The earthquake-resistant structural systems have to ensure the sufficient stiffness and ductility for the stability. For those purposes, recently, the performance design concept to increase the degree of absorbed energy level of structures has been proposed. One practical way of the performance design in the spatial structures is to apply the isolation system to boundary parts of roof system and sub-structure to obtain the target performance. So, it is necessary to examine the characteristics of dynamic behavior of spatial structures governed by higher modes rather than lower modes different from the cases of high rise buildings. The objectives of this paper are to develop the equivalent model to simplify the analytical processes and to investigate the dynamic behavior of roof system according to the mass and the stiffness of sub-structures as a fundamental study of performance design for the spatial structures.

Although retrofitting and strengthening reinforced concrete (RC) columns by wrapping fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have become a popular technique in civil engineering, the study on reinforced high-strength concrete (HSC) columns is still not sufficient. The objective of these companion papers is to investigate the mechanical properties of reinforced HSC square columns confined by aramid FRP (AFRP) jackets under concentric compressive loading. In the part I of these companion papers, an experiment was conducted on 54 confined RC specimens and nine unconfined plain specimens, the considered parameters were the concrete strength, the thickness of AFRP jackets, and the form of AFRP wrapping. The experimental process and results are presented in detail. Subsequently, some discussions on the confinement effect, failure modes, strength, and ductility of the columns are carried out.

Recently, there are much concerns about new and innovative transverse materials which could be used instead of conventional transverse steel in reinforced concrete bridge piers. FRP materials could be substituted for conventional transverse steel because of their sufficient strength, light weight, easy fabrication, and useful applicability to any shapes of pier sections, such as rectangular or circular sections. The objective of this research is to evaluate the seismic performance of reinforced concrete bridge pier specimens with FRP transverse reinforcement by means of the Quasi-Static test. In the first task, test columns were made using FRP rope, but these specimens appeared to fail at low displacement ductility levels due to insufficient confinement of strand extension itself. Therefore, the second task was to evaluate the seismic performance of test specimens transversely confined with FRP band. Although FRP banded specimens showed lower seismic performance than the specimen with spiral reinforcing steel, it satisfied with the response modification factor, 3, required for the single column of Korea bridge roadway design code. It was concluded that FRP band could be efficiently substituted for conventional reinforcing steel.

가새골조 성능을 개선하기 위해 연결부 (거싯 플레이트) 강도, 강성, 연성이 골조 디자인에 직접적으로 고려되어야 한다. 연결부의 강도는 지진력에 저항하도록 디자인 되어야하고 필요한 골조시스템의 연성을 확보하는데 기여해야한다. 그리고 연결부의 강성은 구조요소와 연결부의 동적 반응과 변위 요구에 영향을 준다. 이 논문에서 지난 실험 결과를 이용하여 거싯 플레이트 연결부에 대한 현 디자인 모델을 검토하고 평가한다. 현 디자인 모델은 연결부 디자인 가이드라인을 주기엔 적절하지 못하고 실제 거싯 플레이트의 응력과 변위 상태는 비선형이고 굉장히 복잡하다. 구조 디자이너들은 시스템과 연결부의 성능을 대략적으로 예측하기 위해 보와 기둥을 포함한 단순한 모델을 원한다. 이를 위해 단순화한 디자인 모델이 개발되고 평가된다. 이 모델은 비교적 정확하고 신뢰성 있는 연결부 강성 평가를 제공한다.

