현행 약진지역의 내진설계기준은 주로 강진지역에서의 연구결과에 근거하고 있다. 하지만, 약진지역의 경우 지진하중보다는 중력하중이나 풍하중에 의해 구조설계가 지배되므로 구조물의 초과강도가 강진지역의 경우보다 증가하게 된다. 따라서 약진지역에 적합한 내진설계기준을 마련하기 위해서는 강진지역에 적용되는 반응수정계수를 약진지역에 그대로 적용할 수 있는지에 대한 검증이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 건축구조물에 대한 소성해석을 통해 그 연성도와 초과강도를 산정하고 이에 근거하여 현행 반응수정계수의 적절성 여부를 검토하였다. 강진, 중진, 약진지역 등에서의 초과강도와 연성요구도를 비교하기 위하여 UBC-97에 근거하여 설계된 예제구조물을 선정하여 해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과에 의하면 약진지역의 초과강도가 강진지역보다 크기 때문에 동일한 반응수정계수에 대한 약진지역의 연성요구도는 강진지역에서보다 적게 된다. 따라서 동일한 반응수정계수를 이용하여 설계된 약진지역 구조물의 경우 접합부에서의 소성회전각 요구량을 강진지역의 경우에 비하여 상대적으로 저감시킬 수 있을 것이다.

New generation of tall and complex buildings systems are now introduced that are reflective of the latest development in materials, design, sustainability, construction, and IT technologies. While the complexity in design is being overcome by the availability and advances in structural analysis tools and readily advanced software, the design of these buildings are still reliant on minimum code requirements that yet to be validated in full scale. The involvement of the author in the design and construction planning of Burj Khalifa since its inception until its completion prompted the author to conceptually develop an extensive survey and real-time structural health monitoring program to validate all the fundamental assumptions mad for the design and construction planning of the tower. The Burj Khalifa Project is the tallest structure ever built by man; the tower is 828 meters tall and comprises of 162 floors above grade and 3 basement levels. Early integration of aerodynamic shaping and wind engineering played a major role in the architectural massing and design of this multi-use tower, where mitigating and taming the dynamic wind effects was one of the most important design criteria established at the onset of the project design. Understanding the structural and foundation system behaviors of the tower are the key fundamental drivers for the development and execution of a state-of-the-art survey and structural health monitoring (SHM) programs. Therefore, the focus of this paper is to discuss the execution of the survey and real-time structural health monitoring programs to confirm the structural behavioral response of the tower during construction stage and during its service life; the monitoring programs included 1) monitoring the tower's foundation system, 2) monitoring the foundation settlement, 3) measuring the strains of the tower vertical elements, 4) measuring the wall and column vertical shortening due to elastic, shrinkage and creep effects, 5) measuring the lateral displacement of the tower under its own gravity loads (including asymmetrical effects) resulting from immediate elastic and long term creep effects, 6) measuring the building lateral movements and dynamic characteristic in real time during construction, 7) measuring the building displacements, accelerations, dynamic characteristics, and structural behavior in real time under building permanent conditions, 8) and monitoring the Pinnacle dynamic behavior and fatigue characteristics. This extensive SHM program has resulted in extensive insight into the structural response of the tower, allowed control the construction process, allowed for the evaluation of the structural response in effective and immediate manner and it allowed for immediate correlation between the measured and the predicted behavior. The survey and SHM programs developed for Burj Khalifa will with no doubt pioneer the use of new survey techniques and the execution of new SHM program concepts as part of the fundamental design of building structures. Moreover, this survey and SHM programs will be benchmarked as a model for the development of future generation of SHM programs for all critical and essential facilities, however, but with much improved devices and technologies, which are now being considered by the author for another tall and complex building development, that is presently under construction.

