This book was released on 1995 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The objective of this research project is to investigate the inelastic behavior and hysteresis rules of low-rise RC perforated shear walls through a series of experimental and analytical studies based on various types of monotonic and earthquake loads. The results derived are then applied to seismic response analysis of box type structures as well as typical low-rise shear wall buildings. The studies also involve development of backbone curves of load-displacement relationship of individual walls, equivalent viscous damping of the walls, and sensitivity analysis of design paramenters for building systems. By observing the failure of cracked shear wall experimentally, a set of semi-empirical equations for backbone curve of perforated shear wall is obtained. Comparison between experimental results and calculated curves is favorable. Concept of energy dissipation is used to establish hysteresis rules which are based on dissipated energy envelopes calculated from experimental data for different loading states. Analytical formulation for a perforated shear wall element model is developed by using three springs: one nonlinear equivalent shear spring; two nonlinear axial springs. Total lateral displacement of a shear wall is a result of both flexure and shear. A four-story industrial building of box type consisting of solid shear walls without boundary columns and a three-story commercial building consisting of isolated columns as well as walls with boundary columns are studied for evaluating various design parameters in building code by using monotonic static analysis. The three-story building is also studied on the basis of dynamic analysis with Lorna Prieta earthquake (1989) and six simulated earthquakes. The sensitivity study of design parameters includes ductility reduction factor, force reduction factor, overstrength factor, and ratio of displacement amplification to force reduction factor. Results are recommended for future building code development"--Abstract, leaf iii.

Download or read book Critical comparison of major seismic codes for buildings written by fib Fédération internationale du béton and published by fib Fédération internationale du béton. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: fib Bulletin 69 illustrates and compares major buildings seismic codes applied in the different Continents, namely U.S., Japan, New Zealand, Europe, Canada, Chile and Mexico. Bulletin 69 was prepared by Task Group 7.6 of fib Commission 7, under the leadership of the late Professor Robert (Bob) Park which, in tandem with Professor Paulay, had developed in the seventies new fundamental design concepts, most notably capacity design approach and structural design for ductility, that had made the NZ seismic Code the most advanced one of the time. This new approach has highly influenced the development of Eurocode 8, to which Bob Park has significantly contributed. Bob Park was also well informed of the situation in Japan, USA, Canada and South America. Such a wide view is reflected in Bulletin 69 showing similarities and differences among the major seismic codes, accompanied as far as possible by comments, hopefully useful for fostering international harmonization. A comprehensive summary of the major codes is provided in the first chapter of the bulletin. All codes are separately presented according to a common framework: an introduction section, which describes the history, the philosophy, the process development, the performance-based criteria, the strength of materials and the incorporation of strength reduction factors of each code; a second section devoted to the demand side, which specify the seismic design actions and associated criteria of each code for areas of different seismicity and for structures with different ductility properties/requirements; a third section devoted to the capacity side, which describes the capacities of members and joints and associated criteria of each code, including member strengths in flexure, shear and bars anchorage, desirable hierarchies of strength attainment, deformation capacities of mechanisms of inelastic deformation, detailing of beams, columns and structural walls, detailing of beam-column joints for shear and the detailing of diaphragms. The second chapter is devoted to the comparison of the more significant issues dealt in the considered codes. This includes: seismic design actions and associated criteria, capacity design practice, beams, columns, confinement, structural walls and joints. It is felt that fib Bulletin 69 represents a useful, unique instrument for rapidly gaining an overview of the distinguishing features of the major world codes, under both their conceptual framework and application rules.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many reinforced concrete (RC) buildings built prior to implementation of seismic design provisions in the 1970s are non-ductile and are at risk of excessive damage or even collapse during a major earthquake. In this dissertation study, a low damage retrofit scheme for non-code performing RC shear walls was investigated. In the retrofit scheme, traditional monolithic RC shear walls were converted into rocking walls by introducing a cold joint at the wall foundation interface and by adding external post-tensioning. Two retrofitted rectangular RC shear walls were tested in laboratory to investigate the proposed retrofit scheme. The retrofitted shear walls showed minimized damage, improved self-centering but lower energy dissipation capacity in comparison to the benchmark shear wall. A novel scheme using Ultra-High-Performance Concrete (UHPC) was proposed and investigated using laboratory testing and finite element (FE) simulation to anchor external PT elements to existing foundation in the retrofitted shear walls. Four anchorage specimens, that were designed to anchor 2/5th of the maximum PT force expected in the retrofitted shear walls, were subjected to laboratory testing. 