The purpose of this study is to compare the response of the high-strength concrete beam-column-slab subassembly with the response of a normal-strength concrete specimens. Four assemblies were designed 2/3 scale beam-column-slab joint(fc'=240kg/cm2 fc'=700kg/cm2) and tested to investigate seismic behaviour. From the test results 1) flexral cracks emerge to inside of bean deeply for high strength concrete member 2) the high-strength specimens represented stable hysteretic behaviour for the displacement ductility 5.5 but degradation in stiffness and strength and unstable hysteretic behaviors were observed owing to the brittleness of high-strength concrete beyond its range.

The use of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites in strengthening reinforced concrete beam-column subassemblies has been scrutinised both experimentally and numerically in recent years. While a multitude of numerical models are available, and many match the experimental results reasonably well, there are not many studies that have looked at the efficiency of different finite elements in a comparative way in order to clearly identify the best practice when it comes to modelling FRP for strengthening. The present study aims at investigating this within the context of FRP retrofitted reinforced concrete beam-column subassemblies. Two programs are used side by side; ANSYS and VecTor2. Results of the finite element modeling using these two programs are compared with a recent experimental study. Different failure and yield criteria along with different element types are implemented and a useful technique, which can reduce the number of elements considerably, is successfully employed for modeling planar structures subjected to in-plane loading in ANSYS. Comparison of the results shows that there is good agreement between ANSYS and VecTor2 results in monotonic loading. However, unlike VecTor2 program, implicit version of ANSYS program is not able to properly model the cyclic behavior of the modeled subassemblies. The paper will be useful to those who wish to study FRP strengthening applications numerically as it provides an insight into the choice of the elements and the methods of modeling to achieve desired accuracy and numerical stability, a matter not so clearly explored in the past in any of the published literature.

An experimental study was conducted to evaluate the effects of loading sequence and lateral bracing on the behavior of reduced beam section (RBS) steel moment frame connections. Four full-scale moment connections were cyclically tested-two with a standard loading history and the other two with a near-fault loading history. All specimens reached at least 0.03 radian of plastic rotation without brittle fracture of the beam flange groove welds. Two specimens tested with the nearfault loading protocol reached at least 0.05 radian of plastic rotation, and both experienced smaller buckling amplitudes at comparable drift levels. Energy dissipation capacities were insensitive to the types of loading protocol used. Adding a lateral bracing near the RBS region produced a higher plastic rotation; the strength degradation and buckling amplitude were reduced. A non-linear finite element analysis of a one-and-a-half-bay beam-column subassembly was also conducted to study the system restraint effect. The study showed that the axial restraint of the beam could significantly reduce the strength degradation and buckling amplitude at higher deformation levels.

This study investigates a new seismic retrofit system that utilizes rotational friction dampers and axial springs. The retrofit system involves a steel frame with rotational friction dampers (RFD) at beam-column joints and linear springs at the corners, providing energy dissipation and self-centering capabilities to existing structures. The axial spring acts as a self-centering mechanism that eliminates residual deformations, while the friction damper mitigates seismic damage. To evaluate the seismic performance of the proposed retrofit system, a series of cyclic loading tests were carried out on a steel beam-column subassembly equipped with the proposed devices. An analytical model was then developed to validate the experimental results. A performance point ratio (PPR) was presented to optimize the design parameters of the retrofit system, and a performance-based seismic design strategy was developed based on the PPR. The retrofit system's effectiveness and the presented performance-based design approach were evaluated through case study models, and the analysis results demonstrated that the developed retrofit system and the performance-based design procedure were effective in retrofitting structures for multi-level design objectives.

본 연구에서는 원주형 절취 독본(dogbonc) 내진 접합부 도입에 따른 철골모멘트골조의 횡강성 감소 정도를 용이하게 산정할 수 있는 실용적 해석기법을 제안하였다. 된 연구의 방안은 원래의 원주형 절취 형상의 독본에서 발생하는 신장량과 동일한 크기의 신장량이 유발되도록 등가의 균등한 유효폭을 갖는 독본 형상으로 치환하는 것에 근거하고 있다. 등가 유효폭을 도입하는 목적은 공액보법을 적용하여 보의 휨변형에 의한 골조의 횡변위 성분을 유도할 때 수행되는 전분을 해석적으로 하기 위함이다. 이러한 접근법의 타당성을 먼저 검증된 유한요소해석모델에 의해 확인한 후, 기둥, 패널존 그리고 보의 변형에서 기인하는 골조의 횡변위 성분을 독본의 존재를 고려하여 해석적으로 유도하였다. 이 유도결과를 이용한 사례분석에 의할 때, 독본의 도입에 따른 횡변위 증가율은 2%∼3%(횡강성 감소율로는 1%∼2%) 정도로서 실무적으로 무시할 수 있는 크기로 나타났다.

국내 비내진 설계된 RC 골조 외부접합부의 횡저항 능력특성을 연구하기 위하여, 1988년 이후의 건물을 대상으로 실물 크기의 70%의 T형 보-기둥 실험체 4개를 제작하여 보에 횡력을 가력하여 실험을 수행하였다. 작용한 횡력은 총 9단계로 변위를 조절하여 최대 횡변위비 3.5%까지 가력하였고, 각 변위 단계마다 3싸이클의 반복하중을 가력하였다. 실제의 상황과 유사하게 하기 위하여 실험동안 기둥에 압축력을 지속적으로 작용하였다. 실험 결과, 부재가 휨 공칭강도에 도달하여야 하는 내력에 비하여 실험 결과는 85%이하로 나타났고 층간변위비 0.85% 미만에서 모든 실험체의 접합부에서 전단균열이 발생하여 국내 외부접합부가 취약함을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 접합부 균열발생시 주응력-층간변위비는 Priestly의 제안식과 유사하게 나타났다.
