| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, the seismic resistance evaluation and improvement of the seismic resistance of the steel tower were examined based on many reports that the earthquake damage of the power transmission facility in the past caused enormous damage to the urban life over the wide area. A steel tower located on the main line was selected in Japan. From the viewpoint of adding damping to the tower, an analytical and experimental study was conducted on ensuring the safety of the tower against earthquakes and improving the earthquake resistance. As a result, it was confirmed that the seismic resistance of the tower was improved by applying the Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) (the pendulum type) to the tower as a seismic control device.

本研究では，制震装置として振り子式のTMDを鉄塔へ適用する事により，鉄塔本体の応答低減効果が確認でき，結果として耐震性向上が実現できる事を解析的，且つ実験的に確認した．本研究で検討した振り子式のTMDは，比較的容易に同調させる事が可能であり，取り付け構造の工夫により，容易に取り換える事が可能である．この為，本検討に用いたTMDは，現在運用されている多くの鉄塔への適用を想定した場合，新規取り付け時や損傷後の取り換え時に，効率的な設置を実現する制震装置であり，多数の鉄塔の耐震性向上に寄与すると考えられる．
