최근 개착식 터널공법으로 널리 사용되고 있는 프리캐스트 라이닝 아치 구조물에 대하여 현장 계측과 수치해석 결과를 비교하여 3힌지 프리캐스트 아치 구조물의 거동을 분석하였다. 현장 계측결과, 천단부에서 가장 큰 연직변위가 측정되었으며 초기에는 상방향으로 변위가 발생하다가 뒤채움 흙이 천단부보다 높아지면서 하방향으로 변위가 발생하였다. 천단부는 최종적으로 원 위치로부터 상방향 19 mm에서 변위가 수렴하였다. 측벽부 최대 수평변위 지점에서의 수평변위는 아치상단까지 뒤채움시 터널 내측으로 발생하여 두 지점간의 수평거리가 줄어들다가, 상부 성토가 진행될수록 수평변위는 감소하여 원래 위치로 이동하였다. 프리캐스트 아치구조물에 대한 변위 분석결과, 지반-구조물의 상호작용을 잘 관찰할 수 있었으며 따라서 기존의 강성구조물과 비교하여 경제적인 설계가 가능할 것으로 기대된다. Duncan 모델을 사용한 유한요소 해석결과를 현장 변위 계측값과 변위 형상 등과 비교하면 유사한 결과를 나타내었다. 수치해석 결과에 의한 측벽부의 수평토압계수는 터널 좌측부는 0.4, 우측부는 0.7에서 수렴하여, 편토압이 발생하는 현장상황 및 현장 변위 계측 결과와도 일치하였다.

콘크리트 내 철근부식상에 있어 염화물이온의 중요성은 임계염화물농도 (CTL)로서 나타내어진다. CTL은 철근을 둘러싼 부동태피막의 파괴를 유지하게끔 하는데 필요한 염화물량으로 정의되며 염화물량이 CTL에 도달할 경우 철근의 부식은 시작된다. CTL의 중요성에도 불구하고 기존의 콘크리트 구조물의 내구수명 예측을 위한 염화물량은 1 $m^3$의 단위체적당 1.2 kg 혹은 시멘트 중량당 0.4%로서 제시되고 있으며 이는 염해부식환경하의 다양한 환경 인자에 따른 한계치 설정에 대한 불확실성을 고려하지 않은 값이라 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 부식개시의 지표로서 결합재의 특성에 따른 부식저항성 및 부식진전에 따른 비율에 대하여 실험연구를 수행하였다. 실험시편으로는 직경 10 mm의 원형 철근을 모르타르 내 몰드에 삽입하여 OPC와 40%OPC+60%GGBS, 70%OPC+30%PFA 및 90%OPC+10%의 SF을 치환한 시편에 대하여 W/C=0.4의 조건으로서 실험을 수행하였다. 각 시편에는 다시 10단계 (0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0% by weight of binder)의 내재염분 농도조건을 부여하여 부식전류를 측정하였다. 시편은 28일 양생을 하였으며 수분손실 및 염분손실을 방지하고자 폴리에틸렌 필름을 이용한 도포양생을 수행하였다. 선형분극저항 측정법에 의한 실험결과로서 각 결합재 치환률에 따른 부식임계치가 결정되었다. 또한 OPC, 60%GGBS, 30%PFA 및 10%SF의 혼입치환률을 적용한 시멘트 모르타르의 CTL 값은 시멘트 중량당 1.6%, 0.45%, 0.8% 및 2.15%의 총염화물 농도로 나타나고 있음을 확인하였다.

RC shear wall sections which have irregular shapes such as T, ㄱ, ㄷ sections are typically used in low-rise buildings in Korea. Pushover analysis of building containing such members costs a lot of computation time and needs professional knowledge since it requires complicated modeling and, sometimes, fails to converge. In this study, a method using an equivalent column element for the shear wall is proposed. The equivalent column element consists of an elastic column, an inelastic rotational spring, and rigid beams. The inelastic properties of the rotational spring represent the nonlinear behavior of the shearwall and are obtained from the section analysis results and moment distribution for the member. The use of an axial force to compensate the difference in the axial deformation between the equivalent column element and the actual shear wall is also proposed. The proposed method is applied for the pushover analysis of a 5- story shear wall-frame building and the results are compared with ones using the fiber elements. The comparison shows that the inelastic behavior at the same drift was comparable. However, the performance points estimated using the pushover curves showed some deviations, which seem to be caused by the differences of estimated yield point and damping ratios.

