Based on the plain cross section presume, with material T-section boundary calculation unit, 15 steel reinforced concrete T-shaped columns(SRCTSC) have made nonlinear full-rang numerical analysis. It demonstrates that the most adverse curvature ductility load angle of SRCCRSC is 180°.Loading angle ( ), axial compression ratio ( ), and the ratio of spacing and diameter of longitudinal reinforcements (s/d) are the principal factors in curvature ductility of SRCTSC subjected to biaxial eccentric compression. It include 36 sets for load angle, 6 sets for axial load ratio, 3 sets for concrete strength, 3 sets for the content of steel, 2 sets for steel style, 3 sets for stirrup ratio, 3 sets for steel location, 3 sets for section size, 3 sets for stirrup diameter about SRCTSC. The ductile behavior of T-shaped, with calculating 1068 loading conditions, are investigated. It concluded that axial load ratio, load angle, and ratio of the spacing of stirrups and longitudinal reinforcement’s diameter (s/d) are most important factors.

Based on the experiment of eight reinforced concrete T-shaped columns under low cyclic load, the factors which affect bearing capacity and seismic behavior, such as limb length, axial load ratio, stirrup ratio and the arrangement of longitudinal bars, etc., are analyzed. Tests results show that the bearing capacity of the columns increases, but the ductility is decreased with an increase of axial load ratio. The bearing capacity of T-shaped column increases when the web gets longer, while its deformability and ductility decrease. Besides, increase of stirrup ratio and longitudinal bars in the end of the web also have effect on the ductility of the columns.

The latest version of the Standard for Structural Calculation of Reinforced Concrete Structures, published by the Architectural Institute of Japan in 2010 [1], allows the design of shear walls with rectangular cross sections in addition to shear walls with boundary columns at the end regions (referred to here as “barbell shape”). In recent earthquakes, several reinforced concrete (RC) shear walls were damaged by flexural failures through concrete compression crushing accompanied with buckling of longitudinal reinforcement in the boundary areas. Damage levels have clearly been shown to be related to drift in structures; this is why drift limits are in place for structural design criteria. A crucial step in designing a structure to accommodate these drift limits is to model the ultimate drift capacity. Thus, in order to reduce damage from this failure mode, the ultimate drift capacity of RC shear walls needs to be estimated accurately. In this paper, a parametric study of the seismic behaviour of RC shear walls was conducted using a fibre-based model to investigate the influence of basic design parameters including concrete strength, volumetric ratio of transverse reinforcement in the confined area, axial load ratio and boundary column dimensions. This study focused on ultimate drift capacity for both shear walls with rectangular sections and shear walls with boundary columns. The fibre-based model was calibrated with experimental results of twenty eight tests on shear walls with confinement in the boundary regions. It was found that ultimate drift capacity is most sensitive to axial load ratio; increase of axial load deteriorated ultimate drift capacity dramatically. Two other secondary factors were: increased concrete strength slightly reduced ultimate drift capacity while increased shear reinforcement ratio and boundary column width improved ultimate drift capacity.

Nonlinear numerical analysis for the force performance of frame middle joint is processed in this paper with the finite element software of ABAQUS. Compared with experimental results, numerical analysis results are found to be reasonable. Then the influence of factors such as shaped steel ratio and axial-load ratio are contrastively analyzed. The results show that shaped steel ratio has a greater influence on the bearing capacity and hysteretic performance of the structure, but the axial-load ratio has less influence.

Based on the plain cross section presume, with material cross-section boundary calculation unit, 15 steel reinforced concrete cross-shaped columns(SRCCSC) have made nonlinear full-rang numerical analysis.

Experimental research activities and post-earthquake considerations have demonstrated that reinforcedconcrete columns with light or widely spaced transverse reinforcement are vulnerable to shear failure duringearthquakes. According to this point by using failure limit curve, we can assess the effective parameters in shearand axial failure of reinforced concrete columns in framed buildings. In the current study by flexural, shear andaxial springs which are used in series, shear and axial failures and important effective parameters have beenassessed, Besides 5,10 and 15 story models with different amounts of initial axial load ratio have been analyzedby nonlinear push-over analysis. The results of analytical models contain behavior of buildings based on differentinitial axial load ratio and different spacing of transverse reinforcement are compared

According to the limit values of axial compression ratio of steel reinforced concrete given by technical specification for steel reinforced concrete composite structure (JGJ138-2001), the axial force of steel reinforced concrete sandwich nodes calculated by MIDAS and the axial bearing capacity calculated by limit values of axial compression ratio are compared with an actual project. The results show that steel concrete columns with designed strength of C60, the strength more than of column concrete strength higher than C50 is the least requirement as to meet the axial compression ratio. The result provides a theoretical basis for the future of safety work and the sandwich joint construction.

The Relationship

The elasto-plastic analysis of reinforced concrete square columns was introduced to study the relationship between lateral force and curvature by using the open source program OpenSees. A pseudo static test on the inverted "T" shape reinforced concrete square column was conducted for the comparative analysis. The results indicated that the lateral force calculated by program agree with experimental data with an axial load ratio of 0.33. The calculated yield lateral force was 29.7 kN, the error was lower than 7% compared with experimental results. In addition, the cross-section curvature were obtained, which were difficult to obtain through the traditional experimental study, the calculated yield curvature was 1.825×10-5. The calculated results with different axial load ratios were presented in this paper, which showed that both the yield lateral force and curvature of reinforced concrete square columns were increased with low axial load ratio, and at the same time it could reduce some experimental work by using computer simulation.
