SEISMIC PERFORMANCE OF PARTIALLY PREFABRICATED LAMINATED COMPOSITE RC WALLS: SIMULATIONS AND EXPERIMENTS

摘要：

The failure pattern, lateral load-top drift relationship and the in-plane horizontal load carrying capacity of the composite RC walls were compared with the common cast-in-place RC walls through the low-cyclic reversed tests. The finite element software ABAQUS was employed to simulate the experiment scenarios. Then further simulation was conducted on the composite walls and the common castin-place wall under different axial ratios. Experimental and numerical study indicates that there is no obvious difference in horizontal load carrying capacity and failure pattern between the composite walls and the common cast-in-place walls under the tested axial ratios, but the composite walls are more vulnerable to failure under high axial ratio to the cast-in-place wall. To summary, though they have many advantages in rapid construction, especially in reconstruction of the earthquake-hit areas, the laminated composite walls are not suggested to apply under high axial ratio conditions.
