Abstract

In this paper, the seismic performance evaluation was performed on 100 existing open-cut power cable tunnels, including ones that did not consider seismic design, in order to verify that the government's demand level (seismic special grade, 0.22 g). The results of the seismic performance evaluation show that most of the tunnels have seismic performance of 0.3 to 1 g, satisfying the level of the seismic special grade and securing the seismic safety. Meanwhile, the earthquake response analysis and structural test were performed to verify the validity of the method and the results of the seismic performance evaluation of the tunnels by the response displacement method, and to verify their seismic safety. As a result, the relative displacement due to the response displacement method under the 0.22 g earthquake was conservative than the results of the earthquake response analysis, and the results of load-displacement curves and response modification coefficient calculation by real scale structural tests showed the safety of the tunnels.

본 논문에서는 내진설계가 고려되어 있지 않은 전력구를 포함한 기설 개착식 전력구 100개소를 대상으로, 정부의 요구수준(내진 특등급, 0.22 g)을 만족하는지 확인하기 위하여 내진성능 평가를 수행하였다. 내진성능 평가 결과, 대상 전력구들은 대부분 0.3-1 g의 내진성능을 보유하고 있는 것으로 나타나, 내진 특등급 수준을 만족하였으며 내진안전성을 확보하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 응답변위법에 의한 전력구의 내진성능 평가 방법 및 결과에 대한 타당성을 확인하고, 전력구의 내진 안전성을 검증하기 위한 지진응답 해석 및 구조실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 0.22 g 수준의 지진 하에서 응답변위법에 의한 상대변위는 지진응답 해석 결과보다 보수적이었으며, 실규모 구조실험에 의한 하중-변위 곡선 및 응답수정계수 산정 결과를 통해 전력구의 내진 안전성을 확인할 수 있었다.
