  • 본 연구의 목적은 커튼월의 내진성능을 향상시킨 커튼월 제품을 개발하고, 층간변위시험을 실시하여 내진성능을 검증하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 (재)한국건설생활환경시험연구원의 옥외실증센터에서 커튼월 시험체를 2개층 이상으로 제작하고 지진하중과 유사한 변위량을 유발한 후 커튼월의 파손상태를 확인하였다. 1차 시험을 실시한 결과, 내진등급(특) 기준에서는 커튼월 시제품의 프레임과 유리 파손이 발생되지 않았으나, 내진등급(I)과 내진등급(II ) 기준에서는 Weather Sealant가 일부 파손되었다. 그리고 AAMA 501.6(동적내진시험)에서 정한 최대 층간변위량 150mm를 가압하였을 때 유리가 파손되는 현상이 발생되었다. 2차 시험을 실시한 결과, 내진등급(특), 내진등급(I), 내진등급(II), AAMA 501.6에서 유리가 파손되는 문제가 발생되지 않았다. 따라서, 본 커튼월 시제품의 내진성능 시험을 실시한 (재)한국건설생활환경시험연구원에서 2016년 9월 경주 5.8 규모와 2017년 11월 포항 5.4 규모의 지진에도 커튼월 프레임과 프레임 간의 탈락, Weather Sealant의 찢어짐 그리고 유리가 파손되는 피해가 없을 것으로 사료된다는 판단을 받았다.

  • The diagrid structural system is considered to be not only the best structural system for constructing free form structures, but also a very effective system in resisting lateral load. As a newly investigated structural system, its complicated node has not yet been completely investigated and minimal experimentation of manufacturing and constructing the system have been conducted. Therefore, the constructing cost of the diagrid structural system is still comparatively high. In this paper, the cyclic performance of a diagrid node with an H-section brace will be discussed. Design details that consider productivity were proposed and their structural performances were assessed through experimental and analytical investigation.

  • Hybrid simulation is increasingly being recognized as a powerful technique for laboratory testing. It offers the opportunity for global system evaluation of civil infrastructure systems subject to extreme dynamic loading, often with a significant reduction in time and cost. In this approach, a reference structure/system is partitioned into two or more substructures. The portion of the structural system designated as 'physical' or 'experimental' is tested in the laboratory, while other portions are replaced with a computational model. Many researchers have quite effectively used hybrid simulation (HS) and real-time hybrid simulation (RTHS) methods for examination and verification of existing and new design concepts and proposed structural systems or devices. This paper provides a detailed perspective of the enabling role that HS and RTHS methods have played in advancing the practice of earthquake engineering. Herein, our focus is on investigations related to earthquake engineering, those with CURATED data available in their entirety in the NEES Data Repository.

  • 경주 및 포항지진으로 인한 지하매설배관의 파열 및 누수가 발생하여 내진 안전성 확보의 중요성이 증대되고 있다. 배관시스템의 내진 확보를 위해 금속 벨로우즈 신축관이음이 적용되고 있다. 금속 벨로우즈는 일련의 주름 형상으로 제작되어 비교적 낮은 강성으로 유연하게 변형으로부터 대응한다. 금속 벨로우즈의 목적에 따라 다양한 주름 형상과 겹 수로 제작되고 이와 관련한 다양한 연구가 수행되었다. 하지만 산높이가 복합적인 벨로우즈의 전단 거동에 대한 내진성능을 평가한 연구는 미비하다. 따라서 본 연구는 복합적인 산 높이로 구현된 벨로우즈의 전단 내진성능을 분석하기 위한 단조하중실험, 점증반복하중실험 및 피로반복실험을 수행하였다. 실험은 한 겹 및 세 겹으로 제작된 벨로우즈를 대상으로 수행하였으며, 한 겹 보다 세 겹으로 제작된 벨로우즈의 최대 변형 및 피로 수명이 높은 것으로 평가되었다. 하지만 세 겹의 벨로우즈는 내압에 비해 높은 강성으로 주름산의 변형이 더 낮은 변위에서 발생하며, 복합적인 주름산의 높이와 관련하여 특정 조건에서는 누수가 빠르게 발생하였다. 피로 수명은 낮은 변형률에서 많은 겹 수의 벨로우즈가 높게 평가되었고, 높은 변형률에서는 동일한 피로 수명으로 수렴하였다.

  • Integral bridges are typically designed with flexible foundations that include one row of piles. The construction of integral bridges solves difficulties due to the maintenance of expansion joints and bearings during serviceability. It causes integral bridges to become more economic comparing with conventional bridges. Research has been focused not only to enhance the seismic performance of newly designed bridges, but also to develop retrofit strategies for existing ones. The local performance of the pile to abutment connection will have a major effect on the performance of the structure and the embedment length of pile inside the abutment has a key role to provide shear and flexural resistance of pile-abutment connections. In this paper, a simple method was developed to estimate the initial value of embedment length of the pile for retrofitting of specimens. Four specimens of pile-abutment connections were constructed with different embedment lengths of pile inside the abutment to evaluate their performances. The results of the experimentation in conjunction with numerical and analytical studies showed that retrofitting pile-abutment connections with CFRP wraps increased the strength of the connection up to 86%. Also, designed connections with the proposed method had sufficient resistance against lateral load.

  • In the shallow coastal area, located off the northwestern Taean Peninsula of the eastern Yellow Sea, geoacoustic models with two layers were reconstructed for underwater acoustic experimentation and modeling. The Yellow Sea experienced glacio-eustasy sea-level fluctuations during Quaternary period. Coastal sedimentation in the Yellow Sea was characterized by alternating terrestrial and shallow marine deposits that reflected the fluctuating sea levels. The coastal geoacoustic models were based on data from piston, grab cores and the high-resolution 3.5 kHz, chirp seismic profiles (about 70 line-kilometers, respectively). Geoacoustic data of the cores were extrapolated down to 3 m in depth for geoacoustic models. The geoacoustic property of seafloor sediments is considered a key parameter for modeling underwater acoustic environments. For simulating actual underwater environments, the P-wave speed of the models was adjusted to in-situ depth below the sea floor using the Hamilton method. The proposed geoacoustic models could be used for submarine acoustic inversion and modeling in shallow-water environments of the study area.
