일반적으로 조적조는 석재, 벽돌, 시멘트블록 등의 조적 개체와 모르타르(motar) 등 이종재료로 구성된 적층구조로서, 우리나라뿐만 아니라 전 세계적으로 가장 오래되고 광범위하게 사용되어진 구조재료이다. 그러나 수직하중에 대한 큰 저항능력에 비해 횡력에 매우 취약한 단점을 갖고 있으며, 최근에 발생한 지진피해사례에서도 저층의 조적조 건축물의 피해가 많이 보고되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수평전단력 향상을 위하여 기존 사각형 블록 벽체에서 발생되는 횡방향 통줄눈을 방지하여 횡력에 대한 저항력을 높여줄 수 있는 육각형 형태의 블록을 개발하고, 개발된 블록을 사용한 조적 벽체의 구조실험을 수행하여 거동특성과 전단강도의 증가효과 등을 분석하며, 신축 및 건물 리모델링시에 내진보강용으로 사용할 수 있는 조적조를 제안하고자 하였다. 개발된 중공형 및 솔리드형 블록을 사용하여, 블록의 형상 및 수직 철근 보강량 및 배열위치를 변수로 육각형 블록 벽체의 구조실험을 수행 하였으며, 기존 사각형의 조적조 벽체에 비교하여 상대적으로 연성적인 거동과 전단저항 능력의 향상을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper investigates the applicability of newly developed Cu-Al-Mn shape memory alloy (SMA) bars to retrofitting of historical masonry constructions by performing quasi-static tests of half-scale brick walls subjected to cyclic out-of-plane flexure. Problems associated with conventional steel reinforcing bars lie in pinching, or degradation of stiffness and strength under cyclic loading, and in their inability to restrain residual deformations in structures during and after intense earthquakes. This paper attempts to resolve the problems by applying newly developed Cu-Al-Mn SMA bars, characterized by large recovery strain, low material cost, and high machinability, as partial replacements for steel bars. Three types of brick wall specimens, unreinforced, steel reinforced, and SMA reinforced specimens are prepared. The specimens are subjected to quasi-static cyclic loading up to rotation angle enough to cause yielding of reinforcing bars. Corresponding nonlinear finite element models are developed to simulate the experimental observations. It was found from the experimental and numerical results that both the steel reinforced and SMA reinforced specimens showed substantial increment in strength and ductility as compared to the unreinforced specimen. The steel reinforced specimen showed pinching and significant residual elongation in reinforcing bars while the SMA reinforced specimen did not. Both the experimental and numerical observations demonstrate the superiority of Cu-Al-Mn SMA bars to conventional steel reinforcing bars in retrofitting historical masonry constructions.

The recent re-assessment of the seismic hazard in Europe led for many regions of low to moderate seismicity to an increase in the seismic demand. As a consequence, several modern unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings, constructed with reinforced concrete (RC) slabs that provide an efficient rigid diaphragm action, no longer satisfy the seismic design check and have been retrofitted by adding or replacing URM walls with RC walls. Of late, also several new construction projects have been conceived directly as buildings with both RC and URM walls. Despite the widespread use of such construction technique, very little is known about the seismic behaviour of mixed RC-URM wall structures and codes do not provide adequate support to designers. The aim of the paper is therefore to propose a displacement-based design methodology for the design of mixed RC-URM edifices and the retrofit of URM buildings by replacing or adding selected URM walls with RC ones. The article describes also two tools developed for estimating important quantities relevant for the displacement-based design of structures with both RC and URM walls. The tools are (i) a mechanical model based on the shear-flexure interaction between URM and RC walls and (ii) an elastic model for estimating the contribution of the RC slabs to the overturning moment capacity of the system. In the last part of the article the proposed design method is verified through nonlinear dynamic analyses of several case studies. These results show that the proposed design approach has the ability of controlling the displacement profile of the designed structures, avoiding concentration of deformations in one single storey, a typical feature of URM wall structures.