Seismic-design procedures for walls require that the confinement in the critical (plastic hinge) regions should extend over a length in the compression zone of the cross section at the wall base where concrete strains in the Ultimate Limit State (ULS) exceed the limit of 0.0035. In a performance-based framework, confinement is linked to required curvature ductility so that the drift demand at the performance point of the structure for the design earthquake may be met. However, performance of flexural walls in the recent earthquakes in Chile (2010) and Christchurch (2011) indicates that the actual compression strains in the critical regions of many structural walls were higher than estimated, being responsible for several of the reported failures by toe crushing. In this study, the method of estimating the confined region and magnitude of compression strain demands in slender walls are revisited. The objective is to account for a newly identified kinematic interaction between the normal strains that arise in the compression zone, and the lumped rotations that occur at the other end of the wall base due to penetration of bar tension yielding into the supporting anchorage. Design charts estimating the amount of yield penetration in terms of the resulting lumped rotation at the wall base are used to quantify the increased demands for compression strain in the critical section. The estimated strain increase may exceed by more than 30% the base value estimated from the existing design expressions, which explains the frequently reported occurrence of toe crushing even in well confined slender walls under high drift demands. Example cases are included in the presentation to illustrate the behavioral parametric trends and implications in seismic design of walls.

In this study, natural period formular is presented for a RC shear wall structure with H-, T-, and L-shaped wall sections. The natural period formular proposed by Goel and Chopra and adopted in ASCE 7-10 was modified by using the ratio of the flange and web wall area. The natural periods of structures with H-shaped wall were numerically obtained, the results indicated that the ASCE 7-10 could not consider the natural period variation according to the length of the flange wall, but the proposed formula could do. Especially, ASCE 7-10 estimated much longer periods than eigenvalue analysis, and this implies that conservative seismic design is difficult. The periods by eigenvalue analysis exist between the upper and lower bounds given by the proposed formula, and conservative design is possible by using the proposed lower bound value. In order to verity the effectiveness of the proposed method, actual residential buildings with various types of flange walls are considered. Ambient vibration tests, eigenvalue analyses, and nonlinear dynamic analyses were conducted and the periods were compared with the values by ASCE 7-10 and the proposed formula. The results showed that the proposed formula could estimate more accurately the periods than ASCE 7-10.

The size of spread footings was found to be unnecessarily large from some actual engineering practices constructed in Taiwan, due to the strict design provisions related to footing uplift. According to the earlier design code in Taiwan, the footing uplift involving separation of footing from subsoil was permitted to be only up to one-half of the foundation base area, as the applied moment reaches the value of plastic moment capacity of the column. The reason for this provision was that rocking of spread footings was not a favorable mechanism. However, recent research has indicated that rocking itself may not be detrimental to seismic performance and, in fact, may act as a form of seismic isolation mechanism. In order to clarify the effects of the relative strength between column and foundation on the rocking behavior of a column, six circular reinforced concrete (RC) columns were designed and constructed and a series of rocking experiments were performed. During the tests, columns rested on a rubber pad to allow rocking to take place. Experimental variables included the dimensions of the footings, the strength and ductility capacity of the columns and the intensity of the applied earthquake. Experimental data for the six circular RC columns subjected to quasi-static and pseudo-dynamic loading are presented. Results of each cyclic loading test are compared against the benchmark test with fixed-base conditions. By comparing the experimental responses of the specimens with different design details, a key parameter of rocking behavior related to footing size and column strength is identified. For a properly designed column with the parameter higher than 1, the beneficial effects of rocking in reducing ductility and the strength demand of columns is verified.

