Seismic performance of coupling beams not designed for ductility is examined. Eight 1:4 scale coupling beam specimens, with seven reinforced concrete sections and one composite section, were tested under cycles of push-pull action. Characteristics of the specimens include moderate shear span ratio in the range of 2.5-3.5, high main reinforcement ratio at 3-4% and small to large stirrup spacing with 90- degree hooks. All the reinforced concrete specimens failed in a brittle manner. Displacement ductility of specimens with large stirrup spacing (${\geq}$140 mm) is in the range of 3 to 5. Seismic performance of the specimens is also examined using the ultimate drift angle and the amount of energy dissipated. Correlating the test data, an empirical relationship is proposed to estimate the ultimate drift angle of a class of coupling beams considered in the study not designed for ductility.

건물에 요구되는 성능수준에 대해 명확히 명시하지 못하는 현행의 설계법에 대한 대안으로 성능중심설계법의 필요성이 부각되고 있다. 미국과 일본 등의 선진국에서는 이미 성능중심설계의 기반을 구축하기 위한 연구가 진행중이며 최근 국내에서도 성능설계에 관한 연구가 진행된 바 있으나 아직 전반적인 관련기술이 낙후되어 있는 실정이다. 한편 지진동에 의한 수평력 작용시 건물의 기둥, 특히 하층부의 외주는 전단휨과 함께 전도모멘트에 의한 변동축력을 받게 된다. 이러한 변동축력은 부재의 국부좌굴시점 및 열화역 이후의 종국거동에 영향을 미칠 가능성이 크다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 변동축력을 받는 기둥부재 실험을 실시하여 변동축력으로 인한 국부좌굴 시점 및 부재의 종국거동 등의 구조성능에 대하여 분석하였다. 또한 이를 바탕으로 강구조 건축물의 성능중심설계에 대한 성능한계를 층간변위각의 형태로 제안한 국내연구의 타당성을 검증하였다.

Steel-reinforced concrete (SRC) L-shaped column is the vertical load-bearing member with high spatial adaptability. The seismic behavior of SRC L-shaped column is complex because of their irregular cross sections. In this study, the hysteretic performance of six steel truss reinforced concrete L-shaped columns specimens under the combined loading of compression, bending, shear, and torsion was tested. There were two parameters, i.e., the moment ratio of torsion to bending (γ) and the aspect ratio (column length-to-depth ratio (φ)). The failure process, torsion-displacement hysteresis curves, and bending-displacement hysteresis curves of specimens were obtained, and the failure patterns, hysteresis curves, rigidity degradation, ductility, and energy dissipation were analyzed. The experimental research indicates that the failure mode of the specimen changes from bending failure to bending-shear failure and finally bending-torsion failure with the increase of γ. The torsion-displacement hysteresis curves were pinched in the middle, formed a slip platform, and the phenomenon of "load drop" occurred after the peak load. The bending-displacement hysteresis curves were plump, which shows that the bending capacity of the specimen is better than torsion capacity. The results show that the steel truss reinforced concrete L-shaped columns have good collapse resistance, and the ultimate interstory drift ratio more than that of the Chinese Code of Seismic Design of Building (GB50011-2014), which is sufficient. The average value of displacement ductility coefficient is larger than rotation angle ductility coefficient, indicating that the specimen has a better bending deformation resistance. The specimen that has a more regular section with a small φ has better potential to bear bending moment and torsion evenly and consume more energy under a combined action.
