A simple seismic design procedure for pile foundation using PAR and LPILE$\^$plus/ was proposed. A case of pile foundation under a simple bridge was selected and analyzed. The calculated horizontal movements, shear forces and moments were compared with those evaluated by the numerical exact solutions, and the farmers had similar trends with the tatters.

Fundamental period is one of the most critical parameters affecting the seismic design of buildings. In this paper, a very simple approach is presented for estimating the fundamental period of multiple-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) structures. The basic idea behind this approach is to replace the complicated MDOF system with an equivalent single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system. To realize this equivalence, a procedure for replacing a two-degree-of-freedom (2-DOF) system with an SDOF system, known as a two-to-single (TTS) procedure, is developed first; then, using the TTS procedure successively, an MDOF system is replaced with an equivalent SDOF system. The proposed approach is expressed in terms of mass, stiffness, and number of stories, without mode shape or any other parameters; thus, it is a very simple method. The accuracy of the proposed method is investigated by estimating the fundamental periods of many MDOF models; it is found that the results obtained by the proposed method agree very well with those obtained by eigenvalue analysis.

The equivalent static force procedure and the response spectrum analysis method are widely used for seismic analyses of multi-story buildings. The equivalent static force procedure is one of the most simple but less accurate method in predicting possible seismic response of a structure. The response spectrum analysis method provides more accurate results while it takes much longer computational time. In the response spectrum method, dynamic response of a multi-story building is obtained by combining modal responses through a proper procedure such as SRSS or CQC method. Since all of the analysis results are expressed in absolute values, structural engineers have difficulties to combine them with the results obtained from the static analysis. Design automation is interrupted at this stage because of the difficulty in the decision of the most critical design load. Pseudo-dynamic analysis method proposed in this study provides more accurate seismic analysis results than those of the equivalent static force procedure since the dynamic characteristics of a structure is considered. And the proposed method has an advantage in combination of the analysis results due to gravity loads and seismic loads since the direction of the forces can be considered.

도로교의 대표적인 기초형식인 말뚝기초에 대한 내진설계방법으로 여러 가지 방법들이 제안되어 있다. 이 중 동적해석법과 같은 복잡한 절차에 의한 해석은 적용성에 한계가 있을 수 있고, 실무에서의 적용상 많은 어려움이 예상되었다. 본 연구에서는 등가정적해석법을 이용한 도로교 기초 말뚝에 대한 간편한 내진설계절차를 제안하였으며, 사례에 적용하였다. 또한, 제안된 간편한 내진설계절차에 사용할 수 있는 해석코드의 적용성을 확인하기 위하여 수식적 정해에 의한 계산결과를 기준 값으로 하여 해석코드에 의한 해석결과들을 비교.분석하였다. 또한, 지진 진동을 이용한 동적 해석결과와 SPS 상호작용(Superstructure - pile - soil interaction)을 고려한 해석결과를 수식적 정해에 의한 결과와 비교.분석하였다.

Nonlinear static analysis and preliminary evaluation were performed in this study to evaluate the seismic performance of unreinforced masonry buildings subjected to various soil conditions based on the revised Korean Building Code. Preliminary evaluation scores and nonlinear static analyses indicated that all buildings were susceptible to collapse and did not reach their target performance. Therefore, retrofit of those building models was carried out through a systematic procedure to determine areas to be strengthened. It was possible to make most building models satisfy performance objectives through the reinforcement alone of damaged external shear walls. However, the application of a preliminary evaluation procedure to retrofit design was found to be too conservative because all the retrofitted building models verified with nonlinear static analysis failed to satisfy performance objectives. Therefore, it is possible to economically retrofit unreinforced masonry buildings through the fortification of external walls if a simple evaluation procedure that can efficiently specify vulnerable parts is developed.

