철골 기둥-보 강축 접합부에 대한 연구는 그 동안 국내외에서 오랜 기간 연구가 진행되어 내진성능 및 접합부의 강도를 개선시킬 수 있는 많은 접합 형식이 개발되어 사용 중에 있으나, 약축 접합 형식에 대한 연구는 거의 없는 실정이다. 또한 현재 국내에서는 시공성을 고려하여 기존의 브라켓형식 용접 접합부를 선호하고 있으나, 용접량이 많아 취성적인 거동이 우려되며 과대 설계된 경향이 있다. 본 연구의 실험 결과에서 기존 브라켓 형식 용접접합은 용접량이 과도한 것으로 나타났으며, 기둥 웨브와 보의 웨브의 용접은 불필요한 것으로 판단된다. 그리고 본 연구에서 제안한 새로운 기둥-보 약축 접합형식들에 대한 실험 결과에서 기존 브라켓형식 용접접합보다 우수한 내력 및 연성을 보유하여 구조적으로 안전함을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper proposes an automated procedure for optimum seismic design of reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures. This procedure combines a smart pre-processing using a Tree Classification Method (TCM) and a nonlinear optimization technique. First, the TCM automatically creates sections database and assigns sections to structural members. Subsequently, a real valued model of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is employed in solving the optimization problem. Numerical examples on design optimization of three low- to high-rise RC frame structures under earthquake loads are presented with and without considering strong column-weak beam (SCWB) constraint. Results demonstrate the effectiveness of the TCMin seismic design optimization of the structures.

This paper proposes Headed bar as reinforcement of beam-column joint, and proves seismic performance and reduction of reinforcement congestion. In these case, the use of Headed bars have obvious advantages. The greatest benefit of using Headed bars is not only improved structural performance of beam-column joints, but also the ease of fabrication, construction, and placement. Three-dimensional finite element analysis model is compared with test program which was fulfilled by the proposed model with Headed bar. Also, the plastic hinge region is relocated to the center of the longitudinal beam length according to the strong column-weak beam design philosophy, so Headed bar is used as the joint reinforcement. Therefore, this paper presents results of a computer analysis of a practical solution for relocating potential beam plastic hinge regions by the placing of straight - Headed bar.

Reinforced concrete frame buildings in regions of low to moderate seismicity are typically designed only for gravity loads with non-seismic detailing provisions of the code. These buildings possess strong beam-weak column, which brings about the brittle structural performance like the column sidesway failure mechanism during the strong lateral load. The objective of this paper is to enhance the column strength and deformation capacity for reconfiguring the structural failure mode by averting a column soft-story collapse and moving to a more ductile beam-sides way mechanism suing new reinforcing materials. Aramid fiber sheet and reinforcing rod-composite materials was used for this purpose. The column was modeled by the 2/3 scale experimental specimen retested. According to the concept of the capacity design, the damaged column was strengthened by the column jacketing using new reinfocing materials such as rod-composite materials. In conclusion, the improvement of the flexural strength is observed and the capacity of the energy dissipation and the ductility is enhanced, too.

본 연구의 목적은 보항복형 비가새 골조의 $P-{\Delta}$영향을 실험적 방법을 통하여 조사하는데 있다. 이를 위하여 4개의 1층 1스팬의 보항복형 비가새 골조에 대한 가력실험을 실시하였다. 실험의 변수로는 기둥의 강성과 축력비를 적용하였다. 실험결과 저축력 상태의 보항복형 비가새 골조에서는 축력의 정량적인 크기가 $P-{\Delta}$효과로서 골조의 안정성에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 최대수평하중은 기둥의 강성과 지점 회전강성에 비례하여 증가하며 저축력상태의 보항복형 비가새 골조는 붕괴가구 형성이 비교적 안정적인 상태에서 이루어짐을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 한계상태설계기준의 $B_2$ 계수는 골조의 비탄성거동시 $P-\Delta$효과를 적절히 고려하지 못하는 것으로 판단된다.

This study presents an experimental investigation on six beam-column joint specimens under the lateral cyclic loading. The aim was to explore the effectiveness of steel fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) in reducing the transverse shear stirrups in beam-column joints of the reinforced concrete (RC) frames with strong-columns and weak-beams. Two RC and four SFRC specimens with different types of reinforcement detailing and steel fibers of volume fraction in the range of 0.75-1.5% were tested under gradually increasing cyclic displacements. The main parameters investigated were lateral load-resisting capacity, hysteresis response, energy dissipation capacity, stiffness degradation, viscous damping variation, and mode of failure. Test results showed that the diagonally bent configuration of beam longitudinal bars in the beam-column joints resulted in the shear failure at the joint region against the flexural failure of beams having straight bar configurations. However, all SFRC specimens exhibited similar lateral strength, energy dissipation potential and mode of failure even in the absence of transverse steel in the beam-column joints. Finally, a methodology has been proposed to compute the shear strength of SFRC beam-column joints under the lateral loading condition.

