Experimental and numerical studies on Seismic Performance of The SCFST Column Eccentrically Braced Frames

Experimental and numerical studies on Seismic Performance of The SCFST Column Eccentrically... The quasi-static experiments and finite element analysis of three groups of special-shaped concrete-filled steel tube (SCFST) column chevron braced frames (two groups of eccentrically braced frames and one group of concentrically braced frame) were carried out. The differences of quasi-static mechanical properties between the three groups frame were compared. The damage mechanism of the concentrically and eccentrically braced frames was significantly different, and the eccentrically braced frame could significantly improve the energy-dissipation ability and ductility. When the single limb of columns was connected by double-steel-plate, the stiffness of eccentrically braced structure could be improved around 10.4% and showed better energy-dissipation capacity. The finite element simulation was built on the basis of experiments, and parametric analysis was examined. The analysis results showed that section forms of the SCFST column and the thickness of brace have significant impacts on the quasi-static properties of such type of structure. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Advances in Structural Engineering SAGE

Abstract

The quasi-static experiments and finite element analysis of three groups of special-shaped concrete-filled steel tube (SCFST) column chevron braced frames (two groups of eccentrically braced frames and one group of concentrically braced frame) were carried out. The differences of quasi-static mechanical properties between the three groups frame were compared. The damage mechanism of the concentrically and eccentrically braced frames was significantly different, and the eccentrically braced frame could significantly improve the energy-dissipation ability and ductility. When the single limb of columns was connected by double-steel-plate, the stiffness of eccentrically braced structure could be improved around 10.4% and showed better energy-dissipation capacity. The finite element simulation was built on the basis of experiments, and parametric analysis was examined. The analysis results showed that section forms of the SCFST column and the thickness of brace have significant impacts on the quasi-static properties of such type of structure.
