Cumulative Damage Investigation of Research Status and Problem Analysis of RC Structure

Abstract:

Reinforced concrete (RC) structural walls are one of the most commonly used lateral load resisting systems for high-rise buildings in strong seismic regions because of its good lateral resistance. Serious damage occurs when RC structure subjected to strong seismic action. Classified and brief comment of documents concerning damage indices and its calculation methods are conducted. It could be concluded that most of the damage evaluative models can not directly consider the effect of cumulative damage of material to mechanical properties of structure. Suggestions are proposed to improve the accuracy in damage evaluation of RC structure.
