현재 보다 다양한 형태의 건축물 설계를 가능하게 하는 대표적인 구조 시스템으로 다이아그리드 시스템이 있다. 다이아그리드 시스템은 접합부 설계 및 시공의 어려움과 가새 부재 좌굴에 의해 내진성능이 저하된다는 단점이 있으며, 이를 보안하기 위해 비좌굴 가새를 이용한 다이아그리드 시스템을 제안하였다. 본 연구에서는 다이아그리드 시스템과 다이아그리드 BRB 시스템의 골조 실험을 통해 초기 강성, 연성 능력과 에너지 소산능력을 평가였다. 반복가력실험 결과 Diagrid BRB의 초기 강성과 연성능력이 더 크게 나타났으며, BRB 항복 이후에도 지속적인 에너지 흡수가 이루어짐을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 중 약진 지역에서 중력 저항시스템인 중간 모멘트골조로 설계된 3층, 6층 RE 플랫플레이트 구조물을 KBC 2005를 만족하도록 RC구조물에 강판과 가새/ BRB 등의 보강방법을 적용하여 보강하고, 내진성능을 평가하여 보강 효과를 검증하였다. 비탄성 정적해석과 동적해석 결과에 따르면 내진 보강된 구조물은 강도와 강성이 크게 향상된 것으로 나타났다 특히 기둥을 철판으로 보강한 경우 슬래브를 철판으로 보강하여 조기 뚫림 전단파괴를 방지함으로써 강도를 크게 향상할 수 있다. BRB로 보강된 구조물은 Brace로 보강된 구조물보다 다소 연성적 거동을 보였으며, 그 효과는 3층 모델에서 현저하게 나타났다.

The seismic performance of steel frames equipped with a particular type of bending dissipative braces (BDBs) having U elements, which has recently been introduced and tested by the authors, is investigated. For this purpose, two structural systems, i.e., simple and dual steel building frames, both with diagonal BDBs and different number of stories, are considered. After providing a design method of this new BDB, the detailed structural models are developed in the OpenSees platform to perform nonlinear dynamic analyses. Seismic performance factors like ductility, overstrength, response modification and deflection amplification factors are calculated using incremental dynamic analysis (IDA). In addition, to assess the damage probability of the structural models, their seismic fragilities are developed. The results show high energy dissipation capacity of both structural systems while the number of U elements needed for the bracing system of each story in the moment frames are less than those in the corresponding non-moment (simple) frames. The average response modification and deflection amplification factors for both structural schemes are obtained about 8.6 and 5.4, respectively, which are slightly larger than the corresponding recommended values of ASCE for the typical buckling-restrained braces (BRBs).

The superelastic viscous damper (SVD) is a hybrid passive control device comprising a viscoelastic damper and shape memory alloy (SMA) cables connected in series. The SVD is an innovative damper through which a large amount of seismic energy can dissipate. The current study assessed the seismic collapse induced by steel moment-resisting frames (SMRFs) equipped with SVDs and compared them with the performance of special MRFs and buckling restrained brace frames (BRBFs). For this purpose, nonlinear dynamic and incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) were conducted in OpenSees software. Both 5- and 9-story special MRFs, BRBFs, and MRFs equipped with the SVDs were examined. The results indicated that the annual exceedance rate for maximum residual drifts of 0.2% and 0.5% for the BRBFs and MRFs with SVDs, respectively, were considerably less than for SMRFs with reduced-beam section (RBS) connections and that the seismic performances of these structures were enhanced with the use of the BRB and SVD. The probability of collapse due to residual drift in the SVD, BRB, and RBS frames in the 9-story structure was 1.45, 1.75, and 1.05 times greater than for the 5-story frame.

필로티형 저층 RC 집합주택에서는 지진 발생 시 필로티층에 손상이 집중된다. 따라서, 이 연구에서는 필로티층의 비틀림과 X, Y방향의 강도와 강성을 증가시키기 위해 좌굴방지가새를 설치함과 동시에, 과도한 변형과 축력의 변동이 발생하는 외부기둥의 연성과 축성능, 전단 성능을 증가시키기 위해 외부기둥을 FRP로 보강하였다. 이와 같은 보강 효과를 실험적으로 검증하기 위해 순수 골조와 FRP와 좌굴방지가새로 보강된 골조에 대한 반복 횡하중 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과 항복강도(43.2 kN)는 설계항복강도(30 kN)와 압축부의 강도 증가 때문에 차이가 나타났고, 강성(11.6 kN/mm)은 설계강성(24.2 kN/mm)에 비하여 절반의 값을 가졌다. 이러한 강성의 차이는 골조와 가새의 접합부 사이의 미끄러짐과 기초의 회전 및 횡변위가 원인으로 나타났다. 보강된 골조의 에너지 흡수 능력은 순수 골조에 비해 7.5배 향상되었다. 기초당 설치된 로드셀의 개수를 2개에서 1개로 변화시키면, 횡강성이 11.6 kN/mm에서 6 kN/mm로 줄어 들었고, 이것은 단지 순수 골조의 강성에 3배에 지나지 않는다(2.1 kN/mm).

Real-Time Hybrid Simulation (RTHS) is a novel approach conceived to evaluate dynamic responses of structures with parts of a structure physically tested and the remainder parts numerically modelled. In RTHS, delay estimation is often a precondition of compensation; nonetheless, system delay may vary during testing. Consequently, it is sometimes necessary to measure delay online. Along these lines, this paper proposes an online delay estimation method using least-squares algorithm based on a simplified physical system model, i.e., a pure delay multiplied by a gain reflecting amplitude errors of physical system control. Advantages and disadvantages of different delay estimation methods based on this simplified model are firstly discussed. Subsequently, it introduces the least-squares algorithm in order to render the estimator based on Taylor series more practical yet effective. As a result, relevant parameter choice results to be quite easy. Finally in order to verify performance of the proposed method, numerical simulations and RTHS with a buckling-restrained brace specimen are carried out. Relevant results show that the proposed technique is endowed with good convergence speed and accuracy, even when measurement noises and amplitude errors of actuator control are present.

This paper describes the structural solution for the design of a 29-story high-rise tower, which features a large office space above the Kabukiza Theatre. Kabuki is a type of Japanese traditional drama, and Kabukiza is the home building of Kabuki. GINZA KABUKIZA is the fifth generation of the Kabukiza Theatre, the first of which was built in 1889. In order to support 23 stories of office space above the theater - featuring a large void in plan - two 13-meter-deep mega-trusses, spanning 38.4 meters, are installed at the fifth floor of the building. Steelwork is used as a primary material for the structure above-ground, and a hybrid response control system using a buckling-restrained brace and oil damper is adopted in order to achieve a high seismic performance. This paper also describes the erection process of installing hydraulic jacks directly above the mega-truss at column bases, in order to keep the structure above the truss level during construction. The temple architecture of the previous Kabukiza is carefully restored by incorporating contemporary light-weight materials supported by steelwork.
