Abstract:
The pseudo-static test was conducted to investigate the seismic behavior of earthquake-damaged precast concrete(PC) frame structures (the earthquake-damaged frame structures are within moderate damage) strengthened with buckling-restrained braces(BRBs) and to analyze the hysteretic energy dissipation of BRBs. A half-scale PC frame structure was fabricated. After it was pre-damaged by quasi-static loading,it was strengthened with BRBs,and then tested under pseudo-static loading again. The structural experimental phenomena and failure characteristics were observed and recorded. The structural seismic behavior,including bearing capacity,ductility,and energy dissipation,was evaluated. The test results show that after repairing with BRBs,the bearing capacity and energy dissipation can be significantly improved (the ultimate bearing capacity and energy dissipation increased by 51.3% and 68%,respectively), other seismic behavior like the ductility coefficient can be recovered well (ductility coefficient restored to 88% of the initial ductility of the structure);the earthquake-damaged PC frame structure strengthened with BRBs under pseudo-static loading exhibited a failure mode of beam-hinge with BRBs. The earthquake-damaged PC frame structures still had retrofit value and that the above retrofitting method was effective. © 2022 Editorial Board of Jilin University. All rights reserved.