본 논문에서는 고인성 시멘트 복합체(ECC)가 적용된 날개벽 요소의 면 접합방식에 따른 평가를 실시하였다. 또한 비내진상세를 갖는 RC 골조에 ECC날개벽 요소 보강하여 보강 유무에 따른 내진성능평가를 실시하였다. 면 접합 방법에 따른 거동 특성을 비교하기 위하여 2면 접합은 상 하부 보에 3면 접합은 상 하부 보 및 기둥에 접합하여 실험을 실시 하였다. 또한 비내진상세를 갖는 기존 구조체와의 일체로 거동하는 합성거동을 위해 3면 접합 방식으로 ECC날개벽 요소 보강을 실시하였다. ECC날개벽 요소 실험과 골조 실험은 점증되는 층간변위에 따라 2회씩 반복가력하여 실험을 진행하였다. 실험 결과 ECC 날개벽 요소 실험체의 경우 3면 접합이 2면 접합보다 우수한 내진성능 나타내었다. 각각의 실험체는 우수한 재료 특성으로 인하여 미세한 다수의 균열이 ECC날개벽 요소 전면에 폭넓게 분포하였다. 또한 보통 콘크리트와 달리 최대강도 이후 연성적인 거동을 나타내었으며, 이에 우수한 에너지소산능력을 나타내었다. ECC날개벽 요소를 보강한 실험체와 기존 골조에서는 ECC날개벽 요소 보강에 따른 최대강도 이후 연성적인 거동을 나타내었다. 이에 따라 에너지소산능력이 증가하였으며, 강성저하 또한 완만한 곡선을 나타내며 기존 골조보다 우수한 내진특성을 나타내었다. 이에 ECC 날개벽 요소의 보강이 비내진상세를 갖는 구조체에 우수한 내진 특성을 부여하는 판단된다.

Sediment load deposited in sewers and manholes reduces not only the capacity of pipes but also the efficiency of the whole sewer system. This causes the inundations of the low places and overflows at manholes, Moreover, sulfides and bad odor can occur due to deposited sediment with organic loads in manholes. Movements of sediment load in manholes are complicated depending on manhole size, location, inside structure, sediment load type, and time. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the movements of sediment load in manholes by experiments. In this study, experiments were implemented by a square manhole with straight path to measure deposited sedimentation quantity. The experimental apparatus was consisted of a high water tank, an upstream tank, test pipes, a sediment supplier, a manhole, and a downstream tank to measure the experimental discharge. The quantity of deposited sediment load was measured by different conditions, such as the inflow condition of sediment(continuous and certain period), the amount of inflow sediment, discharge, and the type of sediment. Jumoonjin sand(S=2.63, D50=0.55mm), general sand(GS, S=2.65, D50=1.83mm) and anthracite (S=1.45, D50=0.80mm) were employed for the experiment. The velocities in inflow pipe were 0.45 m/s, 0.67 m/s, and 0.9 m/s. Sediment load movement and sedimentation quantity in manhole were influenced by many factors such as velocity, shear stress, viscosity, amount of sediment, sediment size, and specific gravity. Suggested regression equations can estimated the quantity of deposited sediment in the straight path square manholes. The connoted equations that were evaluated through the experimental study have velocity range from 0.45 to 0.9m/sec. The study results illustrates that appropriation of design velocity ragne between 1.0 and 2.0m/sec could implement to maintain and manage manholes.

This paper presents a case study about the damages on the structural elements of a cast in place reinforced concrete (RC) building after a big fire which was able to be controlled after six hours. The fire broke off at the $2^{nd}$ basement floor of the building, which has five basements, one ground, and two normal floors. As a result of intensely stocked ignitable materials, it spread out to the all of the upstairs. In visual inspection, most of the typical fire damages were observed (such as spalling, net-like cracks, crumbled plasters, bared or visible reinforcement). Also, failures of the $2^{nd}$ basement columns were encountered. It has been concluded that the severity failures of the columns at the $2^{nd}$ basement caused utterly deformation of the building, which is responsible for the massive damages on the beam-column connections. All of the observed damages were categorized related to the types and presented separated regarding the floors. Besides to the visual inspection, the numerical analysis was run to verify the observed damaged on the building for columns, beams, and the connection regions. It is concluded from the study that several parameters such as duration of the fire, level of the temperature influence on the damages to the RC building. Also, it is highlighted by the study that if the damaged building is considered on the overall structural system, it is not able to satisfy the minimum service requirements neither gravity loads nor earthquake conditions.

부유 이송식 해상풍력 기초를 목표 지점에 설치하기 위해서는 내부의 중공부에 해수를 주입하여 착저 시키게 되는데, 그 과정에서 중량 및 무게 중심과 부력중심이 변하게 되어 부유식 기초가 불안정해 질 수 있다. 부유 이송식 기초의 동적안정성 해석은 기초 외부의 수력학적 하중과 6-자유도 운동을 하게 되는 기초에 작용하는 파도와 조류 하중 및 설치 과정에서 기초 내부의 중공부로 투입되는 해수의 무게중심 이동까지 동시에 고려해야 하는 복잡한 문제이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 3차원 비정상 CFD 기법과 다물체 동역학 기법을 연성 (coupling)한 정밀 해석기법을 적용하여 부유 이송식 기초 내부 물의 슬로싱 운동까지 고려한 동적안정성 해석을 수행하고 특성을 분석하였다.

