This study presents the effective stiffness-based optimal technique to control Quantitatively lateral drift for shear wall-frame structure system using sensitivity analysis. To this end, the element stiffness matrices are constituted to solve the compatibility problem of displacement degree of freedom between the frame and shear wall. Also, lateral drift constraint to introduce the approximation concept that can preserve the generality of the mathematical programming and can effectively solve the large scaled problems is established. And, the section property relationships for shear wall and frame members are considered in order to reduce the number of design variables and differentiate easily the stiffness matrices. Specifically, constant-shape assumption which is uniformly varying in size during optimal process is applied in frame structure. The thickness or length of shear wall can be changed depending on user's intent. Two types of 20 story shear wall-frame structure system are presented to illustrate the features of the stiffness-based optimal design technique.

In this paper, the seismic behavior of shear wal-frame systems is analyzed. The governing equations of the wall-frame systems with outrigger truss are formulated through the continuum approach and the whole structure is idealized as a shear-flexural cantileverwith rotational spring. The effect of shear deformation and flexural deformation of the wall-frame and outrigger trusses are considered and incorporated in the formulation of the wall-frame structures with and without outriggers are compared by using finite element analysis incorporated with the Newmark-${\beta}$ method. Numerical results are obtained and compared with the finite element package MIDAS. The proposed method is found to be simple and efficient, and provides reason ably accurate results in the early design stage of tall building structures.

This research purposed to study a structural effect on curtailment of upper shear wall in frame-shear wall structures, using MIDAS-Gen. In this study, the analysis variables were the story number of curtailment of upper shear wall, change of column section in every 2 stories and change of shear wall thickness in every 2 stories. In order to analyse a structural effect on curtailment of upper shear wall in frame-shear wall structures, we studied the distribution of shear force and overturning moment according to curtailment of shear wall, the inflection point of shear wall from shear force/overturning moment and the lateral stiffness. The results of study proposed the quantitative influence that the curtailment of upper shear wall in frame-shear wall structures had on the structural performance such as lateral stiffness. Furthermore, it is verified that the results of study can be very helpful in catching the materials on the structure design for a reasonable frame-shear wall system.

According to the 「Guidelines of Structural Design for Piloti Building」 of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (2018), the natural period of middle and low rise building of upper-walled lower frame type, such as the domestic multiplex house in piloti style, is suggested for safety to apply the existing code formula of the wall structure. However, the current code formula of the wall structure was provided based on actual measurement of high-rise wall-type structures that mainly exhibit bending behavior. So it is considered that it is not suitable for a piloti-type house with four stories or less, where the wall behaves in shear. See also Park et al. (2000) confirmed that the effect of the lower frame part is greater than that of the upper wall part in the natural period of complex structures with 10 or more floors through analytical studies. Therefore, in this study, in order to examine the effect of the lower frame on the natural period of the middle and low-rise piloti structure, the estimation of natural period by the finite element analysis, approximation formula and ccurrent code formula was performed for the target structures with the shear and flexural stiffness of the upper wall and the shear stiffness of the lower frame as variables. As result, it was found that the change in the shear stiffness of the lower frame had a greater effect on the natural period of the whole building than the change in the bending or shear stiffness of the upper wall.

After obtaining tensile and compressive stiffness as well as shear stiffness of elastomeric seismic isolator experimentally, those stiffness were modeled analytically using nonlinear computer program. To induce tensile stress due to overturning in the seismic isolators of an isolated frame for horizontal force, free vibration simulations generated by large initial displacement were conducted. Since elastomeric seismic isolator is weak for tensile stress, the axial stiffness of isolators shall be included properly in the analytical model to evaluate the uplift phenomenon of elastomeric seismic isolator.

High-rise residential buildings these days tend to adopt a building frame system as primary earthquake resisting structural system for some architectural reasons. But there exist several ambiguities in designing such building frame systems according to current codes with regards to : the effective stiffness property of RC cracked section in static and dynamic analyses, analytical model to evaluate story drift ratio, and deformation compatibility requirements of frames. The comparative study for these issues by appling KBC 2005 to a typical building frame system shows that demands of member strength and story drift ratio can be different significantly depending on engineer's Interpretation and application of code requirements. And a building frame system can be noneconomical, compared with the dual system, because of higher demands on strength or ductility in both frames and shear walls.

In a shear wall-frame structural system, the structural response is determined by the interaction between the shear wall in bending mode and the frame in shear mode. In order to effectively consider these characteristics of a shear wall-frame structure, the simplified numerical model using the T-shape rigid body was suggested in the previous study. Based on the previously proposed model, an efficient numerical model for a wall-frame structure with an eccentric core has been proposed in this study. To this end, the previously proposed 2D model is extended to the 3D model and it is enhanced by considering torsion effects. As a result, the enhanced model can be applied to the analysis of a wall-frame structure with an eccentric core as well as a centric core.

