This paper presents a nonlinear finite element analysis of non-seismically detailed RC beam column connections under reversed cyclic load. The test of half-scale nonductile reinforced concrete beam-column joints was conducted. The tested specimens represented those of the actual mid-rise reinforced concrete frame buildings designed according to the non-seismic provisions of the ACI building code.  The test results show that specimens representing small and medium column tributary area failed in brittle joint shear while specimen representing large column tributary area failed by ductile flexure though no ductile reinforcement details were provided. The nonlinear finite element analysis was applied to simulate the behavior of the specimens. The finite element analysis employs the smeared crack approach for modeling beam, column and joint, and employs the discrete crack approach for modeling the interface between beam and joint face. The nonlinear constitutive models of reinforced concrete elements consist of coupled tension-compression model to model normal force orthogonal and parallel to the crack and shear transfer model to capture the shear sliding mechanism. The FEM shows good comparison with test results in terms of load-displacement relations, hysteretic loops, cracking process and the failure mode of the tested specimens. The finite element analysis clarifies that the joint shear failure was caused by the collapse of principal diagonal concrete strut.

Steel Reinforced Concrete

Nonlinear finite element analysis of abnormal exterior joints consist of Steel Reinforced Concrete column and Reinforced Concrete beam was performed using ABAQUS computation program, the joints failure mode and the skeleton curve were calculated. Comparison with experimental results to prove the reliability of finite element analysis. Then, the paper analyzed different parameters which affect the joints loading capacity, the results indicate that to a certain extent, the eccentricity of the upper and lower column sections and steel ratio both have important effects on the stiffness and ultimate loading capacity of the joints; with the increment of the ratio of axial compression, the joints ductility will be reduced.