3D FE models were calibrated based on the measured response and were used to investigate the proposed anchorage scheme at full-scale. The current code provisions to limit residual drift and predict critical concrete strains in precast rocking shear walls were examined based on published results. The provisions on residual drift were found to be satisfactory for hybrid rocking walls. Two code-conforming rectangular hybrid rocking shear walls were tested in the laboratory to provide improve alternative for predicting plastic hinge length in rocking walls, which is critical in estimating critical concrete strain.Laboratory testing of precast rocking shear walls has been limited to rectangular cross section. This dissertation addresses the gap in literature by testing a T-shaped precast rocking shear wall. The test specimen was designed in accordance with current design guidelines, at one-third scale of a prototype wall and tested under multi-directional loading up to 1.50% drift. Test observations showed damage to be limited at the rocking corners. The measured residual drift was lower than 0.25% and the measured energy dissipation ratio exceeded the prescribed limit of 12.5%.

Download or read book Reinforced Concrete Shear Walls with Welded Wire Grids as Boundary Element Transverse Reinforcement written by Mansour Navidpour and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reinforced concrete shear walls as seismic force resisting systems may experience inelastic deformations if subjected to strong seismic excitations. These walls are designed to provide strength, stiffness, energy dissipation capacity and lateral drift control for seismic resistance. Shear wall deformability is largely dependent on adequate confinement of core concrete in boundary elements, prevention of longitudinal bar buckling, as well as proper design and detailing of the web section. Conventional transverse reinforcement placed in shear wall boundary elements consists of hoops, overlapping hoops and crossties, based on the geometry and number of longitudinal bars used. The confinement steel requirement of current building codes (ACI 318 or CSA A23.3) often results in congestion of steel cage due to the high transverse reinforcement ratio required. Placing multiple hoops with 135-degree bends combined with crossties to satisfy the code confinement requirements can create concrete placement and construction problems. In addition, the required time to assemble conventional steel cages with multiple individual ties per spacing can be time consuming, potentially impacting the overall cost and duration of construction. Welded Wire Reinforcement (WWR) is available in the construction industry as concrete reinforcement in the form of welded wire fabric (WWF) manufactured from relatively small diameter wires in comparison to the bar sizes typically used in structural applications. As an alternative to using conventional transverse hoops, prefabricated WWR grids can be used to provide required transverse reinforcement in boundary elements. WWR grids are manufactured using robots to weld cut steel pieces accurately before they are shipped to the job site, resulting in better construction quality and reduced construction time. However, research on the use of WWR is limited in the literature. Further experimental and analytical research is needed to establish design requirements for such reinforcement, especially when used in earthquake resistant construction with requirements for ductile response. The current research project, involved three main phases; i) tests of 3 large-scale reinforced concrete shear walls with WWR grids used as boundary element transverse reinforcement, ii) material tests of grid samples, including those cast in concrete, iii) non-linear finite element analysis. The wall tests were conducted under slowly-applied lateral deformation reversals to investigate their strength and ductility for suitability as seismic resistant structural elements. Material tests were conducted to have a better understanding of WWR behavior, especially their weld capacity. Analytical research was undertaken to expand the experimental findings on shear wall behavior, as well as to conduct parametric investigation to understand the impact of changes in grid strength and ductility. The results indicated that WWR grids can be used as boundary element transverse reinforcement in earthquake resistant shear wall. However, strength and ductility of grids should be established carefully prior to such application. Design strength of WWR grids should be established through burst tests to ensure ductile yielding of wire reinforcement prior to premature weld failure. Those grids that exhibit weld failures may be used with reduced design strength to permit the development of sufficient inelastic deformability in flexure-dominant shear walls.
