In current ductility-based earthquake-resistant design, the estimation of design forces continues to be carried out with the application of response modification factors on elastic design spectra. It is well-known that the response modification factor (R) takes into account the force reduction, strength, redundancy, and damping of structural systems. The key components of the response modification factor (R) are force reduction ($R_{\mu}$) and strength ($R_S$) factors. However, the response modification and strength factors for structural systems presented in design codes were based on professional judgment and experiences. A numerical study has been accomplished to evaluate force reduction, strength, and response modification factors for special steel moment resisting frames. A total of 72 prototype steel frames were designed based on the recommendations given in the AISC Seismic Provisions and UBC Codes. Number of stories, soil profiles, seismic zone factors, framing systems, and failure mechanisms were considered as the design parameters that influence the response. The effects of the design parameters on force reduction ($R_{\mu}$), strength ($R_S$), and response modification (R) factors were studied. Based on the analysis results, these factors for special steel moment resisting frames are evaluated.

본 논문에서는 현행 내진설계방법에 따라 설계된 역V형 보통 가새골조 (OCBF)의 비선형 정적 해석을 수행하고, 그 결과를 바탕으로 초과강도계수, 연성계수, 반응수정계수 및 변위 증폭계수 등을 산정하였다. 해석결과에 따르면 대부분의 해석모델에서 현행 내진설계 기준에서 제시한 값보다 작은 초과강도계수 및 반응수정계수 값을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 수직 보강 기둥 (zipper column)으로 가새를 보강한 경우 초과강도계수 및 반등수정계수는 보통 가새 구조물에 비하여 상당히 증가하는 것으로 나타났다.

In general, a fault locator is installed in Sub-Station of AT(Auto-transformer) feeding system to estimate the fault location and to protect the Korean AT feeding system. Since the line impedance characteristic is different to normal 3-phase transmission line, we need particular modification factors, which can be calculated using fault location recording data, to estimate the accurate fault location. Up to recently, forcible ground test has been used to calculate the modification factors of the fault locator. However, large amount of current is occurred when the forcible ground test is performed, and this current affects to adjacent equipments. Therefore, we proposed a novel calculation method of modification factors, arbitrary trip test, using boosting current of the operating electric train. Through several field test, we confirmed that modification factors for fault locator can be easily calculated by using proposed method. Moreover, we verified the accuracy and stability of the proposed calculation method.

The earthquake resistant design concept allows the nonlinear behavior of structures under the design earthquake. Therefore the response spectrum method provided in most codes introduces the response modification factors to consider the nonlinear behavior in the design process. For bridges, the response modification factors are given according to the ductility as well as the redundancy of piers. In this study, among influence factors on the nonlinear seismic behavior, the randomness of artificial accelerograms simulated with different durations, the pier ductility represented by the inelastic behavior characteristic curve and the regularity represented by pier heights are selected. The influence of such factor on the seismic behavior is investigated by comparing response modification factors calculated with the nonlinear time step analysis.

Response modification factor is one of the seismic design parameters to consider nonlinear performance of building structures during strong earthquake, in conformity with the point that many seismic design codes led to reduce the loads. In the present paper it's tried to evaluate the response modification factors of dual moment resistant frame with buckling restrained braced (BRB). Since, the response modification factor depends on ductility and overstrength; the nonlinear static analysis, nonlinear dynamic analysis and linear dynamic analysis have been done on building models including multi-floors and different brace configurations (chevron V, invert V, diagonal and X bracing). The response modification factor for each of the BRBF dual systems has been determined separately, and the tentative value of 10.47 has been suggested for allowable stress design method. It is also included that the ductility, overstrength and response modification factors for all of the models were decreased when the height of the building was increased.

초과강도계수와 연성계수는 현행 내진기준에서 사용되는 반응수정계수를 결정하기 위한 두 가지 중요한 계수이다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 층수 및 경간을 갖는 역V형 특수 중심가새골조의 비선형 정적 해석을 수행하여 초과강도계수와 연성계수를 구하고 이를 이용하여 반응 수정계수를 산정하였다. 해석결과에 따르면 저층 구조물의 경우 IBC-2000에서 제시한 값보다 큰 반응수정계수 값을 가지며, 중층 이상의 경우 기준에서 제시한 값보다 작은 값으로 나타났다. 또한 초과강도계수와 연성계수는 구조물의 높이가 감소할수록, 스팬의 길이가 증가할수록 증가하는 것으로 나타났다.