In this study, we will develop a hybrid cross-sectional shape of steel inserted type glued-laminated timber that can improve the strength of structural glued-laminated timber and maximize the ductility by using steel plate with excellent tensile and deformation ability. A total of three specimens were fabricated and the flexural performance test was carried out to evaluate the structural performance of the steel inserted type glued-laminated timber. In order to compare the effect of steel inserted glued-laminated timber, one structural glued-laminated timber test specimen composed of pure wood was manufactured. In addition, in order to evaluate the adhesion performance of the steel inserted, one each of a screw joint test specimen and a polyurethane joint test specimen was prepared. As a result, all the specimens showed the initial crack in the finger joint near the force point. This has been shown to be a cause of crack diffusion and strength degradation. The use of finger joints in the maximum moment section is considered to affect the strength and ductility of the glued-laminated timber beam. Polyurethane-adhesive steel inserted glued-laminated timber showed fully-composite behavior with little horizontal separation between the steel plate and glued-laminated timber until the maximum load was reached. This method has been shown to exhibit sufficient retention bending performance.

Concentrically Braced Frames (CBFs) are commonly used in the construction of steel structures because of their ease of implementation, rigidity, low lateral displacement, and cost-effectiveness. However, the principal disadvantage of this kind of braced frame is the inability to provide deformation capacity (ductility) and buckling of bracing elements before yielding. This paper aims to present a novel Composite Buckling Restrained Fuse (CBRF) to be utilized as a bracing segment in concentrically braced frames that allows higher ductility and removes premature buckling. The proposed CBRF with relatively small dimensions is an enhancement on the Reduced Length Buckling Restrained Braces (RL-BRBs), consists of steel core and additional tensile elements embedded in a concrete encasement. Employing tensile elements in this composite fuse with a new configuration enhances the energy dissipation efficiency and removes the tensile strength limitations that exist in bracing elements that contain RL-BRBs. Here, the optimal length of the CBRF is computed by considering the anticipated strain demand and the low-cyclic fatigue life of the core under standard loading protocol. An experimental program is conducted to explore the seismic behavior of the suggested CBRF compare with an RL-BRB specimen under gradually increased cyclic loading. Moreover, Hysteretic responses of the specimens are evaluated to calculate the design parameters such as energy dissipation potential, strength adjustment factors, and equivalent viscous damping. The findings show that the suggested fuse possess a ductile behavior with high energy absorption and sufficient resistance and a reasonably stable hysteresis response under compression and tension.

Shear walls have high stiffness and strength; however, they lack energy dissipation and repairability. In this study, an innovative slotted shear wall featuring vertical slots and steel energy dissipation connectors was developed. The ductility and energy dissipation of the shear wall were improved, while sufficient bearing capacity and structural stiffness were retained. Furthermore, the slotted shear wall does not support vertical forces, and thus it does not have to be arranged continuously along the height of the structure, leading to a much free arrangement of the shear wall. A frame-slotted shear wall structure that combines the conventional frame structure and the innovative shear wall was developed. To investigate the ductility and hysteretic behavior of the slotted shear wall, finite element models of two walls with different steel connectors were built, and pushover and quasi-static analyses were conducted. Numerical analysis results indicated that the deformability and energy dissipation were guaranteed only if the steel connectors yielded before plastic hinges in the wall limbs were formed. Finally, a modified D-value method was proposed to estimate the bearing capacity and stiffness of the slotted shear wall. In this method, the wall limbs are analogous to columns and the connectors are analogous to beams. Results obtained from the modified D-value method were compared with those obtained from the finite element analysis. It was found that the internal force and stiffness estimated with the modified D-value method agreed well with those obtained from the finite element analysis.

노후 교각은 내진설계가 적용되지 않아 소성힌지구역에 겹침이음이 대다수 존재한다. 철근부식은 철근 단면적 감소 및 겹침이음부의 거동저하를 유발하여 교각의 내진성능을 저하시킨다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 노후교각의 특성에 따라 철근부식, 겹침이음, 내진설계 및 내진 보강 여부를 고려하여 실험체를 설계 및 제작하고 실험을 통해 그 영향을 조사하였다. 실험결과, 겹침이음 또는 철근부식은 변위연성도를 감소시킨다. 내진설계 상세 또는 강판 내진보강을 적용하면 충분한 변위연성도가 확보됨을 확인하였다. 모든 비내진실험체는 소성힌지구역 내의 횡철근 겹침이음부의 풀림으로 인해 주철근 좌굴과 심부콘크리트 압축파쇄가 발생하였다. 내진설계된 실험체는 철근부식에 의한 소성힌지구역 내 횡철근의 단면감소와 갈고리 풀림에 의해 주철근 좌굴 및 심부콘크리트 압축파쇄가 발생하였다.

