The purpose of this study is to evaluate seismic capacity of seismically isolated building according to the earthquake motion record selection method. To analyze the seismic behavior, 20-story building is designed, which has base isolation system. The using earthquake motion record were selected by two categories. The one is a proposed earthquake record according to soil type and response spectrum shape, and the other is a well known earthquake events such as El Centro (1940). The time history analysis results of base isolation buildings be induced difference results according to each ground motion records. Therefore detailed guidelines for the ground motion records selection method must be prepared. And the response of isolation story displacement and shear force show good seismic performance in consideration of the proposed earthquake records.

In this study, a seismic risk analysis performed for an applicability assessment of steel fiber in containment structures. Steel fiber can increase tensile properties of concrete structures moreover compressive and shear capacity. But many of researches about steel fiber reinforced concrete structures are now only focused in axial load condition. Also it is very difficult to find an effort for application to containment structures in NPP. Therefore, in this study, seismic fragility assessment for a steel fiber reinforced concrete containment structure. As a result, a seismic fragility capacity improved according to increase of shear and ductile capacity of concrete. In the case of 1.0% of steel fiber volume fraction, seismic capacity increases as 10%. But very limited previous experimental results were used in this study, so various element tests were needed for more accurate investigation.

A new formula is proposed for the fundamental period of high-rise residential concrete shear-wall (SW) buildings. This formula, developed on the basis of dynamics with the recorded fundamental period during the recent earthquakes, can consider the wall stiffness with respect to any direction. To verify the proposed formula, the fundamental period of 10 sample buildings, measured during construction, is compared with the predicted fundamental period. Furthermore, the empirical formulas presented in the building codes KBC 2009 and ASCE 7-10, are also compared with the proposed formula to show a rationality of the proposed formula. The comparison results show that the proposed formula not only can rationally consider the characteristics of each shear-wall, but that it also accurately predicts the fundamental period of the buildings.

Recently, the most of domestic high-rise residential complex buildings are constructed with reinforced concrete structures, which may bring structural problems during construction. This study is aimed to analyze structural safety and lateral load-resisting performance of RC high-rise residential complex building under construction. The tower-typed building with 60 floors is selected as a sample model, and numerical analyses are performed. The structural performances of building structures at construction stages, which are resulted form the analyses of numerical models completed up to 10th, 20th, 30th, 40th, 50th, or 60th floor, are compared to those of the completed building structure. For the comparisons of structural performances, modal shapes and fundamental periods of building structures, lateral load-resisting performances, and structural design performances of structural members are considered. The lateral displacement and story drift ratio are analyzed for lateral load-resisting performances, and comparisons of design ratios at construction and design stages are performed for structural design performances of structural members. The guideline of design loads and structural analysis schemes for checking the safety of RC high-rise building under construction is presented.

Recently, international collaborative research which was organized at Bhabha Atomic Research Centre in India, was conducted to develop for pressure capacity and nonlinear behavior of PHWR 1/4 scale nuclear containment building between experimental test and numerical code. In this paper, a nonlinear finite element analysis was carried out in order to predict ultimate pressure capacity and nonlinear behavior of the 1/4 scale containment building. The 1/4 scale containment building is consisted of basemat, cylinder wall, dome and 4-buttress. For the finite element analysis, commercial program ABAQUS was used. Finite element models including concrete, rebar and tendon have been developed for assessment of ultimate pressure capacity and failure mode for nuclear containment building. From the analysis results, first crack of the concrete, the yielding of the rebar and ultimate capacity pressure occurred at $1.6P_d$(design pressure), $3.36P_d$ and $4.0P_d$, respectively.

This study proposes a new rapid-screening method for more reasonably evaluation the seismic capacities of low-rise RC buildings controlled by both shear and flexure. At the same time, this develops the equation of damage judgement and seismic capacity evaluation for quantitatively evaluating the seismic capacities. Using this evaluating method, it is impossible to estimate the evaluation score and earthquake-damage degree confronted with this and evaluate for efficiently the seismic capacities

In this study, the earthquake damage evaluation of a R/C frame building is carried out based on the method proposed in Part I. Using the proposed method, the earthquake damage of building system based on non-linear required strength spectrum can be effectively evaluated without using the detailed seismic evaluation methods, including non-linear dynamic analyses, capacity spectrum method, etc.

The purpose of this study is to discuss how strength and ductility of each system in low-rise reinforced concrete buildings composed of extremely brittle, shear and flexural failure lateral-load resisting systems have influence on seismic capacities of the overall system, which is based on nonlinear seismic response analyses of single-degree-of-freedom structural systems. In order to simulate the triple lateral-load resisting system, structures are idealized as a parallel combination of two modified origin-oriented hysteretic models and a degrading trilinear hysteretic model that fail primarily in extremely brittle, shear and flexure, respectively. Stiffness properties of three models are varied in terms of story shear coefficients, and structures are subjected to various ground motion components. By analyzing these systems, interaction curves of demand strengths of the triple system for various levels of ductility factors are finally derived for practical purposes. The result indicates that demand strength levels derived can be used as a basic information for seismic evaluation and design criteria of low-rise reinforced concrete buildings having the triple lateral-load resisting system.