In this study seismic performance of reinforced concrete staggered wall system structures were investigated and their behavior factors such as overstrength factors, ductility factors, and the response modification factors were evaluated from the overstrength and ductility factors. To this end, 5, 9, 15, and 25-story staggered wall system (SWS) structures were designed and were analyzed by nonlinear static and dynamic analyses to obtain their nonlinear force-displacement relationships. The response modification factors were computed based on the overstrength and the ductility capacities obtained from capacity envelopes. The analysis results showed that the 5- and 9-story SWS structures failed due to yielding of columns and walls located in the lower stories, whereas in the 15- and 25-story structures plastic hinges were more widely distributed throughout the stories. The computed response modification factors increased as the number of stories decreased, and the mean value turned out to be larger than the value specified in the design code.

The seismic behavior of a framed structure with chevron-type buckling restrained braces was investigated and their behavior factors, such as overstrength, ductility, and response modification factors, were evaluated. Two types of structures, building frame systems and dual systems, with 4, 8, 12, and 16 stories were designed per the IBC 2003, the AISC LRFD and the AISC Seismic Provisions. Nonlinear static pushover analyses using two different loading patterns and incremental dynamic analysis using 20 earthquake records were carried out to compute behavior factors. Time history analyses were also conducted with another 20 earthquakes to obtain dynamic responses. According to the analysis results, the response modification factors turned out to be larger than what is proposed in the provision in low-rise structures, and a little smaller than the code-values in the medium-rise structures. The dual systems, even though designed with smaller seismic load, showed superior static and dynamic performances.

연성 계수는 반응수정계수(R)의 핵심구성요소로서 내진설계에서 중요한 역할을 하는 계수이다. 본 연구에서의 연성계수()는 단자유도 구조물의 연성계수()에 다자유도 보정계수()를 곱하여 평가하였다. 단자유도 시스템의 연성계수는 지진하중을 받는 단자유도 구조물의 변위 연성요구도와 주기에 따른 비선형 동적해석으로부터 산정하였다. 다자유도 시스템의 영향을 고려하기 위한 다자유도 보정계수()는 기존의 연구에 근거하여 제시하였다. 철골 연성 모멘트 골조의 연성계수를 평가하기 위하여, 구조물의 층수, 골조시스템(외곽골조, 분배골조), 붕괴 메카니즘(강-기둥 약-보, 약-기둥 강-보), 토질조건 및 지진구역을 변수로 하여 총 108개의 예제 구조물을 설계하였다. 구조물의 층수, 붕괴 메카니즘 및 토질조건은 연성계수에 큰 영향을 미치는 반면, 골조 시스템 및 지진구역은 연성계수에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

일반교량 내진설계의 목적은 지진발생 직후에 긴급차량의 통과를 허용하도록 하는 '붕괴방지설계'의 수행이다. 도로교설계기준은 연성구조를 구성하여 '붕괴방지설계'를 수행하는 규정을 제시하고 있으며 이 과정에서 연결부분과 하부구조에 적용하는 응답수정계수가 핵심적인 역할을 한다. 하부구조 응답수정계수의 경우 도로교설계기준은 연성과 여용력을 고려한 계수인 반면 AASHTO LRFD 교량설계기준은 교량의 중요도를 핵심, 중요 및 일반으로 구분한 인위적인 인자를 추가로 반영한 계수를 제시하고 있다. 이 연구에서는 강재받침과 철근콘크리트 교각기둥으로 구성된 일반교량을 선정하고 도로교설계기준의 설계조건과 함께 하부구조 응답수정계수를 차등 적용하는 경우의 설계결과를 비교, 검토하였으며 이로부터 하부구조 응답수정계수의 차등 적용 시 설계기준에 요구되는 보완사항을 제시하였다.
