Despite its disadvantages, soft story can reduce the damage to the upper floors by concentrating drift in that specific story provided that large drifts are avoided. Gapped-Inclined Brace (GIB) with reduced P-delta effects and the control of soft story stiffness makes it possible to take advantage of the soft story in buildings and increase their capacity for energy dissipation. OpenSees software is used in this study to validate and modify the GIB model's shortcomings. Also, the analysis method for this element is changed for design. The modified element is evaluated in 3D analysis. Finally, to retrofit an existing building, this element is used. Based on the Iranian seismic code, a six-story reinforced concrete building is modelled and studied with 3D analysis. In this building, the construction shortcomings and elimination of infills on the ground floor cause the formation of a soft story. Results of nonlinear static analysis, nonlinear dynamic, and incremental dynamic analysis using both components of seismic acceleration applied to the structure at different angles and the fragility curves indicate the improvement of the retrofitted structure's performance using the modified element to reach the required performance level following the retrofit code.

본 연구에서는 기존 강도증진형 내진보강법의 단점을 보완 개선할 수 있는 새로운 개념의 내진보강법인 SRCF (Steel Reinforced Concrete Frame) 외부접합형 내진보강법을 제안하였다. SRCF 보강법은 거주자가 거주가 가능하면서 내진보강 공사를 실시할 수가 있으며, 접합부 시공성이 탁월하며, 특히 필요 내진보강량 산정이 간편한 전형적인 강도증진형으로 전단파괴가 지배적인 비내진상세를 가지는 국내 중 저층 철근콘크리트 건물에는 내력확보가 용이한 내진보강공법이다. 본 연구에서 제안한 SRCF 외부접합형 공법의 유용성을 검증 할 목적으로 기존 중 저층 철근콘크리트 학교건물의 골조를 대상으로 유사동적실험을 실시하여 내진보강효과를 검토하였다. 그 결과, 국내에서 발생 가능한 최대 지진규모(300gal)에서 비보강 골조는 붕괴를 하였지만, SRCF 외부접합형 내진보강법으로 보강한 골조는 경미한 지진피해가 예상되었으며, 대규모 지진(400, 500gal)을 상정한 경우에도 소규모 이하의 지진피해가 예상되어 본 연구에서 개발한 SRCF 내진보강법의 유효성이 검증되었다고 사료된다.

In this study, nonlinear dynamic response of a concrete plate retrofit with Aluminium oxide ($Al_2O_3$) under seismic load and magnetic field is investigated. The plate is a composite reinforced by Aluminium oxide with characteristics of the equivalent composite being determined using Mori-Tanka model considering agglomeration effect. The plate is simulated with higher order shear deformation plate model. Employing nonlinear strains-displacements, stress-strain, the energy equations of column was obtained and using Hamilton's principal, the governing equations were derived. Differential quadrature method (DQM) in conjunction with Newark method is applied for obtaining the dynamic response of structure. The influences of magnetic field, volume percent of nanoparticles, geometrical parameters of column, agglomeration and boundary conditions on the dynamic response were investigated. Results showed that with increasing volume percent of nanoparticles, the dynamic deflection decreases.

In the framework of the SPEAR (Seismic PErformance Assessment and Rehabilitation) research Project, an under-designed three storey RC frame structure, designed to sustain only gravity loads, was subjected, in three different configurations 'as-built', Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) retrofitted and rehabilitated by reinforced concrete (RC) jacketing, to a series of bi-directional pseudodynamic (PsD) tests under different values of peak ground acceleration (PGA) (from a minimum of 0.20g to a maximum of 0.30g). The seismic deficiencies exhibited by the 'as-built' structure after the test at PGA level of 0.20g were confirmed by a post - test assessment of the structural seismic capacity performed by a nonlinear static pushover analysis implemented on the structure lumped plasticity model. To improve the seismic performance of the 'as-built' structure', two rehabilitation interventions by using either FRP laminates or RC jacketing were designed. Assumptions for the analytical modeling, design criteria and calculation procedures along with local and global intervention measures and their installation details are herein presented and discussed. Nonlinear static pushover analyses for the assessment of the theoretical seismic capacity of the structure in each retrofitted configuration were performed and compared with the experimental outcomes.

