This paper describes recent developments in composite construction and their effect on codified design procedures in the UK. Areas of particular interest include: rules on shear connection, design of beams with web openings, serviceability limits, such as floor vibrations, and fire safe design. The design of cellular beams with regular circular openings now includes generalized rules for web-post buckling, and for the development of in-plane moment in the web-post for asymmetric sections. Closed solutions for the maximum shear force due to limits on web-post bending or buckling are presented. The fire resistance of cellular beams is also dependent on the temperature of the web-post, and for closely spaced openings. It is necessary to increase the thickness of fire protection to the web. For serviceability design of beams, deflection limits and natural frequency and response factor for vibration are presented. It may be necessary to use stricter limits for certain applications.

Accurately determining the natural frequencies and mode shapes of a structural floor is an essential step to assess the floor's human-induced vibration serviceability. In the theoretical analysis, the prestressed concrete floor can be idealized as a multi-span continuous anisotropic plate. This paper presents a new analytical approach to determine the natural frequencies and mode shapes of a multi-span continuous orthotropic plate. The suggested approach is based on the combined modal and perturbation method, which differs from other approaches as it decomposes the admissible functions defining the mode shapes by considering the intermodal coupling. The implementation of this technique is simple, requiring no tedious mathematical calculations. The perturbation solution is validated with the numerical results.

The serviceability evaluation methods regarding floor vibration can be found in foreign building codes or design guides for vibration. AISC, AIJ, CEN, CSA and ISO are sucn examples. However, because the those guides are based on each country's experimental results, there will be different evaluation results for the same conditions. Meanwhile, in korea, we have little research results that suits for our condition, and we continue to use those foreing guides. In this paper, 20 flat plate slabs were carried out to investigate the accuracy of existing frequency formulas.

최근 구조해석기법이 발달하고 구조재료가 고강도화 함에 따라 건물의 스팬이 점점 길어지고 따라서 바닥의 고유진동수와 감쇠능력이 낮아지고 있다. 이로 인해 과거에는 고려하지 않았던 진동문제가 빈번하게 대두되고 있으며, 구조체의 고유진동수가 사람이 민감하게 느끼는 범위에 들기 쉬우며, 더욱이 군중들이 모여서 뛰고 하는 장소는 바닥판의 고유진동수와 가진진동수가 근접함으로 인한 증폭현상이 발생할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 스팬이 33m로서 장스팬인 다목적 홀을 대상으로 진동측정을 하여 고유진동수와 감쇠를 측정하였고, 본 장소에서 국내 유명가수의 공연시 진동을 측정하여 진동실태를 조사하였다. 조사결과 2차 하모닉과 바닥판의 고유진동수가 근접할 때 공진현상이 발생함을 알 수 있었으며, 이렇게 조사한 자료를 바탕으로 설계 유지관리시 고려해야 할 사항들을 검토하였다.

Cold-formed steel (CFS) sections are becoming an increasingly popular solution for constructing floors in residential, healthcare and education buildings. Their reduced weight, however, makes them prone to excessive vibrations, increasing the need for accurate prediction of CFS floor modal properties. By combining experimental modal analysis of a full-scale CFS framed building and its floors and their numerical finite element (FE) modelling this paper demonstrates that the existing methods (based on the best engineering judgement) for predicting CFS floor modal properties are unreliable. They can yield over 40% difference between the predicted and measured natural frequencies for important modes of vibration. This is because the methods were adopted from other floor types (e.g., timber or standard steel-concrete composite floors) and do not take into account specific features of CFS floors. Using the adjusted and then updated FE model, featuring semi-rigid connections led to markedly improved results. The first four measured and calculated CFS floor natural frequencies matched exactly and all relevant modal assurance criterion (MAC) values were above 90%. The introduction of flexible supports and more realistic modelling of the floor boundary conditions, as well as non-structural $fa{\c{c}}ade$ walls, proved to be crucial in the development of the new more successful modelling strategy. The process used to develop 10 identified and experimentally verified FE modelling parameters is based on published information and parameter adjustment resulting from FE model updating. This can be utilised for future design of similar lightweight steel floors in prefabricated buildings when checking their vibration serviceability, likely to be their governing design criterion.

