Full-scale shake table seismic experiments and low-amplitude vibration tests on a masonry building are carried out to assess its seismic performance as well as study the effectiveness of a new multifunctional textile material for retrofitting masonry structures against earthquakes. The un-reinforced and the retrofitted with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) strips masonry building was subjected to a series of earthquake excitations of increasing magnitude in order to progressively induce various small, moderate and severe levels of damage to the masonry walls. The performance of the original and retrofitted building states is evaluated. Changes in the dynamic characteristics (lowest four modal frequencies and damping ratios) of the building are used to assess and quantify the damage states of the masonry walls. For this, the dynamic modal characteristics of the structure states after each earthquake event were estimated by performing low-amplitude impulse hammer and sine-sweep forced vibration tests. Comparisons between the modal results calculated using traditional accelerometers and those using Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors embedded in the reinforcing textile were carried on to investigate the reliability and accuracy of FBG sensors in tracking the dynamic behaviour of the building. The retrofitting actions restored the stiffness characteristics of the reinforced masonry structure to the levels of the original undamaged un-reinforced structure. The results show that despite a similar dynamic behavior identified, corresponding to reduction of the modal frequencies, the un-reinforced masonry building was severely damaged, while the reinforced masonry building was able to withstand, without visual damage, the induced strong seismic excitations. The applied GFRP reinforcement architecture for one storey buildings was experimentally proven reliable for the most severe earthquake accelerations. It was easily placed in a short time and it is a cost effective solution (covering only 20% of the external wall surfaces) when compared to the cost for full wall coverage by GFRPs.

최근 건축물의 초고층화, 대형화 및 장경간화에 따른 요구 성능의 증대에 따라 강재 및 콘크리트 등의 구조재료가 지니는 재료강도 및 사용성 등을 향상시키고자 하는 노력이 지속적으로 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 개발된 건축구조용 고성능 강재의 기계적, 화학적 소재 특성을 평가하고, 실제 Project를 대상으로 대안설계를 수행하여 고강도 강재의 경제성을 평가하였다. HSA800은 고강도와 좋은 용접성을 갖추기 위해 TMCP 방식으로 제조되었으며, 기계적, 화학적 성질 모두 KS규격을 만족하였다. 또한 HSA800의 고층건물의 적용성 및 경제성 평가를 위해 SM490강재 모델과 사용성에 초점을 두고 비교 평가를 수행하였다. 그 결과 SM490대비 약 30% 물량절감이 가능하였다. HSA800의 사용은 추후 건축구조의 제작, 시공 뿐만아니라 공사비 절감에도 기여할 것으로 기대되어진다.

Recently, residents have been spending almost 90% of their time indoors, which presents a higher risk from inhalation of pollutants than when spending time outdoors. Therefore, controlling indoor air quality became important. It is reported that the lung diseases and mortality for occupants are increased when there is high density of ozone which is one of the pollutants among the indoor air. In addition, the reactions between ozone and building materials produce VOCs and formaldehyde. The studies to eliminate the ozone by building materials have been actively investigated. However, ozone removal and secondary pollutants from ozone reactions with building materials have not been reported in Korea. For this reason, the aim of this study is to introduce ozone removal by HVAC filters, various building materials, and eco-friendly building materials including the quantity of secondary pollutant emissions.

Resizing techniques have been recognized as practical methods for drift design of high-rise building since sensitivity analysis and iterative structural analysis are not required in implementation. In the techniques, the amount of material of a memberin a building for resizing is determined in terms of cross-sectional areas and sectional inertia moments as design variables. In this study, five drift design methods are developed by considering design variable linking strategy and fomulating resizing algorithm in terms of material properties of shear walls as a design variable. The developed methods are applied to the drift design of 20-story frame-RC shear wall structure, and then evaluated in the view points of practicality and efficiency.

Due to the big fire in Uijeongbu, the status of construction, fireproof materials and structural method were examined to prevent fire propagation through outside insulation parts of urban living homes. Through research and experiments, the following results were obtained. It was confirmed that outside heat-insulation wall method was used in a large number of urban living homes which were made of materials and structures spreading fire easily.Through experiments, it was revealed that lightweight plate material, as a fireproof material, can save the cost as well as the period of construction and obtain more than 30 minutes of evacuation time which is twice the maximum evacuation time.

In the case of concrete recently manufactured with a concrete mixing truck, although aggregate and cement are used as the main ingredients, from a costs savings perspective, low quality aggregates are processed and used as concrete aggregate. In the case of these low quality aggregates, the unit volume and unit binder weights are increased for manufacturing, and due to this problems such as dry shrinking of the architecture and economic infeasibility have arisen. Therefore by changing the aggregate material and the unit binder weights that are currently being distributed, this research analyzes the influence on concrete.

This study deals with 'Sachlichkeit' , as essence of materiality that architectural building materials process, which forms the physical basis for actual building. There have beennu merous researches that deals with various elements that compose architecture, but the emphasis seemed to be concentrated on the meta-physical discussion concerning formal concept. An issue on sachlichkeit as materiality does not necessary mean to mention production process of architecture, rather it is aim of this study to seek possibility to find elements that generate architectural form, through interpreting meaning of materials as substructure generator to make architectural possible. Architectural act can be defined as a process where physical material in life is composed into architecture by the hands of architect. Material used in life is composed into architecture by the hands of architect. Material used in this process basically has neutral characteristic, so 'Sachlichkeit'solely depends on the intentions of architects. This study interprets the intention of architects through the frame of modern-basis proposed by Hilberseimer, and a result architecture is defined as an object projected by architect's subjectivity.

In case of fire spray protection sheath, fire resisting capacity is assessed for each material and installation method according to fire-resistive construction recognition. This study reviews effects of the percentage of water content that exist in fire spray protection sheath during the assess process of fire resisting capacity on fire resisting capacity, and changes of the percentage of water content according to temperature conditions. As a result of exams, as curing temperature is higher and thickness of specimen is thinner, decrease of the percentage of water content becomes significant.

This thesis investigates vibration response characteristics of building frames in which dampers are installed. The frames belong to passively vibration-controlled. Structures which utilizes energy dissipation of mechanical dampers provided in the structure. In this thesis, a turbulent flow damper sealed by visco-elastic material was dealt with as the device of passive vibration control. To investigate the resisting force characteristics of the damper, harmonic vibratration tests were carried out. Based on the test results, a theoretical model of the damper resistance was presented and a method of identifying the model parameters was proposed. Shaking table tests of the frame with and without the dampers were carried out and the effectiveness of the damper was examined. The response of the frame with the dampers was reduced to 1/2 or 1/3 of the cases without the damper.
