The purpose of this study is to propose new hysteretic characteristics of medium- to low-rise RC structures controlled by both shear and flexure. Through previous study, the dual lateral force-resisting system composed of shear and flexural failure members has a new failure mechanism that cooperates to enhance the flexural capacity of the flexural failure member even after the failure of the shear member, and the existing theoretical equation significantly underestimates the ultimate strength. In this study, the residual lateral strength mechanism of the dual lateral force-resisting system was analyzed, and, as a result, an equation for estimating the residual flexural strength of each shear-failure member was proposed. The residual flexural strength of each shear-failure member was verified in comparison with the structural testing results obtained in previous study, and the proposed residual flexural strength equation for shear-failure members was tested for reliability using FEA, and its applicable range was also determined. In addition, restoring-force characteristics for evaluating the seismic performance of the dual lateral force-resisting system (nonlinear dynamic analysis), reflecting the proposed residual flexural strength equation, were proposed. Finally, the validity of the restoring-force characteristics of RC buildings equipped with the dual lateral force-resisting system proposed in the present study was verified by performing pseudo-dynamic testing and nonlinear dynamic analysis based on the proposed restoring-force characteristics. Based on this comparative analysis, the applicability of the proposed restoring-force characteristics was verified.

Several theoretical and analytical formulations for the prediction of shear strength in reinforced concrete (RC) beam-to-column joints have been recently developed. Some of these predictive models are included in the most recent seismic codes and currently used in practical design. On the other hand, the influence of the stiffness and strength degradations in RC joints on the seismic performance of RC framed buildings has been only marginally studied, and it is generally neglected in practice-oriented seismic analysis. To investigate such influence, this paper proposes a numerical description for representing the cyclic response of RC exterior joints. This is then used in nonlinear numerical simulations of RC frames subjected to earthquake loading. According to the proposed strategy, RC joints are modelled using nonlinear rotational spring elements with strength and stiffness degradations and limited ductility under cyclic loading. The proposed joint model has been firstly calibrated against the results from experimental tests on 12 RC exterior joints. Subsequently, nonlinear static and dynamic analyses have been carried out on two-, three- and four-storey RC frames, which represent realistic existing structures designed according to old standards. The numerical results confirm that the global seismic response of the analysed RC frames is strongly affected by the hysteretic damage in the beam-to-column joints, which determines the failure mode of the frames. This highlights that neglecting the effects of joints damage may potentially lead to non-conservative seismic assessment of existing RC framed structures.

The number of schools which have passed 30 years after the construction takes up 30% (5% falling to class D and E) in Korea. So, the offices of education across the nation conduct large works for the expansion, improvement and renovation of the school. But as the work takes a lot of time, the work is also conducted while the students are studying at the schools. The work at the school causes the noise, dust, vibration as the school often has the reinforced concrete structure. So, as the windows are closed to prevent the nuisance from hampering the education, the problems related to the illumination, ventilation, and control of humidity and temperature are give damages to students studying the school buildings. Actually, as the current renovation or expansion is conducted across the nation due to the implementation of the new education system and the resulting integration and construction of hub school, specialized school, meister school and it causes a lot of nuisance to the learning students and others, there are a lot of complaints from concerned people. Accordingly this study suggests the method of evaluating the factors which affect the learning environment such as the noise, dust or fine dust and reducing the nuisances to the level proper for the learning environment when the existing school is expanded, improved or renovated.

연결보를 가진 전단벽 시스템은 벽체의 개별 강성을 합산한 것보다 훨씬 큰 강성을 확보할 수 있기 때문에 효율적인 횡력저항시스템으로서 40층 이하의 중 고층 건물에 널리 적용되고 있다. 일반적으로 사용되는 철근콘크리트 연결보는 철근배근이 복잡해 시공성이 저하되고, 철골연결보의 경우에는 과도한 스티프너의 사용으로 인해 경제성이 저하된다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 따라서, 이 연구에서는 철근콘크리트와 철골부재를 합성하여 시공성 및 경제성을 개선하고 단면크기를 줄일 수 있는 불연속웨브가 적용된 프리스트레스트 합성연결보를 개발하였다. 개발한 프리스트레스트 합성 연결보의 구조적인 성능을 검증하기 위해서 전단철근비를 주요 변수로 두 개의 실험체를 제작하여 반복하중실험을 수행하였으며, 실험결과는 제안된 연결보의 내진성능을 검증하였다.

