Analytical Studies on a 6-Story Full-Scale Reinforced Concrete Wall-Frame Structure to Collapse


Abstract eng:
A 6-story full-scale reinforced concrete building subjected to severe earthquake loading simulated by E-Defense at Kobe, Japan experienced the collapse process which was planned and expected in preliminary analysis. In this paper, in addition to the brief description about experiment, modified modeling approaches on the evaluation of stiffness, strength and support condition of specimen are introduced to improve the quantitative correlation (e.g. displacement and base shear) between test and analysis. The reevaluation of initial stiffness resulting skeleton curve to be modified gave a good agreement between test and analysis and the increased girder strength enhanced the shear force carried by columns, leading maximum base shear to be reproduced in analysis.
