지진지역의 교량교각에 대한 설계에서 요구연성도는 가장 중요한 요소이다. 철근콘크리트 교각의 내진성능 향상을 위해서 강관으로 교각을 감싸거나 후프철근과 같은 횡방향 철근을 이용하여 교각을 구속함으로써 교각의 연성도를 증가시키는 방안이 필요하다. 강재 매입형 교각을 이용하는 것은 RC 교각 내진성능을 향상시키는 유용한 방법중의 하나이다. 이 논문에서는 강재 매입형 합성교각의 내진성능을 평가하기 위하여 단일강재와 복수강재가 매입된 합성교각에 대하여 준정적 실험을 수행하였다. H형강이 매입된 실험체와 부분 충진된 원형강관이 매입된 단면으로 구성되어 총 8기의 실험체를 제작하였다. 실험변수는 심부구속 철근비, 매입 강재의 종류와 양으로서 이에 대한 변위연성도를 분석하였다. 실험결과 강재매입으로 인하여 교각의 변형능력이 증가하였으며 특히 원형강관이 매입된 교각의 변위연성도와 횡방향 강도가 가장 크게 나타났다.

This paper illustrates the results of a seismic vulnerability study aimed to derive the fragility curves for typical Algerian reinforced concrete bridge piers using an analytical approach. Fragility curves express the probability of exceeding a certain damage state for a given ground motion intensity (e.g., PGA). In this respect, a set of 41 worldwide accelerometer records from which, 21 Algerian strong motion records are included, have been used in a non-linear dynamic response analyses to assess the damage indices expressed in terms of the bridge displacement ductility, the ultimate ductility, the cyclic loading factor and the cumulative energy ductility. Combining the damage indices defined for 5 damage rank with the ground motion indices, the fragility curves for the bridge piers were derived assuming a lognormal distribution.

In this study, inelastic displacement ratios are investigated for existing systems with known lateral strength considering soil structure interaction. For this purpose, SDOF systems for period range of 0.1-3.0 s with different hysteretic behaviors are considered for a number of 18 earthquake motions recorded on soft soil. The effect of stiffness degradation on inelastic displacement ratios is investigated. The Modified Clough model is used to represent structures that exhibit significant stiffness degradation when subjected to reverse cyclic loading and the elastoplastic model is used to represent non-degrading structures. Soil structure interaction analyses are conducted by means of equivalent fixed base model effective period, effective damping and effective ductility values differing from fixed-base case. For inelastic time history analyses, Newmark method for step by step time integration was adapted in an in-house computer program. A new equation is proposed for inelastic displacement ratio of system with SSI with elastoplastic or degrading behavior as a function of structural period ($\tilde{T}$), strength reduction factor (R) and period lengthening ratio ($\tilde{T}$/T). The proposed equation for $\tilde{C}_R$ which takes the soil-structure interaction into account should be useful in estimating the inelastic deformation of existing structures with known lateral strength.

비탄성 변위비는 최대 선형 탄성변위에 대한 최대 비탄성 변위의 비로서 정의된다. 비탄성 변위비는 비탄성 응답의 계산을 하지 않고도 최대 탄성변위로부터 최대 비탄성변위를 직접적으로 평가 가능하게 한다. 비탄성 변위비에 대한 기존의 연구는 이선형 또는 강성저하시스템과 같은 분할선형시스템에 국한되었다. 본 논문에서는 근거리 및 원거리 지진을 받는 완만한 곡선형 이력거동 시스템의 비탄성 변위비에 대하여 연구하였다. 두 단계의 회귀분석 과정을 통하여 비탄성 변위비에 대한 간편식을 제안하였다.

In this study, We examine closely the capacity spectrum method which a kind of displacement-based method evaluated by displacement of structure as an alternative to the load-based analysis method. The displacement-based method can easily review the strength of structure, seismic performance, ductility. Seismic performance by using capacity spectrum method is divided into design response spectrum and capacity spectrum. We can diagram design response spectrum by deciding the design seismic factor depending on performance target, site classification, seismic level, return period as UBC-97. Capacity spectrum is a load-displacement curve obtained by Push-over analysis considering the geometric parameter and the material parameter. We execute the seismic performance evaluation by using the capacity spectrum method to reinforced concrete pier which has been seismic design. As a result, We confirmed that there is a yield point and a ultimate point close by design response spectrum of UBC-97.

