Abstract

Currently, ordinary concrete and steel bars are mostly used in frames, but there is no systematic research on the impact of high toughness concrete and low yield point steel bars on the seismic performance of frames. The low-cycle repeated load test of three 1/3 ratio two-story and two-span cast-in-situ concrete frame specimens is carried out. The resilience model hysteresis characteristics, displacement ductility, and energy dissipation capacity are studied and analyzed by experiment. In addition, a comparative analysis is made between the ordinary frame and the frame with low yield point reinforcement. The restoring force model of reinforced concrete (RC) frame with low yield point reinforcement and high toughness concrete is given. The results show that the frame with low yield point reinforcement has better ductility and lateral stiffness than the ordinary reinforced concrete frame. The ductility of the frame will be improved by using high toughness concrete. The deformation ability of the members will be improved by using low yield point steel and high toughness concrete in the frame.
