Low Cycle Test Research on Seismic Performance of Recycled Concrete Block Wall

Abstract:

The use of concrete aggregate from earthquake damaged building to make blocks which needed for post-disaster reconstruction has brought the social, environmental, economic and other benefits, at the same time respond to the basic state policy of low carbon energy saving. At home and abroad currently focused on the materials properties of recycled aggregate and recycled concrete block basic physical mechanics to study, but research for the material block wall structure performance is less, the research for the wall shear strength and anti-seismic performance of this kind of wall is of great significance. Based on the recycled concrete aggregate from Mianyang, Sichuan where is disaster area to make three hole hollow block wall (no reinforcement) to perform low cycle experiment, collecting four samples, and achieved anti-seismic indicators such as the hysteresis curves, skeleton curves of recycled concrete block wall, analyzes the influence of the axial pressure, the loading method on seismic performance of block wall.
