Study on Reinforced Concrete Masonry High-Rise Building by Abaqus

Abstract:

Pseudo static tests of 10 specimen made of 290 mm thick reinforced concrete masonry wall were finished, then test results were simulated by ABAQUS which use shell element, pamameters of the materials were defined by the comparison between the calculation results and that of the test. A 100 m high reinforced concrete masonry building in China was analyzed, elastic-plastic deformation check calculation under earthquake action by time-history analysis method were detailed. The story drift of the building is 1/666 for fortification intensity 6 and 1/326 for intensity 7 under strong earthquake, it is feasible.
