Research on Seismic Behavior of Infilled Frame Structure

Article Preview

Abstract:

The infilled frame structure is a kind of structural system used widely in the industrial and civil building. Although the infill walls are no-load-bearing components, the walls are also subjected to some earthquake actions. During some domestic and foreign large earthquakes in recent years, the infill wall were destroyed seriously and the frame were destroyed lightly. The damage of the infill wall not only influences the application of the building, but also increases repair costs for restoring the building, seriously, even endangers the life safety. This paper analyzes the influence of the connection method between the infill wall and the frame on the seismic behaviors of the infilled frame structure. Finally, some new technologies to protect the infill wall and the frame from damage under earthquake are introduced.
