The objective of this experimental research is to assess the seismic performance of circular RC bridge pier specimens retrofitted with fibers which were designed as a prototype of Hagal bridge in the city of Suwon, Korea. Pseudo dynamic test has been done for four(4) test specimens which were nonseismically or seismically designed by the related provisions of the Korea roadway bridge design specification, and four nonseisemic test specimens retrofitted with fibers in the plastic hinge region. Glass and carbon fiber sheets were used for the seismic capacity enhancement of circular test specimens. Important test parameters were confinement steel ratio, load pattern, and retrofitting. The seismic behavior has been analyzed through the displacement ductility, energy analysis, and capacity spectrum. Approximate 7.7 ∼8.7 displacement ductility was observed for nonseismic test specimens retrofitted with fibers subjected to Korea Highway Cooperation artificial earthquake motions. It is concluded that these retrofitted test specimens could have sufficient seismic capacity in the region of moderate seismic zone.

내진 설계규정이 적용되기 이전에 시공되어 사용 중인 교량의 경우 지진 발생시 교각의 파괴 또는 구조적 피해는 교량 전체 시스템의 붕괴를 초래하므로 지진하중에 대하여 피해를 최소화해야 한다. 이를 위해 내진설계규정이 적용되기 이전의 교량 또는 지진취약지역으로 분류된 곳의 교량, 사회적 중요도가 높은 교량에 대해 교각의 내진성능보강을 실시하고 있다. 2007년 말 국토해양부가 관리하고 있는 11,940개 교량 중 지진 발생시 피해가 우려되는 1,342개(일반국도 682개, 고속국도 600개) 교량에 대해 2006년부터 내진보강이 착수되었고 2009년에는 확대 추진하여 일반국도 80개교, 고속국도 100개교에 대한 보강을 실시하였다. 이와 같이 확대 추진되고 있는 정책에 반해, 내진보강 기술 및 제품이 부족하고 새로운 내진보강재 개발이 불가피해지고 있는 것이 현실이다. 소성영역에서의 횡방향 철근은 지진 시 종방향 철근의 좌굴과 콘크리트의 압축강도저하를 방지하며, 전단보강철근으로도 중요한 역할을 하여 교각의 전단강도를 증가시킨다. 그러나 이러한 횡방향 철근은 초기 설계에 의한 시공이 종료된 후 기존의 성능을 증가시키기 위하여 철근량을 증가하거나 단면의 변화를 주기에는 매우 어려운 일이다. 따라서 내진성능을 위한 단면력 증가를 위하여 다양한 재료의 보강재와 형식이 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 원형교각 모델의 구조해석을 이용해 내진성능평가를 선행한 후 실험체를 제작, Helical Bar를 보강하여 준정적 실험을 통해 내진보강성능을 평가하였다. 압축설계강도 $f_{ck}=240kgf/cm^2$를 기준으로 교량등급 2등교인 일반적인 도로교의 1/4축소모형을 설계, 기초부는 $1,200{\times}600{\times}600$ (mm)으로 철근과 콘크리트로 구성하였으며, 기둥부는 직경 400mm, 높이 1,250mm 크기의 철근콘크리트 원형 교각 실험체를 제작하였다. 제작된 실험체는 총 3개로, 분류는 무보강 일반 실험체, Helical Bar 직경에 따른 분류, 보강간격에 따른 분류로 나누어진다.

본 연구에서는 용접 수평헌치로 보강된 철골 모멘트 접합부의 내진설계법을 제시하고자 한다. 최근의 실험결과에 의하면 보의 하부를 수평헌치로 용접하는 방안은 취약한 내진성능이 드러나 기존 철골 모멘트 접합부의 내진보강이나 내진성능이 뛰어난 건물의 구축에 매우 효과적임을 알 수 있다. 용점 삼각헌치로 보강된 접합부의 설계법은 최근에 미국의 연구자들에 의해 제시된 바가 있다. 그러나 이 설계법은 응력 전달 메커니즘이 상이한 수평헌티 접합부의 설계에는 적용될수 없다. 본 논문에서는 우선 수평헌치와 보의 상호작용 및 변형의 적합 조건을 고려하여 도출된 단순화된 해석적 응력전달 모형을 간략히 기술한다. 이를 기초로 수평헌치 접합부의 단계별 내진 설계절차를 제안한다. 아울러 헌티단부의 응력집중을 줄이는데 매우 효과적인 디테일도 제시하고자 한다.

