The Seismic Performance Analysis of the Abnormal Joints Core Area of the Reinforced Concrete Frame Variable Beam Shaped

Article Preview

Abstract:

The finite element analysis software-ANYSIS is used to calculate and analyze the deformation and mechanical performance of the abnormal joints core zone of variable beam shaped (reinforced concrete beam) under the positive and negative symmetric loads (simulate earthquake loads) . With the method of control variables, multiple finite element analysis models are set up and the focus is to explore the crack development, stress distribution and failure pattern in different stages. The compared conclusion shows that the shear failure of small joint core is the key to the whole joints core area for variable beam shaped.
