This paper presents a three-dimensional finite element method based structural analysis model for structural analysis of reinforced concrete high-rise buildings during construction. The model considered the time-dependency of the structural configuration and material properties as well as the effect of the construction rate and shoring stiffness. Uniaxial compression tests of young concrete within 28 days of age were conducted to establish the time-dependent compressive stress-strain relationship of concrete, which was then used as input parameters to the structural analysis model. In-situ tests of a RC high-rise building were conducted, the results of which were used for model verification. Good agreement between the test results and model predictions was achieved. At the end, a parametric study was conducted using the verified model. The results indicated that the floor position and construction rate had significant effect on the shore load, whereas the influence of the shore removal timing and shore stiffness have much smaller. It was also found that the floors are more prone to cracking during construction than is ultimate bending failure.

Recently, the use of high-strength concrete is increasing due to the trend of constructing high-rise and long span structures. The benefit of using the high-strength concrete is that it increases the durability and strength while it reduces the cross-sectional area of the bridge deck slabs. Moreover, it offers more safety as these bridge deck slabs applying high-strength requires strict structural performance verification. In this study, the fatigue performance of the bridge deck slabs applying 80 MPa high-strength concrete was verified through various experiments. The experimental results showed that the specimens satisfy the conditions of flexural strength, punching shear strength, deflection and cracking. In conclusion, the bridge deck slabs designed by 80 MPa high-strength concrete are enough safe despite of its low thickness.

In recent years, BIM has been applied to many building projects. However, IFC, which is the core technology of data exchange in BIM, has not been used widely. In particular, IFC has almost never been used to represent rebars in RC structures. This is because the lack of understanding and utilization strategy for data model of IFC on rebars. The purpose of this study is to store and manage the data on rebars using IFC at the schematic design stage. For this, we investigated the data to represent rebars for RC members, such as beam, column, wall, and slab at the schematic design stage. And, we analyzed the data model of IFC on rebars at the schematic design stage. Based on these investigation and analysis on data, we proposed the strategy for utilization of the data model of IFC on rebars. Finally, for verification, we generated a sample IFC file to represent the rebars of a simple RC structure according to the proposed strategy and imported the sample IFC file into the software, which we developed for this study. Based on the results of the import, we concluded that the data on rebars can be stored and managed using the proposed strategy for utilization of the data model of IFC on rebars.

A relatively simple multiple-vertical-line-element macro model has been incorporated into a standard computer code DRAIN-2D. It was used in blind predictions of seismic response of cantilever RC walls subjected to a series of consequent earthquakes on a shaking table. The model was able to predict predominantly flexural response with relative success. It was able to predict the stiffness and the strength of the pre-cracked specimen and time-history response of the highly nonlinear wall as well as to simulate the shift of the neutral axis and corresponding varying axial force in the cantilever wall. However, failing to identify the rupture of some brittle reinforcement in the third test, the model was not able to predict post-critical, near collapse behaviour during the subsequent response to two stronger earthquakes. The analysed macro model seems to be appropriate for global analyses of complex building structures with RC structural walls subjected to moderate/strong earthquakes. However, it cannot, by definition, be used in refined research analyses monitoring local behaviour in the post critical region.

Two destructive earthquakes occurred on October 23 and November 9, 2011 in Van province of Turkey. The damage in residential units shows significant deviation from the expectation of decreasing damage with increasing distance to epicenter. The most damaged settlement Ercis has the same distance to the epicenter with Muradiye, where no damage occurred while relatively less damage observed in Van having half distance. These three cities seem to have resembling soil conditions. If the damages are evaluated: joint failures and insufficient lap splice lengths are observed to be the main causes of the total collapses in RC buildings. Additionally, low concrete strength, reinforcement detailing mistakes, soft story, heavy overhang, pounding and short columns are among other damage reasons. Examples of damages due to non-structural elements are also given. Remarkable points about seismic damages are: collapsed buildings with shear-walls, heavily damaged buildings despite adequate concrete strength due to detailing mistakes, undamaged two-story adobe buildings close to totally collapsed RC ones and undamaged structural system in buildings with heavily damaged non-structural elements. On the contrary of the common belief that buildings with shear-walls are immune to total collapse among civil engineers, collapse of Gedikbulak primary school is a noteworthy example.

Fragility curves are useful tools to estimate the damage probability of buildings owing to seismic actions. The purpose of this study is to investigate seismic vulnerability of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings, according to the 2007 and 2018 Turkish Seismic Codes, using fragility curves. For the numerical analyses, typical five- and seven-storey RC buildings were selected and incremental dynamic analyses (IDA) were performed. To complete the IDAs, eleven earthquake acceleration records multiplied by various scaling factors from 0.2g to 0.8g were used. To predict nonlinearity, a distributed hinge model that involves material and geometric nonlinearity of the structural members was used. Damages to confined concrete and reinforcement bar of structural members were obtained by considering the unit deformation demands of the 2007 Turkish Seismic Code (TSC-2007) and the 2018 Turkey Building Earthquake Code (TBEC-2018). Vulnerability evaluation of these buildings was performed using fragility curves based on the results of incremental dynamic analyses. Fragility curves were generated in terms of damage levels occurring in confined concrete and reinforcement bar of structural members with a lognormal distribution assumption. The fragility curves show that the probability of damage occurring is more according to TBEC-2018 than according to TSC-2007 for selected buildings.

