Seismic performance of reinforced concrete interior beam-column joints with novel reinforcement detail

چکیده

Horizontal stirrups are normally required in reinforced concrete (RC) beam-column joints (BCJs) for resisting shear forces seismic design. For RC moment-resisting frames subjected to a high lateral load, large number of needed joint cores. This may cause reinforcement congestion, leading construction difficulty and insufficient compaction, which can result poor performance. In this study, novel detail the form unbonded diagonal bars mechanically anchored at beam ends is proposed interior BCJs. The alleviates congestion through partially replacing horizontal stirrups, improves performance BCJs by plastic hinge relocation input force reduction mechanisms. Four 2/3-scale BCJ specimens were prepared tested under quasi-static cyclic including one specimen designed with current code three adopting detail. Test results show that able relocate hinges away from beam-joint interfaces as well improve loading capacity, energy dissipation stiffness, bonding condition reinforcements within cores combined use significantly enhances cracking resistance reduces distortion, while additional amount marginal improvement. Moreover, an analytical model considering adequately predict failure mode capacity specimens.

Seismic Upgrade of Beam-Column Joints with FRP Reinforcement

Many opportunities are becoming available for using composite materials to strengthen/upgrade existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures. This paper focuses on a new technique for the seismic upgrade of RC beam-column connections in gravity load-designed (GLD) frames by the application (combined or not) of FRP rods and laminates. The FRP rods provide flexural strengthening, whereas the lay-up...

Seismic Behavior of Steel Reinforced Concrete Beam-Columns and Frames

The ability to perform accurate nonlinear simulations is a key component in the assessment of the behavior of seismic force resisting systems. A three-dimensional distributed plasticity formulation for composite beam-columns suitable for nonlinear static and dynamic analyses of composite seismic force resisting systems has been developed. New uniaxial constitutive relations are developed for th...

Effect of Reinforcement Grade and Ratio on Seismic Performance of Reinforced Concrete Columns

Reinforcement grades higher than 75 ksi (520 MPa) are not allowed in members that form plastic hinges due to a lack of information on material characteristics and on the seismic performance of columns constructed with high-strength steel (HSS) reinforcement. This research investigated the performance of reinforced concrete columns containing Grade 80 (minimum yield strength of 80 ksi [550 MPa])...
