Considering the contribution of industrial facilities to the national economy, securing operability against earthquakes is very important. However, the basic concept of current seismic design mainly allows ductile behavior of facilities against large-scale earthquakes and only considers structural safety for the purpose of preventing collapse. In order to secure the operability of industrial facilities, the level of seismic performance to maintain operability may vary depending on the structural behavior characteristics of the industrial facility, and a seismic design method is needed to satisfy this. In this study, a ground storage tanks Nonlinear seismic behavior characteristics(R-μ-T) were analyzed through nonlinear response history analysis, and based on this, a new reliability-based, performance-based seismic design method was proposed.

In the current domestic and overseas standards concerning seismic design, especially on the capacity & demand spectra in the multi-story building, failure is caused more by story drift than by displacement; and the existing capacity spectrum method (CSM) does not make a close estimate of story drift because response is derived using displacement. Therefore, this paper proposes an improved CSM to estimate story drift and its direct effect on the collapse of structures, yet still maintaining the same advantage and convenience of the existing CSM about a most basic model of multi-story building: shear building. To establish its reliability, the proposed method is applied to an example model and results are then compared with those obtained through nonlinear time-history analysis.

내진설계의 기본 개념은 보를 기둥보다 약하게 설계하여 보에 소성힌지를 발생시켜 구조물 전체의 큰 변형을 방지하는 것이다. ACI 352R-02에서는 지역의 지진특성에 따라서 접합부의 상세 설계법을 구분하여 적용한다. 하지만 보와 접합부의 내력 차이가 상대적으로 작게 설계된 구조물의 경우 탄성 범위를 유지해야 하는 경우의 접합부에도 파괴가 발생할 가능성이 있다. 횡하중이 작용할 때 접합부 내부는 전단력의 지배를 받게 되고, 전단내력과 부착내력에 따라서 파괴모드가 결정된다. 본 논문에서는 양방향 반복하중이 작용하는 10개의 보-기둥 접합부를 통해서 접합부와 인접보의 전단내력 차이에 따라서 발생하는 파괴모드를 관찰하고 접합부 내의 전단내력 및 부착내력의 감소로 인해 발생하는 부재의 연성에 대해서 관찰하였다.

A procedure for figuring out proper amount of additional viscous damping required to keep the inelastic deformation of a plan-wise asymmetric structure within a given target performance point was developed. To this end the behavior of an asymmetric nonlinear structure after yielding is investigated. Then a formula for the required amount of equivalent damping was derived based on the ductility demand of the structure. The procedure was applied to a five-story asymmetric structure subjected to an earthquake load. According to the comparison with the results from the dynamic time-history analysis, the structure with viscous dampers installed in accordance with the proposed procedure showed satisfactory seismic performance in both the stiff and the flexible edges.

High-rise residential buildings these days tend to adopt a building frame system as primary earthquake resisting structural system for some architectural reasons. But there exist several ambiguities in designing such building frame systems according to current codes with regards to : the effective stiffness property of RC cracked section in static and dynamic analyses, analytical model to evaluate story drift ratio, and deformation compatibility requirements of frames. The comparative study for these issues by appling KBC 2005 to a typical building frame system shows that demands of member strength and story drift ratio can be different significantly depending on engineer's Interpretation and application of code requirements. And a building frame system can be noneconomical, compared with the dual system, because of higher demands on strength or ductility in both frames and shear walls.

감포댐은 2006년 준공하여 각종 시설 및 설비의 노후화가 진행중에 있으며, 최근 감포댐 인근 지역에서 발생한 경주지진(규모 5.8) 및 포항지진(규모 5.4)이 발생하여 지진시 시설물의 안전성에 대해 중요성이 대두되고 있었다. 이에 감포댐 안전성강화 사업을 추진하게 되었고, 주요 사업내용은 취수탑 관리교 내진보강, 댐체 심벽보강을 통한 댐체 안전성확보, 비상방류시설 개선이다. 취수탑 관리교는 교각단면의 변위연성도 및 교량받침에 의한 구조물 안전성 평가를 시행하였고, 단면강도는 모멘트-곡률해석법에서 탄성영역의 단면강도 대비 탄성지진력을 비교하여 안전성을 검토하였다. 검토결과 교량받침의 내진성능은 부족한 것으로 검토되어 유량제어형 멀티펌프와 안전잭을 이용한 변위제어 방식의 교량동시 인상공법이 가능하고 인상정밀도 ±0.5mm이내의 성능을 가진 교량인상공법 적용하여 보강을 하는 것으로 계획하였다. 댐체 심벽보강을 위해 먼저 전기비저항탐사를 수행하여 전기비저항대를 탐사하여 심벽부에서 포화대가 형성된 부위를 조사하였다. 그리고 댐 상·하류에 전극을 설치하고 전류를 발생시켜 측정 지점별 자기장을 측정을 통하여 댐체내 침투에 따른 유로 형성여부 파악을 위한 전자기장탐사를 시행하였다. 마지막으로 심벽 시추조사를 시행하여 공내수를 조사하였다. 조사결과 포화대의 위치 및 이상대가 다양한 것으로 나타났으며, 이는 불특정 지점에 연약대가 존재한다 판단하여 심벽부 보강계획을 전반적으로 적용하는 것으로 결정하였다. 비상방류시설은 최근 15년 실측자료의 홍수기(6~9월) 평균유입량을 적용하여 검토하였으며 검토결과 배제대상 높이 75%까지는 3.7일, 완전배제까지는 11.2일이 걸려 댐설계기준을 충족하는 것으로 검토되다. 다만 감포댐 비상방류시설이 하천제방과 직각방향으로 형성되어 있고, 하천의 폭이 좁아 과거 방류시에도 제방을 월류하는 것으로 조사되어 하천의 세굴을 방지하고 제방 안전성을 확보하기 위하여 비상방류시설에 감세공을 설치하고, 제방에 디플렉터 옹벽을 설치하는 것으로 계획하였다. 감세공은 2번에 걸친 감세효과로 방류시 하류바닥 및 옹벽 보호 효과가 큰 미국 USBR의 TypeVI를 적용하였으며, Flow-3D 모델링을 통하여 제방에 월류가 발생하지 않는 최적의 대안 옹벽규모를 산정하였다.

