본 연구에서는 용접 수평헌치로 보강된 철골 모멘트 접합부의 내진설계법을 제시하고자 한다. 최근의 실험결과에 의하면 보의 하부를 수평헌치로 용접하는 방안은 취약한 내진성능이 드러나 기존 철골 모멘트 접합부의 내진보강이나 내진성능이 뛰어난 건물의 구축에 매우 효과적임을 알 수 있다. 용점 삼각헌치로 보강된 접합부의 설계법은 최근에 미국의 연구자들에 의해 제시된 바가 있다. 그러나 이 설계법은 응력 전달 메커니즘이 상이한 수평헌티 접합부의 설계에는 적용될수 없다. 본 논문에서는 우선 수평헌치와 보의 상호작용 및 변형의 적합 조건을 고려하여 도출된 단순화된 해석적 응력전달 모형을 간략히 기술한다. 이를 기초로 수평헌치 접합부의 단계별 내진 설계절차를 제안한다. 아울러 헌티단부의 응력집중을 줄이는데 매우 효과적인 디테일도 제시하고자 한다.

철골 모멘트 접합부를 헌치로서 보강할 경우 내진거동이 크게 증진됨이 최근의 실물대 시험에서 입증되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 헌치로서 보강된 철골 모멘트 접합부가 골조의 탄성 횡변위 거동에 미치는 영향을 해석적으로 평가하는 방안을 제시하였다. 즉 내부의 보-기둥 부분골조를 대상으로 기둥, 보 및 이중패널존에서 기인하는 탄성 횡변위 성분을 해석적으로 유도하였다. 핵심이 되는 내용은 헌치 보강시 생성되는 이중패널존의 전단변형을 고려하는 것이었다. 제시된 방안에 의한 예측치는 3차원 유한요소해석에 의한 결과와 잘 부합하였다. 본 연구에서 수행한 사례연구에 의할 때 헌치의 도입으로 패널존의 강성증대가 가장 현저하여서 패널존의 전단변형에서 기인하는 탄성 횡변위가 50%정도 감소되었다. 본 연구의 결과는 아직 잘 알려지지 않은 헌치 보강에 따른 부차효과(side effects)의 이해에 도움이 될 수 있을 것이다.

Recently a simplified design procedure as well as load transfer model for seismic steel moment connections with welded straight haunch have been proposed by Lee and Uang. Cyclic seismic testing was conducted to verify the proposed design procedure and to develop the details that will prevent the cracking at the haunch tip, where stress concentration was the highest. All the specimens thus designed effectively pushed plastic hinging away from the haunch tip and were able to develop satisfactory plastic rotation capacity of 0.04 radian with no fracture. A sloped edge combined with drilling a hole near the haunch tip or a pair of stiffeners(partially or fully) extended from the beam web successfully prevented the crack initiation at the haunch tip. The strut action of the haunch web, which had been predicted from the previous analytical study, was also experimentally identified through the strain gage readings.

This paper describes new analytical modeling for steel moment connections with welded straight haunch. Among a variety of new details for seismic steel moment connections proposed after the 1994 Northridge and the 1995 Hyogo-Ken Nanbu earthquake, one viable solution was to strengthen the connection by adding a triangular haunch on the bottom side of the beam. However, a simpler design has been called for because of the increased labor associated with fitting the triangular haunch. Adding a straight haunch is one alternative. But a mathematical model that forms the design basis is not available. A simplified analytical model that considers the force interaction and deformation compatibility between the beam and haunch is developed in this study. The proposed modeling predicted quite reasonably the interaction forces at the beam-haunch interface and the flexural stresses in the beam and haunch flange groove welds.

Recent test results of steel moment connections repaired with a haunch on the bottom side of the beam have been shown to be a very promising solution to enhancing the seismic performance of steel moment-resisting frames. Yet, litle is known about the effects of using such a repair scheme on the system seismic performance of structures. To investigate the effects of haunch repair on the system seismic performance, a case study was conducted for a 13-story steel frame building damaged during the 1994 Northridge earthquake. When haunches are incorporated in a steel moment frame, the response prediction is complicated by the presence of "dual" panel zones in the column. A new analytical modeling technique for the dual panel zone recently developed by the author was incorporated in the analysis. Incorporating the behavior of dual panel zone was among the most significant consideration in the analyses. Both the inelastic static and dynamic analyses did not indicate detrimental side effects resulting from the repair.he repair.