우리나라 기존철도 교량의 40% 이상이 무도상 강판형교로 구성되어 있으며, 이들 중 대부분은 1970년대 이전에 건설되었기에 일반적으로 지진하중의 고려 없이 설계되었다. 이들 무도상 강판형 철도교의 내진성능을 향상시키기 위해서는 내진성능이 부족한 요소들에 대하여 여러가지 방법의 내진보강을 수행할 수 있는데, 내진보강의 적정수위를 정하기 위해서는 이에 대한 지진위험도 평가가 필수적이라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 확률적 지진 위험도 해석과 확률적 손상해석을 통해서 무도상 강판형교에 대한 지진위험도 평가를 수행하였다. 먼저 받침 및 교각을 교량의 지진 응답에 주 영향을 미치는 주요 요소로 정의하고 각 요소 별로 지진취약도를 작성하였다. 그 후 작성된 취약도를 지진재해도함수와 결합하여 각 손상상태에 해당하는 연간 손상확률을 산정하였다. 지진 위험도 해석을 통하여 50년 초과손상확률을 계산한 결과, 무근콘크리트로 되어 있는 무도상 강판형 철도교의 교각은 우리나라의 지진상황에서 위험도가 매우 낮게 나타났다. 이는 무도상 강판형교의 특성 상 가벼운 상부구조로 인하여 지진 시 하부구조에 전달되는 횡하중이 상대적으로 적기 때문인 것으로 분석된다. 반면에 선받침으로 구성된 무도상 강판형교의 받침요소들의 50년 초과 손상확률은 상대적으로 크게 나타났는데, 그 중 자유단 받침의 경우 slight damage에 대한 초과손상확률이 12.78%로 고정단 받침의 4.23%보다 높게 나타난 반면 complete damage에 대해서는 자유단 받침과 고정단 받침 모두 비슷한 수준의 초과손상확률($0.18%{\sim}0.19%$)을 보였다. 본 연구에서 수행한 지진 위험도 평가는 추후 강판형 철도교의 내진보강을 수행함에 있어서 의사결정을 뒷받침할 수 있는 자료로 효과적으로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

In the case of columns in buildings with soft story, the concentration of stress due to the difference in stiffness can damage the columns. The irregularity of buildings including soft story requires retrofit because combined load of compression, bending, shear, and torsion acts on the structure. Concrete jacketing is advantageous in securing the strength and stiffness of existing members. However, the brittleness of concrete make it difficult to secure ductility to resist the large deformation, and the complicated construction process for integrity between the existing member and extended section reduces the constructability. In this study, two types of Steel Grid Reinforcement (SGR), which are Steel Wire Mesh (SWM) for integrity and Steel Fiber Non-Shrinkage Mortar (SFNM) for crack resistance are proposed. One reinforced concrete (RC) column with non-seismic details and two columns retrofitted with each different types of proposed method were manufactured. Seismic performance was analyzed for cyclic loading test in which a combined load of compression, bending, shear, and torsion was applied. As a result of the experiment, specimens retrofitted with proposed concrete jacketing method showed 862% of maximum load, 188% of maximum displacement and 1,324% of stiffness compared to non-retrofitted specimen.

A series of three shear wall specimens was tested under constant axial stress and reversed cyclic lateral loading in order to evaluate the seismic retrofit that had been proposed for the shear wall with the opening induced by remodeling. One of these specimens was tested in the as-built condition and the other two were retrofitted prior to testing. The retrofit involved the use of carbon fiber sheets and steel plates (thickness of 3mm) over the entire face of the wall. The test results show that the ultimate failure modes of the specimens were found to be shear fracture of the wall around the opening and two difference types of retrofitting strategy make the different effects of a rise in the strength of each specimen.

The purpose of this work is to investigate the seismic behavior of St. Titus Church in Heraklion, Crete, Greece as well as the need of its seismic retrofitting. A numerical model of the Church is constructed using shell finite elements and it is then seismically examined using response spectrum and linear time-history analyses. Effects of soil-structure interaction have been also taken into account. The Church without retrofit is expected to exhibit extensive tensile failures and many compressive ones. Aiming to maintain the architectural character of the structure as well as to increase its seismic resistance, a retrofitting procedure involving injection of cement grout in conjunction with reinforced concrete jacketing to the internal side of the masonry walls is proposed. A numerical implementation of the proposed seismic retrofitting is performed and its effect is evaluated by response spectrum and linear time-history analyses. From the results of these analyses, it is shown that compressive failures are eliminated while only few tensile failures of local character take place.

In this study, the seismic performance of low - rise piloti buildings with concentric core (shear wall) position is analysed and reviewed based on KDS 41. The prototype is selected among the constructed low - rise piloti buildings with concentric core designed based on KBC 2005 which was used for many low - rise piloti buildings construction. The seismic performance of the building shows plastic behavior in X-direction and elastic behavior in Y-direction. The inter-story drift is lager than that of concentric core case and is under the maximum allowed drift ratio. The displacement ratio of first story is much lager the that of upper stories, and the frame structure in the first story is evaluated as vulnerable to lateral force. Therefore, low - rise piloti buildings with concentric core need the diminishment of lateral displacement and reinforcement of lateral resistance capacity in seismic design and seismic retrofit.
