Analytical models were developed and seismic behaviors were analyzed for a three-story stone pagoda at the Cheollyongsa temple site, which was damaged by the Gyeongju earthquake of 2016. Both finite and discrete element modeling were used and the analysis results were compared to the actual earthquake damage. Vulnerable parts of stone pagoda structure were identified and their seismic behaviors via sliding, rocking, and risk analyses were verified. In finite and discrete element analyses, the 3F main body stone was displaced uniaxially by 60 and 80 mm, respectively, similar to the actual displacement of 90 mm resulting from the earthquake. Considering various input conditions such as uniaxial excitation and soil-structure interaction, as well as seismic components and the distance from the epicenter, both models yielded reasonable and applicable results. The Gyeongju earthquake exhibited extreme short-period characteristics; thus, short-period structures such as stone pagodas were seriously damaged. In addition, we found that sliding occurred in the upper parts because the vertical load was low, but rocking predominated in the lower parts because most structural members were slender. The third-floor main body and roof stones were particularly vulnerable because some damage occurred when the sliding and rocking limits were exceeded. Risk analysis revealed that the probability of collapse was minimal at 0.1 g, but exceeded 80% at above 0.3 g. The collapse risks at an earthquake peak ground acceleration of 0.154 g at the immediate occupancy, life safety, and collapse prevention levels were 90%, 52%, and 6% respectively. When the actual damage was compared with the risk analysis, the stone pagoda retained earthquake-resistant performance at the life safety level.

내진상세가 적용되지 않은 철근콘크리트 교각의 거동특성 및 내진성능을 살펴보기 위해서 축소교각모형실험을 수행하였다. 횡방향 철근이 심부를 구속할 만큼 충분히 배근되어 있지 않은 중심 원형 단면의 실교각을 대상으로 기초 상단의 소성 힌지 부위에서 겹침이음이 된 주철근을 사용했을 때와 연속철근을 사용했을 경우로 구분되도록 철근상세를 결정하였다. 이에 따라 3기의 축소교각시험체를 제작하여 수직방향 축하중을 가한 상태에서 준정적 반복하중을 재하하는 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과를 통해서 겹침이음이 있는 교각시험체는 연성거동을 하지 않지만, 겹침이음이 없이 연속철근을 사용한 교각시험체는 어느 정도의 한정연성거동을 하는 것으로 분석되었다.

현 도로교의 내진해석은 구조물이 하중 이상의 강도를 갖도록 하는 하중기반해석법에 근거하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 하중기반해석의 대안책으로 구조물의 성능평가 대상을 변위로 하는 변위기반해석의 일종인 역량스펙트럼법을 제시하였다. 하중기반해석에서 내진설계가 수행되어진 기존 철근콘크리트 교각에 대하여 역량스펙트럼법에 의한 내진성능을 평가하였다. 그 결과, 역량스펙트럼법은 간편하고 신속하게 구조물의 비탄성 응답을 현실적으로 평가할 수 있었으며 비탄성 응답을 일으키는 다양한 지반운동 수준에 대해 구조물에 발생하는 변위를 평가할 수 있었고, 기존 구조물의 내진성능에 대한 평가나 신설구조물의 성능목표에 대한 설계검증에 효율적으로 적용 가능하였다.

In this study, the structural performance of a seven span masonry arch bridge was evaluated. Investigations were performed on Aspendos (Belkis) Masonry Arch Bridge which was located on road of Aspendos Acropolis City in Antalya, Turkey. The old bridge was constructed in the early of fourth century AD, but it was exposed to the earthquakes in this region and the overloading by the river water. The old bridge was severely damaged and collapsed by probably an earthquake many years ago and a new bridge was then reconstructed on the remains of this old bridge by Seljuk in the 13th century. The bridge has also been affected from overflowing especially in the spring of each year, so some protective measures should be taken for this monumental bridge. Therefore, the structural performance under these loading has to be known. For this purpose, an initial finite element model was developed for the bridge and it was calibrated according to ambient vibration test results. After that, it was analyzed for different load cases such as dead, live, earthquake and overflow. Three load combinations were taken into account by deriving from these load cases. The displacements and the stresses for these combination cases were attained and compared with each other. The structural performance of Aspendos Masonry Arch Bridge was determined by considering the demand-capacity ratio for the tensile stress of the mortar used in Aspendos Masonry Arch Bridge. After these investigations, some concluding remarks and offers were presented at the end of this study.

