Experimental Study of LRB Energy Dissipation Walls and its Engineering Example Study

Abstract:

LRB energy dissipation wall is a type of energy dissipation device for building structures. According to the results of an quasi-static test, structure with LRB energy dissipation wall shows a stronger energy dissipation capacity and a better seismic performance than the normal frame-shear wall structure. This paper also introduces the applications technology of LRB energy dissipation wall in High-level framework structure. According to the dynamic property analysis of a three-dimensional finite element model which was built by the finite element analysis software ETABS, LRB energy dissipation wall can effectively prolong the natural vibration period of high-rise frame structure and significantly reduce the maximum acceleration, shearing force and horizontal displacement in different floors to make the variation more smooth which is important the to the energy dissipation and earthquake mitigation.