This paper presents test results on eight reduced beam section(RBS) steel moment connections. The testing program addressed bolted versus welded web connection and panel zone(PZ) strength as key variables, Specimens with medium PZ strength were designed to promote energy dissipation from both PZ and RBS regions such that the requirement for expensive doublet plates could be reduced. Both strong and medium PZ specimens with a welded web connection were able to provide satisfactory connection rotation capacity for special moment-resisting frames. On the other hand, specimens with a bolted web connection performed poorly due to premature brittle fracture of the beam flange of the weld access hole. If fracture within the beam flange groove weld was avoided using quality welding, the fracture tended to move into the beam flange base metal of the weld access hole. Plausible explanation of a higher incidence of base metal fracture in bolted web specimens was presented. The measured strain data confirmed that the classical beam theory dose not provide reliable shear transfer prediction in the connection. The practice of providing web bolts uniformly along the beam depth was brought into question. Criteria for a balanced PZ strength improves the plastic rotation capacity while reduces the amount of beam distortion ore also proposed.

A general earthquake resistant design philosophy of ductile frame buildings allows beams to form plastic hinges adjacent to beam-column connections. In order to carry out this design philosophy, the ultimate bond or shear strength of the beam should be greater than the flexural yielding force and should not degrade before reaching its required ductility. The behavior of RC members dominated by bond or shear action reveals a dramatic reduction of energy dissipation in the hysteretic response due to the severe pinching effects. In this study, a method was proposed to predict the deformability of reinforced concrete members with short-span-to-depth-ratios, which would result in bond failure after flexural yielding. Repeated or cyclic loading produces a progressive deterioration of bond that may lead to failure at lower cyclic bond stress levels. Accumulation of bond damage is caused by the propagation of micro-cracks and progressive crushing of concrete in front of the lugs. The proposed method takes into account bond deterioration due to the degradation of concrete in the post yield range. In order to verify bond deformability of the proposed method, the predicted results were compared with the experimental results of RC members reported in the technical literature. Comparisons between the observed and calculated bond deformability of the tested RC members showed reasonably good agreement.

In this study, the concepts and procedures of the seismic damage analysis methods are examined for both the element-level and the system-level. The seismic damage analysis at the element-level is performed for several example structures using existing method for structural elements or single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems such as the Park and Ang method. In order to analyze seismic damage at the system-level, two types of procedures are used. In the first type of procedure, the system-level seismic responses can be estimated by using the system representative response method(SRRM), or the equivalent SDOF system response method (ESDOF-SRM). Then, the system-level seismic damage is analyzed from the system-level seismic responses using existing method for structural elements or SDOF systems. IN the second type of procedure, the system-level seismic damages are analyzed using the element damage combination method (EDCM) combing the element-level damage indices determined by existing method. To compare tendency of the seismic damage analysis using each methods, example analysis is accomplished for several cases of different structures and different earthquake excitation.

The energy-based seismic design method Is more rational in comparison with current seismic design code in that it can directly account for the effects of cumulative damage by earthquake and hysteretic behavior of the structure. However there are research results that don't reach a consensus depending on the ground motion characteristic and structural properties. For that reason in this study the influences of ground motion characteristics and structural properties on energy demands were evaluated using 100 earthquake ground motions recorded in different soil conditions, and the results obtained were compared with those of previous works. Results show that ductility ratios and sue conditions have significant influence on input energy. The results show that the ratio of hysteretic to input energy is considerably influenced by the ductility ratio, damping ratio, and strong motion duration, while the effect of site condition is insignificant.