비정형 고층건물의 경우 편심중력하중에 의해 횡변위가 발생한다. 일반해석은 완공시점에 건물 조건을 기준으로 모든 하중을 고려하기 때문에, 시공중 부재 수직도 확보를 통해 각 단계별 보정량을 반영할 수 없어 골조자중에 의한 횡변위를 과대평가한다. 시공단계해석은 통상적인 시공과정에서 각 층마다 바닥평활도 및 기둥/벽체 수직도를 확보하는 것을 고려하여 타설이전에 발생하는 변형각을 보정하기 때문에 일반해석의 한계를 보완할 수 있다. 또한 계측을 통해 타설시점의 좌표를 설계좌표점으로 시공할 경우 각 시공단계에서 추가적인 횡변위보정(원점보정)이 가능하다. 횡변위는 고층부로 갈수록 급격히 증가하므로, 이러한 사전해석을 통해 합리적인 보정계획 수립이 가능하며, 이러한 보정에도 횡변위 관리기준를 초과하는 경우는 선보정 계획을 수립하여야 한다. 이때 사전해석의 불확실성 측면을 고려하여 선보정량을 결정하고, 실제 건물거동의 모니터링을 통해 선보정계획을 지속적으로 수정하여 건물수직도를 확보할 필요가 있다.

A method for dynamic analysis and design calculation of a Powertrain Mounting System(PMS) including Hydraulic Engine Mounts(HEM) is developed with the aim of controlling powertrain motion and reducing low-frequency vibration in pitch and bounce modes. Here the pitch mode of the powertrain is defined as the mode rotating around the crankshaft of an engine for a transversely mounted powertrain. The powertrain is modeled as a rigid body connected to rigid ground by rubber mounts and/or HEMs. A mount is simplified as a three-dimensional spring with damping elements in its Local Coordinate System(LCS). The relation between force and displacement of each mount in its LCS is usually nonlinear and is simplified as piecewise linear in five ranges in this paper. An equation for estimating displacements of the powertrain center of gravity(C.G.) under static or quasi-static load is developed using Newton's second law, and an iterative algorithm is presented to calculate the displacements. Also an equation for analyzing the dynamic response of the powertrain under ground and engine shake excitations is derived using Newton's second law. Formulae for calculating reaction forces and displacements at each mount are presented. A generic PMS with four rubber mounts or two rubber mounts and two HEMs are used to validate the dynamic analysis and design calculation methods. Calculated displacements of the powertrain C.G. under static or quasi-static loads show that a powertrain motion can meet the displacement limits by properly selecting the stiffness and coordinates of the tuning points of each mount in its LCS using the calculation methods developed in this paper. Simulation results of the dynamic responses of a powertrain C.G. and the reaction forces at mounts demonstrate that resonance peaks can be reduced effectively with HEMs designed on the basis of the proposed methods.

Damages to buildings affected by a near-fault strong ground motion are largely attributed to the vertical component of the earthquake resulting in column failures, which could lead to disproportionate building catastrophic collapse in a progressive fashion. Recently, considerable interests are awakening to study effects of earthquake vertical components on structural responses. In this study, detailed modeling and time-history analyses of a 12-story code-conforming reinforced concrete moment frame building carrying the gravity loads, and exposed to once only the horizontal component of, and second time simultaneously the horizontal and vertical components of an ensemble of far-field and near-field earthquakes are conducted. Structural responses inclusive of tension, compression and its fluctuations in columns, the ratio of shear demand to capacity in columns and peak mid-span moment demand in beams are compared with and without the presence of the vertical component of earthquake records. The influences of the existence of earthquake vertical component in both exterior and interior spans are separately studied. Thereafter, the correlation between the increase of demands induced by the vertical component of the earthquake and the ratio of a set of earthquake record characteristic parameters is investigated. It is shown that uplift initiation and the magnitude of tensile forces developed in corner columns are relatively more critical. Presence of vertical component of earthquake leads to a drop in minimum compressive force and initiation of tension in columns. The magnitude of this reduction in the most critical case is recorded on average 84% under near-fault ground motions. Besides, the presence of earthquake vertical components increases the shear capacity required in columns, which is at most 31%. In the best case, a direct correlation of 95% between the increase of the maximum compressive force and the ratio of vertical to horizontal 'effective peak acceleration (EPA)' is observed.