In the 1994 Northridge earthquake, connection damage initiated from the beam bottom flange was prevalent. The presence of a concrete slab and resulting composite action was speculated as one of the critical causes of the prevalent bottom flange fracture. In this study, four seismic retrofit schemes are proposed in order to salvage welded steel moment connections with composite floor slabs in existing steel moment frames. Because top flange modification of existing beams is not feasible due to the presence of a concrete floor slab, three schemes of bottom flange modification by using welded triangular or straight haunches or RBS(reduced beam section), and beam web strengthening by attaching heavy shear tab were cyclically tested and analyzed. Test results of this study show that haunch and web-strengthened specimens can eliminate the detrimental effect caused by composite action and ensure excellent connection plastic rotation exceeding 5% rad. Design recommendations for each retrofit scheme together with supplemental numerical studies are also presented.

상부 벽체와 하부 골조로 구성되는 주상복합건물은 전이층에서 수직적인 강성과 강도의 불연속성을 갖는다. 이러한 복합구조는 전이층에서 춤이 큰 보에 의하여 하중이 전달되면 설계시 매우 중요하게 고려하여야 하는 사항이다. 그러나 이에 대한 연구가 충분히 이루어져 있지 않으며 실제 전이보의 설계시 춤을 매우 크게 하여 요구되는 강도보다 큰 안전율이 고려되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 전이층의 단순화모델을 이용하여 보의 높이 및 지지면의 길이에 따른 아치거동의 변화를 조사하였다. 유한요소법을 이용하여 구조물을 분석하고 두 변수를 포함하는 헌치부재를 이용하여 그 효과를 기존 시스템과 비교하였다. 중요 변수와 헌치의 기울기는 1:1의 비율에서 사장 효율이 좋은 것으로 나타났으며, 이러한 결과를 전이보를 대신하여 사용한 결과 중력방향의 상부 아치거동에 대하여 효과적으로 작용하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 응력 집중부위에서의 응력 감소와 깊이 전이보의 높이감소에 효과적으로 작용하는 것으로 나타났다.

Reinforced concrete haunched beams have been used for enhancement of shear resistance of beams to avoid the stress concentration. But American and British codes do not give my formula for the design of haunched beams. The purpose of this research is to experimentally investigate the shear failure of reinforced concrete punched beams for various haunch inclinations and shear span-to-depth ratios. The experimental results showed that even though shear behavior of haunched beam were similar to that of resembled rectangular beams, shear span-to-depth ratios and inclinations of haunch had effects on shear cracking strength.

This paper describes a seismic design procedure for steel moment connections with welded straight haunch. Recent test results showed that welding a straight haunch beneath the beam could be a viable solution for not only repair and rehabilitation of pre-Northridge moment connections but also new construction. Although a design procedure for the connection with triangular welded haunch has been developed recently, it is not applicable for the straight haunch moment connection because the force transfer mechanism is different. A simplified analytical model that considers the force interaction and deformation compatibility between the beam and haunch is briefly presented first based on the writer`s previous study. A generic design procedure as well as details that minimize the stress concentration at the haunch tip are also recommended.

To investigate the effects of haunch repair on the system seismic performance of steel moment-resisting frames (steel MRFs), a case study was conducted for a 13-story frame damaged during the 1994 Northridge earthquake. It was assumed that only those locations with reported damage would be repaired with haunches. A new analytical modeling technique for the dual panel zone developed by the author was incorporated in the analysis. Both the inelastic static and dynamic analyses did not indicate detrimental side effects resulting from the repair. As a result of the increased strength in dual panel zones, yielding in these locations were eliminated and larger plastic rotation demand occurred in the beams next to the shallow end of the haunches. Nevertheless, the beam plastic rotation demand produced by the Sylmar record of 1994 Northridge earthquake was still limited to 1.7% radians. The repair resulted in a minor increase in earthquake energy input. In the original structure, the panel zones should dissipate about 80%(for the Oxnard record) and 70%(for the Sylmar record) of the absorbed energy, assuming no brittle failure of moment connections. After repair, the energy dissipated in the panel zones and beams were about equal.