본 논문에서는 철골모멘트골조의 초기 강성과 연성을 동시에 조절하기 위해 기둥-보 휨강도비를 고려한 재분배 기법이 제시된다. 제시되는 기법은 총 구조물량과 기둥-보 휨강도비에 대한 제약조건을 만족시키면서 구조물의 최상층의 변위를 최소화한다. 고려된 설계변수는 구조부재의 단면적을 사용하며, 정식화된 문제로부터 최적의 결과를 얻기 위해 Sequential Quadratic Programming(SQP) 기법을 사용한다. 최상층의 횡변위에 대한 각 부재의 변위기여도를 단위하중법을 통해 구하고, 이를 최상층의 횡변위가 감소하도록 각 부재의 단면을 재설계한다. 각 부재의 변위기여도를 이용하여 부재의 단면을 재설계하는 과정은 구조물의 초기 강성을 향상시키는 효과를 가진다. 동시에, 제시된 기법은 기둥-보 휨강도비를 제약함으로써 구조물의 연성을 조절하도록 한다. 제시된 최적변위설계기법은 철골골조 예제에 적용하여 적용성을 검증한다. 적용한 결과 제시된 기법을 통해 구조물의 초기강성과 연성능력이 조절되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper presents the details of studies conducted on hollow concrete block masonry (HCBM) units and wall panels. This study includes, compressive strength of unit block, ungrouted and grouted HCB prisms, flexural strength evaluation, testing of HCBM panels with and without opening. Non-linear finite element (FE) analysis of HCBM panels with and without opening has been carried out by simulating the actual test conditions. Constant vertical load is applied on the top of the wall panel and then lateral load is applied in incremental manner. The in-plane deformation is recorded under each incremental lateral load. Displacement ductility factors and response reduction factors have been evaluated based on experimental results. From the study, it is observed that fully grouted and partially reinforced HCBM panel without opening performed well compared to other types of wall panels in lateral load resistance and displacement ductility. In all the wall panels, shear cracks originated at loading point and moved towards the compression toe of the wall. The force reduction factor of a wall panel with opening is much less when compared with fully reinforced wall panel with no opening. The displacement values obtained by non-linear FE analysis are found to be in good agreement with the corresponding experimental values. The influence of mortar joint has been included in the stress-strain behaviour as a monolith with HCBM and not considered separately. The derived response reduction factors will be useful for the design of reinforced HCBM wall panels subjected to lateral forces generated due to earthquakes.

이 연구에서는 철근콘크리트 전단벽의 횡하중 거동과 연성을 합리적으로 평가하기 위해서 모멘트-곡률관계를 정립하고 이로부터 단순화된 횡하중-횡변위관계를 제시하였다. 최초 휨 균열, 인장철근 항복, 최대내력, 최대내력의 80% 및 인장철근파단시점에서 모멘트와 곡률은 힘의 평형조건과 변형적합조건으로부터 정립되었다. 최대내력 이후의 곡률평가를 위한 압축측연단 콘크리트 변형률은 Razvi and Saatcioglu의 구속된 콘크리트의 응력-변형률 관계를 이용하여 최대응력의 감소계수와 횡보강근 체적지수의 함수로 제시하였다. 모멘트 평가모델은 변수연구를 통하여 인장철근지수, 수직철근지수 및 축력지수의 함수로 일반화하였다. 횡변위는 전단벽의 높이에 따라 분포된 이상화된 곡률로부터 모멘트 면적법을 이용하여 환산하였다. 제시된 횡하중-횡변위관계는 기존 실험 결과와 잘 일치하였으며, 특히 최대내력 이후의 거동을 잘 평가하였다.

In the last decade, displacement-based (DB) methods have become established design procedures for reinforced concrete (RC) structures. They use strain and displacement measures as seismic performance control parameters. As for other simplified seismic design methods, it is of great interest to prove if they are usually conservative in respect to more refined, nonlinear, time history analyses, and can estimate design parameters with acceptable accuracy. In this paper, the current Direct Displacement-Based Design (DDBD) procedure is evaluated for designing simple single degree of freedom (SDOF) systems with specific reference to simply supported RC bridge piers. Using different formulations proposed in literature for the equivalent viscous damping and spectrum reduction factor, a parametric study is carried out on a comprehensive set of SDOF systems, and an average error chart of the method is derived allowing prediction of the expected error for an ample range of design cases. Following the chart, it can be observed that, for the design of actual RC bridge piers, underestimation errors of the DDBD method are very low, while the overestimation range of the simplified displacement-based procedure is strongly dependent on design ductility.

Because of relatively heavy dead weight of concrete itself and unavoidable heat of massive concrete in bridge piers, circular hollow columns are widely used in Korean highway bridges. Since the occurrence of 1995 Kobe earthquake, there have been much concerns about seismic design for various infrastructures, inclusive of bridge structures. It is, however, understood that there are not much research works for nonlinear behavior of circular hollow columns subjected to earthquake motions. The ultimate of this experimental research is investigate nonlinear behavior of circular hollow reinforced concrete bridge piers under the quasi-static cyclic load, and then to enhance their ductility by strengthening the plastic hinge region with glassfiber sheets. It is concluded from quasi-static tests for 7 bridge piers that energy dissipation capacity and curvatures for a given displacement ductility factor $\{\mu}=frac{\Delta}{\Delta_y}$are about 20% higher for the seismically designed columns and about 70% higher for the retrofitted piers than the nonseismically designed columns in a conventional way.
