Modern performance-based design methods require ways to determine the factual behavior of structures subjected to earthquakes. Drift ratio demands are important measures of structural and/or nonstructural damage of the structures in performance-based design. In this study, global drift ratio and interstory drift ratio demands, obtained by nonlinear time history analysis of three generic RC frames using code-compatible ground motion record sets, are statistically evaluated. Several ground motion record sets compatible with elastic design spectra defined for the local soil classes in Turkish Earthquake Code are used for the analyses. Variation of the drift ratio demands obtained from ground motion records in the sets and difference between the mean of drift ratio demands calculated for ground motion sets are evaluated. The results of the study indicate that i) variation of maximum drift ratio demands in the sets were high; ii) different drift ratio demands are calculated using different ground motion record sets although they are compatible with the same design spectra; iii) the effect of variability due to random causes on the total variability of drift ratio demands is much larger than the effect of variability due to differences between the mean of ground motion record sets; iv) global and interstory drift ratio demands obtained for different ground motion record sets can be accepted as simply random samples of the same population at %95 confidence level. The results are valid for all the generic frames and local soil classes considered in this study.

고층 건물 변위설계는 고층건물 설계의 핵심 기술 중의 하나이며, 재분배 기법은 실용적인 고층건물 변위설계법으로 인식되고 있다. 재분배 기법은 구조 물량을 재분배함으로서 전체 구조물량의 변화없이 제어하고자 하는 변위를 최소화시키는 방법으로서, 재분배기법 적용에 의해서 최종 얻어지는 물량은 초기 물량의 영향을 받게 된다. 초기 물량이 과다한 모델의 경우, 재분배 기법을 적용하면 허용 변위는 충분히 만족하지만 물량 측면에서는 그 만큼의 절감 여지를 내포하고 있다고 볼 수 있다. 그러므로 중량 조절계수를 구조정식화에 포함시켜서 변위설계시 초기 설계안의 물량에 영향을 받지 않는 고층건물 변위설계 기법을 개발하였다. 제안된 변위설계법을 프레임-전단벽 구조물의 변위설계에 적용하여 그 결과를 분석한 결과, 제안된 방법은 초기 물량의 영향을 받지 않으며 고층건물 변위설계가 가능하였다.

Drift design using resizing techniques can be a very practical method in drift design of high-rise buildings since it cannot require sensitivity analysis and structural re-analysis. Resizing techniques has used the cross sectional areas as design variable and supposed that displacement participation factors are inversely proportional to structural weights. Efficiency of resizing techniques based on displacement participation factors may depend on proper selection of sectional properties as design variables. In this study, two different drift design methods with the different sectional properties as design variables are presented and applied to a 20-story structure.

재분배기법을 이용한 변위조절설계법이 고층건물의 실용적인 변위제어 기법으로 제안되고 있다. 현재까지 대부분의 재분배기법을 이용한 변위조절설계법은 일률적으로 단면적을 설계변수로 사용하고 있으나, 부재 특성에 따라 지배적인 부재력이 다르므로 부재적 특성을 고려하여 설계변수를 선택할 필요가 있다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 부재별로 부재력 특성을 고려한 설계변수를 사용한 변위조절설계법을 제안하고 이를 20층 강접골조-전단벽 구조물의 변위조절설계에 적용하여 기존의 단면적을 설계변수로 사용한 변위조절설계법과 비교 평가하였다. 적용 결과, 부재 특성을 고려한 변위조설설계법이 부재별로 지배적인 부재력에 해당하는 부재 단면성능을 설계변수로하여 부재별 변위기여도를 직접 조절하므로 물량 및 변위 예측의 정확도 측면에서 비슷하거나 더 우수함을 알 수 있었다.

재분배 기법은 민감도 해석 없이 변위에 대한 각 부재의 변위기여도를 간단하게 계산 한 후, 변위기여도에 근거하여 물량을 분배함으로서 변위를 제어할 수 있는 실용적인 고층건물 변위 설계법으로 인식되고 있다. 그러나 에너지 이론에 근거한 재분배 기법은 하중 조건에 따라서 서로 다른 변위기여도를 가질 수 있게 되며, 특히 횡력 뿐만 아니라 상당한 량의 연직하중도 함께 받고 있는 고층건물의 재분배 기법 적용시의 변위기여도 계산에는 연직하중의 영향이 고려하여야 한다. 또한, 고층 건물의 변위설계에 재분배 기법을 적용하기 위해서는 실용성을 높이기 위해서 부재 그룹핑이 고려되어지는데 부재 그룹핑 고려에 따른 연직하중의 영향을 다르게 나타나게 된다. 그러므로, 본 연구에서는 하중의 종류와 부재 그룹핑 여부를 변수로 하여 세 가지의 재분배 알고리즘을 개발한 후, 이를 20층 강접 골조 전단벽 예제와 60층 아웃리거 예제의 변위 설계 적용하였다.

