This paper focuses on the study of seismic behavior of steel reinforced concrete special-shaped column-beam joints. Six specimens, which are designed according to the principle of strong-member and weak-joint core, are tested under low cyclic reversed load. Key parameters include the steel form in column section and the ratio of column limb height to thickness. The failure mode, load-displacement curves, ductility, stiffness degradations, energy dissipation capacity and shear deformation of joint core of the test subassemblies are analyzed. The results indicate that SRC special-shaped column-beam joints have good seismic behavior. All specimens failed due to the shear failure of the joint core, and the failure degree between the two sides of joint core is similar for the exterior joint but different for the corner joint. Compared to the joints with channel steel truss, the joints with solid web steel skeleton illustrate better ductility and energy dissipation capacity, but the loading capacity and stiffness are roughly close. With the increasing of the ratio of column limb height to thickness, the joints illustrate higher loading capacity and stiffness, better energy dissipation capacity, but worse ductility.

In order to study the degradation and damage behaviors of steel frame welded connections, two series of tests in references with different connection constructions were carried out subjected to various cyclic loading patterns. Hysteretic curves, degradation and damage behaviours and fatigue properties of specimens were firstly studied. Typical failure modes and probable damage reasons were discussed. Then, various damage index models with variables of dissipative energy, cumulative displacement and combined energy and displacement were summarized and applied for all experimental specimens. The damage developing curves of ten damage index models for each connection were obtained. Finally, the predicted and evaluated capacities of damage index models were compared in order to describe the degraded performance and failure modes. The characteristics of each damage index model were discussed in depth, and then their distributive laws were summarized. The tests and analysis results showed that the loading histories significantly affected the distributive shapes of damage index models. Different models had their own ranges of application. The selected parameters of damage index models had great effect on the developing trends of damage curves. The model with only displacement variable was recommended because of a more simple form and no integral calculation, which was easier to be formulated and embedded in application programs.

By carrying out the experiment of eight pieces of brick masonry walls with pilaster strengthened by Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) and one piece of normal masonry wall with pilaster under low reversed cyclic loading, the failure characteristic of every wall is explained; Seismic performances such as hysteresis, stiffness and its degeneration, deformation, energy consumption and influence of some measures including strengthening means, reinforcement area proportion between GFRP and wall surface, "through-wall" anchor on reinforcement effects are studied. The test results showed that strengthening modes have little influence on stiffness, stiffness degeneration and deformation of the wall, but it is another thing for energy consumption of the wall; The ultimate load, deformation and energy consumption of the walls reinforced by glass fiber sheets was increased remarkably, rigidity and its degeneration was slower; Seismic performance of the wall which considers strengthening means, reinforcement area proportion between GFRP and wall surface, "through-wall" anchor at the same time is better than under the other conditions.

Visco-Plastic Damper (VPD) as a passive energy dissipation device with dual behavior has been recently numerically studied. It consists of two bent steel plates and segments with a viscoelastic solid material in between, combining and improving characteristics of both displacement-dependent and velocity-dependent devices. In order to trust the performance of VPD, for the 1st time this paper experimentally investigates prototype damper behavior under a wide range of frequency and amplitude of dynamic loading. A high-axial damping rubber is innovatively proposed as the viscoelastic layer designed to withstand large axial strains and dissipate energy accordingly. Test results confirmed all assumptions about VPD. The behavior of VPD subjected to low levels of excitation is elastic while with increasing levels of excitation, a significant source of energy dissipation is provided through the yielding of the steel elements in addition to the viscoelastic energy dissipation. The results showed energy dissipation of 99.35 kN.m under a dynamic displacement with 14.095 mm amplitude and 0.333 Hz frequency. Lateral displacement at the middle of the device was created with an amplification factor obtained ranging from 2.108 to 3.242 in the rubber block. Therefore, the energy dissipation of viscoelastic material of VPD was calculated 18.6 times that of the ordinary viscoelastic damper.

This study investigated the influence of scale ratio and vertical load on the seismic performance of Puzuo joints in traditional Chinese timber structures. Three low-cyclic reversed loading tests were conducted on three scaled specimens of Bujian Puzuo in Yingxian Wooden Pagoda. This study focused on the deformation patterns and analyzed seismic performance under varying scale ratios and vertical loads. The results indicated that the slip and rotational deformations of Bujian Puzuo were the primary deformations. The scale of the specimen did not affect the layer where the maximum interlayer slip occurred, but it did decrease the proportion of slip deformation. Conversely, the reducing vertical load caused the layer with the maximum slippage and the position of the damaged Dou components to shift upward, and the proportion of slip deformation increased. When the vertical load was decreased by 3.7 times, the maximum horizontal bearing capacity under positive and negative loadings, initial stiffness, and energy dissipation of the specimen decreased by approximately 60%, 58.79%, 69.62%, and 57.93%, respectively. The horizontal bearing capacity under positive loading and energy dissipation of the specimen increased by 35.63% and 131.54%, when the specimen scale was doubled and the vertical load was increased by 15 times.

