Seismic isolation offers an attractive approach for reducing seismic loads in the building and its components. This paper deals with the seismic isolation effects due to variation in period ratio between superstructure and isolation layer of the building. Seismic isolation effects of the moment-resisting frames with the various period ratio were studied by nonlinear time history analysis, and the guidelines on the stiffness ratio of the superstructure and isolation layer of the building for the effective seismic isolation follow from the results of this study. It is recommended that the isolation period should be greater than 2.5 times of that of the superstructure for the effective seismic isolation.

압출공법(incremental launching method)은 교대 배후에 거더 제작장소를 설치하고, 콘크리트를 이어쳐서 교량거더를 제작하고, 이것을 잭(jack)으로 밀어내는 가설방법이다. 이 공법에 의해 시공되는 교량의 상부단면은 시공 중에 지간의 중앙부와 지점부에 일시적이나마 모두 위치하게 된다. 따라서 단면들은 자중에 의해 발생되는 최대 정모멘트와 최대 부모멘트, 그리고 최대 전단력을 모두 경험하게 되는 구조적 특성을 가지고 있다. 한편 거더의 캔틸레버 작용을 감소시키기 위하여 거더의 선단에 압출추진코(launching nose)를 부착시킨다. 상부단면에 발생하는 이 일시적인 응력의 크기는 압출추진코의 단면특성에 따라 달라진다. 본 논문에서는 압출추진코와 상부단면의 상호작용에 관한 해석식의 정확성을 유지하고, 활용도를 높이기 위해서 압출추진코를 유사등단면(강성;등단면, 중량;변단면)으로 가정하여 단순화된 해석식을 제안하였고, 압출추진코의 단면이 등단면으로 가정한 기존 해석식의 정확성을 향상시키기 위해서 다이아프램의 중량을 집중하중으로 치환시켜 변형된 등단면 해석식을 제안하였다. 그리고 제안된 2개의 해석식의 정확성과 활용성을 판단하기 위해 실제 ILM교량 설계자료들을 통해 전산구조해석 프로그램과, 기존 해석식들과 비교 분석 하였다.

The efficient foundation design of apartment buildings needs to include the effect of upper structure on foundation behavior. In this study, a foundation design method effectively considering upper structure stiffness using finite element analysis program is proposed. The analytical study showed that the proposed method reduces the allowable soil pressure under foundation and the amount of reinforcement as well as concrete for foundation.

The fire damage and structural performance of a steel-concrete composite superstructure under a highway bridge exposed to fire loading was evaluated. To enhance the accuracy and efficiency of the numerical analysis, a proposed fluid-structure interaction fire analysis method was implemented in Ansys Fluent and Ansys Mechanical. The temperature distribution and performance evaluation of the steel-concrete composite superstructure according to the vertical distance from the fire source to the bottom flange were evaluated using the proposed analysis method. From the analysis, the temperature of the concrete slab and the bottom flange of the steel-concrete composite superstructure exceeded the critical temperature. Also, when the vertical distance from the fire source was 13 m or greater, the fire damage of the steel-concrete composite superstructure was found to within a safe limit.

The structure of PSC box girder with FRP strut has a form of supporting the cantilever part in the widened upper slab by modifying the existing PSC box girder efficiently, and it is able to build an economical and aesthetically pleasing bridge as it reduces the size of the lower structure by reducing the self-weight of the upper structure. In this research, loading test of PSC Box Girder using full-scale mock-up was conducted and FEM analysis was performed. By comparing results, structural safety of the FRP strut and the upper slab following application of the strut in the PSC Box Girder Bridge were evaluated.

This study investigates the response of structures to tunnelling-induced ground movements in clay ground, varying tunnel excavation condition (tunnel depth and diameter), tunnel construction condition (ground loss), and tunnel ground condition (soft clay and stiff clay). Four-story block-bearing structures have been used because the structures can easily be characterized of the extent of damages with crack size and distribution. Numerical parametric studies have been used to investigate of the response of structures to varying tunnelling conditions. Numerical analysis has been conducted using Discrete Element Method (DEM) to have real cracks when the shear and tensile stress exceed the maximum shear and tensile strength. The results of structure responses from various parametric studies have been integrated to consider tunnel excavation condition, tunnel construction condition, and tunnel ground condition and provide a relationship chart among them. Using the chart, the response of structures to tunnelling can easily be evaluated in practice in clay ground.

Seismic structure pounding between adjacent superstructures may induce the destruction of pier and bridge superstructures and cause local damage that leads to the collapse of the whole bridge system. The pounding problem is related to the expansion of joints, gap distance and seismic response of the abutments. In this research, methods of the contact element approach, the linear spring model, the Kelvin-Voigt model and the Hertz model were studied to analyse the pounding characteristics. The shaking table test for a model specimen such as a bridge superstructure with elastomeric bearings was performed to evaluate the contact element approach methods. Relationships between the time history response from the numerical analysis results and the measured response from the shaking table test are compared. The experimental results were not well matched with the numerical analysis results using the existing pounding stiffness models. Therefore, in this study, coefficients are proposed to calculate the appropriate pounding stiffness ratio.
