Influence of Masonry Infill on the Dynamic Characteristics of RC Frames on Slope Part (I): Background and the Infill Model

Abstract:

Buildings on the slope are widely used and have been increasing in mountainous city. The object of this study is to study the influence of masonry infill on the seismic characteristics of RC frames on slope. The concept of slope building is introduced, and the proposed infill model is presented. It is a single equivalent strut model with the compression and tension behavior. The proposed infill model uses the energy-based cyclic degradation law to simulate the deterioration of the infill during the seismic action. In the Part (II) of the paper, the infill model is calibrated, and the performance of different reinforced concrete two bay-frames, bare and infilled, subjected to eight seismic motions was investigated.