고력볼트로서 슬립이 발생치 않도록 설계된 철골모멘트골조의 보 이음부의 내진거동을 반복재하 실물대 실험을 통하여 평가하였다. 예상과는 달리 모메트 접합부가 극한 소성강도에 도달하기 훨씬 이전에 보 이음부의 슬립이 발생하였다 실험을 통하여 관측된 마찰계수는 규준 공칭값의 50-60%에 불과하였다. 그러나 보 플랜지의 열영향부가 파단에 이르기 까지 슬립 이후의 지압거동을 통하여 증가되는 반복하중을 성공적으로 모멘트접합부로 전달하였다. 즉 반복하중 하에서도 보 이음부의 슬립이 곧바로 구조적 일체성의 상실로 이어지지는 않음이 관측되었다 볼토구멍을 공제한 보 플랜지 유효단면적의 전강도에 기준한 전통적 보 이음부 설계법에 의할 경우 모멘트 접합부의 소성강도 발현 이전에 보 이음부의 슬립발생 가능성이 높다 본 연구에서는 역량설계 개념에 기초하여 강진 작용시의 보 이음부의 설계와 관련한 추가 고려사항을 제안하였다.

쇼트피닝(shot-peening) 처리를 한 베어링강의 고사이클 피로거동을 연구하였다. 열처리한 베어링강(JISSUJ2) 시험편과 열처리 후 쇼트피닝 표면가공을 추가한 시험편을 사용해 회전굽힘피로시험을 수행하고 파단 된 시험편의 파면을 분석하였다. 시험편의 피로파괴는 표면 결함에서 비롯된 표면 파괴와, 내부의 비금속개 재물에서 비롯된 내부형 파괴의 두 종류로 발생하였다. 내부 파괴의 경우 비금속 개재물 주변에 어안(fisheye) 모양의 파괴양식이 관찰되었다. 개재물은 표면으로부터의 깊이와 형상에 따라 피로 수명에 큰 영향을 주었다. 쇼트피닝 가공을 한 베어링강은 저사이클 하중영역 및 고사이클 하중영역에서 모두 피로수명이 향상되었으며, 하중이 작아질수록 피로수명의 개선은 더욱 커졌다. 또한 2 모수 와이블(Weibull) 분포를 이용하여 베어링강의 확률-응력-수명 (P-S-N) 곡선을 구하여 신뢰도 높은 피로수명 예측을 하였다.

본 논문에서는 주문진 표준사를 대상으로 개량된 반복삼축압축 시험장치를 이용하여 탄성계수와 감쇠비에 대한 변형특성을 분석하였다. 기존의 낮은 정밀도를 갖는 LVDT를 사용한 반복삼축시험기를 개량하여 정밀하고 넓은 영역의 동적변형특성을 얻기 위해서 전단변형률(${\gamma}$) $10^{-4}-10^{-1}%$ 범위의 측정을 제어하는 셀 외부 LDT와 내부의 시료에 LDT를 설치하여 사용하였다. 이러한 미소변형제어를 통하여 5가지의 재하속도 변화와 간극비를 구분하고 4가지의 구속응력 조건을 달리하여 반복삼축시험을 수행하였다. 시험결과를 바탕으로 전단탄성계수와 감쇠비를 여러 조건에 대하여 반복하중 및 변형률 크기의 영향을 비교하고 분석한 결과, 주문진 표준사의 기존(공진주 시험)의 동적변형특성 보다 넓은 구간에서 시험값들을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한, 공진주 시험에서 0.02% 이하의 미소변형률 구간에서 얻은 결과를 토대로 중간변형률 구간을 비선형 모델로 예측한 값들은 반복삼축시험으로 얻은 실험값들과 다른 변형특성을 나타내고 있음을 관찰할 수 있었다.

The seismic behavior of moment connections consisting of reinforced concrete columns and steel beams is investigated based on four 2/3 scale tests of exterior beam-column joints subject to reversed cyclic loading. The major test parameters were the number of hoops the isolated concrete contribution and the use of headed studs in the joint regions between columns and beams. Their influence on the seismic response of the connections is presented and compared. Among them the CF3 specimen containing two hoops each in the joint and column regions above and below exhibited the most favourable hysteretic response. This indicates that this type of joint details can be used in the low seismic areas such as Korea.

ACI318-89 Recommended that when the specified compressive strength of concrete in a column is greater than1.4 times that specified for a floor system, top surface of the column concrete shall extend 2ft(600mm)into the slab from the face of column to avoid unexpected brittle failure. The major variables are extension distance, flexural strength ratio(Mr), and shear reinforcement ratio(Vs). Test results are as follows ; (1) The failure modes of specimens under cyclic loading were concentrated at critical region from beam-column joint face. (2) Ductility index($\mu$f) were increased with increasing of shear confinement ratio and flexural strength ratio. (3)The specimens with 2ft extension distance showed more ductility than the specimens with 1ft extension distance.