In this study a seismic retrofit scheme for a building structure was presented using steel plate slit dampers. The energy dissipation capacity of the slit damper used in the retrofit was verified by cyclic loading test. Genetic algorithm was applied to find out the optimum locations of the slit dampers satisfying the target displacement. The seismic retrofit of the model structure using the slit dampers was compared with the retrofit with enlarging shear walls. A simple damper distribution method was proposed using the capacity spectrum method along with the damper distribution pattern proportional to the inter-story drifts. The validity of the simple story-wise damper distribution procedure was verified by comparing the results of genetic algorithm. It was observed that the capacity-spectrum method combined with the simple damper distribution pattern leaded to satisfactory story-wise distribution of dampers compatible with the optimum solution obtained from genetic algorithm.

Aim of the paper is the definition of optimal design parameters characterizing the isolation system of a bridge, both in the case of elastomeric (VI) and sliding bearings (SI), having viscoelastic or rigid-plastic behavior, respectively, installed between the piers and the deck. The problem is treated by means of an analytical approach. Using the frequency response analysis, a simple procedure is proposed to determine the optimal value of the viscous coefficient or the yield displacement of the isolators. The adequacy of the proposed procedure is finally verified through time-history analyses performed on a practical case under natural earthquakes.

A preliminary performance-based seismic design methodology is proposed. The top yield displacement of the system is computed from these of the components, which are assumed constant. Besides, a simple procedure to evaluate the top yield displacement of frames is developed. Seismic demands are represented in the form of yield point spectra. The methodology is general, conceptually transparent, uses simple calculations based on first principles and is applicable to asymmetric systems. To consider a specific situation two earthquake levels, occasional and rare are considered. The advantage of an arbitrary assignment of strength to the different components to reduce eccentricities and improved the torsional response of the system is addressed. The methodology is applied to an asymmetric five story building, and the results are verified by push-over analysis and non linear dynamic analysis.

There has been an increasing trend toward the use of pushover analysis as a tool for evaluating the seismic resistant and safety of a building structure in the performance based earthquake engineering field. The ATC-40 document proposed a nonlinear static procedure based on the Capacity Spectrum Method to determine earthquake-induced demand given the structure pushover curve, which a curve representing base shear versus roof displacement. However, the procedure is conceptually simple, iterative and time consuming method and may sometimes lead to no solution or multiple solutions. A new improved method of seismic performance evaluation for moment frame building, which take into account the previously mentioned deficiencies of currently used elastic design procedures, is presented in this paper. The results of nonlinear static and nonlinear time history analysis of an example high-rise steel moment frame designed by the proposed method are presented and discussed.

본 연구의 목적은 건축구조물의 지진응답제어를 위한 MR 감쇠기의 크기, 개수 및 최적위치를 결정하는 설계절차를 제안하는 것이다. 기존의 연구에서 제안된 MR 감쇠기의 모델링 방법들의 특성과 차이점을 진동제어효과의 관점에서 분석하였으며, 이 모델 중 해석이 간단하고 이력특성을 모사할 수 있는 이력 이점성 모델을 사용하여 MR 감쇠기의 변수연구를 수행하였다. 건축구조물의 층간에 설치되는MR 감쇠장치의 용량은 지진응답의 경우 구조물의 주기와 감쇠비에 따라 층전단력이 다르게 됨을 고려하여, 20개의 지진하중에 대한 해석으로부터 구한 응답스펙트럼을 이용하여 결정하였으며, 설치 갯수에 따른 제어경향을 분석하였다. MR 감쇠기의 크기, 개수, 그리고 최적위치를 결정하기 위한 방법이 제안되었으며, 기존의 점성감쇠기 설계시 이용되는 층간변위 혹은 층간속도가 가장 큰 층에 순차적으로 설치하는 방법과의 비교를 통해 유효성을 검증하였다. 수치해석결과는 제안된 방법을 사용하여 MR 감쇠기의 크기, 개수, 그리고 위치를 합리적으로 결정할 수 있음을 보여준다.
