shake table tests of a full scale two story Shear dominated reinforced masonry Wall Structure
Journal of Structural Engineering-asce, 2016Co-Authors: Marios Mavros, Farhad Ahmadi, P B Shing, Richard E Klingner, David I Mclean, Andreas StavridisAbstract:AbstractThis paper presents the shake-table tests of a full-scale, two-story, reinforced masonry Shear-Wall Structure designed by a displacement-based method. The test Structure had two T-sectioned and one rectangular-sectioned Wall components along the direction of the table motion, and four rectangular-sectioned Wall components in the orthogonal direction. The Structure was subjected to a series of dynamic tests with a historical ground motion record scaled to intensity levels up to that of the maximum considered earthquake (MCE). The Structure formed a soft-story mechanism during the last test. The recorded displacements were within the target limits for the design earthquake-level table motion, but exceeded the target limits for the MCE level. Although the Structure experienced severe damage and incurred diagonal cracking in Wall components with low aspect ratios, it did not collapse. The comparison of the analysis results to the test results shows that the Walls in the orthogonal direction had a sign...

shake table tests of a full scale three story reinforced masonry Shear Wall Structure
Journal of Structural Engineering-asce, 2016Co-Authors: Andreas Stavridis, Farhad Ahmadi, Marios Mavros, P B Shing, Richard E Klingner, David I McleanAbstract:AbstractThis paper presents the shake-table tests of a full-scale, 3-story, reinforced concrete masonry Structure. The Structure was a special reinforced masonry Shear Wall system designed according to current code provisions for an area of high seismicity. It consisted of three lines of Walls arranged in an H-shape in plan view, with one lineal and two T-Walls aligned in the direction of the table motion and four lineal Walls oriented perpendicular to the table motion. The seven Walls were separated by door openings and were connected with lintels and precast slabs with cast-in-place concrete topping. The Structure was subjected to a series of dynamic tests including nine seismic excitations with intensities exceeding the maximum considered earthquake used in the design. The Structure had a capacity that exceeded considerably the design base Shear, and it withstood all but the last two excitations with little or no damage. The paper presents the design of the test Structure, its dynamic response to the s...
