Abstract In this study an ambient vibration test, impact hammer test, and human excitation tests on a long-span full-scale modernized Hanok, which is one of the Korean traditional architectural structures were performed to identify its modal characteristics. Test results showed that the first two fundamental modes were beam and dori directional translation modes and the natural frequencies were 3.85Hz and 4.90Hz respectively. These values were larger than about 1.8-3.5 times in the first translation modes in similar-sized Korean traditional Hanoks. The increase of natural frequencies was mainly due to the significant decrease of the roof weight in modernized Hanok construction in spite of the stiffness reduction resulting from column-free long-span. The damping ratios of the translation modes were in the range of 2.5-3.5% and these values were similar to damping ratios of 1.5-4.5% measured in a traditional Hanok. Considering that the damping ratios of the building structures had amplitude dependent characteristics, the damping ratios of the Hanok structures were approximately two times larger than those of general RC or steel structures showing similar amplitude dynamic responses.