최근에 넓은 공간이 요구되는 건축물에서는 칸막이 벽과 같은 비구조재의 사용이 감소됨으로써 감쇠효과가 크게 줄어들고 있으며 고강도재료의 사용으로 바닥판 구조물이 유연화, 장경간화 되어가고 있다. 대형집회공간, 쇼핑몰, 사무실 등과 같이 장경간 건축물에서는 사람의 움직임에 의하여 과도한 진동이 발생할 수 있으며 이러한 진동은 건축물의 사용성을 크게 저하시키는 원인이 되고 있다. 바닥판 진동의 주요 진동원 중의 하나가 보행하중이다. 보행하중을 받는 구조물의 진동해석에 있어서 보행하중을 적용하는 일반적인 방법은 한 절점에 보행하중을 연속적으로 가하거나 주기하중으로 이상화된 동적하중을 가하는 것이다. 그러나 이러한 방법은 보행의 이동효과를 고려할 수 없다. 본 논문에서는 실제 바닥판 구조물의 고유진동수와 감쇠비를 평가하였으며 예제 구조물의 효율적인 진동해석을 위하여 보행하중을 적용하였다.

This research estimated decreased vibration level as quantitative according to change of track system on Seoul Subway Line No. 1 from existing ballasted track system(Pandrol type clip) to concrete track system(Youbgdan type isolation rubber clip). Following change to concrete system, vibration level at tunnel floor decreased between 4-8dB(V). Vibration equations suggested in this paper consider the velocity of train and can estimate quantitative vibration response. These are divided by ultimate limit state($\beta$=0), serviceability limit state($\beta$=1.28) and safety state($\beta$=3), respectively. The reliability index, $\beta$=0, means 50％ data line obtained by least squares best-fit line. The reliability index $\beta$=1.28 and 3 represent boundaries below 90％ and 99.9％ respectively.

The Expo Culture Centre is one of the permanent buildings at the World Expo 2010 in Shanghai, China. The main structure has an oval shape and consists of 36 radial cantilever steel trusses with different lengths and inner frames made of concrete-filled rectangular steel tube members. Tuned mass dampers are used to reduce the excessive vibrations of the sixth floor that are caused by human-induced resonance. A three-dimensional analytical model of the system is developed, and its main characteristics are established. A series of field tests are performed on the structure, and the test results show that the vertical vibration frequencies of most structural cantilevers are between 2.5 Hz and 3.5 Hz, which falls in the range of human-induced vibration. Twelve pairs of tuned mass dampers weighing 115 tons total were installed in the structure to suppress the vibration response of the system. These mass dampers were tuned to the vertical vibration frequency of the structure, which had the highest possibility of excitation. Test data obtained after the installation of the tuned mass dampers are used to evaluate their effectiveness for the reduction of the vibration acceleration. An analytical model of the structure is calibrated according to the measured dynamic characteristics. An analysis of the modified model is performed and the results show that when people walk normally, the structural vibration was low and the tuned mass dampers have no effect, but when people run at the structural vibration frequency, the tuned mass dampers can reduce the floor vibration acceleration by approximately 15%.

바닥구조의 진동을 평가하는데 있어 기존의 고유진동수 예측식에 의한 방법이 사용되어지고 있다. 그러나, 이러한 예측식들은 재료에 따른 구분이 없기 때문에 실제와느나 다른 결과를 보이게 된다. 또한, 합성데크 플레이트 슬래브의 경우, 고유진동수를 예측하기 위해 슬래브의 단면을 환산해야 하는데, 각 데크 플레이트의 특성상 그 형태가 상이함으로 인하여 많은 어려움을 느끼게 된다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 슬래브의 단면을 환산하기 위한 새로운 단순화된 방법을 제시하였다. 그리고, 실제 측정값과 가장 오차율이 적은 "LRFD"에 제안된 고유진동수 산출식을 보정하여 기존 예측시에 비해 약 14.3%의 오차율을 개선하는 새로운 예측보정식을 제안하고, 이에 대한 일반적인 적용가능성을 검증하였다.