In the present study, exterior beam-column sub-assemblage from a regular reinforced concrete (RC) building has been considered. Two different types of beam-column sub-assemblages from existing RC building have been considered, i.e., gravity load designed ('GLD'), and seismically designed but without any ductile detailing ('NonDuctile'). Hence, both the cases represent the under-designed structure at different time frame span before the introduction of ductile detailing. For designing 'NonDuctile' structure, Eurocode and Indian Standard were considered. Non-linear finite element (FE) program has been employed for analysing the sub-assemblages under cyclic loading. FE models were developed using quadratic concrete brick elements with embedded truss elements to represent reinforcements. It has been found that the results obtained from the numerical analysis are well corroborated with that of experimental results. Using the validated numerical models, it was proposed to correlate the energy dissipation from numerical analysis to that from experimental analysis. Numerical models would be helpful in practice to evaluate the seismic performance of the critical sub-assemblages prior to design decisions. Further, using the numerical studies, performance of the sub-assemblages with variation of axial load ratios (ratio is defined by applied axial load divided by axial strength) has been studied since many researchers have brought out inconsistent observations on role of axial load in changing strength and energy dissipation under cyclic load.

본 논문은 RC(Reinforced Concrete), SC(Steel-Plate Concrete) 격납구조에 대한 대형 민항기 충돌에 관한 응답해석을 Hydrocode인 Autodyn-3D를 통해 수행하였다. 이전에 연구된 대부분의 항공기 충돌 해석에서의 충격 하중은 국부적인 부분(동체면적의 약 2배)에 대해 Riera의 충격하중함수를 적용하는 방법을 이용하여왔다. 하지만, 본 논문에서는 실제 Boeing 767과 유사한 모델을 구현하여 대상 구조체에 직접 충돌 시켜 나타나는 현상을 비교 분석 하였으며, 항공기 모델은 강성벽(Rigid Target)에 대해 항공기를 충돌 시켰을 시 발생되는 충돌하중이력곡선과, Riera 함수를 이용한 충돌하중이력곡선과의 비교를 통하여 검증하였다. 항공기 충돌 시, SC 격납구조에 대한 충돌저항능력 및 응답, 안전성 효과를 평가 하기 위해 무근 콘크리트(Plain Concrete:PC), 철근 콘크리트(Reinforced Concrete:RC), 철근 콘크리트와 완전 부착된 내부 Liner Plate(CLP:Containment Liner Plate), 그리고 SC 격납구조에 대한 해석을 수행하였다. 따라서 항공기 충돌과 같은 비정상충격하중이 RC구조와 SC구조에 가해질 경우에 대한 거동 예측이 가능하며, 보수적인 안전성이 요구되는 RC 원전 격납건물에 SC구조를 적용하면 상대적인 안전성 증대 효과를 기대 할 수 있을 것으로 보여진다.

최근 우리나라에서는 건축적 또는 사회적 요구로 비정형 고층 RC건물이 급증하고 있으나, 이와 같은 건물을 내진설계하는데 요구되는 지진의 방향성과 직교성을 적응하기 위한 구체적인 방법이 제시되어 있지 않아 설계자들이 설계하는데 어려움이 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 우리나라에서 실제 건설된 비정형고층 RC건물을 스펙트럼해석법과 시간이력해석법에 따라 SAP2000을 사용하여 동적해석을 수행한 후, 하부골조 기둥의 설계력을 비교함으로써 주축의 설정과 지진의 방향성을 고려하는 것이 설계력에 미치는 영향, 그리고 방향성과 직교성을 모두 만족시킬 수 있는 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 연구결과 내린 결론은 다음과 같다. 1) 지진에 직각방향 전단력이 발생하지 않는 방향을 주축으로 정의하여 설계부재력을 구하면, 동적밑면전단력 보정계수가 감소하기 때문에 X, Y축을 주축으로 정하여 설계부재력 구하였을 때보다 설계부재력이 $15\%$정도 작은 값을 보여주었다. 2) 100/30법에 따라 방향성을 고려하여 구한 설계부재력은 2방향 시간이력해석결과로부터 구한 최대설계부재력보다 큰 값을 보여주어 100/30법에 따라 직교성을 고려하는 방법은 타당한 것으로 나타났으나, 시간이력해석결과에서 부재력을 나타내는 벡터$(P,\;M_y,\;and\;M_z)$ 많은 부분이 100/30법에 따라 예측한 설계부재력의 영역을 벗어났다.
