Abstract

The structural seismic performance of steel frame-precast steel reinforced concrete (SRC) infill wall with lateral force resisting is analyzed, and the structural strength of steel frame-precast SRC infill wall with lateral force resisting is improved. The structural seismic performance optimization model of SRC lateral force resisting wall based on buckling restrained brace is proposed. Through the finite element simulation software, the seismic performance and response results of ordinary steel frames, buckling restrained braced steel frames and a relatively new type of sacrificial-energy dissipation braced steel frames under earthquake are compared and analyzed to demonstrate the applicability and performance advantages of sacrificial-energy dissipation braced steel frames in the steel frame braced structure system. Under the action of horizontal earthquake, the supporting members experience reciprocating axial tension and compression cycles, which dissipate a large amount of seismic energy input into the structure. Therefore, the buckling restraint support method can be used in the structure to improve the support strength. Under horizontal reciprocating load action of earthquake, the ability to consume seismic energy through self-hysteresis of the brace is poor. Experimental research shows that, the unbalanced force formed in the beam of the frame beam under seismic action will form a plastic hinge at the beam end at both ends of the frame beam. Especially when the brace is buckling unstable and the stiffness of the frame beam is small, the plastic hinge effect at the beam end is significant. This phenomenon may cause damage to the frame beam or even local floor subsidence. The buckling restraint support has a full hysteresis area under axial tension and compression, and its mechanical performance is excellent. It is obviously superior to ordinary steel bracing in energy dissipation capacity and seismic performance. It can accurately predict the bearing capacity of reinforced concrete under strong earthquake, and the energy dissipation distribution is more in line with the requirements of “energy seismic design method”.