본 논문에서는 RC 교가의 보수${\cdot}$보강 시 사용되는 강판피복과 CFRP의 내진 보수성능을 비교하고, 횡방향 철근비가 강판과 CFRP로 보수된 실험체의 성능에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 이를 위하여 다른 횡철근비를 갖는 3개의 교각 실험체를 각 3개씩 총 9개를 제작하여 보수 전과 강판 및 CFRP보수 후의 거동을 비교하였다. 비교에 사용된 거동은 이력거동과 극한거동이며 이러한 거동은 반복하중 및 단조증가하중실험의 수행을 통하여 구하였다. 각 횡철근비 및 보수방법에 대하여 이력거동, 최대하중 및 최대변위를 비교한 결과 강판과 CFRP로 보수된 실험체의 변위연성과 최대하중이 증가하였음을 확인하였다. 또한 횡방향 철근비가 증가함에 따라서 실험체의 변위연성이 증가하였고, 소성힌지의 위치도 높아짐을 알 수 있었다.

건물의 고층화가 이루어지면서 구조부재에 미치는 축력이 증가하게 되고 축소현상을 발생시킨다. 이러한 축소현상은 구조물의 사용헝 저하를 가져올뿐만아니라 2차 응력 발생으로 구조물 자체의 안전에도 영향을 미친다. 수직구조부재의 축소량을 예측하는 목적은 인접 부재간의 부등축소를 보정하는 데 있다 본 논문에서는 시공과정에서만 보정을 실시한 경우와 설계단계에서 축소량을 예측하여 보정을 한 경우에 대해 각각 지진하중을 적용하여 구조부재에 미치는 영향에 대해 비교.검토를 하였으며 수직구조부재의 축소량은 반드시 예측되어 보정을 실시하여야 하는 것으로 나타났다.

'Seismic Performance Evaluation Method for Existing Buildings (2013)' developed in accordance with the overseas guidelines ASCE 41 - 06 is the most widely used procedure among domestic seismic performance evaluation guidelines in Korea. However, unlike ASCE 41 - 06, it stipulates that the final performance should be derived as the gravity load distribution ratio of the lateral force resistance system in the guideline. Therefore, in the case of a dual steel structure system with slender braces, where the internal moment frame is mostly responsible for the gravity load, the evaluation of slender braces based on gravity load distribution ratio is difficult to be achieved. In this research, we propose an objective evaluation process for such system by evaluating seismic performance for large-scale factory facilities as an example.

The arched stone bridge has been continuously deteriorated and damaged by the weathering and corrosion over time, and also natural disaster such as earthquake has added the damage. However, masonry stone bridge has the behavior characteristics as discontinuum structure and is very vulnerable to lateral load such as earthquake. So, it is necessary to analyze the dynamic behavior characteristics according to various design variables of arched stone bridge under seismic loads. To this end, the arched stone bridge can be classified according to arch types, and then the discrete element method is applied for the structural modelling and analysis. In addition, seismic loads according to return periods are generated and the dynamic analysis considering the discontinuity characteristics is carried out. Finally, the dynamic behavior characteristics are evaluated through the structural safety estimation for slip condition.

Response spectrum method is still an effective approach for the design of buildings with supplemental dampers. In practice, complex complete quadratic combination (CCQC) rule is always used in the response spectrum method to consider the effect of non-classical damping. The conventional CCQC rule is based on exact complex mode vectors. Sometimes the calculated complex mode vectors may be not excited by the external loading and errors in the structural responses always arise due to the mode truncation. Load-dependent Ritz (LDR) vectors are associated with the external loading and LDR vectors not excited can be automatically excluded. Also, contributions of higher modes are implicitly contained in the LDR vectors in terms of static responses. To improve the calculation efficiency and accuracy, LDR vectors are introduced in the CCQC rule in the present study. Firstly, the generation procedure of LDR vectors suitable for non-classical damping system is presented. Compared to the conventional LDR vectors, the LDR vectors herein are complex-valued and named as complex LDR (CLDR) vectors. Based on the CLDR vectors, the CCQC rule is then rederived and an improved response spectrum method is developed. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method in this paper is verified through three typical non-classical damping buildings. Numerical results show that the CLDR vector is superior to the complex mode with the same number in the calculation. Since the generation of CLDR vectors requires less computational cost and storage space, the method proposed in this paper offers an attractive alternative, especially for structures with a large number of degrees of freedom.
