To study the antiseismic performance of the high-strength concrete composite shear wall with built-in steel plates, an experiment on a high-strength concrete composite shear wall with four built-in steel plates (SPRCW-1∼4) was set up. Based on the experimental result, the paper discusses the antiseismic performance, failure mode, and failure mechanism of the high-strength concrete composite shear wall with built-in steel plates under different steel ratios and different positions of steel plates. The experimental result has shown that the differences in steel plate position and steel ratios have certain effects on wall cracking. The use of high steel content and the placement of steel plates on both sides of the wall can limit wall cracking to some extent. When the bearing capacity of the steel plates located on both sides of the wall is larger than that in the middle of the wall, a high content of steel in the wall can effectively increase the bearing capacity of the test piece to some extent. Under a high axial compression ratio, the horizontal bar of the wall can substantially limit the vertical cracks in concrete arising from compression. Moreover, the built-in steel plates in the shear wall play a significant role in inhibiting the propaganda of the oblique cracks under the action of earthquakes. The research result has very good economy and operability and can provide a basis for promotion and application of the mid- and high-rise buildings in regions with high seismic intensity.

Four test pieces with different steel plate center-to-center distances and reinforcement ratios are subjected to low-cycle repeat quasistatic loading to optimize properties as failure mode, hysteretic curve, skeleton curve, energy dissipation parameters, strength parameters, and seismic performance of high-strength concrete low-rise shear walls. The embedded steel plates are shown to effectively restrict wall crack propagation, enhance the overall steel ratio, and improve the failure mode of the wall while reducing the degree of brittle failure. Under the same conditions, increasing the spacing between the steel plates in the steel plate concrete shear wall can effectively preserve the horizontal bearing capacity of the shear wall under an ultimate load. The embedded steel plates perform better than concealed bracing in delaying stiffness degeneration in the low-rise shear walls, thus safeguarding their long-term bearing capacity. The results presented here may provide a workable basis for shear wall design optimization.

Based on the experimental study of normal-section bearing capacity of four steel reinforced high-strength concrete (SRHC) L-shape short pier shear walls with two-way eccentric compressive load, this thesis discussed the failure pattern and working mechanism and get some general laws about normal-section baring capacity of this kind of specimens. The research results show that: the failure pattern of SRHC L-shape short pier shear wall with two-way eccentric compressive load is classified into two types-large eccentric compression and small eccentric compression; the sectional strain basically fit the plane-section assumption; steel and concrete can practically work cooperatively until the specimens are damaged and the steel of compressive region yielded; the normal section baring properties of the perforated frame member and the trussed frame member were fairly close to each other and the trussed frame has no advantage compared with the perforated one.

Plastic Analysis

In this study, an experimental study and numerical calculations using fiber model were conducted for four high-strength concrete shear walls with boundary columns under low cyclic load. The boundary column and shear wall were divided into fiber elements, and PERFORM-3D finite element analysis software was used to carry out push-over analysis on the test specimens. The results show that the finite element analysis results were in good agreement with the experimental results. The proposed analysis method could perform elasto-plastic analysis on the high-strength concrete shear wall with boundary columns without distinguishing the categories of frame column and shear wall. The seismic performance of high-strength concrete shear wall with boundary columns was analyzed using the following parameters: axis compression ratio, height to width ratio, ratio of vertical reinforcement, and ratio of longitudinal reinforcement in the boundary column. The results show that the increase in the axial compression ratio causes the bearing capacity of the shear wall to increase at first and then to decrease and causes the ductility to decrease. The increase in the height to width ratio causes the bearing capacity of the shear wall to decrease and its ductility to increase. The ratio of vertical reinforcement was found to have little effect on the bearing capacity and ductility. The increase in the ratio of longitudinal reinforcement in boundary column resulted in a significant increase in the bearing capacity and caused the ductility to decrease at first and then to slowly increase.

Composite Shear

Composite shear walls are widely used in high-rise buildings because of their high bearing capacity. To improve the bearing capacity of ordinary shear walls, restraining elements are usually installed at both boundaries or within the wall body. In this article, two different restraining elements, namely, a rectangular steel tube and a column-type reinforcement (the whole wall body was restrained by segmented stirrups and tied by diagonal bars), were applied to the boundary frame and wall body of the shear wall either jointly or separately. A new type of steel-concrete composite shear wall, referred to as a composite shear wall incorporating a concrete-filled steel tube boundary and column-type reinforced wall, was proposed. In addition, three specimens with different restraining elements, namely, a column-type reinforced shear wall, a concrete-filled steel tube boundary shear wall and an ordinary reinforced concrete shear wall, were presented for comparison. The influences of the two different restraining elements on the seismic performance and bearing capacity of the shear walls were analyzed from four perspectives of failure mode, hysteresis behavior, stiffness and residual deformation, and the equivalent lateral pressures of the two restraining elements were calculated. Based on the plane-section assumption, expressions for the crack, yield, peak and ultimate bearing capacities were derived, and the effects of the two restraining elements on the peak and ultimate bearing capacities were considered. The results show that these two restraining elements significantly improved the bearing capacity of the shear wall specimens, and the concrete-filled steel tube restraining element was more effective than the column-type reinforced restraining element. Finally, the calculated values of the bearing capacity of the four different restraining elements of the shear wall specimens proposed in this article were in good agreement with the experimental values.

The Impact

The use of high strength concrete (HSC) in multi-story buildings has become increasingly popular. Selection of HSC over normal strength concrete (NSC) allows for reducing the dimensions of the columns sections. However, this reduction has consequences on the structural performance in case of fire, as smaller cross sections lead to faster temperature increase in the section core. Besides, HSC experiences higher rates of strength loss with temperature and a higher susceptibility to spalling than NSC. The fire performance of a column can thus be affected by selecting HSC over NSC. This research performs a comparison of the fire performance of HSC and NSC columns, based on numerical simulations by finite element method. The thermal and structural analyses of the columns are conducted with the software SAFIR®. The variation of concrete strength with temperature for the different concrete classes is adopted from Eurocode. Different configurations are compared, including columns with the same load bearing capacity and columns with the same cross section. The relative loss of load bearing capacity during the fire is found to be more pronounced for HSC columns than for NSC columns. The impact on fire resistance rating is discussed. These results suggest that consideration of fire loading limits the opportunities for use of HSC, especially when the objective is to reduce the dimensions of the columns sections.
