본 연구에서는 비보강 조적조에 대한 부재 비선형거동 및 비탄성힌지 속성을 고려할 수 있는 midas GEN Ver.741(해외판) 프로그램에 의한 비보강 조적벽체의 푸쉬오버 해석결과와 실험결과와의 비교를 통하여 비보강 조적조 건축물의 전단강도평가를 비롯하여 내진성능평가를 위한 역량스펙트럼 해석 프로그램을 검증하고자 한다. midas GEN Ver.741(해외판) 프로그램의 사용성 검증을 위하여 조적벽체의 축하중, 형상비, 쌓기방법(두께) 그리고 개구부 유무를 변수로 한 10개의 비보강 조적벽체의 전단강도를 비교 평가한다. 비보강 조적벽체에 대한 실험결과와 해석결과를 비교한 결과 각 시험체별 전단강도 값이 비교적 유사한 것으로 나타나며 국내 기존 비보강 조적조 건축물에 대한 해석방법으로 본 프로그램의 사용이 가능한 것으로 평가되었다.

One of the most important processes to accurately predict structural responses is to evaluate accurate structural dynamic characteristics using finite element(FE) models. The numerical structural dynamic characteristics usually show considerable discrepancies with the measured ones because structural details are commonly simplified in the FE models. To identify such discrepancies, FE models of them have been calibrated using the measured dynamic characteristics in previous researches. In this study, the dynamic characteristics were measured for a historic cathedral and the FE model of it was calibrated using the measured results as a reference. Finally, a procedure of the FE model construction for the unreinforced masonry cathedral were tentatively proposed.

The purpose of this study is to first evaluate the seismic behavior of ageing arch bridges by using the Intensity Measure - based demand and DCFD format, which is referred to as the fragility-hazard format. Then, an investigation is performed for their seismic vulnerability. Analytical models are created for bridges concerning different features and these models are subjected to Incremental Dynamic Analysis (IDA) analysis using a set of 22 earthquake records. The hazard curve and results of IDA analysis are employed to evaluate the return period of exceeding the limit states in the IM-based probabilistic performance-based context. Subsequently, the fragility-hazard format is used to assess factored demand, factored capacity, and the ratio of the factored demand to the factored capacity of the models with respect to different performance objectives. Finally, the vulnerability curves are obtained for the investigated bridges in terms of the loss ratio. The results revealed that decreasing the span length of the unreinforced arch bridges leads to the increase in the return period of exceeding various limit states and factored capacity and decrease in the displacement demand, the probability of failure, the factored demand, as well as the factored demand to factored capacity ratios, loss ratio, and seismic vulnerability. Finally, it is derived that the probability of the need for rehabilitation increases by an increase in the span length of the models.

This paper presents finite element (FE) based pushover analysis of a reinforced concrete structure with a two-leaf cavity wall (TLCW) to estimate the performance level of this structure. In addition to this, an unreinforced masonry (URM) model was selected for comparison. Simulations and analyses of these structures were performed using the DIANA FE program. The mentioned structures were selected as two storeys and two bays. The dimensions of the structures were scaled 1:1.5 according to the Cauchy Froude similitude law. A shake table experiment was implemented on the reinforced concrete structure with the two-leaf cavity wall (TLCW) at the National Civil Engineering Laboratory (LNEC) in Lisbon, Portugal. The model that simulates URM was not experimentally studied. This structure was modelled in the same manner as the TLCW. The purpose of this virtual model is to compare the respective performances. Two nonlinear analyses were performed and compared with the experimental test results. These analyses were carried out in two phases. The research addresses first the analysis of a structure with only reinforced concrete elements, and secondly the analysis of the same structure with reinforced concrete elements and infill walls. Both researches consider static loading and pushover analysis. The experimental pushover curve was plotted by the envelope of the experimental curve obtained on the basis of the shake table records. Crack patterns, failure modes and performance curves were plotted for both models. Finally, results were evaluated on the basis of the current regulation ASCE/SEI 41-06.