최근 건설시장 규모가 확대되고 교통산업이 발전하면서 지하철 및 터널 등과 같은 개착형 Box 혹은 Shield형 터널 구조물 등 지하구조물의 건설이 다양화되고, 그 수요도 점차 급증하고 있는 실정이다. 그러나 주로 지하에 건설되는 콘크리트 구조물은 시공시 신축이음 및 시공 조인트 등과 같은 다양한 형태의 조인트 발생과 구조물의 수축팽창에 따른 거동, 부동침하, 과다하중, 진동발생에 의한 균열로 인하여 누수가 발생되고 있다. 이에 다양한 방수공법 및 재료들이 현장에 적용되고는 있지만 지하철도, 지하철 등과 같은 진동 및 구조물의 거동이 상시적으로 발생되는 환경조건에서는 방수층의 성능이 저하되어 균열, 침식, 들뜸 등으로 물이 확산되어 재누수가 되는 악순환을 겪고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 진동 및 구조물의 거동에 대응 가능한 점착 유연형 복합방수공법을 대상으로 구조물의 거동 대응성 시험을 평가하고, 거동 및 진동이 상시적으로 발생되는 지하철, 터널 등을 대상으로 실제 현장에 적용 후 사례를 통해 구조물 거동에 대응 가능한 방수기술을 검토하였다. 이러한 거동 대응 특성을 검토한 결과 방수재가 기건 및 수중환경에서도 재료의 유연성과 부착성을 유지하여 물의 침투를 방지하고, 거동폭 $5.0mm({\pm}0.5)$ 범위에서도 거동에 대응 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

The goal of energy-based seismic design is to obtain a structural design with a higher energy dissipation capacity than the energy dissipation demands incurred under earthquake motions. Accurate estimation of the story hysteretic energy demand of a multi-story structure is the key to meeting this goal. Based on the assumption of a mode-equivalent single-degree-of-freedom system, the energy equilibrium relationship of a multi-story structure under seismic action is transformed into that of a multi-mode analysis of several single degree-of-freedom systems. A simplified equation for the estimation of the story seismic hysteretic energy demand was then derived according to the story shear force and deformation of multi-story buildings, and the deformation and energy relationships between the mode-equivalent single-degree-of-freedom system and the original structure. Sites were categorized into three types based on soil hardness, namely, hard soil, intermediate hard (soft) soil, and soft soil. For each site type, a 5-story and 10-story reinforced concrete frame structure were designed and employed as calculation examples. Fifty-six earthquake acceleration records were used as horizontal excitations to validate the accuracy of the proposed method. The results verify the following. (1) The distribution of seismic hysteretic energy along the stories demonstrate a degree of regularity. (2) For the low rise buildings, use of only the first mode shape provides reasonably accurate results, whereas, for the medium or high rise buildings, several mode shapes should be included and superposed to achieve high precision. (3) The estimated hysteretic energy distribution of bottom stories tends to be underestimated, which should be modified in actual applications.

Floods have been known to be one of the main causes of bridge collapse. Contrary to earthquakes, flood events tend to occur repeatedly and more frequently in rainfall areas; flood-induced damage and collapse account for a significant portion of disasters in many countries. Nevertheless, in contrast to extensive research on the seismic fragility analysis for civil infrastructure, relatively little attention has been devoted to the flood-related fragility. The present study proposes a novel methodology for deriving flood fragility curves for bridges. Fragility curves are generally derived by means of structural reliability analysis, and structural failure modes are defined as excessive demands of the displacement ductility of a bridge under increased water pressure resulting from debris accumulation and structural deterioration, which are known to be the primary causes of bridge failures during flood events. Since these bridge failure modes need to be analyzed through sophisticated structural analysis, flood fragility curve derivation that would require repeated finite element analyses may take a long time. To calculate the probability of flood-induced failure of bridges efficiently, in the proposed framework, the first order reliability method (FORM) is employed for reducing the required number of finite element analyses. In addition, two software packages specialized for reliability analysis and finite element analysis, FERUM (Finite Element Reliability Using MATLAB) and ABAQUS, are coupled so that they can exchange their inputs and outputs during structural reliability analysis, and a Python-based interface for FERUM and ABAQUS is newly developed to effectively coordinate the fragility analysis. The proposed framework of flood fragility analysis is applied to an actual reinforced concrete bridge in South Korea to demonstrate the detailed procedure of the approach.