The objective of this paper is to propose retrofit design methods of theRHS column-to-H beam connections with floor slabs. Referring to previous studies on the retrofitting of moment connections, it is clear that connections retrofitted with a stiffened RBS (SR) or a lengthened horizontal stiffener (LH) has an effect on decreasing the stress/strain concentration. A new design procedure using these two retrofitting methods was thus presented. In addition, this paper addressed various design or detailing options and recommended a procedure for designing the improved retrofitting method of steel moment connections. Finally, a pilot test was conducted to verify the design procedure.

In this study, seismic performance of existing RC frames reinforced with steel chevron bracing systems was experimentally evaluated. For this purpose, the unreinforced base specimen and seismically reinforced specimens with steel chevron bracing systems were fabricated and tested. Both strength and stiffness of the reinforced specimens were targeted about 2-3 times larger than the base specimen. Test results showed that the stiffness, strength, and ductility of the reinforced specimens considerably improved than those of unreinforced base specimen. Therefore, the results from this study could offer the basic information on the developing design guideline for the seismic reinforcement of RC frames.

This report describes the development and stability evaluation of a seismic retrofit method to evaluate the seismic performance of existing school buildings by analyzing the earthquake waveforms that occurred in Korea. Currently, Facilities for seismic retrofit designed for excessive reinforcement are being applied. To compensate for this, optimised the retrofit mothod suitable for domestic situation considering the characteristics of the seismic region, generated a Korean-style artificial seismic wave that meets the seismic design criteria, which is less frequent than other countries.

After introduction of the earthquake resistant design code, it is required to achieve seismic performance of existing bridges as well as earthquake resistant design of new bridges. The achievement of seismic performance for existing bridges should satisfy the no collapse requirement based on the basic concept of earthquake resistant design, therefore, various methods with different strengthening scale should be suggested according to bridge types and importance categories. At present for typical bridges, most studied and applied strengthening methods are bearing change, pier strengthening and shear key installation for improvement of seismic performance. In this study a typical existing bridge, for which earthquake resistant design is not considered, is selected as an analysis bridge. Design changes are carried out to satisfy the no collapse requirement by way of the ductile failure mechanism and seismic performances are checked. It is shown that the seismic performance of existing bridges can be achieved by way of redesign of bridge system, e.g. determination of pier design section for substructure and change of bearing function for connections between super/sub-structure.

In paper after the strong earthquake of recently the Korea neighborhood, the Korean government survey show that the 86% of school buildings in Korea are in potential damage risk and only 14% of them are designed as earthquake-resistance buildings. Earthquake Reinforcing projects of school have been a leading by the ministry of education, however their reinforcing methods done by not proved a engineering by experiment which results in uneconomical and uneffective rehabilitation for the future earthquake. An experimental and analytical study have been conducted for the shear reinforcing method of RC beam by axis and horizontal axis load using attaching composite beam. Based on the previous research, in this study, design examples are given to show the performance evaluation for the column reinforcing of old school buildings using nonlinear analysis is going to be conducted and strengthening method is going to be on the market after their performance is proved by the test.

In this study, The details for a seismic adapter designed to easily connect concrete structures and reinforcement materials for the in-plane reinforcement of aged structures were proposed. Proposed seismic adapter was tested for performance using a dynamic simulation on a 2-story column-beam structure, scaled to half of the real size. The experimental results showed that the reinforced test specimens using the seismic adapter improved their energy dissipation capacity by 3.5 times compared to the non-reinforced specimens. It was confirmed that the seismic adapter experienced no damage within its general usage range, thus proving its effectiveness. Subsequently, upon loading until the limit of deformation (a deformation angle of 3.3%), it was observed that one of the M10 bolts connecting the adapter and the reinforcement at the lower part of the first floor broke. Considering this finding, when applying seismic retrofitting in real situations, emphasis should be placed on the design of the bolts and anchors connecting the seismic adapter. This aspect warrants further research for validation.
