The wind design of buildings is typically based on strength provisions under ultimate loads. This is unlike the ductility-based approach used in seismic design, which allows inelastic actions to take place in the structure under extreme seismic events. This research investigates the application of a similar concept in wind engineering. In seismic design, the elastic forces resulting from an extreme event of high return period are reduced by a load reduction factor chosen by the designer and accordingly a certain ductility capacity needs to be achieved by the structure. Two reasons have triggered the investigation of this ductility-based concept under wind loads. Firstly, there is a trend in the design codes to increase the return period used in wind design approaching the large return period used in seismic design. Secondly, the structure always possesses a certain level of ductility that the wind design does not benefit from. Many technical issues arise when applying a ductility-based approach under wind loads. The use of reduced design loads will lead to the design of a more flexible structure with larger natural periods. While this might be beneficial for seismic response, it is not necessarily the case for the wind response, where increasing the flexibility is expected to increase the fluctuating response. This particular issue is examined by considering a case study of a sixty-five-story high-rise building previously tested at the Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel Laboratory at the University of Western Ontario using a pressure model. A three-dimensional finite element model is developed for the building. The wind pressures from the tested rigid model are applied to the finite element model and a time history dynamic analysis is conducted. The time history variation of the straining actions on various structure elements of the building are evaluated and decomposed into mean, background and fluctuating components. A reduction factor is applied to the fluctuating components and a modified time history response of the straining actions is calculated. The building components are redesigned under this set of reduced straining actions and its fundamental period is then evaluated. A new set of loads is calculated based on the modified period and is compared to the set of loads associated with the original structure. This is followed by non-linear static pushover analysis conducted individually on each shear wall module after redesigning these walls. The ductility demand of shear walls with reduced cross sections is assessed to justify the application of the load reduction factor "R".

현행 도로교설계기준의 내진설계기준은 완전연성 설계 개념을 채택함으로써, 과도하게 배근되는 횡구속철근으로 인하여 현장 시공에 어려움을 겪는 사례가 많이 있다. 이것은 한반도와 같은 중 약진직역에서 완전연성이 필요하지 않는 경우가 일반적임에도 불구하고 완전연성을 확보하기 위한 심부 구속철근량이 배근되기 때문이다. 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위한 방안으로 한정연성 설계개념을 도입한 연성도 내진설계법이 제안된 바 있다. 연성도 내진설계법에서는 재료강도와 함께 소요연성도와 형상비를 변수로 하여 횡구속철근량을 결정하는 산정식을 사용하고 있다. 본 논문은 횡구속철근 산정식을 중심으로 연성도 내진설계법의 안전성을 검증함을 목적으로 한다. 국내 외에서 수행된 89개의 원형단면 기둥 실험 결과를 대상으로 변위연성도 안전율을 검토한 결과 1.11$\sim$3.98 사이의 값을 보였으며, 평균 변위연성도 안전율은 1.90으로 충분한 안전율을 보였다. 이 논문에서는 또한 연성도 내진설계법의 구체적인 설계절차도 소개하였으며, 횡구속철근의 설계에 고려되는 주요 변수들이 변위연성도 안전율에 주는 영향도 분석하였다.

The purpose of this study is to develop a reasonable design for transverse confinement reinforcement considering ductility and required transverse confinement reinforcement of RC bridge columns. In order to develop relationships between the curvature ductility and required transverse confinement reinforcement for design purpose, the analysis using the computer program NARCC have been carried out for parametric studies. Based on the results from the parametric studies, an equation for calculating the required transverse confinement reinforcement based on ductility demand was developed for seismic design of RC bridge columns. The equations proposed by this study will provide more reasonable and more effective design guidelines for performance-based seismic design of RC bridge columns.

This paper reviews aspects of current design procedures for seismic design of structures, and specifically examines their relevance to the design of light framed residential buildings under earthquake loading. The significance of the various structural contributions made by the components of cold formed steel framed residential structures subjected to earthquake induced loadings has been investigated. This is a common form of residential construction worldwide. Particular attention is given to aspects related to ductility and overstrength, the latter arising principally from the contributions of the designated "non-structural" components. Based on both analytical and experimental data obtained from research investigations on steel framed residential structures, typical ranges of the ductility reduction factor and overstrength ratios are determined. It is concluded that the latter parameter has a very significant influence on the seismic design of such structures. Although the numerical ranges for the inelastic seismic parameters given in this paper were obtained for Australian houses, the concepts and the highlighted aspects of seismic design methodology are more widely applicable.

