Abstract:
With the elimination of traditional clay-brick structure, new multi-story residential structure systems desiderate to be studied. In order to construct multi-story residential buildings with better seismic behavior, lower cost and easier construction, the energy-saving multi-storey RC shear wall structure with bidirectional single row of steel bars and inclined reinforcements is proposed by the authors. In onder to study the seismic performance of this new shear wall structure, the low-frequency cyclic loading tests on one T-section shear wall with bidirectional single row of steel bars and another with bidirectional single row of steel bars and inclined reinforcements were carried out along their flange direction. A comparative analysis of load-carrying capacity, ductility, stiffness, hysteresis property, energy dissipation and failure characteristics between the two walls was made. It is shown that the seismic performance of T-shear wall with inclined reinforcements is better than the wall without inclined reinforcements. So it is able to meet the requirements of seismic design of multi-story residential structure.
