Based on the static test of large-scaled prestressed steel concrete frames, the behavior of crack were tested and investigated. In this paper, according to theory of reinforced concrete members, Code for design of concrete structures(GB 50010-2002)and code ACI 318—05, the formulas of cracking moment considering secondary axial forces were deduced and verified by test results. Conclusion can be drawn as follow: the calculation errors of formulas derive from theory of reinforced concrete members is small, generally less than 6%; the errors of formulas referring to Code for design of concrete structures(GB 50010-2002)is about 10%, which is satisfy the needs of engineering and simply to be calculated; Cracking moment calculated by formulas referring to code ACI 318—05 is less than test result, it is unsafe for engineering application.

The purpose of this study was to experimentally evaluate the effect of a hinged steel damping system on the shear behavior of a nonductile reinforced concrete frame with an opening. For the experimental test, a total of three full-scale reinforced concrete frame specimens were planned, based on the “no retrofitting” (NR) specimens with non-seismic details. The main research questions were whether the hinged steel damping system is reinforced and whether torsion springs are installed in the hinged steel damping system. From the results of the experiment, the hinged steel damping system (DR specimen) was found to be effective in seismic retrofitting, while isolating the opening of the reinforced concrete (RC) frame, and the torsion spring installed at the hinged connection (DSR specimen) was evaluated to be effective in controlling the amount of deformation of the upper and lower dampers. The strength, stiffness, and energy dissipation capacity of the DSR specimen were slightly improved compared to the DR specimen, and it was confirmed that stress redistribution was induced by the rotational stiffness of the torsion spring installed in the hinge connection between the upper and lower frames.
