Abstract:

In order to improve the seismic behavior of the rural masonry buildings and reduce the cost and be convenient for construction, a precast tie-column system was put forward, which was suitable for masonry buildings, constructed by fired common bricks or porous bricks. The uniaxial compression constitutive relation of brick masonry was used for simulating the precast tie-column. And this paper analyzed the difference of the seismic behavior of masonry walls which bearing different vertical compressive stress, and confined by cast-in-place tie-columns or precast tie-columns, and whether contain w

Abstract:

Through the ANSYS finite element method, the seismic performance of frame columns reinforced with wing walls has been analyzed, indicating that the wing wall reinforcement can effectively improve the lateral stiffness and remarkably increase the bearing capacity of columns. With the wing wall reinforcement, the envelop area of the column’s hysteresis curve increases, and the bearing capacity improves, however, the shrinking phenomena of the curve suggests that the ductility of the section reduces. When the centerline of the additional wing wall coincides with that of the original column, the h

Abstract:

Constructional practice has shown that structure‐borne sound transmission through joints can signally reduce airborne sound insulation in buildings. Vibration transmission coefficient evaluates this reduction in design calculations. In this article sound transmission through joints in framed buildings is investigated. Rooms in framed buildings are shaped by walls and ceilings connected to columns. Several walls could be connected to each column in a building plan. Such joints are modelled like idealised plate–beam–plate junctions. Examining vibration transmission through these junctions, the i

This study examines several buildings braced with L-shaped shear walls, with and without corner columns. In this case, the L-shaped shear wall consists of two walls, each with vertical rectangular openings. At the same time, three wall thicknesses 15cm, 20 cm, and 25 cm were used in buildings of 4, 7, and 11 stories. A comparison was made between walls with and without columns based on tensile stresses and dynamic shear forces at the base of the buildings. The maximum displacements at the tops of the buildings were also compared between those braced with shear walls with and without corner col

Abstract:

The City of Banjarmasin has very low soil bearing capacity leading to a significant number of buildings experiencing foundation settlement. This causes many elements of the buildings to develop cracks and to lean. The foundation settlement is modelled using ANSYS by taking five building structure models with brick walls loaded with their selves weight. Through this modelling the crack pattern and the stress distribution on both walls and the structural elements can be visualised and identified. The results show that the following columns experiencing foundation settlement develop longitu

It was experimentally found that, by strengthening brick walls with RC–masonry composite columns, the concrete and masonry parts can work together effectively, the failure mode shifts from shear to flexural failure, and the strengthened

Abstract:

Square steel tube (SST) columns are widely applied, and fire resistance is a critical issue in its design. Current research on the fire resistance of the SST column predominantly assumes that it is uniformly exposed to fire, ignoring the thermal insulation of the surrounding walls under actual fire conditions. The heat transfer and mechanical finite element model (FEM) for SST columns embedded in walls under an ISO 834 standard fire are established in this study, and the accuracy of the FEM is verified by existing experimental results. Subsequently, the wall effect on the temperature distribut

Cracks that form at the interfaces between masonry structures are common uncontrolled occurrences in buildings. Numerous methods have been proposed by the construction industry to address this problem. Cracks continuously form in the joints between concrete columns and masonry infill walls. In this study, the most common methods for preventing these types of cracks were evaluated in laboratory experiments. Column masonry models were constructed using different types of joints between concrete columns and masonry infill walls, such as steel bars and steel mesh. The efficiency of each type of jo

This paper presents a series of pseudo-dynamic tests (PDTs) and quasi-static tests (QSTs) on a dual wing-walled frame system, represented here by a 1/7-scaled composite moment frame with steel reinforced concrete (SRC) columns and reinforced concrete (RC) wing walls. Special characteristics of this scaled system are irregular story layout, strong-beam weak-column mechanism and large axial load. A series of scaled El-Centro (NS) waves were used as the input ground motion for the PDTs, the results of which showed that the seismic behavior was significantly improved by the RC wing walls.

