Reinforced concrete (RC) column component is a very important lateral force-resisting member which is widely used in China. Its seismic behavior has a great impact on the seismic performance of the overall structure. Damage of some reinforced concrete frame structures under the earthquake is caused by the damage of columns, So RC columns are an essential seismic members. The paper introduces the design of RC column specimen, mechanical properties of materials, production of RC column specimen, test method, loading device, loading system, the contents of measurement and data acquisition in detail. From the above analysis, it is obvious that the test is the most effective means of studying the seismic performance of column.

Reinforced concrete ( RC) frame structure is one type of building structure which is widely used in China. Damage of some reinforced concrete frame structures under the earthquake is caused by the damage of RC beams, So RC beams are an essential seismic members. The paper introduces the design of RC beam specimen, mechanical properties of materials, production of RC beam specimen, test method, loading device, loading system, the contents of measurement and data acquisition in detail. From the above analysis, it is obvious that the test is the most effective means of studying the seismic performance of beam.

The randomness and uncertainty of seismic demand and structural capacity are considered in demand-capacity factor method (DCFM) which could give confidence level of different performance objectives. Evaluation steps of investigating seismic performance of steel reinforced concrete structures with DCFM are put forward, and factors in calculation formula are modified based on stress characteristics of SRC structures. A regular steel reinforced concrete frame structure is analyzed and the reliability level satisfying four seismic fortification targets are calculated. The evaluation results of static and dynamic nonlinear analysis are compared which indicates that the SRC frame has better seismic performance and incremental dynamic analysis could reflect more dynamic characteristics of structures than pushover method.

Reinforced Concrete Frame Structures

In the era of big data, the efficient use of idle data in reinforced concrete structures has become a key issue in optimizing seismic performance evaluation methods for building structures. In this paper, based on the evaluation method of structural displacement seismic performance and based on the characteristics of high scalability and high fault tolerance of the cloud platform, the open source distributed and storage features of the Hadoop architecture cloud platform are introduced as a subproject of Apache Nutch project, Hadoop cloud platform. With features such as high scalability, high fault tolerance, and flexible deployment, the storage platform is secure, stable, and reliable. From the evaluation of the seismic performance of newly-built buildings and existing damaged buildings, according to the structural strength-ductility theory of the structure, the building structure resists earthquakes with its strength and ductility and buildings are divided into four categories. Due to the influence of time or seismic damage on the structure of reinforced concrete frame structures, their material properties are often deteriorating. Using the distributed computing design concept to efficiently process big data, a dynamic evaluation model for the seismic performance of reinforced concrete frame structures is established. A project of a 10-story reinforced concrete frame structure was selected for calculation and analysis; the engineering example was used to verify the accuracy and efficiency of the model, and the seismic performance of the floor was analyzed. It can be seen that the initial stiffness index of the structure is not sensitive to the damage location of the structure. The platform based on the concept of distributed computing big data processing can effectively improve the efficiency and accuracy of the evaluation of reinforced concrete frame structures.

Reinforced Concrete Frame Structures

The seismic performance of reinforced concrete members under earthquake excitation is different from that of whole structures; collapse mechanism may occur because of severe damage to individual members, even if the structural damage is not significant. Therefore, the potential seismic damage of each member should be investigated specifically apart from that of overall structure. In this study, a global damage model based on component classification is proposed to analyze the structural damage evolution rule and failure mechanism; then, the computed damage is compared with the experimental phenomena of three 1/3-scale models of three-storey, three-bay reinforced concrete frame structures under low-reversed cyclic loading. In addition, a probabilistic approach is finally adopted to quantify the seismic performance of RC frame structures based on the proposed global damage model. Results indicate that the structures with lower vertical axial force and beam-to-column linear stiffness ratio still maintain a certain load-bearing capacity even when the interstorey drift angle exceeds the elastoplastic limit value and the cumulative damage of structures is mainly concentrated on the beam ends and column bottoms of the first floor at final collapse. Moreover, the structural failure probability at different performance levels would increase significantly if reinforced concrete frame structures suffer ground motions higher than the design fortification intensity, even up to eight times.
