Seismic Experiments for Multi-Ribbed Sandwich Insulation Composite Wallboard

Article Preview

Abstract:

Low frequency cyclic horizontal load experiments have been carried out on the sandwich insulation (ECW-8) and ordinary (ECW-1) multi-ribbed composite wallboard. Mechanical properties of two specimens such as bearing capacity, energy dissipation and failure modes were studied. Two specimens are both shear failure. The cracking load of insulation wallboard increases by 29.1% than ordinary wallboard. The initial stiffness of insulation wallboard is 1.38 times of ordinary wallboard. The ultimate bearing capacity and energy dissipation performance has little difference between them.
