Calibration of a Numerical Model for Masonry Infilled Rc Frames
This paper introduces a finite element scheme and a systematic calibration approach for masonry infilled RC frames. The modeling scheme combines the smeared crack approach with discrete crack elements to allow for the opening of diffused flexural and dominant shear cracks. It is, therefore, able to capture the nonlinear material behavior and the interaction of the infill wall with the bounding ...
متن کاملFinite Element Modeling and Mechanical Behavior of Masonry- Infilled RC Frame
During the analysis of reinforced concrete structures, the infill wall is usually simplified as a diagonal inclined strut to facilitate finite element modeling calculations. However, the actual seismic damage and single frame-filled wall pushover experimental results show that when the earthquake shear force is huge, the top of the infill wall and the beam–column connections are usually, thus t...
متن کاملInfluence of Masonry Infills Walls on the Seismic Behaviour of Multi-storey Waffle Slabs Rc Buildings
In this work, we analyze the influence of masonry infill walls on the seismic performance of waffle slabs reinforced concrete (RC) framed structures. We analyze buildings of three, five and eight storeys, which are representative for a big number of housings in Barcelona, Spain. Capacity spectra have been obtained by performing pushover analyses and we have used a simplified procedure to obtain...
متن کاملUncertainty in Seismic Capacity of Masonry Buildings
Seismic assessment of masonry structures is plagued by both inherent randomness and model uncertainty. The former is referred to as aleatory uncertainty, the latter as epistemic uncertainty because it depends on the knowledge level. Pioneering studies on reinforced concrete buildings have revealed a significant influence of modeling parameters on seismic vulnerability. However, confidence in me...
متن کاملPerformance Based Seismic Retrofit of Masonry Infilled Reinforced Concrete Frames Using Passive Energy Dissipation Devices
The paper presents a plastic analysis procedure based on the energy balance concept for performance based seismic retrofit of multi-story multi-bay masonry infilled reinforced concrete (R/C) frames with a ‘soft’ ground story using passive energy dissipation (PED) devices with the objective of achieving a target performance level of the retrofitted R/C frame for a given seismic hazard level at t...