The existing capacity spectrum method (CSM) is based on the displacement based approach for seismic performance and evaluation. Currently, in the domestic and overseas standard concerning seismic design, the CSM to obtain capacity spectrum from capacity curve and demand spectrum from elastic response spectrum is presented. In the multistory building, collapse is affected more by drift than by displacement, but the existing CSM does not work for story drift. Therefore, this paper proposes an improved CSM to estimate story drift of structures through seismic performance and evaluation. It uses the ductility factor in the A-T domain to obtain constant-ductility response spectrum from earthquake response of inelastic system using the drift and capacity curve from capacity analysis of structure.

In order to avoid collapse of bridges in earthquakes bridge piers are generally designed to attain sufficient ductility. This full-ductility design method has merits for securing the seismic safety readily against strong earthquakes but, it has weakness of high cost design because of excessive safety margin. Recently, in many countries with high seismic technologies, the seismic design concept tends to shift from the collapse prevention design to the performance-based one which requires different performance (damage) levels according to the structural importance. In order to establish this performance-based design method the displacement ductility of confined concrete members should be evaluated quantitatively. And the stress-strain model of confined concrete is indispensible in evaluating displacement ductility. In this study, 6 test groups with different lateral reinforcement ratios were prepared. 10 same specimens with circular section for each group were tested to obtain more reliable test results. The characteristic values necessary for composing the stress-strain model were obtained from experiments. Based on these characteristic values the new stress-strain model modifying the Hoshikuma's one has been proposed.

본 연구에서는 변위기반 성능설계 개념에 의해 기존 철근콘크리트 기둥과 콘크리트에 강재를 매입한 SRC 합성기둥에 대하여 최대 설계지진 가속도에 대한 내진성능개선의 성능설계을 비교하였다. SRC 합성기둥은 구조물의 강도를 증가시킬 뿐 아니라 연성도를 증가시키는 효과가 있다. SRC 합성기둥의 단면은 H형 강재와 원형의 중공 강관을 매입한 형태로 구성되어 있다. SRC 합성기둥에 대한 P-M상관도와 단면 공칭휨모멘트를 분석하고 이를 바탕으로 SRC 합성기둥에 대한 설계 변위 추정을 위해 변위기반 내진 설계 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 성능기반설계에 의한 성능개선설계를 위하여 목표성능변위 및 설계지진가속도 조건에 대해 직접변위 기반 설계방법 및 변위계수법에 의한 내진성능개선 설계 방법을 제시하였다. SRC 합성기둥은 기존 RC 기둥과 비교하여 성능개선 설계 결과 변위 연성비 및 변위성능에서 크게 개선된 성능설계 결과를 나타내었다.

현행 내진설계 규준에서 사용하고 있는 반응수정계수는 설계지진하중과 유사한 지진발생시 구조물이 비선형 거동을 하도록 탄성응답에서 요구되는 밑면전단력 값을 낮추는 계수라 할 수 있다. 따라서 반응수정계수는 하중저감계수(force reduction factor)라고 할 수 있으며, 이러한 값들은 경험적으로 결정된 것이어서 예상지진에 대하여 구조설계자가 설계한 건물이 어느정도의 비선형 거동을 할지는 예측하기가 힘들다. 본 연구에서는 목표가 되는 연성비(target ductility ratio)에 따라 요구되는 밑면전단력의 값을 구하고 이를 규준에서 요구하는 값과 비교할 것이다. 만약 요구되는 값이 규준 값 보다 크다면 이는 구조물이 가지는 부가강도(overstrength)나 잉여력(redundancy)이 담당해야 한다. 모멘트연성골조 건물을 설계한 후 이를 push-over 해석에 의하여 부가강도를 찾아 보아 요구강도와 비교할 것이다.

The verification of the seismic performance of many urban railway bridges will be done or is done by the regulations of "Seismic Performance Evaluation Methods(Tips) of Existing Bridges" developed by KISTEC in 2004. This present process may involve some of the issues such as the unreflecting of the characteristics of the urban railway bridge and the appearance of ductility-based seismic design method. In this paper, the new and improved seismic performance evaluation system is proposed.