The existing vision-based techniques for inspection and condition assessment of civil infrastructure are mostly manual and consequently time-consuming, expensive, subjective, and risky. As a viable alternative, researchers in the past resorted to deep learning-based autonomous damage detection algorithms for expedited post-disaster reconnaissance of structures. Although a number of automatic damage detection algorithms have been proposed, the scarcity of labeled training data remains a major concern. To address this issue, this study proposed a semi-supervised learning (SSL) framework based on consistency regularization and cross-supervision. Image data from post-earthquake reconnaissance, that contains cracks, spalling, and exposed rebars are used to evaluate the proposed solution. Experiments are carried out under different data partition protocols, and it is shown that the proposed SSL method can make use of unlabeled images to enhance the segmentation performance when limited amount of ground truth labels are provided. This study also proposes DeepLab-AASPP and modified versions of U-Net++ based on channel-wise attention mechanism to better segment the components and damage areas from images of reinforced concrete buildings. The channel-wise attention mechanism can effectively improve the performance of the network by dynamically scaling the feature maps so that the networks can focus on more informative feature maps in the concatenation layer. The proposed DeepLab-AASPP achieves the best performance on component segmentation and damage state segmentation tasks with mIoU scores of 0.9850 and 0.7032, respectively. For crack, spalling, and rebar segmentation tasks, modified U-Net++ obtains the best performance with Igou scores (excluding the background pixels) of 0.5449, 0.9375, and 0.5018, respectively. The proposed architectures win the second place in IC-SHM2021 competition in all five tasks of Project 2.

This paper proposes a novel frame element on Winkler-Pasternak foundation for analysis of a non-ductile reinforced concrete (RC) member resting on foundation. These structural members represent flexural-shear critical members, which are commonly found in existing buildings designed and constructed with the old seismic design standards (inadequately detailed transverse reinforcement). As a result, these structures always experience shear failure or flexure-shear failure under seismic loading. To predict the characteristics of these non-ductile structures, efficient numerical models are required. Therefore, the novel frame element on Winkler-Pasternak foundation with inclusion of the shear-flexure interaction effect is developed in this study. The proposed model is derived within the framework of a displacement-based formulation and fiber section model under Timoshenko beam theory. Uniaxial nonlinear material constitutive models are employed to represent the characteristics of non-ductile RC frame and the underlying foundation. The shear-flexure interaction effect is expressed within the shear constitutive model based on the UCSD shear-strength model as demonstrated in this paper. From several features of the presented model, the proposed model is simple but able to capture several salient characteristics of the non-ductile RC frame resting on foundation, such as failure behavior, soil-structure interaction, and shear-flexure interaction. This confirms through two numerical simulations.

건축 구조물의 내진설계규정은 1988년에 만들어졌으며, 설계된 지 20년이 지난 많은 구조물들이 내진 성능을 갖추지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 특히, 벽식 구조 공동주택들의 경우 내진설계가 수행되지 않았으며 장변 방향으로는 지진하중을 저항하는 벽들이 배치되지 않아 지진의 위험에 노출되어 있다. 최근에는 기존 구조물에 대해서 내진 성능을 평가하고 부족한 구조물에 대한 보강 방안을 개발하는 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 이것은 기존 구조물에 대하여 구조 해석과 설계 과정이 선행되어야 하므로 많은 시간과 노력이 소비되고 있다. 따라서 보다 간단한 방법으로 내진 성능을 평가하는 방법이 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 KBC-code에 의해 내진설계가 수행된 3개의 모델 구조물과 내진 설계가 수행되지 않은 4개의 모델 구조물에 대하여 한국시설안전기술공단에서 제시한 기존 구조물의 내진 성능 평가 방안에 의한 내진 성능평가를 수행하였다. 평가 결과를 MIDAS프로그램을 이용한 CSM법에 의한 내진 성능 평가 결과와 비교하여 개략적인 평가 결과의 적정성을 비교 분석하였다. 평가 결과 기존에 사용되어진 평가 방법은 전단응력 평가와 층간 변위 평가에서 저평가되는 경향이 있었으며, 이는 판정을 왜곡시키는 결과를 가져오게 되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기존 평가 방법의 수정안을 제시하여 그 적용성을 분석하였다.
