Performance Evaluation of Columns in Ordinary Moment Resisting Concrete Frames(OMF)

철근 콘크리트 보통모멘트골조 기둥의 구조성능평가

The purpose of this study is to investigate the capacity of columns in the Ordinary Moment Frame (OMF). For this purpose, 3-story building was designed according to Uniform Building Code and ACI building Code.(ACI 318-99) The columns were classified into interior and exterior columns. For each interior and exterior columns, upper and lower parts are modeled by the 2/3 scale experimental specimens. The specimens for lower part columns have lap splice. The interior columns were tested under the constant axial force, while the exterior columns were tested under the fluctuating axial force. Based on the results of the experiments, the conclusion for the capacity of the column is proposed.
