Buckling-restrained braces (BRBs) have excellent hysteretic behavior while buckling-restrained braced frames (BRBFs) are susceptible to residual lateral deformations. To address this drawback, a novel self-centering (SC) BRB with Basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) composite tendons is presented in this work. The configuration and mechanics of proposed BFRP-SC-BRBs are first discussed. Then an 1840-mm-long BFRP-SC-BRB specimen is fabricated and tested to verify its hysteric and self-centering performance. The tested specimen has an expected flag-shaped hysteresis character, showing a distinct self-centering tendency. During the test, the residual deformation of the specimen is only about 0.6 mm. The gap between anchorage plates and welding ends of bracing tubes performs as expected with the maximum opening value 6 mm when brace is in compression. The OpenSEES software is employed to conduct numerical analysis. Experiment results are used to validate the modeling methodology. Then the proposed numerical model is used to evaluate the influence of initial prestress, tendon diameter and core plate thickness on the performance of BFRP-SC-BRBs. Results show that both the increase of initial prestress and tendon diameters can obviously improve the self-centering effect of BFRP-SC-BRBs. With the increase of core plate thickness, the energy dissipation is improved while the residual deformation is generated when the core plate strength exceeds initial prestress force.

In practical engineering, the friction damper is a widely used energy dissipation device because of its large deformation capacity, stable energy dissipation capability, and cost effectiveness. While based on conventional friction dampers, the double-sliding friction damper (DSFD) being proposed is different in that it features two sliding friction forces, i.e., small and large sliding friction forces, rather than a single-sliding friction force of ordinary friction dampers. The DSFD starts to deform when the force sustained exceeds the small-sliding friction force, and stops deforming when the deformation reaches a certain value. If the force sustained exceeds the large sliding friction force, it continues to deform. Such a double-sliding behavior is expected to endow structures equipped with the DSFD better performance in both small and large earthquakes. The configuration and working mechanism of the DSFD is described and analyzed. Quasi-static loading tests and finite element analyses were conducted to investigate its hysteretic behavior. Finally, time history analysis of the single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) and multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) systems were performed to investigate the seismic performance of DSFD-equipped structures. For the purpose of comparison, tests on systems equipped with conventional friction dampers were also performed. The proposed DSFD can be realized perfectly, and the DSFD-equipped structures provide better performances than those equipped with conventional friction dampers in terms of interstory drift and floor acceleration. In particular, for the MDOF system, the DSFD helps the structural system to have a uniform distributed interstory drift.

This paper simulates the hysteretic behavior of steel reinforced recycled concrete (SRRC) columns under cyclic loads using OpenSees software. The effective fiber model and displacement-based beam-column element in OpenSees is applied to each SRRC columns. The Concrete01 material model for recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) and Steel02 material model is proposed to perform the numerical simulation of columns. The constitutive models of RAC, profile steel and rebars in columns were assigned to each fiber element. Based on the modelling method, the analytical models of SRRC columns are established. It shows that the calculated hysteresis loops of most SRRC columns agree well with the test curves. In addition, the parameter studies (i.e., strength grade of RAC, stirrups strength, steel strength and steel ratio) on seismic performance of SRRC columns were also investigated in detail by OpenSees. The calculation results of parameter analysis show that SRRC columns suffered from flexural failure has good seismic performance through the reasonable design. The ductility and bearing capacity of columns increases as the increasing magnitude of steel strength, steel ratio and stirrups strength. Although the bearing capacity of columns increases as the strength grade of RAC increases, the ductility and energy dissipation capacity decreases gradually. Based on the test and numerical results, the flexural failure mechanism of SRRC columns were analysed in detail. The computing theories of the normal section of bearing capacity for the eccentrically loaded columns were adopted to calculate the nominal bending strength of SRRC columns subjected to vertical axial force under lateral cyclic loads. The calculation formulas of horizontal bearing capacity for SRRC columns were proposed based on their nominal bending strength.

In this study, the seismic performance of the connections between L-shaped columns composed of concrete-filled steel tubes (L-CFST columns) and H-beams used in high-rise steel frame structures was investigated. Seven full-scale specimens were tested under quasi-static cyclic loading. The variables studied in the tests included the joint type, the axial compression ratio, the presence of concrete, the width-to-thickness ratio and the internal extension length of the side plates. The hysteretic response, strength degradation, stiffness degradation, ductility, plastic rotation capacity, energy dissipation capacity and the strain distribution were evaluated at different load cycles. The test results indicated that both the corner and exterior joint specimens failed due to local buckling and crack within the beam flange adjacent to the end of the side plates. However, the failure modes of the interior joint specimens primarily included local buckling and crack at the end plates and curved corners of the beam flange. A design method was proposed for the flexural capacity of the end plate connection in the interior joint. Good agreement was observed between the theoretical and test results of both the yield and ultimate flexural capacity of the end plate connection.

