Composite Shear

To improve the seismic behavior of shear walls, a new composite shear wall composed of a steel-fiber-reinforced high-strength concrete (SFRHC) web and two square concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns, namely a steel-fiber-reinforced concrete shear wall with CFST columns, is proposed in this paper. Therefore, the main purpose of this paper is to present an experimental investigation of the seismic behavior of the SFRHC shear wall with CFST columns. Pseudo-static tests were carried out on seven composite shear walls, and the seismic performance of the shear walls was studied and quantified in terms of the aspects of energy consumption, ductility and stiffness degradation. Furthermore, the experimental results indicated that adding steel fiber can effectively restrain the crack propagation of composite shear walls and further help to improve the ductility and energy dissipation capacity of composite shear walls and delay the degradation of their lateral stiffness and force. Moreover, the seismic behavior of the SFRHC shear wall with CFST columns was obviously superior to that of the conventionally reinforced shear wall, in terms of load-bearing capacity, ductility, stiffness and energy dissipation capacity, because of the confinement effect of the CFST columns on the web. Finally, the preliminary study demonstrated that the composite shear wall has good potential to be used in regions with high seismic risk.

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.

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.

Composite Shear

The concept of steel-concrete composite shear wall is introduced due to the benefits achieved by integrating both the materials. These are structural walls, where steel profiles are encased at the boundary elements. Due to their higher lateral strength and stiffness, they offer a good alternative to improve earthquake resistance over conventional reinforced concrete shear walls in medium and high-rise buildings. Current literature shows that, design procedure of such composite shear walls is not addressed in developing country codes. Hence, a design of steel-concrete composite shear wall is proposed in the present paper on the basis of existing theory and with the help of standard codes. The web portion of shear wall has to be designed as per provisions of Eurocode 8. For the design of composite boundary elements, design norms of composite columns are followed. Also the design of shear stud connectors is adopted according to Eurocode 4.

Composite Shear

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.

In this paper, the seismic behavior of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthened and unstrengthened steel fiber-reinforced high-strength concrete frame joints under low cyclic loading was tested. Then, the nonlinear finite element program was used to simulate the seismic behavior of FRP strengthened and unstrengthened steel fiber-reinforced high-strength concrete frame joints under low cyclic repeated load. The influence of FRP bond direction on the seismic behavior of steel fiber-reinforced high-strength concrete frame joints was studied. Through the comparison of the test values and numerical simulation values of the hysteretic curve, skeleton curve, energy dissipation capacity, displacement ductility, bearing capacity degradation, stiffness degradation, and other performance indexes of frame joints, the rule was obtained. The results showed that the 45° bonding direction of carbon fiber cloth is better than the 0° bonding direction, and the digital simulation results are in good agreement with the test results. Therefore, the constitutive model, element, end constraint, and loading method used in the finite element numerical simulation of this paper were reasonable, which can provide reference for the similar research in the future.

Composite Shear

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.
