AbstractUnder strong earthquakes, reinforced concrete (RC) walls in high-rise buildings, particularly in wall piers that form part of a coupled or core wall system, may experience coupled axial tension–flexure loading. In this study, a detailed finite element model was developed in VecTor2 to provide an effective tool for the further investigation of the seismic behaviour of RC walls subjected to axial tension and cyclic lateral loading. The model was verified using experimental data from recent RC wall tests under axial tension and cyclic lateral loading, and results showed that the model can accurately capture the overall response of RC walls. Additional analyses were conducted using the developed model to investigate the effect of key design parameters on the peak strength, ultimate deformation capacity and plastic hinge length of RC walls under axial tension and cyclic lateral loading. On the basis of the analysis results, useful information were provided when designing or assessing the seismic behaviour of RC slender walls under coupled axial tension–flexure loading.

Plastic Hinge Length

In reinforced concrete buildings in case of a possible earthquake, the buildings slamp as they lost their horizontal stability because of hinging of column ends. The assumptions for plastic hinge lengths are present during project stage of reinforced concrete buildings. According to Turkish Earthquake Regulations, although plastic hinge length is determined to be 0.5h, it's known that plastic hinge length is determined via various formulas in some other regulations all over the world. In reinforced concrete columns, it's necessary to indicate the effect of plastic hinge length on the column behavior. For this purpose, pushover analysis of 5 column samples having different plastic hinge lengths was performed with non-linear analysis program. As a result of pushover analysis, situations of plastic hinges formed in columns and their load-displacement curves were determined. The graphs and the data were compared and the results were discussed.

Plastic Hinge Length

The use of high strength reinforcement and high strength concrete in bridge columns is increasing due to many advantages of the high strength materials. In order to study the equivalent plastic hinge length of reinforced concrete bridge columns，37 column test results by using high strength reinforcement and high concrete were collected. Then, the equations proposed by Priestley, Paulay, Telemachos and JTG/T B02-01-2008 to predict the equivalent plastic hinge length of the columns were evaluated based on the experimental results. Influence factors which affect the equivalent plastic hinge length of high strength concrete bridge columns were studied through grey correlation analysis. It is found that, comparing to test results, all the proposed equations show considerable scatter in estimating the plastic hinge length of the high strength bridge columns using high strength reinforcement. The equations proposed by Paulay, Telemachos are not safe, while Priestley and JTG/T B02-01-2008 proposed equations give conservative results. Among the influence factors, the diameter of longitudinal reinforcement is the most important, secondly is the column length and section width. The axial load ratio of the column and transverse reinforcement of the specimens show small influence.
