In this paper, a core wall structure coupled with connecting beams is discretized and modeled as an equivalent thin-walled member with closed section, while the connecting beams between openings are replaced by an equivalent shear diaphragm. Then, a numerical method (finite member element method, FMEM) for dynamic analysis of the core wall structure is proposed. The numerical method combines the advantages of the FMEM and Vlasov's thin-walled beam theory and the effects of torsion, warping and, especially, the shearing strains in the middle surface of the walls are considered. The results presented in this paper are very promising compared with the ones obtained from finite element method.

Excavation of underground openings changes stress distribution around the opening. The survey of this disturbed zone in excavation is very important to design and construct underground facilities, such as tunnel, gas and oil storage, power plant and disposal site of high- and low-level radioactive wastes. This paper presents a zoning of rock masses with tunnel excavation using PS logging. Compressional and shear wave velocities are measured in boreholes drilled in the tunnel wall, which was constructed with blasting and/or machine excavation. The disturbed zone in excavation can be estimated by comparing PS logging data with a tomographic image of compressional wave velocity and compressional and shear wave velocities of core samples. In the side wall of tunnel, the disturbed zone reaches 1.5 m and 1.0 m in thickness for blocks of blasting and machine excavations, respectively. In the roof of tunnel, however, the disturbed zone is 1.0 m and 0.75 m thick for the two blocks. These results show that the width of the disturbed zone is larger in the side wall of tunnel than in the roof, and 1.3 to 1.5 times larger for the blasting excavation than for the machine excavation.

대부분의 전단벽 구조물은 통로의 목적으로 개구부를 필요로 하게 되고 전단벽들 사이가 슬래브나 연결보로 연결된 병렬 전단벽의 형태를 띠게 된다. 이러한 구조물에 지진하중이 작용할 때 연결보에 과도한 전단력이 작용하여 연결보가 취성적으로 파괴되거나 전단벽이 먼저 항복하는 문제점이 발생할 수 있다. 이를 방지하기 위하여 연결보에 감쇠장치를 설치하게 되면 구조물의 진동제어효과와 더불어 연결보의 응력집중 및 취성적 파괴를 막을 수 있어서 내진성능 향상을 기대할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 병렬전단벽 연결보 중앙부에 LRB (Lead Rubber Bearing)가 설치된 구조물의 지진응답제어효과 및 응력의 분포를 평가하여 구조적 효율성을 확인하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 병렬전단벽의 거동을 비교적 정확하게 모사할 수 있는 모형화 방법을 제안하였고, 제안된 모형화 방법을 통하여 지진하중을 받는 예제 병렬구조물에 대한 시간이력해석을 수행한 후 지진응답제어성능을 검토하였다.

One of the most popular and commonly used strengthening techniques to protect against earthquakes is to infill the holes in reinforced concrete (RC) frames with fully reinforced concrete infills. In some cases, windows and door openings are left inside infill walls for architectural or functional reasons during the strengthening of reinforced concrete-framed buildings. However, the seismic performance of multistory, multibay, reinforced concrete frames that are strengthened by reinforced concrete wing walls is not well known. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the experimental behavior of vulnerable multistory, multibay, reinforced concrete frames that were strengthened by introducing wing walls under a lateral load. For this purpose, three 2-story, 2-bay, 1/3-scale test specimens were constructed and tested under reversed cyclic lateral loading. The total shear wall (including the column and wing walls) length and the location of the bent beam bars were the main parameters of the experimental study. According to the test results, the addition of wing walls to reinforced concrete frames provided significantly higher ultimate lateral load strength and higher initial stiffness than the bare frames did. While the total shear wall length was increased, the lateral load carrying capacity and stiffness increased significantly.

Recently, in newly constructed apartment buildings, the exterior wall structures have been characterized by thinness, having various openings, and a significantly low reinforcement ratio. In this study, a nonlinear finite element analysis was performed to investigate the crack damage characteristics of the exterior wall structure. The limited analysis models for a 10-story exterior wall were constructed based on the prototype apartment building, and nonlinear static analysis (push-over analysis) was performed. Based on the finite element (FE) analysis model, the parametric study was conducted to investigate the effects of various design parameters on the strength and crack width of the exterior walls. As the parameters, the vertical reinforcement ratio and horizontal reinforcement ratio of the wall, as well as the uniformly distributed longitudinal reinforcement ratio and shear reinforcement ratio of the connection beam, were addressed. The analysis results showed that the strength and deformation capacity of the prototype exterior walls were limited by the failure of the connection beam prior to the flexural yielding of the walls. Thus, the increase of wall reinforcement limitedly affected the failure modes, peak strengths, and crack damages. On the other hand, when the reinforcement ratio of the connection beams was increased, the peak strength was increased due to the increase in the load-carrying capacity of the connection beams. Further, the crack damage index decreased as the reinforcement ratio of the connection beam increased. In particular, it was more effective to increase the uniformly distributed longitudinal reinforcement ratio in the connection beams to decrease the crack damage of the coupling beams, regardless of the type of the prototype exterior walls.

