In traditional eccentrically braced steel frames, damages and plastic deformations are limited to the links and the main structure members are required tremendous sizes to ensure elasticity with no damage based on the force-based seismic design method, this limits the practical application of the structure. The high strength steel frames with eccentric braces refer to Q345 (the nominal yield strength is 345 MPa) steel used for links, and Q460 steel utilized for columns and beams in the eccentrically brace steel frames, the application of high strength steels not only brings out better economy and higher strength, but also wider application prospects in seismic fortification zone. Here, the structures with four type eccentric braces are chosen, including K-type, Y-type, D-type and V-type. These four types EBFs have various performances, such as stiffness, bearing capacity, ductility and failure mode. To evaluate the seismic behavior of the high strength steel frames with variable eccentric braces within the similar performance objectives, four types EBFs with 4-storey, 8-storey, 12-storey and 16-storey were designed by performance-based seismic design method. The nonlinear static behavior by pushover analysis and dynamic performance by time history analysis in the SAP2000 software was applied. A total of 11 ground motion records are adopted in the time history analysis. Ground motions representing three seismic hazards: first, elastic behavior in low earthquake hazard level for immediate occupancy, second, inelastic behavior of links in moderate earthquake hazard level for rapid repair, and third, inelastic behavior of the whole structure in very high earthquake hazard level for collapse prevention. The analyses results indicated that all structures have similar failure mode and seismic performance.

지반의 액상화는 지진 피해의 대표적인 형태 중 하나이다. 이는 막대한 인적 경제적 피해를 줄 수 있는 현상으로, 지반구조물의 설계 전 필수적으로 검토해야 하는 대상이다. 본 연구에서는 하천 제방을 대상으로 임의의 지진 규모와 수위에서 액상화에 대한 실용적인 복합재해 취약도 곡면 작성법을 제시하였다. 지반의 파괴 정도를 나타내는 액상화 가능 지수(LPI)로 제방의 액상화에 대한 한계상태를 정의하였다. 지반 물성치의 불확실성을 고려하기 위해 Monte Carlo Simulation 기반의 확률론적 해석을 수행하였고, 해석 결과를 바탕으로 임의 수준의 수위와 지진 규모에 대하여 액상화에 의한 파괴확률을 나타내는 3차원의 취약도 곡면을 작성하였다. 작성된 복합재해 취약도 곡면은 홍수 및 지진에 대한 제방의 안전성 평가와 취약지역에 대한 위험도 평가에 사용될 수 있다.

방파제 구조물에 대한 기존의 내진설계 및 내진성능검토에서는 주로 설계지진에 대하여 구조물의 변위 및 응력을 검토함으로써 지진 안전성을 평가한다. 그러나 이러한 검토가 주로 결정론적 접근방법에 의한 것으로 지진의 가장 큰 특성이라 할 수 있는 불확실성을 제대로 반영하기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 지진발생과 지반계수의 화률론적 분포 특성을 고려한 확률론적 지진위험도 평가에 대해 연구하였다. 우선 항만구조물의 지진에 대한 구조적 취약성을 다수의 지진자료를 이용하여 평가하였고, 지진재해지도를 이용하여 해당 지역에서의 지진재해도를 산정하였으며, 이들을 조합함으로써 방파제 구조물의 확률론적 지진위험도를 평가하였다.

한반도에서는 크고 작은 지진이 꾸준히 발생하고 있음을 역사문헌과 계기지진 관측 자료를 통해 알 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 역사지진과 계기지진 자료를 이용해 지리정보시스템(GIS)의 공간분석 결과, 북한의 평양지역이 지진으로부터 가장 위험한 지역으로 결정되었다. 평양은 북한의 수도로서 인구와 구조물의 밀집도가 높아 지진뿐만 아니라 재해로 인해 큰 위험에 처할 수 있다. 502년 평양에서 발생한 규모 6.7의 지진을 토대로 지진동 지도를 작성한 결과, 0.24 g보다 높은 지진동을 느낄 수 있는 지역이 평양지역의 약 51.1%를 차지한다. 또한 통계청 자료에 의하면 북한은 우리나라보다 재해로부터 열악한 환경에 처해 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이번 연구결과는 향후 북한을 포함한 우리나라의 포괄적인 지진재해예측 연구에 유용한 정보로 사용될 수 있다.

Liquefaction hazard caused by earthquake is the damage in a wide range. Until now, liquefaction hazard potential at a small area or most structure in Korea was assessed by modified Seed & Idriss method. However, it has been known that this method is not proper for metropolitan area due to a lot of time and data to perform the related ground response analyses such as Shake program. For these reasons, the current method has been used facilities or structures, not metropolitan area. In this study, several contents in seismic design of Eurocode and Korean seismic design standard for Port and Harbor were introduced and applied for assessing the liquefaction potential and mapping the liquefaction hazard by LPI(Liquefaction Potential Index). Finally, Ulsan metropolitan city was practically drawn in two dimensional space.

In order to reduce seismic hazard the characteristics of strong earthquakes are required. In the region where strong earthquakes do not happen frequently the stochastic simulation of strong motion is an alternative way to predict strong motions. this simulation required input parameters such as the quality factor the corner frequency the moment magnitude the stress drop and so on which can be obtained from analyses of records of small and intermediate earthquakes. Using those parameters obtained in the previous work the strong ground motions are predicted employing the stochastic method, . The results are compared to the two observed earthquakes-the Ulsan Offshore Earthquake and the Kyungju Earthquake. Although some deviations are found the predictions are similar to the observed data. Finally we computed attenuation equations for PGA PGV and ground accelerations for some frequencies using the results of predictions. These results can be used for earthquake engineering and more reliable results will come out as earthquake observations continue.

The earthquake test Procedures specified in three international codes were reviewed and compared for the network equipments. As technical level on the electronics and networking is growing in Korea, many related equipments are required to export to abroad. The network equipments are now essential tools for communication among individuals as well as societies, especially at the hazard situation such as earthquake strike. The Korean network companies are trying to improve the earthquake resistance performance for their products to expand domestic and international markets. In this paper it is reviewed that most codes related on the earthquake tests can be performed with the facilities provided in Korea for the network equipments. However new facility is required to prepare for more performance and higher regulating codes expected.

the devastating earthquake which occurred in Turkey on August 187, 1999, reminds again us the necessity of the preparedness for the earthquake hazard. the level of earthquake engineering in Koran is still low due to the short period of the research and development in this field. Therefore the most efficient way of promoting our technology in this field is considered to collect the information on the state of the art and practice developed in the advanced countries in earthquake engineering and to analyze the advantages and disadvantages and then reflect these to the new seismic codes. for this purpose this study reviews the concept and main characteristics of Eurocode 8 and the findings of many researches that have been performed for the improvement of EC8. Finally the seismic performance evaluation of the building structures designed according to EC8. and the relevant recommendations are summarized.