비좌굴가새는 우수한 내진성능을 보이는 시스템이다. 그러나 비좌굴가새는 약진이나 바람과 같은 하중에 대하여 에너지를 소산시키지 못한다. 기존의 비좌굴가새의 풍저항 성능을 개선한 하이브리드 비좌굴가새(H-BRB)는 비좌굴가새와 점탄성댐퍼로 구성된 복합댐퍼시스템의 일종이다. 본 논문에서는 탄성영역에서 H-BRB의 구조성능을 확인하기 위하여 심재가 다른 두 개의 실험체에 대한 실험이 수행되었다. H-BRB 시스템에 대한 탄성영역에서의 거동메케니즘 검증을 위하여 주저항요소와 2차 저항요소의 축변형량과 에너지소산 능력을 비교하였다. 실험결과 댐퍼부에서 이면전단을 사용한 H-BRB는 우수한 구조성능을 보이며, 고층건물의 사용성 수준을 향상시키기 위하여 적용될 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구는 철도, 도시고속화도로 및 고속도로 교량의 교각으로 많이 이용디고 있는 철근콘크리트 기둥으 내진성능 평가에 관한 quasi-static 실험으로서 사용된 실험 변수는 축하중 내진설계유무에 따른 띠철근량 변위제어 하중형태 등을 채택하였다 RC 기둥시험체는 수원에 위치한 하갈교의 교각을 1/3.4의 축소모델로 하여 내진설계된 단면과 내진설계되지 않은 시험체를 각각 4개씩 총 8개를 제작하였으며 소성힌지구간에서 띠철근의 간격은 2.2cm 및 4.4cm 이다 실험변수에 따른 내진 및 비내진 시험체의 내진성능검토를 위하여 충진콘크리트 교각의 하중변위 이력특성 연성능력, 강도감소, 에너지 흡수능력, 등가점성계수 등을 실험적으로 분석조사하였다. '96년 개정된 도로교시방서의 RC기둥에 관한 내진설계기준은 AASHTO(1992)와 유사한 것으로서 중.약지진 지역으로 구분되는 국내의 실정에는 다소 과다설계로 판단된다. 실험결과 비내진설계된 콘크리트 교각도 어느 정도의 연성능력을 발휘한 것으로 조사되었으나 추가의 충분한 실험연구가 요구된다. 그러나 비내진설계교각도 적절한 내진보강방안을 강구한다면 우수한 내진성능을 발휘할수 있으리라판단된다.

본 연구에서는 RC골조의 내진보강을 위해 K형브레이스로 지지되는 강재댐퍼 설치방식을 제안하고 강재댐퍼에 의한 RC골조의 내진보강효과를 실험 및 설계식의 비교를 통해 검증하였다. 강재댐퍼로 보강된 RC골조의 성능은 RC골조 및 강재댐퍼의 강도-변형 관계를 각각 산정한 후 조합하여 산정하였다. 강재댐퍼 지지부재의 강성이 충분히 크지 않을 경우 댐퍼의 성능이 제대로 발휘될 수 없으므로 댐퍼의 지지부재인 브레이스의 강성 고려하여 강재댐퍼의 성능을 산정 하였다. 강재댐퍼 보강 RC골조의 내진보강효과를 확인하기 위한 실험은 비보강 RC골조를 기준 실험체로 하고 K형브레이스로 지지되는 강재 댐퍼의 설치 방법을 변수로 하여 횡력에 대한 실험체의 강도, 강성, 이력특성 등의 항목에 대해 평가하였다. 강재댐퍼 보강 RC골조는 강도, 강성, 에너지소산능력이 비보강 RC골조에 비해 우수한 것으로 나타나 강재댐퍼에 의한 보강효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 강재댐퍼 보강 RC골조의 실험결과와 설계식에 의한 성능을 비교한 결과 설계식이 강재댐퍼 보강 RC골조의 성능을 비교적 유사하게 나타낼 수 있는 것으로 검증되었다.

T-shaped column is usually used as side column in buildings, which is one of the weak members in structural system. This paper presented a quasi-static cyclic loading experiment of six specimens of reinforced concrete (RC) T-shaped columns under compression-flexure-shear-torsion combined loadings to investigate the effect in the ratio of torsion to moment (T/M) and axial compression ratio (n) and height-thickness ratio of flange plate (φ) on their seismic performance. Based on the test results, the failure characteristics, hysteretic curves, ductility, energy dissipation, stiffness degradation and strength degradation were analyzed. The results show that the failure characteristics of RC T-shaped columns mainly depend on the ratio of torsion to moment, which can be divided into bending failure, bending-torsion failure and shear-torsion failure. With the increase of T/M ratio, the torsion ductility coefficient increased, and in a suitable range, the torsion and horizontal displacement ductility coefficient of RC T-shaped columns could be effectively improved with the increase of axial compression ratio and the decrease of height-thickness ratio of flange plate. Besides, the energy dissipation capacity of the specimens mainly depended on the bending and shear energy dissipation capacity. On the other hand, the increase of axial compression ratio and the ratio of torsion to moment could accelerate the torsional and bending stiffness degradation of RC T-shaped columns. Moreover, the degradation coefficient of torsion strength was between 0.80 and 0.98, and that of bending strength was between 0.75 and 1.00.

The effectiveness of an innovative method for the earthquake-resistant rehabilitation of existing poorly detailed reinforced concrete (RC) structures is experimentally investigated herein. Eight column subassemblages were subjected to earthquake-type loading and their hysteretic behaviour was evaluated. Four of the specimens were identical and representative of columns found in RC structures designed in the 1950s-70s period for gravity load only. These original specimens were subjected to cyclic lateral deformations and developed brittle failure mechanisms. Three of the damaged specimens were subsequently retrofitted with innovative high-strength steel fiber-reinforced concrete (HSSFC) jackets. The main variables examined were the jacket width and the contribution of mesh steel reinforcement in the seismic performance of the enhanced columns. The influence of steel fiber volume fraction was also examined using test results of a previous work of Tsonos et al. (2017). The fourth earthquake damaged subassemblage was strengthened with a conventional RC jacket and was subjected to the same lateral displacement history as the other three retrofitted columns. The seismic behaviour of the subassemblages strengthened according to the proposed retrofit scheme was evaluated with respect to that of the original specimens and that of the column strengthened with the conventional RC jacket. Test results clearly demonstrated that the HSSFC jackets effectively prevented the development of shear failure mechanisms, while ensuring a ductile seismic response similar to that of the subassemblage retrofitted with the conventional RC jacket. Ultimately, an indisputable superiority in the overall seismic performance of the strengthened columns was achieved with respect to the original specimens.