최근 전 세계적으로 지진의 발생 빈도가 증가하며 그 규모도 점차 커지는 경향을 보이고 있다. 대형지진의 발생 시 저층 구조물의 붕괴로 인한 인명 및 사회, 경제적 피해가 두드러짐에 따라 기존 저층 구조물의 내진보강기법에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행 중인 추세이다. 우리나라의 경우 강도증가형 내진보강공법이 주를 이루고 있어 다양한 내진보강기법의 개발 및 적용이 필요한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 지진입력하중 저감형 내진보강기법으로서 강재댐퍼시스템을 제안하여 구조적 성능을 파악하고, 이를 적용한 보강 실험체와 비보강 실험체를 제작하여 정적가력실험을 통하여 그 성능을 비교하였다. 제안된 강재댐퍼시스템은 입력에너지를 소산시키는 내부의 슬릿형 댐퍼와 이를 지지하는 기둥 및 외부 프레임으로 구성되며, 내부 댐퍼는 먼저 항복하여 에너지를 소산시키기 위하여 지지기둥 및 프레임에 사용된 강재보다 강성 및 강도가 적게 계획되었다. 강재댐퍼의 성능실험 결과, 비교적 안정적 거동을 하며, 강성과 강도 및 에너지 흡수능력이 우수하게 나타났다. 보강 및 비보강 실험체의 골조는 기존 학교 건축물의 표준도면을 기준으로 하여 골조의 일부를 대상으로 60% 축소율을 적용하여 계획하였으며, 보강 실험체는 미리 제작된 강재댐퍼시스템을 골조 내에 설치하여 에폭시 주입법으로 부착시공 하였다. 보강 및 비보강 골조 실험체의 정적가력 실험결과 비보강 실험체는 기둥의 휨 항복 후 변형의 증가에 따라 휨 및 전단 균열이 증가하면서 최종적으로 기둥이 전단파괴 되었으며, 보강 실험체는 비보강 실험체에 비하여 기둥 및 보의 균열이 적고, 골조에 골고루 분포되어 파괴 규모가 감소하였다. 최대 강도면에서 보강 실험체는 비보강 실험체에 비하여 약 3.4배 우수하였으며, 초기강성은 약 7배 가량 유리한 것으로 평가되어 제안된 강재댐퍼시스템이 강도면에서 우수한 성능을 나타냄을 알 수 있었다. 또한 두 실험체의 기둥 주근 및 띠철근의 변형률을 비교한 결과, 비보강 실험체는 대부분의 철근이 항복하여 큰 변형을 일으킨 반면, 보강실험체에서는 철근의 항복현상이 나타나지 않았고 댐퍼가 항복을 하면서 큰 변형을 일으켰다. 이를 통해 지진하중 입력 시 댐퍼에서 입력 에너지를 흡수하여 큰 하중을 부담하며, 기존의 구조부재에는 입력 에너지가 낮아 손상이 보다 적게 발생함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, the effect of the masonry infill walls on the seismic performance of the reinforced concrete(RC) frames with non-seismic details was evaluated through the static test of an masonry infilled RC frame sub-assemblage with non-seismic details of real size, and comparison with the test results of the RC frame sub-assemblage with non-seismic details. As the test results, lots of cracks occurred on the surface of the entire frame due to the compression of the masonry infilled wall, and the beam-column joint finally collapsed with the expansion of the shear crack and buckling(exposure) of the reinforcement. On the other hand, the stiffness of the shear force-story drift relationship decreased due to the wall sliding crack and column flexural cracks, and the strength finally decreased by around 60% of the maximum strength. The damage that concentrated on the upper and lower parts of columns was dispersed in the entire frame such as columns, a beam, and beam-column joints due to the wall, and the specimen was finally collapsed by expansion of the shear crack of the joint, not the shear crack of the column. Also, the stiffness of RC frame increased by 12.42 times and the yield strength by 3.63 times, while the story drift at maximum strength decreased by 0.18 times.

An experimental study was performed to investigate the maximum energy dissipation and the ductility capacity of shear-dominated steel plate walls with thin web plates. Three specimens of three-story plate walls with thin web plates were tested. The parameters for the test specimens were the aspect ratio of the web plate and the shear strength of the column. A concentrically braced frame and a moment-resisting frme were a also tested for comparison. The steel plate walls exhibited much better ductility and energy dissipation capacity than the concentrically braced frame and the moment-resisting frame. The results showed that unlike other structural systems, the sh as well as strength, and can therefore be used as an effective earthquake-resisting system. A method of predicting the energy dissipation capacity of a steel plate wall was proposed.
