Study on Seismic Resistant Properties of the Integral Structure after Adding Steel Storey on Top of the Multistoried Brick-Concrete Architecture

Article Preview

Abstract:

The whole quality, stiffness and damping of the structure have changed a lot after retrofitting with steel adding layer. It should make seismic response analysis for the overall structure. Use finite element analysis software SATWE to set up finite element models for a three-layer masonry structure with steel top-adding layer. Bottom layer shear, bottom layer axial force and the horizontal displacement of Y direction are obtained by using response spectrum analysis method and time history analysis method. Analysis results indicate that the stories with sudden change in stiffness show less resistance against the earthquake and require special attention in design. Under earthquakes, the analysis to determine the integrated performance of the structure is necessary.
