Experimental Study on the Composite Steel Frame-RC Infill Wall Structure


Abstract eng:
The composite steel frame-reinforced concrete infill wall structure combines advantages of both steel frames and RC infills walls and thus receives the increasing recognition in seismic areas. In order to study seismic behavior and force distribution in the structural system, the test, two-story one bay specimen under cyclic load, was performed. Based on that, the main characters such as, general behavior, local response and force distribution, were analyzed and evaluated. The experimental results indicate that the structure has adequate strength redundancy and sufficient lateral stiffness. The structural system has good performances on ductility and energy dissipation. The steel framework undertakes 80%~100% of the whole overturning moment and the infill wall takes 80%~90% of overall lateral load. Finally the design recommendations are presented.
