Abstract

In this paper, two low-rise shear wall specimens are tested on the shaking table, one is shear wall with CFST frame and embedded steel-plate, the other one is no concrete outside the steel-plate in comparison of the first one. The reduced scale of the two specimens is 1/12. The seismic wave “Taft” is input in the shaking table test. Based on the experiment, the author conducts the time history analysis (including elastic stage and plastic stage) of the specimens. The calculated results and measured results are compared.

Highlights

  • It is very important to enhance the seismic ability of shear walls which are the primary lateral load resisting elements in high-rise buildings

  • Steel-plate shear wall is a new kind of lateral force resisting component which has very good seismic ability

  • Concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns have studied by many scholars in recent years

Summary

INTRODUCTION

It is very important to enhance the seismic ability of shear walls which are the primary lateral load resisting elements in high-rise buildings. Steel-plate shear wall is a new kind of lateral force resisting component which has very good seismic ability. It has been more and more widely used in high-rise buildings of developed countries. Concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns have studied by many scholars in recent years. Based on the above results, this paper presents the shear wall with CFST frame and embedded steel-plate which focus on all the advantages of steel-plate shear walls and concrete-filled steel tube columns. It is noted that this paper is subsidized by scientific research project of Inner Mongolia University of Technology (approved: X201414)