The Monte Carlo procedure was used to simulate wind load effects on a light-frame low-rise structure of irregular shape and a main wind force resisting system. Two analytical models were studied: rigid-beam and rigid-plate models. The models assumed that roof diaphragms were rigid beam or rigid plate and shear walls controlled system behavior and failure. The parameters defining wall stiffness, including imperfections, were random and included wall stiffness, wall capacity and yield displacements. The effect of openings was included in the simulation via a set of discrete multipliers with uniform distribution. One and two-story buildings were analyzed and the models can be expanded into multiple-floor structures provided that the assumptions made in this paper are not violated.

This paper describes, firstly, on analytical method of computing the eigenvalues of vertical vibration of ships, taking into account for the distribution of hull weight including added mass and the effect of shear deflection and rotary inertia. The frequency equation is solved by Galerkins method into form of numerical integration. Applying the above described equation, model experiment of vertical vibration was carried out in order to varify the validity of the analytical method of vertical vibration. The model, which was made of acrylite plate, was ship-shaped wall-sided vessel with bulkheads, deck openings, and fore and after peak tank at both ends. The results of experiments carried out both in air and on water showed that the observed natural frequencies and the observed patterns of natural modes of vibration were in good agreement with analytically calculated values for 2,3, and 4-node vibration.

Shear wall systems behave as individual wall because of openings like window and elevator cage. When coupling beams are installed in shear walls, they will have high strength and stiffness so that be less damaged by lateral loads like earthquake. However, coupling beam is difficult construction method. And arranging reinforcement of slender coupling beams are especially hard. It is because the details of coupling beam provided by ACI 318 are complex. In this paper, experiments were conducted using coupling beams with 3.5 aspect ratio to improve the details of slender coupling beams provided by ACI 318. Two specimens were proposed for this study. One specimen applied with bundled diagonally reinforcement only. Another specimen applied both bundled diagonally reinforcement and High-Performance Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Composite (HPFRCC) so that coupling beams have half of transverse reinforcement. All specimen were compared with a coupling beam designed according to ACI 318 and were evaluated with hysteretic behaviors. Test results showed that the performance of two specimen suggested in this study were similar to that of coupling beam designed according to current criteria. And it was considered that simplification of the details of reinforcement would be available if transverse reinforcement was reduced by using bundled diagonally reinforcement and HPFRCC.

초고층 건축물의 선행 코어 후행 슬래브 접합부, 지하 연속벽과 바닥구조의 접합부, 임시 개구부 등 신구 콘크리트 접합부의 철근 이음을 위하여, 다수의 커플러를 전단키가 있는 얇은 강판에 설치한 철근 이음용 매립 강판이 최근 개발되었다. 이 공법을 사용한 접합부의 구조 성능을 검증하기 위하여, 벽체-슬래브 접합부에 대한 반복하중 실험을 실시하였다. 비교를 위해 기존에 사용되는 굽힌 철근 박스를 이용한 접합부와 이음이 없는 접합부도 함께 실험하였다. 실험 결과 철근 이음용 매립 강판을 사용한 접합부는 이음이 없는 접합부와 동일하게 [인장철근 항복]-[충분한 휨변형]-[압축 콘크리트 압괴] 후 압축 철근의 좌굴로 파괴되었다. 따라서 설계에서 가정한 충분한 연성 거동을 확인할 수 있었다. 반면, 굽힌 철근 박스를 사용한 접합부의 경우, 탄성구간에서는 철근 이음용 매립 강판과 유사하게 거동하였으나, 측면 피복 콘크리트가 빨리 탈락되었으며, 슬래브 상하부면의 겹침이음 구간에 부착 균열이 다수 발생하였다. 최종적으로 이음 없는 실험체 및 철근 이음용 매립 강판을 사용한 실험체에 비해 강도와 변형능력이 저하되었다. 또한 굽힌 후편 철근을 겹침이음한 실험체가 철근 이음용 매립 강판을 적용한 경우에 비해 강성 저하가 빠르게 진행되었다. 굽힌 후편 철근의 탄성계수는 직선 철근에 비해 낮고, 완전한 직선으로 펼 수 없기 때문에 인장력을 받으면서 일부 구간이 펴지므로 접합부의 강성을 저하시킨 것으로 판단된다. 2종류의 철근 지름(D13, D16)과 강종(SD300, SD400)에 대해, 철근이음용 매립 강판을 적용한 접합부는 공칭 강도를 충분히 상회하였다. 그러나 굽힌 후 편 철근을 사용하면 강종이 높을수록 그리고 지름이 굵을수록 휨강도가 저하되었다. 따라서 굽힌 후 편 철근의 사용에 주의가 필요하다.