In this study, a parametric study was performed considering material properties of concrete, material properties of steel, the number of longitudinal reinforcement (reinforcement ratio), CFRP ply orientations, a number of layers as variables by using ABAQUS. Firstly, the parameters used in the Hashin failure criteria were verified using four coupon tests of CFRP. Secondly, the numerical models of the beams strengthened by CFRP were verified using five experimental data. Finally, eighty numerical models and eighty analytic calculations were developed to investigate the effects of the aforementioned variables. The results revealed that in the case of using fibrous polymer to prevent shear failure, the variables related to reinforced concrete significantly affected the behavior of specimens, whereas the variables related to CFRP composite have a slight effect on the behavior of the specimens. As a result of numerical analysis, while the increase in the longitudinal tensile and compression reinforcement, load bearing capacity increases between 23.6%-70.7% and 5.6%-12.2%, respectively. Increase in compressive strength (29 MPa to 35 MPa) leads to a slight increase in the load-carrying capacity of the specimens between 4.6% and 7.2%. However, the decrease in the compressive strength (29 MPa to 20 MPa) significantly affected (between 6.4% and 8.1% decrease observed) the behavior of the specimens. As the yield strength increases or decreases, the capacity of specimens increase approximately 27.1% or decrease 12.1%. The effects of CFRP ply orientation results have been obtained as a negligible well approximately 3.7% difference. An increasing number of CFRP layers leads to almost no effect (approximately 2.8%) on the behavior of the specimen. Finally, according to the numerical analysis, the ductility values obtained between 4.0 and 6.9 indicate that the beams have sufficient ductility capacity.

지진다발 지역에서는 철근콘크리트 기둥의 단면을 합리적으로 구속함과 동시에 횡보강 띠철근의 세심한 배근등이 요구된다. 이러한 요구조건을 만족시키기 위한 보편적인 횡보강근 사용의 문제점으로는 높은 체적비(high volumetric ratio), 조밀한 간격(close spacings), 겹침(overlapping of hoops), 구부림(bends), 구부림 연장 (bend extensions), 시공상의 어려움과 콘크리트 타설상의 문제 등이다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 한 방법으로는 요구되는 횡보강근의 체적비, 배역, 크기 등에 따라 이를 기조립, 용접하여 사용하는 것이다. 용접된 횡보강근의 사용은 겹침과 구부림, 구부림의 연장 등이 필요하지 않기 때문에 조립이 간편하고, 축방향 철근의 지지에 적합한 치수의 정확성과 재료를 절감시킬 수 있다. 더우기, 단면 내 횡보강 철근의 간격이 조밀해짐으로써, 코아 콘크리트 주변의 구속력을 균등히 분배시키게 되고, 이에 따라 코아 콘크리트의 거동을 향상시키는 결과를 얻을 수가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 이러한 용접 띠철근으로 보강된 철근콘크리트 기둥의 역학적 거동을 실험적으로 규명함과 동시에 철근콘크리트 기둥의 내진성능 향상을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 그 결과 횡보강근의 강도와 연성에 영향을 미치지 않도록 용접됨과 동시에 충분한 신률을 가진다면, 용접된 격자형 횡보강근은 기둥의 띠철근으로써 사용가능한 것으로 판단된다. 특히, 용접된 격자형 횡보강근이 유효하게 거동하기 위하여는 1) 용접된 접합부위의 강도가 보강근의 모재강도 이상 2) 신률이 4% 이상이어야 할 필요가 있다.
