Convergence IT Technology in Connection with Concrete Filled Steel Tube Development of Building Safety System

Abstract

The recent massive earthquake causes a lot of damage. To reduce earthquake damage, improved seismic retrofit techniques and maintenance systems are needed. In this study, a seismic reinforcement maintenance system that combines an advanced seismic reinforcement technology, CFT(Concrete Filled Steel Tube) and IoT(Internet of Things), is proposed. The proposed system collects information about seismic waves in real time and uses it to determine the seismic performance level of buildings. Secondary casualties can be reduced by alarming through an alarm system according to the seismic performance level during an earthquake.
