Current torsional provisions focus n restricting torsional effect of asymmetric wall structures by proportioning strength of wall based on the traditional assumption that stiffness and strength are independent. Recent studies have pointed out that stiffness of structural wall is dependent on the strength. This implies that actual stiffness of walls can be determined only after torsional design is finished and current torsional provisions may result in significant errors. To overcome this shortcoming, this paper proposes deformation based torsional design for asymmetric wall structures. Contrary to the current torsional provisions, deformation-based torsional design uses displacement and rotation angle as design parameters and calculates base shear for inelastic torsional response directly. Main purpose of deformation based torsional design is not to restrict torsional response but to ensure intended torsional mechanism according to the capacity design concept. Because displacement and rotation angle can be used as performance criteria indicating performance level of asymmetric structures, this method can be applied to the performance based seismic design effectively.

본 논문은 직접 변위 설계법의 기본개념을 이용하여 비대칭 평면을 갖는 벽 식구조의 변위에 근거한 내진설계방법을 제안한다. 제안된 설계방법은 구조시스템의 각 벽체의 강도비와 강성비 및 목적 설계 변위를 결정하고, 직접 변위 설계법에 따라 설계하중은 구하는 과정으로 이루어진다. 탄성 영역에서는 강성 편심을, 비탄성 영역에서는 강도 편심을 주요한 설계변수로 사용하였다 성능에 기초한 내진설계의 개념에 따라 비대칭 평면을 갖는 구조물이 요구되는 성능 수준을 효과적으로 만족할 수 있도록 본 논문은 시스템의 비틀림 미케니즘과 각 벽체의 변형능력을 고려하였다. 제안된 설계방법을 이용하여 중진과 강진 지역에 대해 예제 구조물의 설계하중을 구하고, 최적의 설계방법을 제안하였다.

This study made progress about Demage Mechanism of Transition Section in Cut and Cover Tunnel. For this study, Inspection and test was carried out about Transition Section. After this process, Numerical Analysis was accomplished by 2D, 3D. A result of inspection and test, It couldn't find the reason why the upper slab Demage was detected. So 2D Numerical Analysis was conducted. It was analyzed that the Safety Factor(1.0) was satisfied in 2D. But, the result of 3D Numerical Analysis, The reason was found that the Demage on upper slab was caused by moment change. The Moment was changed by column interval transition. For Retrofitting, Column was added under slab in tunnel. It was found that the addition column decreased upper slab deformation. After this study, It could be find that are important 3D Numerical Analysis as well as 2D Numerical Analysis in case of Transition Section. This Study can help developing construction and maintenance about Tunnel. Finally, It's going to study Retrofitting plans which have minimum influence of Transition Section in Cut and Cover Tunnel.
