Abstract

Masonry structures are used as bearing walls in small buildings, but they are generally considered non-bearing walls. They are used as partition walls that divide the interior spaces of the frame structures of buildings. In addition, wetting techniques that use mortar as an adhesive between blocks or bricks in construction are vulnerable to climatic conditions, especially cracks in mortar, which can cause conduction collapse of the walls in seismic loading. The purpose of this research was to propose a dry concrete block construction method that complements the weak axial shear stiffness and improves the weakness of the wet construction method as well as to investigate its structural behavior. In this study, the material properties of concrete blocks were examined, and the seismic performance of the proposed dry assembly structure was verified by structural behavior tests on horizontal cyclic loads. First, in these study results, concrete blocks can be applied to the dry block construction method instead of wet construction methods because they secure more than C-type blocks in KS regulations. Second, the structural performance of the wall against a horizontal cyclic load indicates that the resisting force of the assembly block wall is increased by increasing the horizontal length of the wall, forming several diagonal cracks. Finally, the proposed dry block wall structure requires a seismic performance assessment considering that the ratio of the shape of the wall by height and length is considered a major influence variable on the structural behavior under a horizontal load.

조적구조는 소규모 건축물에서는 내력벽으로 사용되나 일반적으로 비내력벽으로 간주되어 건축물 골조구조의 내부공간을 구분하는 칸막이벽으로 활용되어진다. 또한 조적공사에서 블록이나 벽돌간의 접착제로 모르타르를 사용하는 습식공법은 양생시간이 필요하여 기후조건에 영향을 받으며, 특히 지진과 같은 횡력에 대해 모르타르의 균열로 벽체의 전도붕괴 등이 발생할 수 있어 매우 취약한 구조이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 조적구조의 약축방향 전단강성을 보완하고 습식공법의 단점을 개선하는 건식 콘크리트블록 공법을 제안하고 그 구조거동을 규명하고자 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 콘크리트블록의 재료물성을 살펴보고 수평반복하중에 대한 구조거동실험을 통해 제안된 건식조립 콘크리트블록 벽체의 내진성능을 검증하고자 한다. 본 연구결과에 의하면 첫째로, 콘크리트블록은 KS규준에 C종 블록의 재료성능 이상을 확보하고 있어 습식공법을 대신하는 건식공법에 적용할 수 있을 것이다. 둘째로, 수평반복하중에 대한 벽체의 구조성능은 벽체의 수평길이가 길어짐에 따라 사용된 표준형블록의 증가로 다수의 대각선방향 균열대를 형성하면서 조립블록벽체의 내력이 커짐을 알 수 있다. 끝으로 제안된 건식조립 콘크리트블록 벽체구조는 높이와 길이에 의한 벽체의 형상비가 수평 하중을 받는 구조거동에 주요 영향변수로 판단되어 이를 고려한 내진성능평가가 필요하다.
