Abstract

On November 15, 2017, the second strongest earthquake occurred in Korea, which was 5.4 in size on the Richter Scale. The duration of the earthquake was short, but the damage was serious. Two recent earthquakes have shown that our country is no longer safe from earthquakes. However, to date, Korean structures are showing a low earthquake resistance, and seismic retrofitting is necessary in preparation for a large-scale earthquake. In this study, reinforcing effect of steel slit damper was analyzed based on the dynamic test results of the previously studied reinforced concrete frame. After that, push over analysis and nonlinear time history analysis using OpenSees were selected for the residential piloti-type building as the target building. In the above Korean earthquake, the damage to the piloti-type building was conspicuous. Through analysis, the vulnerable part of the piloti-type building was identified and the seismic strengthening with the steel slit damper was carried out.
