By using finite element analysis software ABAQUS, the mechanical behavior of the beam-column joints is studied through analyzing 8 interior beam-column joints in RC frame. Meanwhile, the factors which can have effects on the behavior of the beam-column joints are also obtained. The reasonable parameters such as material constitutive, the boundary conditions and mesh types will directly affect the accuracy of finite element analysis results. The mechanical behavior of the beam-column joint in RC frame is decided by concrete strength and volumetric percentage of stirrups. With the increase of concrete strength and volumetric percentage of stirrups in joint core, the shear capacity of interior beam-column joints in RC frame is improved.

This thesis studies deeply the crack development characteristics, failure pattern, hysteresis curve and the displacement ductility of unbonded precast reinforced concrete frame, by analyzing one unbonded precast reinforced concrete frame under low reversed cyclic load test. We build a model using finite element analysis software to the test piece model analysis, the analysis result agree well with the experimental results. So we build finite element analysis models with different design parameters to analysis the impaction for seismic performance. Numerical analysis results can provide a scientific reference for the unbonded precast frame structure design.

The finite element analysis software-ANYSIS is used to calculate and analyze the deformation and mechanical performance of the abnormal joints core zone of variable beam shaped (reinforced concrete beam) under the positive and negative symmetric loads (simulate earthquake loads) . With the method of control variables, multiple finite element analysis models are set up and the focus is to explore the crack development, stress distribution and failure pattern in different stages. The compared conclusion shows that the shear failure of small joint core is the key to the whole joints core area for variable beam shaped.