The paper reports results of recent studies on the effects of column support conditions on the lateral displacements of moment frames at incipient collapse. The article presents a number of exercises in the plastic theory of structures that lead to useful design formulae. It has been shown that Drift Shifting (DS) is caused due to differences in the stiffnesses of adjoining columns, and that changes in drift ratios are more pronounced at first level column joints in both fixed as well as pinned base frames. In well proportioned moment frames, DS in the upper levels could be minimized, even reduced to zero. It has been demonstrated that DS can be eliminated in properly designed fixed and grade beam supported (GBS) moment frames. Several examples, including symbolic P-delta effects, have been provided to demonstrate the validity and the applications of the proposed ideas to the design and drift control of moment frames. The proposed methodology is exact within the bounds of the theoretical assumptions and is well suited for preliminary design and teaching purposes.

Resizing techniques have been recognized as practical methods for drift design of high-rise building since sensitivity analysis and iterative structural analysis are not required in implementation. In the techniques, the amount of material of a memberin a building for resizing is determined in terms of cross-sectional areas and sectional inertia moments as design variables. In this study, five drift design methods are developed by considering design variable linking strategy and fomulating resizing algorithm in terms of material properties of shear walls as a design variable. The developed methods are applied to the drift design of 20-story frame-RC shear wall structure, and then evaluated in the view points of practicality and efficiency.

Large changes in stiffness associated with cracking and yielding of reinforced concrete sections may be expected to occur during the dynamic response of reinforced concrete frames to earthquake ground shaking. These changes in stiffness in stories that experience cracking might be expected to cause relatively large peak interstory drift ratios. If so, accounting for such changes would add complexity to seismic design procedures. This study evaluates changes in an index parameter to establish whether this effect is significant. The index, known as the coefficient of distortion (COD), is defined as the ratio of peak interstory drift ratio and peak roof drift ratio. The sensitivity of the COD is evaluated statistically for five- and nine-story reinforced concrete frames having either uniform story heights or a tall first story. A suite of ten ground motion records was used; this suite was scaled to five intensity levels to cause varied degrees of damage to the concrete frame elements. Ground motion intensity was found to cause relatively small changes in mean CODs; the changes were most pronounced for changes in suite scale factor from 0.5 to 1 and from 1 to 4. While these changes were statistically significant in several cases, the magnitude of the change was sufficiently small that values of COD may be suggested for use in preliminary design that are independent of shaking intensity. Consequently, design limits on interstory drift ratio may be implemented by limiting the peak roof drift in preliminary design.

Rational scaling of design earthquake ground motions for tall buildings is essential for safer, risk-based design of tall buildings. This paper provides the structural designers with an insight for more rational scaling based on drift and input energy demands. Since a resonant sinusoidal motion can be an approximate critical excitation to elastic and inelastic structures under the constraint of acceleration or velocity power, a resonant sinusoidal motion with variable period and duration is used as an input wave of the near-field and far-field ground motions. This enables one to understand clearly the relation of the intensity normalization index of ground motion (maximum acceleration, maximum velocity, acceleration power, velocity power) with the response performance (peak interstory drift, total input energy). It is proved that, when the maximum ground velocity is adopted as the normalization index, the maximum interstory drift exhibits a stable property irrespective of the number of stories. It is further shown that, when the velocity power is adopted as the normalization index, the total input energy exhibits a stable property irrespective of the number of stories. It is finally concluded that the former property on peak drift can hold for the practical design response spectrum-compatible ground motions.

층간변위율은 구조물의 내진성능을 평가하는데 널리 사용되는 지표 중의 하나이다. 지진에 의해 발생하는 층간변위율이 클수록 지진에 의한 손상이 커지는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 이유로 층간변위율을 감소시키는 설계기술은 내진설계분야에서 중요한 이슈이다. 그럼에도 불구하고 현재까지는 지진하중을 받는 구조물에 대한 현실적인 층간변위설계기법이 제시되고 있지 않다. 본 연구는 재분배 기법을 이용하여 철골모멘트골조의 내진성능을 향상시키기는 최적 층간변위설계기법을 제시한다. 이 기법은 층간변위율 차이를 최소화함으로써 구조물의 층별 층간변위율을 고르게 분포시키고, 최대 층간변위율을 감소시킨다. 이 기법은 단위하중법으로 계산된 변위기여도를 이용하여 구조재의 단면성능을 재설계하기 때문에 반복적인 구조해석없이 구조물의 내진성능을 향상시킬 수 있는 장점을 가진다. 이 기법의 효율성 검증을 위해 철골모멘트골조 예제 적용을 실시하였다.
