SEISMIC BEHAVIOR AND DESIGN METHOD OF ABNORMAL EXTERIOR JOINTS IN LARGE-SCALE THERMAL POWER PLANT
The large-scale thermal power plant main building commonly contained the abnormal exterior joints with the high beam and column section abrupt. Four 1/5 scale plane abnormal exterior joints and one space abnormal joint of reinforced concrete frame were tested in this paper. The factors affecting the shear failure mode of abnormal joints such as: transverse beam, the column section abrupt, the stirrup ratio of joints etc. Were presented. The experimental results indicated the abnormal joints crack load and the ultimate load decreased significantly contrast to those of ordinary joints.Furthermore, crack load were very closed to ultimate load and two typical failure modes were presented: minor core shear failure and the joint zone (under transverse beam) shear failure. Using the confine mechanism to express the minor core shear failure and the formula for calculation of the shear capacity for abnormal joints were given. Restraining the steel ratio on the bottom of high beam was effective to ensure the safety of the joint zone under transverse beam.
