  • This paper introduces the acceptance criteria for reinforced concrete moment frames based on structural testing of ACI in preparing and proposes criteria for acceptable limiting drift and energy dissipation ratios of reinforced concrete shear walls for structural testing. Limiting drift and energy dissipation ratios were examined for tests on shear walls having ductile type failures. Test data were analyzed and compared to results for a suggested acceptance criteria that involves a limiting drift that is a function of aspect ratio a limiting energy dissipation ratio that is a function of displacement ductility and damping.

  • In this paper, a rule based Mamdani type fuzzy logic model for prediction of slippage at maximum tensile strength and slippage at rupture of structural lightweight concretes were discussed. In the model steel rebar diameters and development lengths were used as inputs. The FL model and experimental results, the coefficient of determination R2, the Root Mean Square Error were used as evaluation criteria for comparison. It was concluded that FL was practical method for predicting slippage at maximum tensile strength and slippage at rupture of structural lightweight concretes.

  • In this study, a formulation of the idealized plate element based upon the idealized structural unit method(ISUM) firstly proposed by Ueda et.al is made in an attempt to analyze the geometric nonlinear behaviour up to the buckling strength of thin-walled long structures like box-column structure including the coupling effect between local and global buckling. An application to the example box-column is also performed and it is found that the present method gives reliable results with consuming very short computing times and therefore is very useful for evaluation of the buckling strength of thin-walled long structures.

  • 본 학술기사에서는 최근 구조공학에 응용이 활성화되고 있는 퍼지 이론에 대하여 간단히 설명을 하였다. 그리고 퍼지이론의 구조공학 적용 예로, 본 저자가 수행한 퍼지이론을 이용한 원형 CFT의 구속응력 평가 과정을 간략히 소개하였다. 이 예에서도 알 수 있듯이 퍼지이론은 부정확성, 지식의 부족, 애매함에 기인하는 불확실성을 다루는데 있어 적합한 것을 알 수 있으며, 여러 불확성에 인하여 발생하는 오차를 줄이는데 적합한 것으로 판단된다.

  • The reliability analysis of structures subjected to stochastic loading involves evaluation of time and probability of the system's residence in a reference domain. In this paper, we derive an asymptotic estimate of exit time for multi-degrees-of-freedom structural systems. The system's dynamics is governed by the Lagrangian equations with linear dissipation and fast additive noise. The logarithmic asymptotic of exit time is found explicitly as a sum of two terms dependent on kinetic and potential energy of the system, respectively. As an example, we estimate exit time and an associated structural performance for a rocking structure.

  • This paper presents the research results of a light weight through topology optimization and structural safety evaluation through structural analysis of a pressure system structure installed in an off-shore plant. Conducting a structure design according to the wind load and the dynamic load at sea in addition to a self-load and structure stability evaluation are very important for structures installed in off-shore plants. In this study, the wind and dynamic load conditions according to the DNV classification rule was applied to the analysis. The topology optimization method was applied to the structure to obtain a lightweight shape. Phase optimization analysis confirmed the stress concentration portion. Topology optimization analysis takes the shape by removing unnecessary elements in the design that have been designed to form a rib shape. Based on the analysis results about the light weight optimal shape, a safety evaluation through structural analysis and suitability of the shape was conducted. This study suggests a design and safety evaluation of an off-shore plant structure that is difficult for structural safety evaluations using an actual test.

  • During mechanical demolition of RC structures, weights of dismantling equipment and demolition waste of building are applied to unexpected load which did not be considered during the design of structural member. Nevertheless, the loading of dismantling equipment and dismantling process are mainly dependent on field managers' field workers' or experiences without considering safety of structural member by a structural engineer. It is urgently required that reflecting actual circumstance of mechanical demolition, safety evaluation method to evaluate the safety and the guideline for appropriate capacity of structural member to support dismantling equipment weight, be provided. Through site investigation and questionnaire on field workers, this paper proposed demolition waste load, load factor, strength reduction factor, and so on. These are essential to safe evaluation of a building, ready to demolition. Considering actual circumstance of mechanical demolition, safety evaluation method of building and design method of slab and beam was suggested to a dilapidated building. An capability to loading of dismantling equipment was proposed, applied to RC slab and RC beam. Therefore, the suggested safety evaluation method and the guideline for an capability to loading of dismantling equipment weight can reasonably evaluate the capacity of structural member in demolition and use effectively as increasing efficiency and improving safety of demolition through proper management of dismantling equipments.