Practical use of secondary walls such as sidewalls is common because the contributions of secondary walls for stiffness or strength have been recognized. In 2016, “AIJ Standard for Lateral Load-carrying Capacity Calculation of Reinforced Concrete Structures” was published as a draft by Architectural Institute of Japan. In this standard new equations for columns with side walls were proposed. From this viewpoint, the authors have conducted static loading tests of flexurally controlled RC column specimens with single opening in the sidewall, to investigate the effects of openings on strength and

Concrete is commonly used as a primary construction material for tall building construction.

Reinforcing steel content, variable concrete modulus, volume to surface area ratio of the elements and environmental conditions govern axial shortening.

Abstract:

Wind energy can be harnessed for various commercial and transportation-related applications. This study assessed experimentally the potential of capturing wind energy from the passage of vehicles for electric power generation. Both wind tunnel experiments and field tests were performed. The wind tunnel experiments were performed in an open-circuit low-speed wind tunnel at a free-stream mean velocity of 23 m/s. Five PVC pipes placed adjacent to the wind-blowing domain were used to simulate the columns under a freeway overpass. A scaled Ahmad body (simplified car body model) was used as the vehi

Abstract:

Seton Lake is a freshwater fiord located in southwestern British Columbia, roughly 4 km west of Lillooet and 250 km north-northeast of Vancouver. Located in the Coast Mountains, it is an alpine lake about 22-km long and roughly 1-1.5 km wide. It is separated from nearby Anderson Lake, located to the west, by a large pre-historic rock avalanche deposit at Seton Portage. The lake stands at about 243 m above sea level and is up to about 150 m deep (BC gov., 1953). Water level is controlled by a hydroelectric dam (i.e., Seton dam) located at the eastern end of the lake. Here, the lake drains east

TENSILE BEHAVIOR OF T-STUB TO HOLLOW SECTION COLUMN USING THREAD-FIXED ONE-SIDE BOLTS AT HIGH TEMPERATURES. The Hong Kong Institute of Steel Construction, 2025. https://doi.org/10.18057/ijasc.2025.21.2.7.

Full text

Abstract:

The Thread-fixed One-side Bolt (TOB), which utilizes internal threads in the bolt hole instead of a nut, enables installation from one side, thereby overcoming the challenge of connecting closed-section components, such as steel tube columns, which are not suitable for traditional bolt connections. This study establishes and validates a Finite Element Model (FEM) to investigate the mechanical performance of TOB connections under high temperature conditions. The results show that the wall thickness of the column has a significant influence on the performance of the connection; an increase in wa

RESEARCH ON SEISMIC BEHAVIOR OF L-SHAPED CONCRETE-FILLED STEEL TUBES COLUMN FRAME-BUCKLING RESTRAINED STEEL PLATE SHEAR WALLS. The Hong Kong Institute of Steel Construction, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.18057/ijasc.2023.19.3.8.

Full text

Abstract:

Frame buckling restrained steel plate shear walls (BRSPSWs) have been widely used in high-rise residential buildings. L-shaped concrete-filled steel tube (CFT) columns were used in the frame in this research to investigate the impact of the frame members type in the BRSPSWs system. A nonlinear finite element model (NFEM) was generated to examine the seismic performance of BRSPSWs with various types of connections to the frame elements. The NFEM results were compared to test results to make them more reliable, and the comparison showed that the NFEM can predict the seismic behavior of BRSPSWs.

Abstract:

An experimental investigation on the cyclic behavior of the joints for steel H-shaped beams to steel rectangular tube columns using end-plate and blind bolts is conducted in this paper. The load-bearing capacity, rotation stiffness and hysteretic behavior of the joints are studied. In terms of the types of beams (pure steel beam and composite steel beam with concrete slab) and columns (pure steel rectangular tube column and concrete-filled steel rectangular tube column), a total of four different joints are tested and compared. It is found that filling concrete in rectangular tube columns can

Abstract:

This paper has carried out experimental and numerical research on the hysteretic characteristics of a corrugated steel plate shear wall which has a partially encased composite (PEC) column (PEC-CSPSW). Two single layer PEC-CSPSW cycle tests were conducted. For the sake of simulating the experimental results, the writer made a numerical model and verified it. The capacity of energy dissipation and failure mode of the structure were studied. The results displayed the PEC-CSPSWs had excellent bearing capacity, ductility, and energy dissipation feature, and the bearing capacity declined gradully.
