A form of ECC/RC composite frame in which normal concrete both in beam-column joint zones and column bases in the ground floor were substituted with ECC, was proposed to relax the requirement of transverse reinforcement in the joint core and to improve the seismic performance of the frame. The seismic behavior of ECC/RC composite frame was evaluated through the pushover analysis, and the seismic behavior of frames with different typical ECC mixes and concrete were compared. Results indicated that the strategic use of ECC in the frame could reduce the distribution range of plastic hinges, decrease the inter-story drift with relatively large plastic deformation, and mitigate the earthquake damage. 000019186 540__ $$aText je chráněný podle autorského zákona č. 121/2000 Sb. 000019186 653__ $$aframe; engineered cementitious composites; beam-column connection; seismic behavior; pushover analysis 000019186 7112_ $$a16th World Conference on Earthquake Engineering$$cSantiago (CL)$$d2017-01-09 / 2017-01-13$$gWCEE16 000019186 720__ $$aWang, Wei$$iLiu, Jiwei$$iPan, Zuanfeng$$iSu, Ray 000019186 8560_ $$ffischerc@itam.cas.cz 000019186 8564_ $$s189311$$uhttps://invenio.itam.cas.cz/record/19186/files/3047.pdf$$yOriginal version of the author's contribution as presented on USB, paper 3047. 000019186 962__ $$r16048 000019186 980__ $$aPAPER
