Abstract

This experimental study was conducted to evaluate the in-plane and out-of-plane seismic performances of an unreinforced masonry walls (URMs) strengthened with prestressed steel-bar truss systems developed in the present investigation. The truss systems were installed on both faces of the walls. All the wall specimens were subjected to lateral in-plane or out-of-plane cyclic loads at the fixed gravity stress of 0.25 MPa. The seismic performance of the strengthened specimens was compared to that measured in the counterpart URM. When compared with the lateral load-displacement curve of the URM, the strengthened walls exhibited the following improvements: 190% for initial stiffness, 180% for peak strength, 610% for accumulated energy dissipation capacity, and 510% for equivalent damping ratio under the in-plane state; the corresponding improvements under the out-of-plane state were 230% for initial stiffness, 190% for peak strength, 240% for accumulated energy dissipation capacity, and 120% for equivalent damping ratio, respectively. These results indicate that the developed technique is very promising in enhancing the overall seismic performance of URM.

이 연구에서는 강봉 트러스 시스템으로 보강된 조적벽체의 면내·외 거동에 대한 내진성능을 평가하였다. 강봉 트러스 시스템 보강은 무보강 조적벽체 1면에 2개의 강봉 트러스 시스템 유닛을 배치하였다. 면내 거동에 대한 실험결과는 무보강 조적벽체 및 벽체 1면에 1개의 강봉 트러스 시스템 보강된 조적벽체와 비교하였으며, 면외 거동에 대한 실험결과는 무보강 조적벽체와 비교하였다. 실험 결과, 강봉 트러스 시스템으로 보강된 조적벽체의 면내·외 초기 강성은 무보강 조적벽체에 비해 각각 1.9배 및 2.3배 높았으며, 면내·외 최대 내력은 각각 1.8배 및 1.9배 높았다. 특히 강봉 트러스 시스템으로 보강된 조적벽체의 면내·외 에너지 소산능력은 무보강 조적벽체에 비해 각각 6.1배 및 2.4배 높았으며, 등가 감쇠비는 각각 5.1배 및 1.2배 높았다. 즉, 강봉 트러스 시스템은 무보강 조적벽체의 면내 방향으로의 내진성능 향상뿐만 아니라 면외 방향으로의 내진성능 향상에도 유리할 것으로 판단된다.
