A new type of joint between Concrete-filled Square Steel Tube columns and steel beam is proposed in this paper, and the seismic behavior of this type of joint under low-reversed cyclic loading experiment is researched. Ductility behavior, dissipation of seismic energy of this joint under horizontal, repeat load are analyzed. The experimental results showed that all specimens have good ductility and energy dissipation capacity. The story angle drift ductility ratios are μ=3.23~3.63, and the equivalent viscous damping coefficients are he=0.25~0.35,which meet the needs of the code for seismic design of building.

To study the seismic behavior of Double-Wall Precast Concrete (DWPC) shear wall, three full scale specimens are tested and compared under low-cyclic reversed loading, including two DWPC shear walls and one normal Cast-In-Situ (CIS) shear wall. By observing their experimental phenomena and failure modes, contrasting their displacement ductility coefficients, hysteretic curves, skeleton curves and energy dissipation capacity, the seismic behavior were synthetically evaluated on aspects of strength, stiffness, ductility and energy dissipation. Compared with CIS specimen, DWPC specimens have higher initial stiffness, increased cracking loads by 43% to 47%, and the ultimate loads increased by 22% to 23%. The displacement ductility ratios also meet the ductility requirements with value of 5. The hysteretic curves of three specimens are plump, and the trend of skeleton curves is basically the same. The DWPC specimens demonstrated a good energy dissipation capacity. All the specimens had shown favorable seismic performance.

This paper presents the difference between the results obtained with GenEcAm in simulating the seismic behavior of a P + 10E building equipped with SERB dampers modeled with two hysteresis models, namely the classic Bouc-Wen model and a Bouc-Wen modified model Bouc-Wen_Exp, in order to highlight the most appropriate theoretical model for modeling these dampers. The GenEcAm program is created by the author for the dynamic analysis during seism for structures of buildings equipped with different earthquake damping systems, with the possibility to use 9 different theoretical models of hysteresis for simulating the hysterical behavior of seismic energy dissipation devices that fit the antiseismic system of the analysed building.

This paper addresses the seismic behavior of coupling beams with headed reinforcing bars in coupled shear wall system. Test variable included the replacement ratios of headed reinforcing bars. The results show that Specimen HB 50 exhibits a better stable behavior in comparison with Specimens Specimen CON and Specimen HB 30. Test results showed that the amount of diagonal reinforcing bars in the coupling beam may be reduced when headed reinforcing bars are utilized.

A new damage-reduction based composite shear wall was proposed. It combines with three different energy dissipation units, which are the CFST column, SP deep beam and RC strip. The CFST column is set to be exposed outside or concealed inside the concrete. CFST columns and SP deep beams constitutes the core structure. During loading, RC strips between columns work with the core structure so as to reduce the damage and consume the energy. Four specimens with different design parameters, including 2 shear walls with exposed CFST columns and 2 with concealed CFST columns, were tested under horizontal cyclic loading. The load-bearing capacity, stiffness, hysteretic property, ductility, and failure characteristic of specimens have been analyzed. Results show that the deformation of this wall is just between that of the slotted shear wall and the entire shear wall. The RC strips reduce the damage and the core structure presents ductile behavior during load. The new wall is designed based on damage-reduction and it shows good seismic energy dissipation mechanics. It can be applied to the design of shear wall in high-rise buildings.

The hybrid coupled shear wall (HCW) with replaceable coupling beam (CB) is an optimal component to recover buildings promptly after a severe earthquake. However, the reinstallation may be difficult or impossible with an identical CB because of the inelastic relative dislocation between two wall piers. This study proposes a novel HCW with different reinforcement ratios in the connection, which was tested under cyclic loading. After the test, the bolt holes can be located through terrestrial scanning, which is then utilized to fabricate a new CB that can accommodate the deformation between two wall piers. The newly replaced HCW system was also tested. As a result, all virgin test specimens fail in web fracture and show a significant inelastic chord rotation of 0.2 rad, exhibiting an excellent energy dissipation capacity. Meanwhile, the new method to locate the bolt holes after the test is feasible. The replaced HCW fails in the pull-off of anchor bars and shows poor seismic behavior due to the unpatched concrete cover in the connection. To improve the energy dissipation for the replaced HCW, high-strength grouting in the connection can be used and high-strength material can be used to replace the usual anchor bolts.

A new type of construction employing shaped steels as boundary elements and layered braces of RC(Reinforced Concrete) short-pier shear wall is put forward. The braces are in X shape and are erected in a multi-storied form. They are embedded in the boundary zone and the web of SRC (Steel Reinforced Concrete) short-pier shear wall respectively to make it possible to improve the bearing capacity and ductility of this shear wall and to improve its seismic performance. Three half-scale specimens of the SRC short-pier shear wall are tested under reversed cyclic loading. High design axial load radio of 0.5 is used. The failure processes and modes of the specimens are observed. The law about bearing capacity and displacement ductility of the specimens influenced by the layered braces structures is revealed. The experimental results show that the displacement ductility is closely related to the amount of stories of braces. The specimens with layered braces structures have better ductility and larger bearing capacity, and therefore the layered braces structures effectively improve the seismic performance of the SRC short-pier shear wall.
