vibration tests and ambient vibration measurement was conducted on a four-story reinforced concrete building damaged in the 1994 Northridge earthquake. Both low amplitude broadband and moderate amplitude harmonic excitation were applied using a linear shaker and two eccentric mass shakers, respectively, and ambient vibrations were measured before and after each forced vibration test. Accelerations, interstory displacements, and curvature distributions were monitored using accelerometers, LVDTs and concrete strain gauges. Natural frequencies and the associated mode shapes fur the first 7 modes were identified. Fundamental frequencies determined from the eccentric mass shaker tests were 70% to 75% of the values determined using ambient vibration data, and 92% to 93% of the values determined using the linear shaker test data. Larger frequency drops were observed in the NS direction of the building, apparently due to damage that was induced during the Northridge earthquake.

노스리지 지진에 의해 손상을 받은4층 철근콘크리트조 골조건물을 대상으로 선형가진기 및 대용량의 편심가진기를 이용한 강제진동실험과 상시미진동 측정을 실시하였다. 미진동 가속도데이터 및 선형가진기에 의한 백색잡음 실험시의 가속도데이터로부터 구조물식별을 수행하여 7차모드까지의 고유진동수 및 모드감쇠비를 얻었다. 두대의 대용량 편심가진기를 사용하여 얻은 큰 진폭의 조화 진동하에서는 가속도데이터를 사용하여 각 방향 1차모드를 식별하였으며 변위계와 변형게이지를 이용하여 층간변위각, 기둥과 슬래브와 같은 구조부재의 곡률분포를 측정하였다. 각 경우 고유진동수는 진동의 크기가 클수록 낮아졌다. 즉, 편심가진기가력시 고유진동수는 상시미진동시에 비해 $70{\sim}75%$, 선형가진시가력시에 비해 $92{\sim}93%$ 정도로 낮게 나타났다. 이러한 진동수의 감소폭은 지진에 의해 큰 손상을 받았던 건물의 남북방향에서 크게 나타났다.