본 연구는 비보강 조적조 건축물의 정밀한 내진성능 평가를 위한 기초 연구로써, 조적벽체의 형상비 및 개구부 유무에 따른 파괴모드를 고려하여 기존의 전단강도 제안식을 비교 평가하고, 이를 반영한 복원력 특성모델을 제안하였다. 개구부가 없는 조적벽체의 전단강도는 국내 기존 연구에서 제안된 강체회전 및 양단부 압축파괴 강도와 FEMA의 미끄러짐 전단강도 중 작은 값을, 개구부가 있는 벽체의 경우 Pier 벽체만을 고려하여 강도를 예측하는 것이 적절한 것으로 평가되었다. 또한 파괴모드를 고려하여 휨 및 전단거동의 복원력 특성 모델을 제시하였으며, 이를 적용하여 비선형 반복가력 해석을 수행한 결과, 강도 및 이력 거동 면에서 실험과 유사한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

In 2017, an intraplate earthquake of Mw 7.1 occurred 120 km from Mexico City (CDMX). Most collapsed structural buildings stroked by the earthquake were flat slab systems joined to reinforced concrete (RC) columns, unreinforced masonry, confined masonry, and dual systems. This article presents the simulated response of an actual six-story RC frame building with masonry infill walls that did not collapse during the 2017 earthquake. It has a structural system similar to that of many of the collapsed buildings and is located in a high seismic amplification zone. Five 3D numerical models were used in the study to model the seismic response of the building. The building dynamic properties were identified using an ambient vibration test (AVT), enabling validation of the building's finite element models. Several assumptions were made to calibrate the numerical model to the properties identified from the AVT, such as the presence of adjacent buildings, variations in masonry properties, soil-foundation-structure interaction, and the contribution of non-structural elements. The results showed that the infill masonry wall would act as a compression strut and crack along the transverse direction because the shear stresses in the original model (0.85 MPa) exceeded the shear strength (0.38 MPa). In compression, the strut presents lower stresses (3.42 MPa) well below its capacity (6.8 MPa). Although the non-structural elements were not considered to be part of the lateral resistant system, the results showed that these elements could contribute by resisting part of the base shear force, reaching a force of 82 kN.

본 연구의 목적은 풍하중 또는 지진하중 작용시 면외거동을 하는 구조물의 안전성을 확보하기 위하여 비보강 콘크리트 조적조 벽체의 휨인장강도를 평가 분석하는 것이다. 비보강 콘크리트 조적조 벽체의 휨인장강도는 실물 크기의 시험체에 대한 총 327개의 결과를 이용하였으며, 각각의 경우에 대한 휨인장강도의 통계값을 얻었다. 휨인장강도는 콘크리트 조적조 형태, 모르터 형태 및 등급, 인장응력 방향에 따라 13개 그룹으로 분류하였으며, 각각에 대한 평균휨인장강도와 변동계수를 구하였다. 휨인장강도를 구하기 위하여 벽체에 적용된 하중은 균일분포하중 및 집중하중 형태이며, 벽체가 균열될 때의 최대하중을 측정하여 휨응력공식으로 극한휨인장강도가 계산되었다. 평균휨인장강도는 콘크리트 조적조의 형태, 모르터의 형태 및 등급 등에 따라 1,564 kPa~363 kPa 범위로 분포한다. 이에 비하여 국내의 콘크리트블록 조적조 구조기준에서 허용휨인장응력은 모르터 등급 및 인장응력방향에 따라 294 kPa~74 kPa로 낮은 값을 고시하고 있다. 본 연구에서 평가 분석한 휨인장강도값은 국내 구조기준에서 고시한 값 보다 약 5배 정도 큰 값이므로 국내의 기준값은 상향 조정되어야할 것이다. 본 연 구에서 도출한 휨인장강도값을 토대로 국내에서 비보강 콘크리트 조적조 구조물에 적용할 수 있는 허용기준치를 모르터 등급 및 인장응력방향에 따라 추후 세부적으로 설정할 수 있을 것이다.

