Structural Performance of Side Columns Subjected to Varying Axial Load
Abstract eng: For multistory RC frame buildings, side columns or corner columns may encounter drastic varying axial load during strong motion. Substructure pseudo-dynamic tests of multistory RC frame (frame with soft first story and frame with weak-beam type) buildings were carried out. In the tests, two loading systems of RC specimens, which represent side columns of the first floor, were developed. The operator-splitting (OS) method was used as the numerical algorithm for analysis. Three pseudo-dynamic tests with different frame types and different shear reinforcement ratio specimens were executed successfully, and characteristic structural performances of side columns, which mainly depend on the building type, were elucidated.
