This paper provides an overview of the unreinforced masonry in Australian Standard, especially places the focus on a seismic code. Australia, like Korea, is a country of lower seismicity, and strengthens the code of unreinforced masonry since Newcastle earthquake of magnitude 5.6 in 1989. It is useful in establishing Korean code for unreinforced masonry to compare Australian Standard to Korean.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of boundary RC frame(composed of one tie-beam and two tie-columns) on seismic performance of unreinforced masonry walls to suggest alternative way for seismic design of unreinforced masonry wall structures. Two test specimens are prepared, one is a typical unreinforced masonry wall and another is alternative unreinforced masonry wall with additional boundary RC frame. The structural experiments were carried out to evaluate the difference of seismic resistance performance between two test specimens with or without the boundary RC frames. From the test results, it was found that the failure mode of unreinforced masonry wall fundamentally changed from 'brittle' to 'ductile' by the installing of boundary RC frames. And, the maximum load and energy dissipation capacity of the test specimen with boundary RC frame was increased about 1.6~1.7 and 2~3 times respectively compared with a typical unreinforced masonry wall specimen.

The purpose of this study is to provide basic information for unreinforced masonry building in Korea by application of the proposed seismic evaluation method. In this study, seismic capacities of 50 existing unreinforced masonry buildings are evaluated based on the proposed method. Also, relationships of seismic capacities between Korean earthquake damage ratios of Korean unreinforced masonry buildings are estimated. Results of this study were as follows; 1)Seismic retrofit was needed $4{\sim}48%$ in Korean unreinforced masonry buildings. 2)Korean unreinforced masonry buildings were expected to have severe damage under the earthquake intensity level experienced in Japan.

To estimate the behavior of reinforced and unreinforced embankment constructed on a impermeable foundation ground, a laboratory model test was performed for two types of soils and water level increasing velocity of a flood period. The experiment models were constructed with slopes of water level is 1.25cm/min, 2.5cm/min each. From model test results, as the slope of reinforced and unreinforced embankment was the slower, the more seepage line rised. In the unreinforced embankment, the rising velocity of water level was the faster, the larger the embankment failure was. And the reinforced embankment with geotextile was the more safe than the unreinforced embankment for seepage force.

In this paper the intrinsic influence of micron-sized nickel particle reinforcements on microstructure, micro-hardness tensile properties and tensile fracture behavior of nano-alumina particle reinforced magnesium alloy AZ31 composite is presented and discussed. The unreinforced magnesium alloy (AZ31) and the reinforced nanocomposite counterpart (AZ31/1.5 vol.% $Al_2O_3$/1.5 vol.% Ni] were manufactured by solidification processing followed by hot extrusion. The elastic modulus and yield strength of the nickel particle-reinforced magnesium alloy nano-composite was higher than both the unreinforced magnesium alloy and the unreinforced magnesium alloy nanocomposite (AZ31/1.5 vol.% $Al_2O_3$). The ultimate tensile strength of the nickel particle reinforced composite was noticeably lower than both the unreinforced nano-composite and the monolithic alloy (AZ31). The ductility, quantified by elongation-to-failure, of the reinforced nanocomposite was noticeably higher than both the unreinforced nano-composite and the monolithic alloy. Tensile fracture behavior of this novel material was essentially normal to the far-field stress axis and revealed microscopic features reminiscent of the occurrence of locally ductile failure mechanisms at the fine microscopic level.

Since the publication of ACI 318-02, the concrete capacity design (CCD) method has been used to determine the resistance of unreinforced concrete anchors. The regulation of steel-reinforced anchors was proposed in ACI 318-08. Until ACI 318-08, the shear resistance of concrete breakout for an unreinforced anchor during an earthquake was reduced to 75% of the static shear strength, but this reduction has been eliminated since ACI 318-11. In addition, the resistance of a hairpin-reinforced anchor was calculated using only the strength of the steel, and a regulation on the dynamic strength was not given for reinforced anchors. In this study, shaking table tests were performed to evaluate the dynamic shear strength of unreinforced and hairpin-reinforced cast-in-place (CIP) anchors during earthquakes. The anchors used in this study were 30 mm in diameter, with edge distances of 150 mm and embedment depths of 240 mm. The diameter of the hairpin steel was 10 mm. Shaking table tests were carried out on two specimens using the artificial earthquake, based on the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (US NRC)'s Regulatory Guide 1.60, and the Northridge earthquake. The experimental results were compared to the current ACI 318 and ETAG 001 design codes.

The behavior of a unreinforced cement brick building structure subjected to earthquake loading was experimentally investigated. for this four full size wall specimens were tested under quasi-static in-plane cyclic loading. Experimental observations indicate that the failure modes of unreinforced masonry walls are principally governed by sliding or/and rocking depending on the aspect ration and magnitude of axial loading. Also found was the flexure or shear mode resulting from the degraded strength of brick and/or mortar due to the cyclic loading effect.

there is no earthquake resistant design code for the unreinforced masonary(URM) buildings in Korea. But it does not mean that all URM buldings in Korea is safe under the possible extent of an earthquake. The purpose of this study is in the inelastic analysis of unreinforced masonary walls with many different types of openings and carry out their ductilities an strengths, response modification factor of each wall has been compared and the most appropriate response modification factor for URM building in Korea has been proposed.

Unreinforced masonry is widely used as a structural material in residential constructions and known to have poor seismic performance in the out-of-plane rather than in-plane behavior. In countries of lower seismicity such as Korea, it is necessary to check the possibility of the mode of the out-of-plane failure. Though face loading is a major cause of the failure of masonary walls, Korean Seismic Code does not include provision for face-loaded unreinforced masonry walls. This paper briefly reviews the concept of analysis for unreinforced masonry walls subjected to face-load excitation proposed by Priestley, and its applicatility to Korean case.

본 연구에서는 향후 국내의 실정에 맞는 조적조 건물의 내진성능 평가방법의 개발에 기초적인 자료제공을 목적으로 지진에 무방비 상태로 노출된 조적조 건축물 특히 서울시내 50개동의 조적조 건물들을 대상으로 기존 건축물의 구조내진 성능 평가에 관한 기술지침(안)의 방법에 따라 건물의 내진성능을 평가하고 구조내진지표의 분포특성 및 지진피해율을 통계 확률론에 입각하여 검토한 결과, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 그, 결과, 국내의 현존 조적조 건물의 경년지표(T)를 1에서 0.7사이로 가정하고, 평균전단 응력도를 0.2MPa로 가정 시 표준정규분포로 근사가 가능하다는 것을 알았으며, 조사 대상건물은 경년지표의 변화에 따라 국내 상정 입력지진가속도 레벨에서도 $8{\sim}48%$정도의 내진보강이 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 국내 상정 입력지진가속도 레벨인 0.12g에 대해서 $11.5{\sim}37.4%$정도의 지진피해율이 상정되었으며 일본의 대표적인 피해지진레벨(0.23g) 뿐만 아니라 중규모의 지진에서도 큰 피해를 받을 것으로 사료된다. 따라서 국내실정에 적합한 내진진단법, 이를 근거로 한 보강건물의 합리적인 선정방법 및 효과적인 내진보강공법이 개발이 시급하다고 판단된다.