Masonry infills are normally considered as non-structural elements in design practice, therefore, the interaction between the bounding frame and the strength contribution of masonry infills is commonly ignored in the seismic analysis work of the RC frames. However, a number of typical RC frames with irregular distributed masonry infills have suffered from undesirable weak-story failure in major earthquakes, which indicates that ignoring the influence of masonry infills may cause great seismic collapse risk of RC frames. This paper presented the investigation on the risk of seismic collapse of RC frames with irregularly distributed masonry infills through a large number of nonlinear time history analyses (NTHAs). Based on the results of NTHAs, seismic fragility curves were developed for RC frames with various distribution patterns of masonry infills. It was found that the existence of masonry infills generally reduces the collapse risk of the RC frames under both frequent happened and very strong earthquakes, however, the severe irregular distribution of masonry infills, such as open ground story scenario, results in great risk of forming a weak story failure. The strong-column weak-beam (SCWB) ratio has been widely adopted in major seismic design codes to control the potential of weak story failures, where a SCWB ratio value about 1.2 is generally accepted as the lower limit. In this study, the effect of SCWB ratio on inter-story drift distribution was also parametrically investigated. It showed that improving the SCWB ratio of the RC frames with irregularly distributed masonry infills can reduce inter-story drift concentration index under earthquakes, therefore, prevent weak story failures. To achieve the same drift concentration index limit of the bare RC frame with SCWB ratio of about 1.2, which is specified in ACI318-14, the SCWB ratio of masonry-infilled RC frames should be no less than 1.5. For the open ground story scenario, this value can be as high as 1.8.

건축물의 안전한 내진설계를 위해서는 층간변위비 뿐만 아니라 부재에 요구되는 소성변형을 평가하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 복잡한 비선형해석 없이 탄성해석을 사용하여 강기둥-약보로 설계된 철골 특수모멘트골조의 보에 요구되는 소성변형을 평가하는 간편한 방법을 개발하였다. 개발한 방법은 탄성해석 결과를 근거로 모멘트 재분배, 기둥 단면치수 및 보 소성힌지 이동, 패널존 변형, 중력하중, 변형경화 거동 등을 고려하여 보의 소성변형각을 직접적으로 예측한다. 또한 가새골조 또는 코어벽 등 횡력 저항구조와 모멘트골조의 상호 작용인 로킹 효과 고려한다. 검증을 위하여 강기둥-약보로 설계된 6층 특수모멘트골조에 제안된 방법을 적용하여 보의 소성변형각을 예측하고, 그 결과를 비선형 해석 결과와 비교하였다. 검증 결과, 제안된 방법은 설계 변수에 따른 보의 소성변형각을 합리적으로 예측하는 것으로 나타났다.

Beam-column joints are highly vulnerable locations which are to be designed for high ductility in order to take care of unexpected lateral forces such as wind and earthquake. Previous investigations reveal that the addition of steel fibres to concrete improves its ductility significantly. Also, due to presence of slab the strength and ductility of the beam increases considerably and ignoring the effect of slab can lead to underestimation of beam capacity and defiance of strong column weak beam concept. The influence of addition of steel fibres on the strength and behaviour of steel fibre reinforced high performance concrete (SFRHPC) interior beam-column-slab joints was investigated experimentally. The specimens were subjected to reverse cyclic loading. The variable considered was the volume fraction of crimped steel fibres i.e., 0%, 0.5% and 1.0%. The results show that the addition of steel fibres improves the first crack load, strength, ductility, energy absorption capacity and initial stiffness of the beam.

Due to functional requirements, SRC column-RC beam abnormal joints with characteristics of strong beam weak column, variable column section, unequal beam height and staggered height exist in the Steel reinforced concrete (SRC) frame-bent main building structure of thermal power plant (TPP). This paper presents the experimental results of these abnormal joints through cyclic loading tests on five specimens with scaling factor of 1/5. The staggered height and whether adding H-shaped steel in beam or not were changing parameters of specimens. The failure patterns, bearing capacity, energy dissipation and ductile performance were analyzed. In addition, the stress mechanism of the abnormal joint was discussed based on the diagonal strut model. The research results showed that the abnormal exterior joints occurred shear failure and column end hinge flexural failure; reducing beam height through adding H-shaped steel in the beam of abnormal exterior joint could improve the crack resistance and ductility; the abnormal interior joints with different staggered heights occurred column ends flexural failure; the joint with larger staggered height had the higher bearing capacity and stiffness, but lower ductility. The concrete compression strut mechanism is still applicable to the abnormal joints in TPP, but it is affected by the abnormal characteristics.
