Seismic Performance of Prestressed Concrete Masonry Walls Incorporating Energy Dissipators
Abstract eng: This paper explores the seismic in-plane response of post-tensioned fully grouted concrete masonry (PCM) walls with and without energy dissipating devices. A typical 3-story PCM structure was subjected to ground motions representative of the seismic hazard in the Los Angeles, California. The viability of PCM walls as the lateral system was evaluated and the efficiency of incorporating energy dissipators in the wall-base interface was investigated.