In recent years, interest is growing in the engineering community on the experimental assessment and the theoretical prediction of the out-of-plane (OOP) seismic response of unreinforced masonry (URM) infills, which are widespread in Reinforced Concrete (RC) buildings in Europe and in the Mediterranean area. In the literature, some mechanical-based models for the prediction of the entire OOP force-displacement response have been formulated and proposed. However, the small number of experimental tests currently available has not allowed, up to current times, a robust and reliable evaluation of the predictive capacity of such response models. To enrich the currently available experimental database, six pure OOP tests on URM infills in RC frames were carried out at the Department of Structures for Engineering and Architecture of the University of Naples Federico II. Test specimens were built with the same materials and were different only for the thickness of the infill walls and for the number of their edges mortared to the confining elements of the RC frames. In this paper, the results of these experimental tests are briefly recalled. The main aim of this study is comparing the experimental response of test specimens with the prediction of mechanical models presented in the literature, in order to assess their effectiveness and contribute to the definition of a robust and reliable model for the evaluation of the OOP seismic response of URM infill walls.

이 연구에서는 강봉 트러스 시스템으로 보강된 조적벽체의 면내·외 거동에 대한 내진성능을 평가하였다. 강봉 트러스 시스템 보강은 무보강 조적벽체 1면에 2개의 강봉 트러스 시스템 유닛을 배치하였다. 면내 거동에 대한 실험결과는 무보강 조적벽체 및 벽체 1면에 1개의 강봉 트러스 시스템 보강된 조적벽체와 비교하였으며, 면외 거동에 대한 실험결과는 무보강 조적벽체와 비교하였다. 실험 결과, 강봉 트러스 시스템으로 보강된 조적벽체의 면내·외 초기 강성은 무보강 조적벽체에 비해 각각 1.9배 및 2.3배 높았으며, 면내·외 최대 내력은 각각 1.8배 및 1.9배 높았다. 특히 강봉 트러스 시스템으로 보강된 조적벽체의 면내·외 에너지 소산능력은 무보강 조적벽체에 비해 각각 6.1배 및 2.4배 높았으며, 등가 감쇠비는 각각 5.1배 및 1.2배 높았다. 즉, 강봉 트러스 시스템은 무보강 조적벽체의 면내 방향으로의 내진성능 향상뿐만 아니라 면외 방향으로의 내진성능 향상에도 유리할 것으로 판단된다.

Consequence-Based Engineering (CBE) is a new paradigm proposed by the Mid-America Earthquake Center (MAE) to guide evaluation and rehabilitation of building structures and networks in areas of low probability - high consequence earthquakes such as the central region of the U.S. The principal objective of CBE is to minimize consequences by prescribing appropriate intervention procedures for a broad range of structures and systems, in consultation with key decision makers. One possible intervention option for rehabilitating unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings, widely used for essential facilities in Mid-America, is passive energy dissipation (PED). After the CBE process is described, its application in the rehabilitation of vulnerable URM building construction in Mid-America is illustrated through the use of PED devices attached to flexible timber floor diaphragms. It is shown that PED's can be applied to URM buildings in situations where floor diaphragm flexibility can be controlled to reduce both out-of-plane and in-plane wall responses and damage. Reductions as high as 48% in roof displacement and acceleration can be achieved as demonstrated in studies reported below.

본 연구의 목적은 비선형 동적해석을 통한 국내 비보강 조적조의 내진성능을 평가하는데 있다. 보다 정밀한 내진성능 평가를 위해 조적벽체의 파괴모드를 고려한 비선형 이력모델을 이용하고자 하나, 선행연구의 비선형 이력모델은 정적반복가력해석에 대한 검증만이 수행되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 진동대실험과 동적해석 결과를 비교하여 제안한 비보강 조적조 비선형 해석모델의 신뢰성을 검증한 다음, 국내 비보강 조적조 건축물의 비선형 동적해석을 수행하고 결과를 분석하여 내진성능을 평가하였다. 그 결과, 1층의 조적조 건축물의 경우 개구부율에 관계없이 비교적 지진피해가 작은 반면, 2층 이상의 국내 비보강 조적조 건축물의 대부분이 국내에 발생가능한 지진에 취약하였다.
