Optimization and Suggestions of Design for RC Frames with Special-Shaped Columns Based on Chinese Specification

Article Preview

Abstract:

To optimize the design of RC frames with special-shaped columns, some special care should be given to the design of this type of structure. Designers should attach great importance to concept design by considering the structure as a whole to assimilate seismic energy. Ductility has to be guaranteed both for the structure and for the members. In high-rise buildings, frame-shear wall structure is preferred. Safety of L-shaped Corner columns is to be improved or otherwise cantilever beams can be designed to prevent progressive collapse.