The in-situ pushover test differs from the shake-table test because it is performed outdoors and thus its size is not restricted by space, which allows us to test a full-size building. However, to build a new full-size building for the test is not economical, consequently scholars around the world usually make scale structures or full-scale component units to be tested in the laboratory. However, if in-situ pushover tests can be performed on full-size structures, then the seismic behaviors of buildings during earthquakes can be grasped. In view of this, this study conducts two in-situ pushover tests of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings. One is a masonry-infilled RC building with openings (the openings ratio of masonry infill wall is between 24% and 51%) and the other is an RC building without masonry infill. These two in-situ pushover tests adopt obsolescent RC buildings, which will be demolished, to conduct experiment and successfully obtain seismic capacity curves of the buildings. The test results are available for the development or verification of a seismic evaluation model. This paper uses ASCE 41-17 as the main evaluation model and is accompanied by a simplified pushover analysis, which can predict the seismic capacity curves of low-rise buildings in Taiwan. The predicted maximum base shear values for masonry-infilled RC buildings with openings and for RC buildings without masonry infill are, respectively, 69.69% and 87.33% of the test values. The predicted initial stiffness values are 41.04% and 100.49% of the test values, respectively. It can be seen that the ASCE 41-17 evaluation model is reasonable for the RC building without masonry infill walls. In contrast, the analysis result for the masonry infilled RC building with openings is more conservative than the test value because the ASCE 41-17 evaluation model is limited to masonry infill walls with an openings ratio not exceeding 40%. This study suggests using ASCE 41-17's unreinforced masonry wall evaluation model to simulate a masonry infill wall with an openings ratio greater than 40%. After correction, the predicted maximum base shear values of the masonry infilled RC building with openings is 82.60% of the test values and the predicted initial stiffness value is 67.13% of the test value. Therefore, the proposed method in this study can predict the seismic behavior of a masonry infilled RC frame with large openings.

EDCC (Eco-Friendly Ductile Cementitious Composites) is a recently created class of engineered cementitious composites that exhibit extremely high ductility and elastoplastic behavior under pure tension. EDCC contains reduced amounts of cement and very large volumes of fly ash. Due to these properties, EDCC has become one of the solutions to use in seismic upgrading. This paper discloses previous studies and research that discussed the seismic upgrading of unreinforced, non-grouted, unconfined, and non-load bearing masonry walls which are called URM infill walls using the EDCC technique. URM infill wall is one of the weak links in the building structure to withstand the earthquake waves, as the brittle behavior of the URM infill walls behaves poorly during seismic events. The purpose of this study is to fill a knowledge gap about the theoretical and experimental ways to use the EDCC in URM infill walls. The findings reflect the ability of the EDCC to change the behavior from brittle to ductile to a certain percentage behavior, increasing the overall drift before collapse as it increases the energy dissipation, and resists significant shaking under extensive levels with various types and intensities.

This study aims to present nonlinear time history analysis results of double leaf cavity wall (DLCW) reinforced concrete structure exposed to shake table tests. Simulation of the model was done by a Finite Element (FE) program. Shake table experiment was performed at the National Civil Engineering Laboratory in Lisbon, Portugal. The results of the experiment were compared with numeric DLCW model and numeric model of reinforced concrete structure with unreinforced masonry wall (URM). Both DLCW and URM models have two bays and two stories. Dimensions of the tested structure and finite element models are 1:1.5 scaled according to Cauchy Froude similitude law. The URM model has no experimental results but the purpose is to compare their performance level with the DLCW model. Results of the analysis were compared with experimental response and were evaluated according to ASCE/SEI 41-06 code.

기존 비보강 조적벽체의 내진 성능과 에너지 효율을 동시에 보강하기 위한 TCP 보강 공법을 개발하였다. TCP는 경량 모르타르 내 격자형 탄소섬유 시트와 모세관 튜브를 매립하여 일체로 타설한 패널로 조적벽체에 부착하여 탄소섬유 시트에 의한 내진보강과 모세관 튜브에 온수를 공급함으로써난방 또는 단열 등의 에너지 보강을 동시에 달성할수 있는 보강 공법이다. 본 연구에서는 TCP의 내진 보강 효과를 파악하기 위하여 TCP 보강 유무에 따른 조적 벽체를 대상으로 정적가력실험을 실시하였다. 실험 결과, TCP 보강에 의해 최대 강도 및 변위가 약 1.4배증가하였으며, 초기 강성과 에너지 흡수능력에 효과가 있음을 보였다. 또한, 손상에 따른 조적 벽체의 변형이 제어됨에 따라 취성 파괴를 예방할수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
